WASHINGTON', May 13.-ilBqHliy into tho relations between capital and labor was contlnniMt tmlar lfar ('' federal industrial relations earn mis sion with William D. Ifnywoed, sire-ary-trcasurer of the Industrial Work ers of tho World, again on tins wit ness stand. Mr, Haywood told the eemMtotfeR of an Ideal era of freedom for whlek labor is striving, which be dMcrild ns n world In which oho nnlsn would control all means of production, la which there bo no "capital." Thl could bo brought about only by means of Implacable war between capital and labor, by means of a strike, confiscation of goods and production. ( cue nil Strike Soitglit Commissioner WeJastack contin ued his examination of Haywead and developed that when the general strike to wklck the I. W. W. teeka forward as a means of revolution izing society, bad taken plaee thra would be no government, stRtr national. "The workers Bf U6 .ntry," ilayweod said, "would be efjsaRHHxt' Into Industries Instead of cities sad' states. As a citizen of Industry every worker, man, woman ami chlbl. would have n vote in fixing the con ditions under which he would work. At present labor has practically no voice In the affairs of the country." Keep Plugging Along "Hut you can not change the whole world overnight," said Com missioner Welnstock. "What are you going to do in the meantime?" "It may not come for 100 years." replied Haywood. "Meantime w will keep plugging along with this class struggling, hope for the great chango tomorrow, but working fer It, even It it takes a century." Mrs. J. Dorden Harrlmaa asketl Haywood why, If he opposed war, he favored violent measures In labor disputes. "Tho working class is the only class entitled to any consideration," said tho witness, "and as 1 have said, I believe any tactics that will ac complish our purpose are right." Unemployment lrolkiH Questioned by Commissioner O'Conncll, Haywood jsaid that unem ployment was one of the most press ing causes of induMrial unrest nnd suggested Hint the government extend ils reclamation, river ami harbor itii pnivcmeut and other puhliV works in order to nffonl opportunity for em ployment. President Frank J. Goodiiow of Johns Hopkins university told the commission Hint tho lawyers and judges today were not generally qual- itied to consider economic and social questions uri-iug in labor litigation.
