Gompers Serves Warning at Great
Labor Conference-Says American
Workmen Will Not Stand for Re-
vision Downward After War.

Laredo, Texas, Nov. 16.-Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, in the closing
hours of the pan-American labor con-
ference here today served formal
warning that no general reduction OF
wages nor Increase in working hours
after the war would be accepted with
out a bitter fight by organized LABOR.
He issued a statement inspired by a
recent public utterance Of VIM. II.
Barr, president of the National Foun-
ders' Association, that a reduction Of
wages and longer hours would be the
only means to enable American
manufacturers to continue to cope
withS foreign industries after the war.
Notice is given here and now"
Mr. Gompers said "that the American
people will not be forced back by
either Barr, his association or all the
bourbons in the United States
President Gonpers read into the
record published statement in
which Mr.. Barr was quoted.
Perhaps 1 might have not taken
notice of this declaration if the same
character Of information had not
come to me from various quarters"
Mr.. Gompers said.
with the understanding of the re-
sponsibility which goes with nay
words notice is given here and now
that the American working people
will not be forced back either by
Barr, his association, or all the bour-
bons in the United States.
There are some people who Will

German Fleet Ordered to Engage the
Allies Until the Last Ship Went
Down.

Copenhagen, Nov. 16.-Bv the AS
socsated Press.-Friday afternoons
edition of the vorwaerts Of Berlin
declared that the report was true
that the German fleet was ordered
out on Oct. 20 for final battle,
which was to be fought until the last
ship was sunk. The pan-Germans be-
lieved that such battle would re-
animate the German people with the
spirit of 1914.
1t is said that he order to the fleet
spoke merely of a 'tn1aneuver cruise =
but the report that a sacrifclal battle
was intended spread like wildfire. A
general mutiny followed.
This" says The Vorwaerts, "was
the real spark that kindled the rev.
olution."
The number Of persons killed in
Berlin since the revolution broke out
is said to be about 100.

TO DISCOUNT COTTON PAPER,
Lever Takes Up Matter With Feder-
al Reserve Bank.


Washington, Nov. 16.-Congress-
man A. F. Lever today was informed
bv persons in South Carolina that the
Federal Reserve Bank, of Richmond
had stated that it was unwise to re-
discount cotton paper, which would
enable the farmers to hold their cot
ton for higher prices.
Mr.. Lever was indignant at such
a procedure and got in touch with
Gov. Harding, of the federal reserve
board, in Washington and informed
him of the report. Gov. Harding as
sured him that no such policy was
authorized by the federal reserve
board and that he would take
prompt action to investigate the
matter and rectify it.
Commenting upon the situation,
Mr.. Lever said:
'I am glad to say that I found
Gov. Harding of the reserve board
in full accord with my own views;
he gave me every assurance that
the reserve board was in sympathy
with the efforts Of the farmers to
get a Just and fair price for their
cotton. He assured me that he would
sac to it that no unwise discrimi-
nation should be made against the
farmers Of the South. regard this
as a, very important matter because
the farmers can hold their cotton If
the local banks, which are members
of the reserve system are permitted
to have their paper discounted
through the reserve banks"
