Does Net Consider Compulsory Ar

Secretary Of Commerce and Labor
straus yesterday had nothing to say
concerning the status Of the telegraphers
strike but he did express himself plainly
as not considering compulsory arbitration
the solution Of difficulties between capi-
tai and labor.
The telegraphers' strike began while

very little about it, said Mr. Straus,
and consequently 1 can say nothing
about it,"
Concerning the general trend toward
arbitration on the part of both capital
and labor, Mr.. Straus declined to discuss
the subject generally. and took no oppor-
tunity TO air his views.
DO you consider compulsory arbitra-
' tiOn the solution of the industrial situa-
ton? he was asked.
NO" replied the Secretary. who be-
Heves that different cases require differ
eut remedies. and that there is no hard
and fast rule by which all differences
that arise between capital and labor can
be adjUdicated.
Have Far-FeHching Eject.
THE Importance OF establishing good
relations between capital and labor" he
said, lis recognized in ali civilized lands.
Economic conditions within a country.
especially such as arise between indus
trial forces. have a far-rcachiug effect,
and are often the cause of embarrassing
International relations.
More than one-half the troubles in this
world arise from MISUNDERSTANDING. Es-
pecially is that true when classes are CON
cened such as disturbances growing out
Of dlsagreemeuts between employers and
wage earners. No one has recognized the
Importance Of promoting industrial peace,
both with view of preserving continued
peace at home and avoiding conflicts
abroad. better than President Roosevelt.
Who devoted the worlds peace prize
awarded him last year, for the promotion
Of Industrial peace"

Secretary Straus. at Sagamore HlH
Tuesday, after a conference with the
President. said that he believed the trou-
bic between japanese and Americans on
the Pacific Coast was more economic than
racial. but he denied yesterday that there
is & japanese situation. He did not say
whether or not the foundation for the
promotion OF industrial peace, which the
peace prize made possible. would be COM

the question.
'I did not go to the Coast to study the
japanese question" said the Secretary,
'and did not study it."
