(4) 1t is believed that to this
general education should be added
provision for assisting boys and
girls to determine the directions in
which they may make the best use
of their native talents and oppor-
tunitics, and to prepare for useful
service in the world. This provis-
ion should be made at public ex-
pense and should be made available
to all boys and girls.
60 1t was decided that study
should be made of the subject and
as to what cooperation with respect
therto might advantageously be Civ
EN- by commerce, industry and labor.
Method of Procedure
1t is believed that in a number
Of cities in this country progress
has been made in securing co-opera-
tive effort looking toward the solu-
ton of this problem. The Con-
ference, therefore, requested the
Commissioner of Education to make
a preliminary inquiry to determine
the most advantageous point or
points at which to make study of
the methods which have proved sue
cessful in accomplishing the desired
results.
1t was suggested that a prelimin-
airy letter of inquiry be sent to the
executive officers of the following
organizations:
Q) Schools of the member COM
panies of the National Association
of Corporation Schools.
(2) Local Chambers of Commerce.
90 City Central Labor Unions.
The purpose of this preliminary
inquiry should be to ascertain:
O Which of the organizations
addressed have taken official notice
of local need for closer relation
between the public schools and the
future life work of the pupils.
(2) Which of these organizations
have appointed, or have co-operated
in the appointment of, advisory COM
mittees to act with the public schools
authorities.
(3) Which of these organizations
have been able to accomplish defin-
tie results by means of such COOP
erative effort.
Cooperation
The members of the Conference
agreed to cooperate with the Blu
reau of Education in making this
preliminary inquiry, and in studying
the replies which may be received.
The conference adjourned, to meet

of entering, with the rest of the
world, upon a program of social and
industrial reconstruction.
Labor's Peace Treaty Proposals
"Since the outbreak of the war
several international labor confer
ences have insisted that number
of international labor standards be
embodied in the peace treaty." says
the bulletin. "This demand was
formulated by representative work
men in France-where the social in
surance system is almost as deficient
as in the United States and Tur-
key.
"Prominent is the demand that all
countries agree to establish mini
mum standards of social insurance
protection, as for example in Eng
land The plan has been heartily
endorsed by labor representatives of
all the principal European coun-
tries.
"The American labor movement re-
Gently submitted preliminary peace
treaty proposals including labor's
bin of rights recognition of the
basic eight hour day, and prohibition
of child labor. Meanwhile more
than thirty state and national labor
organizations in this country have
gone on record for more complete
protection through the various forms
of social insurance"
Public officials, national and state,
the bulletin reports, have upheld pro-
tective standards for labor, as a war
necessity, by refusing almost uni
versally to sanction any suspension
or evasion of labor laws.

of the workers in a plant join in the
complaint.
IF 10 or more workers present a
complaint to the National War La
Dor Board, it will receive the same
considerate attention that is given to
complaint made in the name of
10000 workers. In fact, the War
Labor Board will consider it from
the standpoint of all the workers in
the plant and not merely those who
joined in the complaint. 1t is best,
of course, that the complaint be pre-
sented by or drought group of
the workers duly authorized to rep
resent their fellows.
Ceases are taken by the War La
Dor Board either on joint submission
of workers and employers, or if eth
err side refuses to come in, then the
complaint of the party is served upon
the other side, with a summons from
the Board, after which it will hear
the grievance as set forth and take
appropriate action"

SHOWING HOW TO GET
COMPLAINTS BEFORE
WAR LABOR BOARD

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9. In a
statement on how to get complaints
before the National War Labor
Board, Joint Chairman Walsh says
his board does not issue general rules
and regulations but decides each case
on its merits in the light of these
principles.
"The workers should therefore
first take up with their employers
all questions affecting working con-
ditons," he says. "If the employ
err does not agree to an equitable ad-
justment the workers may either
present their complaint directly to
the National War Labor Board or
request the Secretary of Labor to
assign a commissioner of Cancellation
to the case. 1t is the duty of this
conciliator to endeavor to bring the
employer and the workers together
in an agreement. If he fails to do
so, the conciliator should then pres
ent the matter to the National War
Labor Board in a formal complaint.
Blanks upon which this complaint
may be set out will be sent to any
one upon request by the Secretary of
the National War Labor Board, Wash
ington, D. C.

workers be organized in order that
grievances against an employer may
be recognized by the War Labor
Board. 1t is not necessary that all

THE IMMEDIATE
LEGISLATIVE
NEEDS OF LABOR

NEW YORK, Nov. Immediate
preparation to meet the after-war
stress of rehabilitation and indus
trial reconstruction, through pro-
gram of legislation for averting an
unemployment crisis and assuring
full protection for labor, is urged by
the American Association for Labor
Legislation.
"The transition from war to peace
will impose strain upon national
institutions and resources quite as
severe as that involved in trans
forming the country's activities from
a peace to war basis"
Immediate Legislation Needs
All gains in labor conservation
through wartime executive orders,
the bulletin states, should be perpet-
uated by law Legislation to es-
tablish the federal-state Employment
Service on a unified, adequate and
permanent basis, long neglected in
peace but found vital in the emery
ency of war;" it is asserted, "is a
reconstruction duty of immediate i'm
portance pressing upon US for action
rs far as possible in advance Of the
actual need for it." Maternity care
for wage-earning women, through
health insurance laws. is urged as a
foremost measure for safeguarding
the nations motherhood and child
hood Prompt passage of the Smith
Bankhead bill now pending in Con-
gress to extend the now federal sys-
tenn of vocational rehabilitation for
disabled soldiers and sailors so as
to include also crippled industrial
workers, according to the Associa-
ton, is an urgent war and recon-

Comparing the British worker, al
ready protected by social insurance
against accidents, sickness, old age,
inValidity, and unemployment, with
the American workman, covered only
by industrial accident insurance, the
Association declares that this coun-
try is confronted by problems of

Educa ton.
Memorandum
October 3, 1918.
The following letter has been re-
ceived:
DR.. P. P. Claxton, Commissioner of
Education, Department of the In
terror.
Dear Sir-The attention of the I'M
dersigncd has been called to the re-
port of conference held in your
office on June 9Th, to consider ways
and means for promoting more eff
ficient cooperation between the pub
lie schools and those agencies which
are relied upon by employers for
supplementary preparation of youth
for wage-earning efficiency.
AS we understand it, the func-
ton of the public school is education
for citizenship in the fullest sense,
which includes intelligent, efficient,
purposeful, and worthy living. The
primary function of the training pro-
vided by the employer is to help
make the individual more efficient
and contented worker. These two
functions are supplementary to each
other, and call for close practical CO.
operation if the desired results are
to be secured. In the last analysis,
both must conserve alike the in
terests of the worker, the employer,
and the State
Too often the public school author
tiles and those who direct the train
ing given in commerce and industry
work in ignorance of each others
aims and ideals, and sometimes even
at cross purposes.
We are in hearty accord with any
movement which has for its object
the securing and promoting of CO.
operation between educators and re-
sponsible groups of citizens in the
study of education for intelligent
citizenship, to promote a closer re-
lation between the public school and
the future life work of its pupils.
For this reason we endorse the
conclusion reached at the conference
referred to, to make a study Of the
matter.
We take pleasure, therefore, in
pledging such assistance as our ac-
credited representatives may be able
to render in such study, and join
with these representatives in re-
questing you to proceed along the
lines requested.
Very truly yours,
H. M. ROWE,
President, National Association Of
of Corporation Schools.
HARRY A. WHEELER,
President, Chamber of Commerce, of
the United States.
! SAMUEL GOMPERS,
President, American Federation of
Labor.
The Council in compliance with
the request of the Commissioner of
Education, appointed the following
committee: Vice-President, Mrs
Gertrude Tyler; Delegates, G. w.
Koockogey and James M. Gulley.
Bro. George Vingen presented his
resignation of the presidency of the
Trades Council. The resignation
was accepted with regrets and the

Bro. Vingen for his faithful and
efficient work for the good of or
ganized labor during his incum-
bency of the office of President
and at all times.
The election of a successor to
President Vingen was postponed I'M
til the next meeting.
There was discussion of the
United War Work Campaign and all

GERMANS MAY PLAN
ASSAULT ON WOEVRE
Heavy German Train Movements from
the Direction of Metz May Mean
That the Outflanking of YER
dun is Planned.

With the American Army in France
Friday, June Thy the Associated
Press Reports of recent heavy Ger
man train movements from the direction
of Metz toward the Mihiel salient has
aroused discussion in the American ex-
peditionary forces as to whether the en-
emy is planning an assault in the
Woevre.
From tactical point of view the
neighborhood OF st. Mihiel with its sharp
salient, offers a logical place for Ger
man attack. A drive through St. Mi
hiel to the southwest, it is considered
might have a triple object the menac-
ing of Bar-le- Due the o,itnanking of
Verdun from the rear and the elimina.
tion of the salient which has its apex
at Verdun
For the moment at least, perhaps per
manently, the allies have stopped the
enemy at the Marine. Many engagements
of tactical nature may be expected
even if the Germans decide it is useless
to continue their efforts along the Marne
and elect to hit the allied line at other
places. The position of the railways
and the formation of the terrain north
west and north of Bar-le-Duc offer the
Germans an opportunity OF course,
what the future holds for the American
forces around st, Mihiel is not known,
but the salient there is being discussed
rs a possibility not to be lost sight of
Another place which is likely to see
more fighting is the sector around Mont
iidier, where American troops recently
.aptured Cantigny. Another important
,oint at which American troops are sta
Toned is the territory around Chateau
rhierry. II may be considered certain |
hat whatever the future holds, the |
American forces undoubtedly will par
icipate in some hard fighting.

PATROL VIGILANCE
NOT RELAXED
American Navy Is Taking Every Precau-
tion Against Reported Depreda-
tions by German Submarines.

Washington, d. C., June S.-Plans OF
the navy department for constant vigi.
lance in American waters against fur.
ther depredations by German submarines
were believed TO have been set in motion.
Putting into effect OF the home campaign
known TO have been formulated some
time ago has only been fastened by the
visit OF raiding U-boats TO the Atlantic
coast, II was intimated, and the present
efforts are but part of long CON
templated program.
Future visits from the German raid
ers may be expected, il was said, and
Atlantic coast waters must be hence
forth considered as submarine proof. The
navy department would not venture
prediction to-day, as to whether the
craft which preyed upon American coast
wise traffic might be still lurking in
waters of this side of the Atlantic. Ii
was said that the vigilance of patrols in
nowise had been lessened nor would it
be decreased even after il was safely as
sumed that the Germans had returned to
their home ports.
The latest dispatch made public by the
navy department, concerning the raiders,
was the announcement last night of the
sinking late Wednesday of the. Norwe-
gian steamer Vinland, of l,l93 tons, 65
miles off the Virginia capes. The crew
Of the Vinland was landed safely at
Cape May, n. j., yesterday. The sink
ing of the Vinland followed that of the
British steamer Harpathian by nine
hours and occurred 80 miles nearer the
Virginia coast. Bombs we're used in the
attack on the Vinland

SUBSTITUTES FOR SALOONS.
Modified Y. M. c. A. Huts in Industrial
Districts.

Springfield, Mass, June S.--Modified
Y. NJ. C. A. huts of the type successfully
used in the war zone and at cantonments
in this country are suggested as sub
stitute for the saloon in industrial dis
tricts in report read to-day at the con-
ference of the association of employed
officers of the Young Mems Christian As
sociation of North America. The report
was submitted by Charles r. Towson of
New York. chairman of the commission
on ungrasped and undeveloped opportu-
mites among industrial workers.
The report expresses the belief that
such establishments, selling soft drinks,
equipped with lunch counters and billiard
tables, and providing facilities for mu-
sic, newspaper reading and socisbility,
could successfully compete with saloons
and improve conditions in industrial
