PANAMA NAVAL MANEUVERS
TO BE HELD IN FEBRUARY

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-An i'm
portant series of naval maneuvers,
designed to test certain theories re
gardng the defenses of the Panama
canal, has been arranged for next
February, and It Is hoped that Pres
ident Wilson will find 1t convenient
to be present, inasmuch as he was
prevented from visiting the canal
zone this autumn. The maneuverS
will be conducted by the ships Of the
Atlantic fleet, and will last a week.
Secretary Daniels of the navy de-
partment will witness them.
The battleshlps will meet off Guile
bra island. and steam from there to
Crlstobal. the Atlantic terminal OF
the canal from which point maneu'
vers will be directed. AS the result
of them, the naval experts will de-
terrnine definitely how near vessels
will be able to get to the canal by
night and also by day, without dis
covery. Observations will be made
from the fire control towers, 12S feet
above deck, and attempts to sketch
the locks and the Notifications will

SECRETARY OF LABOR IS
OPTIMISTIC OVER FUTURE
WILLIAM II. WILSON SAYS WON
DERFUL CHANGES ARE
TAKING PLACE.

PORTLAND, Nov. IA Won
derful change is taking place in this
country" said William b. Wilson, sec
retary of labor in President Wilson's
cabinet who visited for a few hours
in Portland yesterday.
1T is a change for the better. 1t
marks the end of the time when we
put the mere dollar above the man.
within the last five years | have
seen the employers of labor change
their attitude toward their employees
almost completely.
"Thev are displaying a disposition
now to give them more nearly what
they produce.
The eight-hour day, workmeni
compensation employers liability and
the minimum wage laws are evidences
of this change. These laws them
selves are not causing the change. 1t
is the other way about. rather. The
change is forcing the enactment OF
. these laws"
Secretary Wilson is a practical op'
timist. He faces squarely the fact
that industrial conditions in the past
freouentlv have deprived working
men of Just share of their earn
ings and of the right to live comfort
ahlv. but he reviews his own expert
ence of 81 years as a miner in the
coal fields of Pennsylvania as con
crete evidence of the fact that
change is taking place.

Ii has been apparent for some week $
that Judge Woods was to receive the
appointment to the judgeship made
vacant by the election of Nathan Goff

announcement WAS made semi officially
al the Department of Justice. and has
been taken as q matter of certainty.
The failure of Virginia to secure this
appointment, is Nariously accounted for.
one suggestion is that the number OF
men whose names were urged from this
state made against the selection of any
one OF them, while another and per-
laps more near the truth. is that while
many NirSinians want Federal places
there are few applicants from South

SOCIALISTS VOTE
TO RETURN TO WORK
They Believe Cause for Which
They Have Fought Has
Been Won.

Brussels, April GA plenary con-
Gress of the Socialist Labor party
voted to-day for an immediate re-
sumption of work by the strikers. the
vote being 4 TO l In favor of n peace
full settlement.
NJ. V8ndervelde, the Socialist leader,
carefully explained the important ad :
vantage gained by the vote In the
Chamber of Deputies which opened the
way for the revision of the constitution
desired by the workers.
Other leaders followed in the same
vein, urging peace and declaring that
the strike had accomplished all that
could he hoped for, and that confrma-
ton of their wishes now was only a
matter OF time.
The commission which will he
named to consider the reform OF the
electoral system" said NJ Destrec.
will be presided over by the spirit of
constitutional revision.
Opposition to settlement for the most
part came from the delegates OF
miners unions in the Borinage and
centre districts and the textile workers
not consider that enough had been
gained The congress, however, after
q five hours session, formally called
off the. strike at the same time con-
tinuing the special committee on the
general strike and universal suffrage.
tilted their various districts OF their
decision. There was no demonstration
Of any kind The action of the con-
gress seems to be generally accepted
with favor. but the miners may refuse
TO work for a time. 1t is expected that
the resumption will be quite general
tomorrow.
That this is the view held by the
authorities is shown by the fact that
the War Minister ordered the with
drawal OF the troops as soon as he
learned the strike had been abandoned.
There is general rejoicing in bust
ness and Industrial circles tonight,
particularly among those identified
with the exposition at Client. Arriv-
ais at the leading hotels in Brussels
have trcbicd since the Chambers ac-
ton on Tuesday rendered peace pos
sible.
The extra parliamentary commission
on electoral reforms, it is announced.
will be nominated next week. 1t will
consist of twenty -one members, drawn
from political, university and sociolog
zeal circlcs
