GOMPE RS LOSES
VOTE At CONF FAB
Debate Between Labor Head
and BritiSher Features
World Conference.

WASHINGTON. Nov. s-Nakfng
his first address before the interna-
tional labor conference. in which he
sits as an official representative Of
American labor. Samuel Gompers.
president OF the American Fedora
tion OF Labor. declared for the
straight elght-hour day as a maxi
mum as compared with the fs-hOur
week and incidentally served notice
that in the United States even the
eiRht-hour day would be shortened
II labor could accomplish its pur-
pose.
Mr. Gompers spoke IN reply 10 a
majority report on the part OF en-
ployer delegates favoring the prin-
cipie OF reducing hours. but stating
that it could not be put in force
generally al this time owing to the
need for increased production as a
result OF the war.
Make Shortage Good.
The report. submitted by d. s.
Majoribanks. OF Great Britain.
pointed out the need for special ef-
fort Ito make good the shortage OF
food supplies, the reconstruction of
devastated areas and the replace
ment OF machinery" declared that
the progressive increase in the cost
OF living would lead 20 disaster un-
less the needs OF the present situa-
tiCn were considered in conjunction
with the aims of the labor repre-
sentatlves"
Stoutly denying that output could
be increased over a considerable pc
riod Of time by lengthening hours.
Mr.. GOmPers characterized the
American workman the most pro-
ductive worker in the world. and
said industrial history proves the
eight-hour day to be more prOduc-
tive than a 10 or II hour day.
Late in the conference session Mr.
GOmpers took the floor TO move
that the entire subject Of hours OF
work be referred TO a commission.
A motion offered yesterday by
George y. Barnes. member of the
British war ministry and govCI1-
ment delegate. and numerous
amendments proposed today had
been the subject Of discussion
throughout the session. and Mr.
Gompers proposed that the whole
matter be sent 20 a committee.
Loses Vote.
The American labor leaders mo-
ton was lost by a vote OF 30 TO Al,
with a majority Of the labor dele
gates voting no" Mr.. Gompers
raised his hand in the affirmative,
but his vote was not counted by the
secretary because OF his unofficial
status.
Mr.. Barnes motion provided that
the draft convention on the 4S-hour
week prepared by the organizing
committee be made the basis for
discussion, but this was opposed by
labor delegates on the ground that
it excluded the eight-hour day from
consideration. a substitute resolu-
tion providing that the convention
relating TO the eight-hOur day and
the 4S-hOur week as a maximum
be accepted as "A basis for discus
sion. offered by Leon Jouhaux
French labor representative. alsC
was defeated Then the Original
motion. with an amendment by Ar
thur F0istGine. of France. striking
out the Objectionable words, forty

of the other proposals. The confer
ence. with its slate clean. then ad-

Washington. More wheat should be
s0wn this fall than was the average
ln pre-war years, but not so much
should be- sOwn as was sOwn last year.
This II the outstanding fall farming
recommendation Of the United States
department OF agriculture. which r.
watching the changes of world supply
and demand while European countries
are getting back 10 normal IN food pro-
duction and thus affecting the market
for American products. The depart
ments suggestions are based on the
observations Of specialists who were
sent abroad to report on foreign con
ditiOns aud probable needs, and on the
most extensive reports II has been pos
slble 10 obtain from other sources In
this country and other countries.
A. 20 winter wheat, the department
suggests that i2,OOO,OOO acres be sown
this fall to this crop, and that 10000.
900 acres be sown In 1920 10 spring
wheat, making probable aggregate
production In 1920 OF S30,OOO,OOD BUSH
els of which 2O0.OOO.OOO bushels would
be available for export after home
needs are met. This production would
approximately equal the average yield
OF wheat la the United States for the
Ave years. 1915 to 1919. inclusive. The
i've year average is thought to be
safe guide for American farmers.
The suggested acreage for fall-sown
WHEAT Is approximately 50 per cent Of
the area sown In the fall Of 1918, and
b. about the same as was s0wn In the
fall o. ipi7. The suggested area for
,prins wheat Is approximately ~ per
cent OF The area sown In each of the

OF winter and spring wheat suggested
Tor 1910 Is about SO per cent Of the
