ITALIANS AND AUSTR|ANS IN =
DESPERATE FIGHT FOR SUNNI I

LONDON, Sept. 6,-The Italian
troops, fighting stubbornly for
Monte San Gabrielle, on the lsonso
front, have several times captured
the summit, only to be thrown
back again, according to- kilograms
from Austrian headquarters, says
the Central News Amsterdam cor
respondent. The Italians are con-
tinuing their attack upon the
mountain.
The Italian commander-ln-chief,
cenera1 Cadorna, continues his
reticence concerning the opera
tions he has in view against the
Austrians, his latest communica-
ton merely announcing the contln-
uation of the heavy fighting north
east of Gorilla and the repulse on
the Carson Plateau, south Of the
Brestovizza Valley, OF strong
Austrian counter-attacks. From an
Austrian war office statement,
however, the situation regarding
Monte San Gabrielle, which was
reported unoficially "Wednesday
to have been taken by the Italians,
has been clarified. This eminence,
the last point in the Austrian line
dominating Gorilla, did fall into
the hands cf the Italians, but the
Austrians, in violent counter-at-
tacks, reoccupied it. Several
times since the position mas
chaned hands. and at last accounts
the Austrians were still in pos
session, but with the Italians
fighting valantly to take it.
On the Carso Plateau, south or
the Brestovizza Valley, where the
Bavarian troops appealed for by
the Austrians doubtless have re-
inforced the Austrian line, coun-
ter-attacks Of great strength have
been thrown, but unsuccessfullE,
against the Italian front. Italian
airmen have effectively bombed
Harmada Heights. the key TO Trl-
est, which is in the nands Of the
Austrians.
The western front in France
and Belgium remains virtually
quiet, except for artillery duels
on numerous sectors, trench raid
ing operations. aerial raids and
fights in the air between oppos-
ing aviators.
A renewal Of activity on the
Macedonian front is recorded in
the latest French official communi-
cation, but this also is being car
ried out to a large extent by the
artillery. The duels are particu-
larly spirited on both sides Of the
Vardar river, where the British
violently bombed enemy works.

SEEK AGREEMENT
OF WORKERS and
THEIR employees
For Period Of War to Prevent
Disastrous Strikes
or Lockouts.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-Manufac-
turers' representatives proposed to the
council of national defense today a
Joint agreement between employers
and employees for the period of the war
to prevent strikes and lock-outs, COM
pei maintenance of prevailing open or
closed union shop conditions and es-
tablish u board for compulsory arbi-
tration Of labor disputes directly con.
cerning war production.
4 request that the council call an
early conference of representative ma
! tional and international officers OF
American trade unions to agree 10 the
proposals was taken under considera-
/ ton.
i Nearly $50 members OF the national
industrial conference board, which
represents sixteen manufacturers as
sociations and more than $4,000 manu-
| facturers, presented personally to the
council and its advisory commission a
statement recommending that the
councils policy of discouraging
changes of labor standards during the
war be applied as follows:
The Proposal.
applied to existing statutory
regulations intended to promote
safety and health it shall be
agreed that for the period OF the
war there shall be no suspension
or modification OF such provision
except upon recommendation OF
the council of national defense,
after due investigation by its
agencies, and when, in its judg-
ment, required by the exigencies
of war.
Applied to wages, demands
shall be tested by the prevailing
local standard of the establish
ment In effect at the beginning OF
the war, with such modification
as may be shown to be necessary
to meet any demonstrated advance
in the cost OF living.
Applied to hours. the standard
shall be those established by stat
ute or prevailing in the establish
ment at the beginning Of the war,
subject 10 change only when IN
the opinion of the council OF de-
fense 1t is necessary to meet the
requirements of the government.
Applied to what are commonly
known AS open or closed shop
conditions, it shall be understood
and agreed that every employer
! entering the period of the war
| with union shop shall not by
lockout or other means under
take TO alter such conditions for
duration of the war, nor shall any
combination of worbmen under
take during the like period TO
close an open shop"
TO settle the major labor disputes
in war industries, the manufacturers
recommended the creation Of a board
of employers. employees and govern
ment representatives with authority
to render decisions binding on all
parties, and with full power to Gre
ate Ill machinery necessary TO execute
its functions"
Some of the delegates explained In
formally today that the feeling Is
growing among manufacturers that
labor bodies are not abiding by the
recommendation made by Samuel
Gompers. president OF the American
Federation Of Labor. as a member OF
the defense councils advisory COM
mission. that unions shall not insist
on changing labor standards during
the war.

THE YELLOW PRESS

An explosion occurred aboard an oil
tanker at Richmond, Cal. early Tues.
day morning. Instantly the yellow
press leaped TO the conclusion that a
bomb had been placed aboard and
worked into the account of the acct
dent all of the sinister innuendo pos
sible.
Such handling" OF the news, says
the Tacoma (Wash) Daily News, has
but one purpose-to produce and for.
ward hysteria; 10 arouse hatr d; to
stimulate resentment; to incite to riot
and reprisaI.
II is not uncommon for explosions
TO occur on oilcarrying vessels-par.
ticularly when those vessels are EN-.
PITY or nearly so. Oil contains much
gas. When the vessel is full this
gas is drawn off through the vents
AS the hold of the ship empties, tho
gases accumulate and become danger
Gus. Great caution is necessary t.
prevent ignition and explosion.
Thr Associated Press workers, fol
the most part, are men who know
these things. The Associated Press
reporters did not become hystcria
when they learned that an explosion
had taken place. They investigated
! They learned that the explosion wa
due to natural causes and accidental
have been done, with mere chron
telling of the fact. They did not be
come yellow and attribute the acct
dent to German influence or to bombs
