The Labor Problem

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s.-Co6perat-
ing with the Council Of National De-
fence, a committee Of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States has is
sued bulletin for the purpose Of in
forming business men of the country
Of the declared policy of the govern
ment with regard to labor matters in
connection with the war. The bulletin
is the result Of personal Investigations
by Waddll Catchings, chairman Of the
committee.
After reviewing previous statements
of the Secretary of Labor on the rela-
tions between capital and labor, par
ticularly during the war. the bulletin
says:
There Is no doubt that many per
sons in the government to-day believe
that it is important in connection with
the prosecution of the war that labor
should become organized and be dealt
with by the employer and the govern
ment through these organizations. The
James Thomas and Charles W. Bower
man, who were sent over from England
BY LLOYD George TO advise this country
as TO what had been done in England in
connection with labor problems. was
that the English government through
the war had recognized the Importance
OF dealing with labor through labor or
PLANTATIONS, having encouraged the fur
Their organization of labor and dealt
with organized labor on all problems
which affect labor. In England labor
has been largely unorgsnized for some
years.
"On the other hand, many persons
here emphasize that conditions in this
country are essentially different from
England and that in this instance, as
in others, English experience will be
most helpful to US IL used with dis
erection.
"All agree that industrial peace
should be promoted during these times
of concentrated national energy. As
indicated above, the spokesman for the
government has taken the position that
Industrial peace will be promoted by
continuing the status existing when
tho war began so far as standards OF
hours and recognition Of the union are
concerned wherever strikes are neces-
sary TO secure changes in such condi-
tions. But the Secretary of Labor has
expressed his personal opinion that the
peaceful organization Of unions may
go on

Cotton

Thar. wa, continued covering In the
cotton market yesterday, with DeceH.,,
Der contracts selling up TO 2Z.4i ana
January to 22.43, or about q cent
pound above the low level of Monday
Bearish sentiment was still in evil
dence around the ring and found re-
Election in a late forenoon setback, put
later covering was stimulated by re-
vival of peace talk, and active months
sold 80 to 40 points net higher. Inc
close was several points off from the
best under realizing, but the tone was
steady at a net advance of 26 to u
points. l.
The market opened steady at de-
cline of point to an advance OF 10
points, and active months sold Is to -
points net higher during the early
trading. A private crop report making
the condition 68.S and indicating de-
terioration of 39 per cent for the
month may have contributed TO this
advance, but offerings increased on prl-
vate reports Of showers at one or two
points in the Southwest and another
private report making the condition
70.l and the deterioration only "a per
cent for the month. This report was
more in line with local opinion as to
the progress of the crop during Au-
gust. There probably was some fresh
selling as we'll as realizing by recent
BUYERS for a turn. The market soon
steadied as prices approached the clos.
ing price Of yesterday. however, and
there was q sharp advance during the
afternoon.
Some Southern hedge selling was re-
ported here during the morning, but
pressure of that sort seemed to be very
little in evidence during the afternoon,
when there was a little buying from
trade sources. Further scattering re-
ports were received from the South
west that farmers were hauling their
cotton back from market rather than
sell at the decline, but the advance was
most generally attributed to the dis
position to even up short contracts
before the publication of the govern
ment's crop report on Friday. Peace
talk was much in evidence in the late
trading, and probably increased the
tendency TO cover following the big de-
cline of the last two or three weeks.
Exports for the day were 1881 bales,
making 100000 so far this season,
against 352,565 last year. Southern
spot markets were 25 points lower to
Is points higher, most Of them being
unchanged.

Cottonseed Oil Futures.-The market was
less active yesterday but showed considerable
sseadiness with the close 70 II points net
higher. Increased crude offerings were az
prices considerably above the views OF
buyers. The strength Of lard and cotton
had an influence on the demand here. and
some stress also laid on rumors from
Washington that efforts were being made
10 increase the use Of cottonseed oil a
substitute for other food products. Total
sales were 10000 barrels.
