'RELATIONS OF CAPITAL
., AND LABOR DISCUSSED
Would Have Employer and
Employe Cooperate as if
in Partnership.
By Robert J. Bender.
Shadow Lawn, Long Branch. N. J
Sept. 23. (U. P.) Addressing sev
eral thousand persons who made a
pilgrimage to his summer home, Presi
dent Wilson this afternoon spoke for
the first time on the campaign Issues
raised by tha Republican nominee,
Charles Evans ' HughV? He dwelt
chiefly on the buslnesirtssues. Prior
to speaking, the president had a long
conference with Attorney-Ueneral
. Gregory.
When the president appeared on the
porch of his home at 3: lb o ciock. ne
' was enthusiastically applauded. On
tht porch with him were Postmaster
General Burleson, Attorney uenerai
Gregory, Former Ambassador to Tur
key Henry Morgenthau, Jacofe Schlff,
Judge John N. Westcott. W. Parkhurst
Runyon and scores of other prominent
Democrats.
. " Amerlea." said the president, "has
devoted Itself to the energies and
achievements of peace. Business has
taken a leading part In this.
"Vision Has Com to Business."
"A vision now has come to busines.
There never was a time when the pulse
of success beat, so strongly In the veins
of business as It does today. America
ha not played a proportionate Part in
the trade of the world, and In tlaae to
come, chiefly because America Is bo,ut
to release her energies. American busi
ness is to enter a new and greater field
than ever before.
"The chief cloud on the horizon is
the unsatisfactory relations between
capital "andMabor, There only, pn
way in which relations can. he made
satisfactory. That Is to make a gen
eral partnership of business to make
for business success. Bo long as labor
and capital are not togetheT American
business is held back. We are too
much under the guidance ef the law
yer. He has regarded the relations
between capital and labor as merely
contractual. But there Is a heart be
neath the workers' coat. Labor Is not
a commodity. It Is a form of coopera
tion. If I can make a man believe In
mie I can get ten times as much as
If he knew I wore antagonistic.
Partnership Is Suggested.
"The Inborlng man should be a part
ner of his employer. If the heart is
not In work, nothing Is In It.
"I have Just passed through a most
distressing experience. I tried to ad
Just differences befcween railroads and
employ-on. I found suspicion or dis
trust on the part of each for the other
and while arbitration was being dis
cussed between ub had this thought:
"Arbitration Is an alternate of war
an Implement for use between hostile
forces. Therefore, It came upon me
that the real problem of capital and
labor was to bring both sides to be
lieve In each other.
"This thing had to be done when It
was done," the president went on in
discussing his entire course in the con
troversy including laying before con
gress the legislation lie recommended,
nana Western Campaign.
Plans for President Wilson's inva
sion of the west began to take defi
nite shape today. It was announced
that he will speak at Omaha on Oc
tober 5 and at Indianapolis October 12.
The Omaha invitation was extendud
by the Nebraska Historical society, th
semi-centennial celebration committee,
the Ak-Sar-Ben and the Omaha Com
mercial club, and these organisations
will unite in entertaining the president.
The speech In Indianapolis will be de
livered on Centennial highway.
Both addresses are the result of In
vitations from non-political organiza
tions. Tha president does not wish it
; understood that the trips are In the
; nature of a tour of the central west,
but nevertheless it probably will be
necessary for him to make sevei-al
brief addresses from the rear platform
of his train en route. Many towns
' and cities have asked to be included
In these stops, and party leaders are
urging the president to agree to, at
least a few talks.
Other invitations are 'being consid
ered, and there will be other trips be-
- aides those how scheduled.

TREIO'S FAILURE TO
Plans of Mexican-American
Peace Conference May Be
Affected.
Rv Carl D. Groat-
New London, Conn., Sept. 23. (U.
P.) Carranza's apparent failure to
direct an effective pui ult of the Vil
lista forces that attacked Chihuahua
City may radically affect the tentative
plans of the Mexican-American peace
conference for a border patrol.
The commissioners had practically
completed their work on a plan for
border patrol when the Villtstas
struck. It called for cooperation by
Mexican troops with Genera; Per
shing's forces in patrol ing the borJer
and was about ready for submission
to Washington and Mexico City.
The Villa raid Itself did not alter
the plans of the conference, since the
VllliMtas were beaten off with heavy
losses, according to Carranzistas re
ports. But the American commis
sioners aid not believe that General
Trevino. the Carranza commander at
Chihuahua would immediately start
In vigorous pursuit of Villa forces
and disperse the bandits.
There has been no indication that
this has been done.
Trevlno's failure to take the aggres
sive against the bandits has again

Refreshed from a night's rest off th
train. Governor Hughes started his
wind-up of the Indiana campaign to
day with a voice considerably clearer
than yesterday and with the firm con
viction that Indiana's 15 votes will be
.'n the Republican column In Novem

worked harder to obtain these 15. To
day was a comparatively easy schede
ule for the nominee only seven
speeches during the -ntlre day and to
a man who. like Hughes, has been ad
dressing audiences almost every 15
minutes as he did yesterday and tho
day before, this was easy.
Nowhere In his campaign has the
candidate been greeted by such crowds
as have cheered his progress through
Indiana. No city which he has visited
since he became a candidate has turned
out with such tremendous welcome as
did South Bend last night. Tired out
from the exertions of the day, bis
vocal chords merely frayed strings,
the warmth pf this greeting led him to
disobey his physician's warning and
to speak Just a few words to the 16.-
