CONPERS GIVES DEFI TO BARR
 AND CAPITAL
Head of A. F. of L. Declares Reduction in Wages and Longer Hours Will Precipi- tate Fight
CBv Review Leased wIre)

LAREDO. Tex, 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 public utterance of William H. Barr, president of the National Founders association, that a reduction of wages and longer hours would be the only means to enable American manufac- turers to continue to cope with for eign industries after the war.
 Notice is given here and now" MT. Gompers said, that the American people will not be forced back by either Barr, his association or all the bourbons in the United States.
 "The American labor movement wholeheartedly supported this world struggle, and we knew just what was involved said MT. Gompers.
 "The American labor movement will co-operate with all other agencies to help in this reconstruction time. Our movement is not to destroy but to construct. And all may just as well understand now as at any other time that the advantage which the workers of America and of the allied countries have gained and which We hope to extend to the people even of the con uuered countries, is not going to De taken away from us, and We will re- sist in that attempt to the uttermost.
 The conference adjourned after a pan-American federation of labor had been formed and Samuel Gompers elected its chairman. The new orga- nization is to be composed Of dele gates from the representatives of the American Federation of Labor and delegates from the labor organlza' tions of other pan-American republics
 The objects of the new labor fed eraticn are the establishment Of bet fer conditions for working people who emigrate from one American country to another: the establishment of bet ter understanding among the work ing people of all the Americas and the utilization oI every means for the promotion of welfare of the peoples of these countries. Each country will be entitled to at least two delegates The federation will maintain perma nent headquarters in Washington. The federation will meet annually on the first Tuesday in July.

primarily to help Mir. Smith with the Soldier Talent shows. Together they selected 25 local directors for these performances with the various Young Mems Christian association divisional headquarters. Now E. c. Carter, chief secretary of the r. M. C. A. in France has asked for more directors, and the Carnegie Institute has announced that as soon as the influenza quarantine is lifted it will begin to train p addi- tional men and women '. M- C. A. workers for this work.
 Difficulty of transporting properties and costumes is one of the hardest problems in improvising shows for the soldiers, according to MT. Stevens. They had to be carried in small va- lises, instead of drays, piled high with trunks and the directors had to make their shows fit on the small stages of the "" huts instead of the big the ater stages.
 "One of my jobs has been to dis cover or write plays for use where no costumes or props, even citizen s clothes can be had; that is to say sol dier plays, not war plays" said MT. Stevens. My first effort in this di- rection, called Three Wishes.' has been given in a dozen camps at pres ent, but we want other plays just as we need many more directors. The 20 we have at work are far too few.
 "One of the main performances giv- en for the American soldiers was that of festival play presenting the main ! features of the life of Joan of Arc, written by Mir. Stevens. It was pre- sented at DOmreny, the home of Joan, three days after the great American drive on the St Mihiel salient and dur ing its performance Liberty motors on the way to the front were purring over the heatls of the audience. Miss Marie Young played the part of Joan but the performance as a whole did not depend upon the professional act ors but upon numerous soldier players who had been rehearsed for three weeks. Twenty-Five hundred soldiers attended the performance, although none of them are stationed at Dom reny.
 | The American front was for many months in the section of French LOT raine associated with loans career and it is said that more than 5O,OOe American soldiers have made pill grimages to the house where she was born.

 better food supplies, and appealed for the peoples support by avoiding ex- cesses Pieter J. Troelstra, the sociai- ist leader, accused the government of a lack of frankness in dealing with the chamber and declared that the people no longer would tolerate secret wire pulling.
 We now assert that the militarist influence emanates from the queen and her entourage, which is in contra diction at every point with the spirit of the people" said M. Troelstra. 'The government instead of rejoicing at what has occurred abroad, rather gives the impression of a careful housewife afraid for her china cup board.
 'The government apepals for order because the social democracy sees that the moment has arrived to take over the power of the state. The promise of better food fails to touch the question advanced by the social democrat and labor party, which will be decided at the Rotterdam congress Sunday.
 The workers will not abandon their rights for a mess of pottage. We do not desire anarchy or violence, but the historic events in Germany hap pened practically without violence be- cause there they understood the mo ment had arrived for socialism. We should bertay the workers if through fear of violence we allowed this his toric moment to pass.
 The government will not be able to rely upon the army, because the army consists of workers who have been treated by the wealthy classes in such a manner that the army has becomo their worst enemy. Neither will the government be able to rely on two thirds of the police force to act against the social democrats. We aspire to power because the govern ment no longer has the power or right to govern"

 Five battle cruisers. the Derflinger, Hindenburg, Seidlit, Moltke and von der Tam, are apparently al that Ger many has.
 The armistice terms stipulated for the surrender of six.
 Eight of the most recent light cruis- CTS are the Drummer, Bremen, karls- rune. Pillau, Frankfort, Nuerberg' Koeln and Dresden.
 It is only if neutral ports are not available that the German warships are to be brought for surrender to allied ports. But there is reason to believe that since the armistice was signed the neutral powers have made if clear that their ports are not likely to be available for the irksome pur- pose and there is no doubt that the surrendered German warships will be brought into allied ports.
 Surface warships which are left to Germany will be concentrated in one or more of the German ports. They will be paid off and completely dis armed and will be under the supervi- sion of a commission of surveillance appointed for the purpose by the as sociated powers.
 Regarding the German submarines which fled before the revolutionists and took refuge in Swedish waters there is DO doubt they will have to be surrendered.
 Regarding the Black sea. arrange ments are now being made for the surrender of all ships in German hands. It seems now to be practi cally certain they will be surrendered without trouble
