our STRIKES CAUSE
TROUBLE IN RUSSIA
Are Used by German Agents
to Show American Labor
Is Against War
(By Robert j. Bender)
United Press Staff Correspondent

UNITED Press starr correspondent
Washington, Sept. l8.-President Will
son is taking measures to still labor dis
putes in this country and dissipate the
effect these troubles are having upon
Russia.
The United Press is able to state
semi-officially today that the president
is personally pressing for prompt ad,
justment Of the shipyards strikes OIL
the western coast and that he will soon
sanction despatch of a labor commission
to Russia to clarity THIS country at
titude toward the war.
Both steps were regarded necessary
because the labor unrest in the west is
being used, according to diplomatic re-
ports, to create dissatisfaction with the
war among laborers in Russia.
The labor delegation to be sent will
include representatives from different
unions-miners, munitions makers, etc,
Each class VIII go our among Russian
workers engaged in similar occupations
and spread the gospel of unanimity and
q common cause to fight the war to a
successful conclusion. All will work to
one purpose-correct the reports cir
culated in Russia that "the Unified
pNalN % DO NOlllbIl abN NAbG MI NOlh-
ing people would not be fighting the
government
The idea was favorably acted upon by
labor represented at the recent conven-
ton of the American Alliance for Labor
and Democracy at Minneapolis.
Mooney Case Used Too.
To discus this mission to Russia, Sam
uel Gompers, head of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor will see the president
late today.
The present impasse in the coast
strike situation is due to conflict be
tween the shipping board and the ship
yards wage adjustment board, the ship
ping board attempting to take solution
of the coast problem out of the hands
of the wage adjusters. This did not meet
with the. approval of labor men affect
ed.
But behind the general labor union
unrest in the west is seen a protest
by labor against the death sentence i'm
posed upon T. j. Mooney for the pre-
p%aredness day bomb outrage in San
Francisco.
1t may be stated positively that tho
government has found no evidence OF
Germany money in any of the disturb
ances-including the l. w. w. plots.
The Mooney Ease was used through.
out Russia by German p~ropagandists
who spread the report among workers
that "the United States is hanging so.
c~ialists, yet claiming to be a democ.
racy". An effort was made by the Root
commission to dissipate feeling aroused
by this propaganda but it was empha
sized upon return of the commission
that further work must be done-pre.
ferably b ylabor men of this country
actually sent to Russia.
Before the commission can go, how
ever, President Wilson is expectedM tC
take a definite stand on the ooney case,
Appeals are reaching him by thousands
for %clemency. There is doubt among Ia
borers as to Moneys guilt and they
say that the president, taking cogniz,
ance of this doubt, may accomplish a
two-fold benefit-do much to clear the
labor unrest in the west and effectively
squelch German propaganda bearing on
the case in Russia.

exalt that military caste and system
which is the historic enemy of person
al liberty. We make war in France that
we may not be compelled to do battle
here. Let Germany have Canada or Mex
leo, or even Cuba, and we would go
to our daily work like the pilgrim faith
crs, with our guns in our hands.
"You have asked me to say a word
about your duty as business men. Let.
me change that word from duty to OPP
portunity. If any American man, bust
ness man, farmer or official wants to
know his duty let him ask one of those
heroes of a new crusade. An appeal to
him will answe all doubts as to what
any of us should do.'
object of Meeting.
President Rhett of the chamber Of
commerce opened the session with an
explanation of its purposes. He said it
was called primarily that American
business have an opportunity of express
sing its sentiments with respect to the
war, and of declaring what it intends
to do in aiding to bring the war to a
successful conclusion.
The delegates, he said, represented
100000 individuals, firms and corpora
tions. He pleaded for a complete crush
ing of military power.
"War," declared George M. Rey-
rolds, president of the Continental and
Commercial National bank of Chicago
''is the most titanic business in the
world.
"Our role,' he said, "is merely that
CT private business assisting the pub
lie business of war. All banking ASKS
is federal cooperation, allowing the de-
gree of wan latitude to avoid cripplirg
industry. Only thus can the roll of kiH-
ed and wounded he minimized. Business
is hesitating because it does not know
the definite government war policy"
Pleads for Big Bushes.
He pleaded with the people to aban-
don their prejudice against big bust
ness, and asserted that no nation could
withstand the shocks of threats, "of
all manner Of regulations and of con
scription of property and income. He ur-
ged that partisan politics be stopped.
off it were not for the big business
organizations of transportation, mining
steel and lumber we would be at the
mercy of the enemy" he asserted. The
rise in prices and wages, he said, was
automatic, characteristic of every war.
"With government financing condi-
lions of money in the east he said
''thc government should equalize condi-
tons by distributing war orders to the
west"
Reynolds said he believed Prussian-
ism was making its last fight, and that
the war would be finished in much
less time than has been consumed thus
far.

Finishing with the Tigers, all that
remains for the Red Sox to do is beat
the White Sox, who viii pay their fin

There is no reason to suspect that
when this clash reaches the stage OF
