LABOR DEPARTMENT ID BE PROGRAMMED
 UNDER NEW POLICY

Washington, January 3f.-virtual re- organization of the department of labor has been decided on by Secretary Wilson as the first move in plan to establish a war labor administration which will formulate broad national labor policy for the duration of the war.
 The step was recommended by spe- cial labor advisory council named by Secretary Wilson two weeks ago to as- sist him in working out a programme. A war labor administration was proposed ill the council of national defense and approved by President Wilson, who put under Secretasy Wilson's direction all government activities relating to labor problems.
 Taking up first the most difficult task confronting him, that of bringing capi- tai and labor together in an arrange ment to end strikes, 1t was learned to- night, Secretary Wilson will call on both sides immediately to form joint board to meet in Washington to agree on general principles to govern their relations during the war. Each side will be asked to name five representa- tives, who in turn will select one per- son each representing the general pub lie, making board of l2 members.
 The war labor administration will be centered in the reorganization and en- larged labor department Secretary Will son will be supreme labor administrator and industrial service sections of other

government departments. although they will continue their activities as at pres ent. will be centralized under his con- trol.
 Seven new labor department services or bureaus will be created. The most important of these will be an adjust ment bureau, which will deal with indus- trial disputes The others will be desig- nated Conditions of labor, inforna- ton and education. woman in industry. training and di1ution, housing and transportation, and personnel.
 Officials who have studied the war labor situation expressed the opinion to- night that the labor problem at last Is in a fair way to solution. By having employers and employees agree on the general principles of their relations 1t is hoped to settle all differences that may arise before they develop into strikes. Heretofore the policy has been to take up the situation and attempt a settlement after the strikes are im- minent or have actually occurred.
 The labor problem has given the gov- ernment as much concern as any that has arisen with the war. Strikes have been more numerous throughout the country than at any time in the past and there has been a great amount or labor unrest in nearly every industry.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-02-01

which demands supreme sacrifice and endeavor of every one of us. We should give everything that Is needed with the tion, because the objective of the war In which we are engaged is the greatest that freemen have ever undertaken. It Is to prevent the life of the world from being determined and the fortunes of men everywhere affected by small groups of military masters who seek their own interests, and the selfish do. minion throughout the world of the gov ernments they unhappily for the moment control.
 You will not need to be convinced that it was necessary for us, as free people. to take part in this war. It had raised it's evil hand against us. The rulers of Germany had sought to ex- ercise their power in such way as 10 shut off our economic life, so far as our intercourse with Europe was concerned, and to confine our people within the vest ern hemisphere. while they accomplished purposes which would have permanently impaired and impeded every process of our national life and have put the fortunes of America at the mercy of the imperial government of Germany. This was no threat. It had become real ity. Their hand of violence had been laid upon our own people and our own property in fragrant violation, not only of justice. but of the well recognized and long standing covenants of interna- tional law and treaty.

New York, January 31.-The sinking in the Mediterranean of the Argentine steamship Ministro Irriendo on January s6 was reported in dispatch from Paris today to the correspondent here of La- Prenza of Buenos Aires.
 The dispatch quoted the captain of the Irriendo as saying that the ship sank two hours after having been damaged by five explosions. No submarine was seen. The French destroyer Bambara vainly attempted to take the ship in tow. The crew were rescued and taken to Barcelona, Spain, and report of the circumstances of the sinkins sent the Argentine consul at Toulon, France.

Our national life and our sinister influence of foreign control If we do not win. We must win. and. there fore, we shall win. need not ask you to pledge your lives and fortunes with those of the rest of the nation to the accomplishment of that end.
 CRISIS IS AT HAND
 .sYou will realize. as I think states men on both sides of the water realize. that the eliminating crisis of the strug- gle has come and that the achievements of this year on the one side or the other must determine the issue. It has turned ont that the forces that fight for freedom, the freedom of men all over the world, as well as our own, depend unon us in an extraordinary and unex- nected degree for sustenance, for the sup nlv of the materials by which men are to live and to fight, and it will be our glory when the war Is over that we have supplied those materials and supplied them abundantly, and it Will De all the ,,ora glorious because in supplying them .,a bava made our supreme effort and sacrifice.
 ..In the field of agriculture we have aeepcies and those instrumentalities fortunately such as no other govern ment in the world can show. The de- partment of agriculture undoubtedly IS the greatest practicable and most scien- tffic organization in the world. The banking legislation of the last two or three years has given the farmers

access to the great mercantile lendable capital of the country. Both by direct purchase of nitrates and by the establishment of plants to produce ni- trates the government is doing its utmost to assist in the problem of fertilization. The department of agriculture and other agencies are actively assisting the farm CTS to locate, safeguard and secure at cost an adequate supply of sound seed. The department has $2,50O,00o available for this purpose now and has asked the Congress for s6,oo0,000 more.
 FARM LABOR PROBLEM
 '.The labor problem is one of great diff ficulty and some of the best agencies of the nation are addressing themselves to the task of solving it, so far as it is pos slble to solve 1t. Farmers have not been exempted from the draft. I know that they would not wish to be. I take 1t for granted they would not wish to De put in 8 class by themselves in this re- spect. But the attention of the war de- partment has been very seriously cen tered upon the task of interfering with the labor of the farms as little as pos sible.
 FARMERS HAVE RESPONDED
 And let me say that the stimulation of the agencies I have enumerated has been responded to by the farmers in splendid fashion. Last spring their planting exceeded by 100000 acres the largest planting of any previous year, and the yields from the crops were record breaking yields. In the fall Of 1917, wheat acreage of 42,170000 was planted. which was 100000 larger than for any preceding year, 100000 greater than the next largest, and 7,o0o,oOo greater than the preceding five-year av- craze.
 But I ought to say to you that 1t Is not only necessary that these achieve ments should be repeated. but that they should be exceeded.
 T will not appeal to you to continue and to renew and to increase your eff forts. I do not believe that it is necas- sary to do so. l believe that you will do it without any word or appeal from me, because you understand as well as dc the needs and opportunities of this great hour when the fortunes of man kind everywhere seem about to be de- tcrmined, and when America has the greatest opportunity Skse has ever had to make good her own freedom and in making it good to lend helping hand 10 men struggling for their freedom ev- anywhere. You remember that it was farmers from whom came the first shots at Lexington; that set aflame the revo- luton that made America free. hope and believe that the farmers of America will willingly and conspicuously stand by to win this war also. The toll. the in- telligence, the energy, the foresight, the self-sacrifice and devotion of the farm CTS of America will I believe, bring to a triumphant conclusion this great last war for the emancipation of men from

I need not ask you to pledge your lives and fortunes with those of the rest of the nation to the accomplishment of this great end.
 "You will realize, as I think statesmen on both sides of the wa ter realize, that the cuIminating crisis of the struggle has come and that the achievements of this year on one side or the other must de- termine the issue."

 He said the farmers did not want them selves exempted from military service as a class, but that the attention of the war department was centered upon the task of interfering with farm labor as little as possible, and he believed that in the next draft the farmers would find their labor much less seriously drawn upon than in the first.
