ORGANIZED LABOR QUITS
Continued From First Page.)
small majority" of the members of
the conference had voted against the
collective bargaining resolution, while
about 50 favored it. Dr. Charles W.
Eliot of the public group, said this
inconsistency was due to the "impos
sible rules" under which the conven
tion worked.
Harry A. Wheeler, chairman of the
employers' group, in announcing the
intention of his group to remain here
for further work, said capital repre
sentatives would not accept responsi
bility for breaking up the conference.
He declared they had worked sincere
ly for what they considered just prin
ciples and that they were willing to
stand on the record of the conference.
In a last effort to prevent the dis
solution of the national industrial
conference. Chairman , Lane today
read to toe delegates the letter, die
tated by President Wilson yesterday
from his sick bed and urging the Ira
perative necessity for some action by
the conference to insure industrial
peace during the reconstruction period.
The president said the public ex
pected the conference to stay to
gether until the way was found to the
establishment of a surer and heartier
co-operation between all the elements
engaged in industry or until it was
revealed that the "men who work and
the men who manage American in
dustry are so- set upon divergent paths
that all efforts at co-operation is
doomed to failure."
No Blame Is Assessed.
The president's message follows:
"To the ladies and gentlemen of the
Industrial conference: I am advised
by your chairman that you have come
to a situation which appears to
threaten the life of your conference
and because of that I am presuming
to address a word of very solemn ap
peal to you as Americans. It is not
for me to assess the blame for the
present condition. I do not speak in
a spirit of criticism of any individual
or of any group. But having called
this conference, I feel that my tem
porary indisposition should not bar
the way to a frank expression of the
seriousness of the position In which
this country will be placed should
you adjourn without having convinced
the American people that you had ex
hausted your resourcefulness and your
patience in an effort to come to some
common agreement.
"At a time when the nations of t
world are endeavoring to find a way
of avoiding International war, are we
to confess that there is no method to
be found for carrying on Industry ex
cept in the spirit and with the very
method of war? Must suspicion and
hatred and force rule us In civil life?
Are our industrial leaders and our
industrial workers to live together
without faith in each other, constant
ly struggling for advantage Over each
other, doing naught but what is com
pelled? "
Wilson Stfll Confident.
: My friends, this would be an in
tolerable outlook, a. prospect un
worthy of the large things done by
this people In the mastering of this
continent indeed. It would be an in
vitation to national disaster. From
such a possibility my mind turns
away, for my confidence is abiding
that in this land we have 1 turned how
to accept the general judgment upon
matters that affect the public weal.
And this is the very heart .and soul
of democracy.,
"It is my understanding that you
have divided upon one portion only of
a possible large programme which has
not fully-been developed. Bef or, a
severance is - effected, based, upon
present differences, -I ' believe you
should stand together for the devel
opment of that full programme Vouch
ing the many questions within th
broad scope of your investigations. It
was in my mind when this conference
was called that you would concern
yourselves with the discovery Of
those methods by which a measurable
co-operation within industry may be
secured and if new machinery needs
to be designed by which a minimum
of conflict between employers . and
employes may reasonably be hoped
for, that we shtfuld- make' alt ' effort
to secure its adoption.. . ; . .t
' Dlfferencee Are Inevitahle r-
"It, cannot be .expected that at eery
step all parties will agree upon, each
proposition or- method suggested:- It
is to be espectc-d, -however, that' as a
whole,. a plan or programme can be
agreed upon which will advance
further the . productive . -capacity Of
America,. through the establishment of
a surer and heartier co-operation be
tween all the elements engaged in
Industry. The ixibllc expects not less
than that you shall have that one end
in view and stay together until the
way is found leading to that end or
until it is revealed that the men who
work and the men who manage Amer
ican Industry are so set upon diver
gent paths that all effort of co-operation
is doomed to failure.
"I renew my appeal with full com
prehension of the almost incompar
able importance of your tasks to this
and to other peoples, and with full
faith in the high patriotism and good
faith of each other that you push
your task to a happy conclusion.
"WOODROW WILSON."
ATROCITY IS OENDUHCED
BANKERS HEAR PLEA FOR IN
DUSTRIAL DEMOCRACY.
Relation of Master and Servant No
Longer Tolerable, Says Ameri
can Federation Official.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. 22..The estab
lishment of an industrial democracy,
through collective action and by col
lective bargaining. Is tha intention of
labor, according -to an address pre
pared by Matthew Weill, vice-president
of the American Federation of
Labor, and read, before the conven
tion of the investment bankers' asso

"It is unfair and radically wrorrg
to permit the old order and relation
of master and servant to continue,"
said Mr. Woll's letter.. VThia return
must give way to the-more-humane
and modern relation of co-operators.
The employer cannot and must not be
permitted to eay to the workers in
the future as he has in the past:
'These are the standards: these are
the requirements which you are to'
observe if you are to have employ
ment with me. . If you do not like
these standards, : if you do not meet
these requirements, then go: I shall
have nothing to do with you.'
"To the workers this is industrial
autocracy of the same vicious form
as that formerly exercised by the
kaiser. This arbitrary and autocratic
rule by employers must be destroyed
end the idea of democracy must - be
put in its place.'
'The American Federation of La
bor," said Mr. Woll's letter, "is not
opposed to the organization of em
ployers. On the contrary, it favors
the organization of employers. In do-
ng so it likewise demands for the
wage earners that same right of or
ganization: that same privilege of
assisting and helping each other, in
determining the conduct of business."
Following a report, of the taxation
committee of the association, a reso
lution was adopted by the. convention
recommending that a non-partisan
body cordposed of representative men
be appointed forthwith by. the govern
ment to study the effect of war taxa
tion in its relation to business and to
report at the earliest, possible time Its
recommendations for simplifying and
readjusting the federal tax laws along
lines oi the least injustice and dis
crimination between different classes
of taxpayers, and for the encourage
ment of business development.

' The commission said the good faith
of ' Senator' Waeeon'a oharges was
open to question whenit was remem
bered that the senator was a "lobby
ist" in 1909. and It Charged that the

offices were entered "surreptitiously."
Senators Are Challenged.
Declaring that the charges of both
Senators Watson and Sherman had
been made in detail, the commission
declared it "challenges the proof, and
with the proof their source and the
means by which they were formu
lated." "Senator: Sherman has charged the
members of the federal trade commis
sion with what amount! to treason
and : conspiracy. . Senator Watson
charges the employes of the federal
trade commission with sedition and
anarchy. The commissioners have
stood many attacks, secret and pub
lic, but the commissioners feel that
they -would be derelict In their duty
If they should let pass unchallenged
the false, Outrageous and despicable
assault that has been made upon
members of Its staff, whose only of
fense Is that they have stood stead
fast in the performance of their duty,
under constant embarrassment, resist
ing cajoleries, offers of employment
and attempted seductions."

Reciting that some of the commis
sion's agents had been summoned . aa
witnesses In the case against the
packers which the department of jus
tice soon Is to present to a federal

charges were being discussed on the
floor of the senate. The Indiana sena
tor said .the information on which they
were based came "from inside the

Senator Kenyon. republican. Iowa,
said the commission never was at
tacked, "until it had nerve enough to
tell the people something about the
packers." while Senator Harris, demo,
crat, Georgia, vigorously defended the
commission. He said there might be
a fe wexceptions. but that as a whole
"there are no more -efficient -or hon

Charge Called Scandalous.
"The federal trade commission has
avoided giving Immunity to the pack
era by calling them as witnesses 'and

ceaselessly criticised; and now as the
witnesses of the government are
about to enter the grand-jury room
there is every effort to discredit
them. . ' -
"This attack upon the personal

of a piece with one of- the. series oi

the United States, the heading of
which was 'encouraging bolshevism.'

MURDER ENRICHES MAN
KILLING OF GOV. . STETJNEN
BERG OF IDAHO RECALLED.
Damlan Cardoner's Fortune Is
Founded on Grubstake GiTen to
Harry Orchard In 1898.
ALBUQUERQUE. N. M... Oct. 22. A
grubstake and murder figured in the
fortune of Damian Cardoner. whose
estate recently came before the Unit
ed States circuit court of appeals ot
California. It meant a million to Car
doner because Harry Orchard was
convicted of murder in 'the famous
Moytr-Hay wood-Pettlbone case which
arose over the killing of Governor
Frank Steunenberg of Idaho. And
Cardoner had nothing to do with the
murder case either.
It started back in 1898. when Or
chard "pawned" his Interest In the
Hercules mine for a grubstake. Car
doner advanced Orchard about .1000
worth of food, tools and clothing.
When Orchard was unable to make
payment, Cardoner received the 16th
Interest in the mine and from Its
dividends was enabled to forsake the
little country store he owned at
Burke, Idaho, and go to Spain where
he bought a flourspar mill and made
a million. He died in the Canary
Islands in February. 1915.
Mrs. Cardoner, who died at Albu
querque in October, 1918, sold the In
terest In the Hercules mine for $350.
000. In December, 1917, she brought
suit at Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, against
the purchasers, alleging that her
share In the mine was worth $1,500,
000. The court of appeals held that
the 8350,000 sale waa binding.
The money from the Cardoner es
tate goes to Mrs. Julio G. Pauehet,
Mrs. Cardoner's only daughter and
.wife of a director In the Banca Arnus,
Barcelona, Spain, and of Plerrier et
Cie Pas. A million on 'a grubstake.

SUPREMACY
Results of the International Typewriter Con
test to prove quality of machine and skill of the
operator, held at the Annual Business Show in
New York City Oct. 20th, 1919, have for the
Fourteenth time established the supremacy of
the Underwood Typewriter in Speed, Accuracy
and Durability.
Every year for thirteen consecutive years in
this contest the World's Champion has made his
or her record on an Underwood machine.
This, the fourteenth year and previous years,
the Underwood led because of its mechanical
superiority, which developed the necessary
speed and accuracy.
The Thousand Dollar Trophy Cup, the
championship prize, was awarded to the new
World's Champion Typist, William F. Oswald,
who wrote at the rate of 132 accurate words a
minute. The cup will continue in possession of
the Underwood Typewriter Company.
Best records are always Underwood records.
