 when safe in harbors, and that the eight hour work day and child labor law shall be maintained. Delegates planned to adopt this resolution today and complete all other business, in
 cluding the formulating of a plan for
 unionizing Mexican workpen in the United States.
 President Gompers expressed grat- itude over what already had been ac- complished by the conference toward establishing a firm foundation of. con- | fidence and regard between the work
 CTS of all the nations of the Americas.

 T think all Americans now recog- nize the fine record of our army said the War Secretary, "but We must not fail also to appraise the work it has yet to do.- Following the exhilaration of combat comes the tedium of peace but the tasks of peace are infinitely important, and we must uphold our sons as they perform them. This drive for the United War Work fund is direct challenge of the measure of our appreciation. It is our way to ! reach arms of helpfulness to every dis tant place where the the flag Is un- folded for the healing of humanity" | Provost Marshal General Crowder Issued a statement emphasizing that money for the Welfare Workers will be more needed now than during the war.

ANARCHY IN THE CENTRAL STATES
 GREAT DANGER

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 15.---Prof Albert Bushnell Hart of Harvard Uni versity, historian and economist, in a published statement today warned against the belief that hostilities are at an end. Prof. Hart said that the fred spectre" of Bolshevism in Ger many and AustTia-Hungary might make 1t necessary for the American and Allied troops to renew fighting at any time to prevent civil war in those countries.
 It was clearly the duty of America and the Allied nations, Prof. Hart said, to stem the tide of anarchy in the central states until stable gov ernments were organized to meet the situation.
