PLAN ARBITRATION CONGRESS.
Bill offered in Both Houses Affects
ROOSeveIt Foundation.

Senator Daniel and Representative
Bartholdt yesterday introduced in the
Senate and the House. respectively, a bill
proposing to amend the act relating to the
Industrial Peace Foundation, which was
approved March 2. 1907.
The Industrial Peace Foundation was
created by President Roosevelt with the
Nobel peace prize. amounting to $4,000.
which was awarded 10 him last year.
The amendment proposes that it shall
be the duty Of the trustees Of the Foun-
datiOn to invest and reinvest the fund.
and to receive additions thereto in the
form Of gifts and bequests, and to pay
over the income received to sixteen per
sons. to be designated as the Industrial
Peace Committee, and to include the
seven trustees OF the fund and nine other
persons, to be appointed by the trustees.
including three representatives of labor.
three OF capital. and three Of the people
at large.
This committee Is to arrange for such
meetings as 1t may deem advisable be-
tween representatives OF capital and OF
labor. to discuss industrial problems. and
TO take such action as may be considered
as making for a better understanding be-
tween employers and employees. The COM
mittee is also to take such steps during
industrial crises as in it's opinion may be
most likely to promote the purposes OF
the FOundatiOn-peace between capital
and labor
The meetings. or conventions, author
lied by the bill are to be held in Wash
ington, the home OF the Roosevelt Foun-
dation.
