BRING CHARGES
AGAINST EISNER

Washington. Nov. so.--MaJortty So
cialists OF Germany in their fight
against Kurt Eisner who from head
quarters in Munich is seeking to dis
rupt the German democracy, charge
that ha is secretly in league with the
imperialists and is plotting treason
against the socialists. according to
statements pointed in Vowaerts and
forwarded to this country in official
cables today. 1t Is stated that because
OF his efforts in aid OF the imperial
lists. Eisner. who has been news
paper writer. was rewarded with a
post in the German war Office early
in the war 1t is said he used every
means at command to persuade the
socialists to support the military
party's program and urged his follow
ers to subscribe to the German war
loans. Eisner is showing strength in
his efforts to bring about a conclusive
break between Bavaria and the Ben
lin government where the majority
socialists have get up councils OF
workmen and soldiers.

Warns Country Of
Labor Troubles

New York. Nov. 30.---A warning
that the United States is facing
serious labor conditions and that
every effort should be made at once
to meet them. was voiced here tonight
by Charles F. Hughes in an address
before the Institute of Arts and
Sciences at Columbia university. The
former United States supreme court
Justice said opposition to the right OF
collective bargaining on the part of
the employees is futile. In taking a
stand against the principle of govern
ment ownership he declared:
1T is regretable. but 1t is true, that
government enterprise tends con-
stantly 10 inefticiency."
Continuing, he said II would be I'M
safe to take the experience of the
last year as a guide, AZ the splendid
stimulus OF the war spirit put the
nation at its best
II do not mean to imply" he said,
that the record OF private enterprise
is an agreeable one. but on "A fair
examination of conditions where gov
ernmental management has been
maintained I believe that from the
standpoint of efficiency the compari-
son fayors private enterprise and that
in this eountry We cannot afford To
ignore the fact that inefficiency is the
blight upon our public undertakings"
The mere size of a business does
not warrant its condemnation, pro-
viding there is proper supervision to
prevent losses, Mr.. Hughes decla red
In speaking of labor conditions, he
said:
The indications arc that we are
facing serious labor conditions. 1t
would be idle to ignore this. and
every effort should be made to meet
them. 1t has seemed to me that 1T
this time it would be we'll to have a
quick survey of all the important
public work in the various states and
municipalities which has been held
UP during the war, and that intelli-
gent effort should be made to set it
going az rapidly as possible all over
the country to take up the labor
slack. The question of the distribu-
ton OF labor and the prevention OF
unemployment SO far as may be needs
at this time the most expert attention.

LEAGUE Of NATIONS
ESSENTIAL To PEACE
T SAYS OSCAR STRAUS
Would Protect Weak
err Nations Against
Covetousness.
MONROE DOCTRINE
Former Secretary Urges
Its Adoption as Precept
for World-Speaks
at Auditorium.
MONROE DOCTRINE

Declaring that the tide OF war was
turned and victory made possible only
after the allied nations submerged
their separateness and attained solid
arity. by creating a supreme war
council and a general staff. and urg-
ing this as a reason for the forma-
ton of a league of nations. Oscar r.
Straus. former secretary of commerce
and la Dor and three times ambassa or
to Turkey. last night. in the City
Auditorium, addressed an audience
that. from the standpoint OF numbers.
must have been disappointing to
officers of the Virginia branch OF the
League to Enforce Peace. under
whose auspices Mr.. Straus spoke. In
his judgment n league OF nations Is
absolutely essential to permanent
peace, among other things, TO protect
the large number of small nations
that have been reborn in Europe
against the covetousness OF ambitious
and grasping neighbors.
Unless we profit by the lessons OF
the war, he said. so rs D. make posi-
Bile a better security Than before. we
shall have only succeeded in defeat
ing the enemy without gaining VIC
tory for more lasting peace and the
basis principles and Ideals for which
America and her allies entered the
war and which alone can give AIDE
quate Justification for tho colossal
sacrifices that have been so gener-
ousiy made 10 safeguard the liberty
of future generations
Mr.. straus would follow the lead o.
President Wilson and urge the adop-
ton by the nations, as a whole. OF
the Monroe Doctrine as the doctrine
OF the world. that no nation shall
seek to extend its policy over an
other nation or people. but that every
nation should be left free to deter
mine it's own policy.
In conclusion, he said that with the
victory that America and the allies
have achieved. world power. for the
first time in history. has come un-
der the exclusive control OF free ma
lions.
Mr.. Straus was introduced by
George Bryan. state chairman OF the

force Peace. after Governor West
