date now agreed upon is November 10.
There is every probability, it is also an
nouneed, that the board will visit only
the capital cities of the several southern
states. This programme would preclude
a visit of the board to Birmingham. AS
heretofore reported, Secretary McAdoo
sometime ago promised Senator's Bank
head and Underwood to recommend to
the board that it visit Birmingham. The
secretary of the board stated today,
however that up to the present time
his file contains no such recommendation.

Admission of Defeat When
Conference Is Called to
Discuss Matter

In it's report of the meeting the gen.
eral strike committee said
1.-THE general committee still believes In
the sincerity of the assurances given by
representatives of important unions. II
is our opinion that the rank and file OF
labor is in full sympathy with the street
car men in their fight to maintain their
rights under the agreement of August
and 7, underwritten by the mayor and
the chairman of the public service COM
mittee, which if acted up to by the trac-
zion. companies of New York, would have
prevented the strike and general indus
trial unrest.
Organized labor did want to help the
street car men provided definite plan
had been decided and agreed upon.
The report declared the introduction OF
individual contracts by the Interborougf
Rapid Transit company was an attack
upon trade unionism.
Police headquarters announced that 9
canvass made by policemen showed that
only 40S men had responded to the cal
for general strike.
More than 100000 members of the United
Hebrews trades returned to work after
their three-day holiday, as did 300 brew
cry workmen.
