Press. efforts of the senate agricul-
tural committee to effect fair price
agreement between sugar producers
and the United States sugar equaliza-
tion board have thus far failed, Sena-
tor Ransdell, Louisiana, member Of
the committee admitted today.
Plantation owners in Louisiana told
the committee that because of exces-
crop would be raised this year and that
owning to the increased cost Of pro-
duction, the price OF sugar would have
to be doubled If the producers were TO
break even.
| Both producers and refiners opposed
the McNary bill. which would renew
the license OF she sugar equalization
board and regulate the price of sugar.
| When asked to what they attributed
the high price of sugar, members OF
the Louisiana Sugar & Rice Exchange
declared that "the president was di-
rectly responsible" and that "he made
a mistake when he refused to permit
the sugar board to buy the Cuban
crop"
G. A. Spreckels predicted that If the
McNary bill was passed the people
would have to pay from $50, 900. 900 tc
$50, 100000 more for their sugar this
year.
Brewers of New York control ths
sugar Of the United States. Sprecklei
said. but assured the committee tina
If the government would take ii
hands" the prices would go down.

Washington, Oct. 22.-President
Gompers. of the American Federation
of Labor, introduced new collective
bargaining proposal in the Industrial
conference Immediately after the
opening of the afternoon session.
IT shall make no argument for the
resolution unless the convention
makes 1t clear that it wishes me to
do So" Gompers said.
Although the labor group is report
ed to have decided to withdraw un-
conference, Gompers delivered no
such ultimatum in beginning his
speech. u,
His manner Indicated, however, that
the labor group has decided to take
dractic action in the event the reso-
luton is defeated.
Gompers began by praising the
work of President Wilson and express
sing wish for his recovery. He de-
clared the labor group had decided on
its present action in Difference to the
wishes Of the president. expressed In
his letter read to the conference by
Secretary Lane at the morning ses-
sion.
Gompers' resolution reads:
"The right of wage earners to or
ganize with discrimination, to bargain
collectively, to be represented by rep
Iresentatives of their own choosing II
negotiations and adjustments with
employers in respect to wages. hours
of labor and relations and condition
of employment is recognized"
Gompers resolution differs from
| collective bargaining resolutions vote(
down yesterday chiefly in that 1
makes no mention of trade or labol
. union.
| Charles Edward Russell, socialis
member of the public group, immed
lately seconded Gompers' resolution
and Chairman Lane permitted tn
waving of the rule by which all reso
lutions must be submitted to the cen
trail committee Of Is before being dis
cussed by the conference.
These tactics assured the Gomper
resolution immediate consideration b

SUGAR SHORTAGE TO
BE RELIEVED IN few
DAYS SAY DEALERS

With the announcement of Mason
Ehrman company here Wednesday
that carload of sugar is expected to
reach this city some time this week,
fear of a complete sugar famine in
Salem was blasted. Additional cars
will follow this one. it was said
and officials of the wholesale estab-
lishment said that they believed the
worst of the shortage will be over
when the cars start to arrive.
Several local retailers said today
that they were completely out of su-
gar. Others, who have small supplies
on hand, were apportioning it out in
small parcels. Two merchants said
that they had been promised sugar
last week, but did not get it.
The sugar shortage was caused pri-
marily by the longshoremen's strike
in San Francisco, which tied up all
boat shipments. Refiners, however,
have beaten this disadvantage by
routing sugar north in cars.

s'It is my understanding that you
have divided upon one portion only of
a possible large program which has
not fully been developed Before a
severance is effected, based upon pres
ent differences, believe you should
stand together for the development Of
that full program touching the many
questions within the broad scope of
your Investigations.
SIT was in my mind when this con-
ference was called that you would
concern yourselves with the discovery
of those methods by which a measur-
able cooperation within industry may
have been secured and if new machin-
cry needs to be designed by which q
minimum conflict between employers
and employees may reasonably be
hoped Tor, that we should make an eff
fort to secure its adoption. 1t cannot
be expected that at every step all par
ties will agree upon each proposition
or method suggested. 1t is to be ex-
pected, however, that as whole, a
plan or program can be agreed upon
which will advance further the pro-
ductive capacity Of America through
+, the establishment of a surer and heart
ier cooperation between all the ele.
ments engaged in industry.
