LABOR LEADERS
Anxious to Learn What Roosevelt
Will Do

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-Governor-eleci
Roosevelt has had IA conference with severa
labor officials and other men interested in
social and economic problems. There were
present Henry White, general secretary OF
the United GaYment Workers of America
VIM. p. Derfinger, of Typographical Union
No. 6; Henry Weisman, ex-secretary of the
international Bakers Union; James Reyn
olds general secretary of the University
settlement; George Gunton, editor of a, peri
odical devoted to economic questions, and
others.
Colonel Roosevelt expressed the opinion
that it will be best to enforce the existing
statutes affecting the labor problem rather
than to make new statutes. He agreed with
his visitors that the Factory Inspection De
partment should be the chief means of im
proving the workshop conditions in the
matter of sanitation and child labor.
The suggestion was made by one of the
conferees that the inspection of scaffolding
should be taken from the police and given
to the State Factory Inspection Depart
ment. The Governor-elects attention was
called to the fact that the ten-hour law for
surface street railways is almost totally ig
nored. Colonel Roosevelt expressed himself
forcibly on this subject and favorably re-
ceived the suggestion that this law should
be enforced by the State Factory Inspection
Department.
1t was suggested that the factory inspec
tion law be so amended that all shops must
obtain a permit or license before they can
become "scene of industry" Such a law
is said to be in successful operation in
Massachusetts. 1t was argued that such a
law will enable the inspection department
to more readily supervise workshops.
Colonel Roosevelt assured the labor Off
cials that he would enforce every statute or
the labor question.
