DISCUSSED LABOR.
President and Members of Cabinet
Review Labor Conditions--Meat
Strike Not Considered.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
Washington, July 30.-Labor condi
tons generally throughout the coun-
try were the subject of a conference
which the president held ut the White
House today with Attorney General
Moody, Secretary Metcalf of the de
partmcnt of commerce and Commits
sioner OF Labor Wright.
The conference was of consider
able Importance to the administration
and to labor generally.
Soon after the conference began the
presidents attention was called to the
fact that a report had already been
sent out OF Washington stating the
conference was called to consider the
Chicago strike Promptly the presi-
dent authorized the announcement
that the Chicago strike would not be
discussed at the conference and it
was not, according TO statements of
those present.
Regarding strikes in various perts
OF the country, the president and his
advisers agreed that at no point had
any Of these passed beyond the scope
of local treatment. nor was the adj
minisTation called upon at this time
to take action.
AS for the pending meat strike, al.
though II was not specifically dis
cussed at the conference, 1t can be
stated that the administration does
not consider that national emer
ghcy has been precipitate1 as was
the case in the coal strike. Until such
emergency has been created there
will be no official consideration of it
by the administration.
