plenty of time to "cool off."

The routine yarn concerning the pre

began to pile Into the arena Immediately
after It was opened and that section was
nearly' filled by 8 :30 p. m. The reserved

largely because they preferred the cool

F0HIEMPLE
Formal laying of the cornerstone

but through untoward circumstances
they failed of maturity: but we are now

of our hopes."
He then gave a history of the various
movements toward securing a permanent

Employer of
Greed Always
Has Problem,
Says Roosevelt
New York. Sept. 6. (L N. S.)
The domineering type of employer
who persistently tries to exploit his
workmen always will have a "labor
problem" on his hands, Franklin D.
Roosevelt. Democratic candidate for
vice president, told New York navy
yard workers in a Labor day ad
dress in Brooklyn today.
"The employer who Insists on having
his own way, right or wrong, who tries
enly to get the most service for the least
money, will always find a labor problem
on his hands," Roosevelt said. "But
I think that the man who tries to be fair
and who is willing to talk the matter
over when any difference arises, can
look, as I look, with considerable amass
ment upon those who hold that the em
ployer and employe must necessarily
stand in a etate of constant conflict and
perpetual misunderstanding.
Roosevelt said that his seven years'
experience with American navy yard
workers convinced him. as assistant sec
retary of the navy, that employes al
ways were willing to be fair and square
and that "frankness and Justice were
all that were necessary to gain coop
eration between capital and labor.' !
ISSUE ONCE MORE
Notwithstanding a ruling by J. O.
Bailey, assistant state attorney gen
eral, regarding the powers of the
public service commission in fixing
charges against the Portland Rail
way, Light & Power company, there
Is-a possibility tlat an initiative pe
tition will be Immediately circulated
to refer t-gain to the voters the mat
ter of relieving the company from
"excessive" charges.
Such is the "hope" of F. D. B rode rick,
who was one of several who requested
the commission to reopen the P. R., L. St
P. Co. case. Broderick, however, care
fully qualified his enthusiasm as a
"hope," and then almost blighted it with
the statement that the probability of
success in referring the matter back to
the people Is very dim.
Some time Tuesday, Broderick an
nounced, he, together wtth Charles O.
Benson, legal adviser to the petitioners.
and B. H. Fisher and V. Chadek, other
petitioners, will hold a private confer
ence 'to determine upon further steps In
their effort to get a reconsideration of
the carfare case.
It Is the ambition of the petitioners.
Broderick declared Monday, to put- the
question squarely up to the voters
through an Initiative petition and to
permit the voters again to determine
whether they choose to relieve the street
car company of certain of Its burdens
or to continue paying 8-cent fares.
Assistant Attorney General Bailey had
advised the petitioners that the public
serviee commission can, if It chooses, re
open the else regardless of the sentiment
of voters as expressed at the last elec
tion, for It Is the province of the com
mission to determine what charges are
reasonable and What otherwise in con
nection with the car company's business
and its relations with the city and stale
Although no decision regarding the
circulation of initiative petitions will
be made until the private confer
ence Is held Tuesday, it is said that
such a petition must be circulated lat
once and must gain 6000 names very
soon In order to be assured a ballot
place.
