Gompers Tells Why He
Opposes Socialist Meet

New York, Aug. samuel Com
pers president of the American Fed
ertaion of Labor. issued a statement
here Saturday simplifying his reasons
for opposition to the proposed inter
national Socialist conference at Stock
holm.
The working people of the United
States" he said " are now doing all
within their power to help their coun-
try in its war against imperialism
and autocracy. The working people
Of England and France are doing the
same for their country. The working
people of Germany are doing all they
possibly can do to help Germany and
her Kaiser win the war. If Germany
does not win. as she Will not win, it
will be due to fault of the German
working people. 1t is therefore, in my
Judgment, impracticable and positive
ly injurious for any conference of rep
resentatives Of labor to take place in
which the representatives of all the
countries would he present. "

The foreign minister and the German
minister here had been discussing for the
past few days the question of the sinking
Of the Toro When It came to the final
point Germany. it began to appear, was
not willing to give complete satisfa ction
and pledge herself to respect Argentine
vessels in the future.

AWAIT M|CHAEL|S'
CABINET LIST

Berlin, Aug. 4-(via London, Aug. 81
Since Chancellor Michaelis return
ed from his official visits to Munich,
Dresden and Vienna, the press and po-
ltical circles have been carrying on
guessing contests concerning the iden-
tity of the men who will be called to
governmental and ministerial posts.
No verification has been posted thus
far of reports that any of these men
would be given appointments and no
official confirmation is expected until
the Chancellor has submitted the list
for approval. This is expected early
in the week and upon the return to
Berlin of Emperor William from his
spectacular trip to the eastern front
extending from Tarnopol to Riga.
On the basis of the unconfirmed
press. it may be assumed even now
however. that the Prussian minister
soon will include many new faces,
Other innovations in governmental
and administrative departments per-
NIT the deductions that the appoint
ments foreshadow in a large measure
the direction in the work of the new
crieintation will be undertaken. Parli-
standardization is likely to assert it
self in the appointment of the Reich
stag leaders or under-secretaries.
