The call was sent out by President Samuel Gompers. Secretary Morrison, in a statement, aid that the conference Is one of everal similar gatherings called by the American Federation of Labor during its history to consider unusual conditions. Concerning the Intention to rive attention to attacks on trade Unionism, he said: "These attacks Include attempts to establish the anti-union shop, wage reductions, anti-strike laws, compul sory arbitration, labor Injunctions nd a publicity that would mold the public mind to accept these backward steps. "I believe labor will formulate a plan to expose the pretense of men who are only Interested In cheap labor and a continuance of their profiteering: policy. The trade union movement is alert to " the forces against it, and proposes to act vigor ously and courageously. Our oppon ents are mistaken if they imagine they have made the slightest progress In alarming the workers, or that they will humbly accept a policy of re action, i "The conference will consider the publicity and other methods of our opponents, and it is quite possible that labor will launch an offensive movement against those who imagine they control practically every avenue of publicity."

EMIGRATION IX 1020 DOUBLE THAT OF 1019. Best Classes Declared Going to Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and United States. BERLIN, Jar.. 16. Emigration to Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and the United States during the. first three quarters of 1920 reached 6010, of whom only a very few went to the United States. This is approximately twice the number of - emigrants in 1919, but a bare fraction of the num ber predicted. Estimates were still being made that 6,000,000 Germans are preparing to depart, dependent, however, on their raising the money for trans portation. Most of the emigrants. It was reported, will head for Brazil, which is offering inducements. Of ficial circles apparently were much exercised over the class of persons leaving the country. The. head of the imperial office said: "Those leaving are from our best class; the bolshevists, very poor and ultra-radical, are remaining. Eco nomic conditions are forcing this sit uation. Immigration officials have begun preparing a new law in response to demands for the regulation of the outgoing tide, which. Dr. Max Hirsch believes, "eventually will result in a weakened, probably an anaemic Ger man race and impaired German culture." State Bank of Talent Elects. ASHLAND, Or., Jan. 16. (Special.)

(Former member of the British war eab- inet and delegate to the peace con ference at Paris.) (Copyright, 1921. by The Oregonlan.) LONDON, Jan. 16. (Special Cable.) America has a great opportunity for the time is propitious for a cour ageous lead in lessened armament spending. The British naval pro gramme is In abeyance; Japan has asked a halt; d'Annunzio's legion naires have been blown out of Fiume by a blast of public impatience; the French militarists have been defeated In the chamber of deputies, and above all, peoples everywhere are sick of war. Should America point the way, the league of nations would assuredly follow her lead In this di rection for the assembly, with Anglo Japanese concurrence, has declared In favor of the limitations of armaments. Viscount Grey is one of the safest and sanest men and he, perhaps more than any other man In Great Britain, accurately senses the present needs. Worthy, indeed, of the man was h speech in Glasgow the other day, when he said that armaments still endangered the peace of the world, and he urged that their growth be carefully watched, and if possible, arrested so that no country might again force? the killing pace. He com mented upon the ghastly precedent of victorious Germany forcing the Franco-Russian alliance by forming the triple combination of Germany, Austria and Italy, and he warned against the possibilities of allied ex- clusiveness now that we are in the position Germany held 50 years ago. Will these wise words be heeded? To me, it seems that the time has come. not only to check the growth but concurrently lessen all firearms, yet the only relief is in the reduction of expenditures and here is America's opportunity for leadership. League Is Strengthened. The league of nations has been strengthened by the first plenary meeting. Although obeying instruc tions, the Argentine delegates' with drawal when their amendments were not accepted, concerned nobody seri ously. Therefore the Argentine presi dent is probably sorry now that he forced his country briefly Into un desired prominence. The league may modify the covenant to get the co operation of all nations, but it won't be bullied. It has ccme to stay and has the backing of peoples who will finally determine the attitude of poli ticians and presidents. The new Cunard line stock issue of four million sterling (normally about 20,000,000) to complete Its shipbuild ing programme, shows notable enter prise and confidence. It is a cheering lining to the somber cloud of de pression hanging over the industrial world. , Trade Being: Arranged. But a return to prosperity depends upon the re-establishment of credit of countries desolated by the war so they may again buy from countries like America, where productive ca pacity has been only slightly im paired. We are all in the same boat and must pull together if we desire to surmount commercial depression. unemployment and class conflict. It is also satisfactory to note that the financial economic organization grow ing out of the recent Brussels confer ence is now arranging credits for the rjoorer countries. The conference for arranging trade between Great Britain and Russia still hangs fire. Krassin has gone home. Meantime, despite a general desire for resumption, trade is at a stand still.
