RECOGNIZING LABOR.
Sargent's Successor To Be Chosen
Soon-Secretary Strauss Work.
From The Tribune Bureau. !


Washington. Nov. S.-Secretary Straus announced
to-day that the selection of a successor to Frank
T Sargent, Commissioner General of Immigration
would be considered by President Roosevelt and
himself within the next few weeks and he
pressed the hope that competent and representa-
tive labor man would be chosen. This. he believes,
comedies with the Presidents preference and there
seems be little doubt that another representative
of labor will added the administration officials.
Secretary Straus is greatly pleased with the
progress that is being made with the national
Council Of Commerce, which was founded by him
last spring Fifty of the largest cities already
represented in this body. and the membership is
being daily augmented by new organizations of
business The Secretary said to-day that he
planning meeting to be held IN Washington
in short time for the purpose of efecting a per
manent organization, electing officers and begin
ming active work The main object Of the council
will be to insure cooperation between the various
departments of the government dealing with com
merce and the commercial bodies not only in this
country. but abroad.
The departments which will join in this CO.
operation said the Secretary, ARE the depart
of State. of Agriculture, of the Interior and
the Treasury Studies will be made of commercial
conditions both at home and abroad, govern
mental agencies will be established the benefit
OF commerce. but at the same time, and equally,
the benefit OF labor. In great country such as ours
labor is often drug on the market in some sec
lions in great demand in Others and the results
already attained from q careful study Of the labor
conditions have resulted in great benefits. The com
mercial interests of the United States will be
fully watched from on, they nave been for
time past especially in Great Britain France
and Germany. One Of the experts of the depart
ment has just returned from abroad where he
studied the relationship between the foreign gov
ernments and commercial bodies I expect great
results TO accrue from his report
The Secretary is also giving attention to the new
division of information and distribution, and he
predicts that this bureau will be one Of the most
effective implements in equaIizing the labor mar
ket and maintaining a equilibrium between the
demand and the supply. He believes commerce and
labor are so intimately connected that what good
for is good for the other and this is TO be his
policy in the future. it has been IL the past
