Produce More is
LabOr'S Advice
to Europeans
Americans Would Introduce
"Pep" Instead of Politi-
cal Negotiation.
BY j. w. Il. MASON.

BY United Press:
NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-American
labor influences are at work at
tempting TO discourage political ag-
itatiOn as class measure by Eu-
ropesn labor leaders and to impress
upon Europe's workingmen that the
way 10 earn more money is TO pro-
duce more goods.
This is startling doctrine for
Europe. where leisure is highly
priced and speed in production is
strictly limited by trades unions.
pep" is a new word to Europeans.
which America is now trying TO in
troduce to them
Europe's agitators have long been
running TO their national legisla-
lures for increases in the standard
OF living Help from the state has
been their essential condition of
economic Improvement. Europeans
are now learning that in the United
States the workingmen have not
formed powerful political parties
and instead of maintaining class
representation in congress, they i'm
rect negotiations with their en-
ployers.
Congress Restricted.
The European labor leaders who
want the state to act for them in
attaining greater economic comfort,
are planning 10 hold q congress In
Switzerland under socialistic aus
pices. The Americans have declined
10 attend this convention. The Swiss
meeting. therefore, cannot have a
wide international influence and will
not exert much pressure on the de-
liberations of the peace congress.
Samuel Gompers wants to hold a
rival international labor convention
in Paris. TIE essential purpose of
THIS assembly would be TO impress
American ideals of high productive
ity at high wages upon Europe and
10 persuade the peace congress to
recommend action 10 this end.
