President Calls Representatives
of Labor and Industry To
Meet With Him.
COOPERATION URGED
Message BY Wilson Expresses Pieaa
ure Over Organized Labor's
Acknowledgements Relief Of
Tension Soon.

Washington, Sept. 2.-President
Wilson, in a Labor day message to
American workers, announced that he
would call in the near future confer
ence of representatives Of labor and
industry ito discuss fundamental
means Of lettering the whole relation
ship Of capital and labor and putting
the whole question of wages upon
another footing"
Encouraged Over Price Fight.
The president said he was encour-
aged and pleased with the results thus
far of the governments efforts to
bring down the cost of living, and ex-
pressed confidence that substantial re.
suits would be achieved in the solving
OF this problem Patience and vigil
ance. however, he said, must be exer-
cised and the governments efforts
must have the cooperation of every
citizen.
Presumably referring to the existing
labor unrest and threats of strikes, the
president appealed to every citizen to
refrain from doing anything that
would tend to increase the cost of liv-
ing but instead to do all possible to
promote production.
Pleased at labor's Attitude.
The president expressed particular
qualification at the attitude taken by
the representatives of organized labor
in supporting the governments pro-
gram to meet requests for additional
wages through a lowering of living
costs, and said he hoped that the work
ers themselves would move with the
government instead of against it in the
solution of this great domestic prob
lem"
The proposed conference, it was
stated authoritatively, would be called
to meet soon after President Wilson
returns at the end of September from
his speech-making tour of the west
It was thought likely that the meet
ing would be held at the White House,
as was the reconstruction conference
OF governors and mayors last spring.

Washington, Sept. 1.-Declaring
that the peace treaty cannot be en-
forced but VIII lay the foundation for
centuries Of blood letting" Senator
Knox Of Pennsylvania, Republican
member of the Foreign Relations com
mittee and former secretary of state,
told the senate that the United States
should decline to become party to
the settlement effected at Versailles
and should negotiate a separate peace
with Germany.
In its hard and cruel terms he
asserted, the treaty imposed Oh Ger
many penalties which violate interna-
tionaI law and engender strife.
The more l consider this treaty"
said Mr.. Knox, the more l am con-
WINGED that the only safe way for us
to deal Eith it is to decline to be a
party to it at ali.
Il think we should renOunce in ia
vcr Of Germany any and all claims for
indemnity, because OF the war, and
see that she gets credit for what we
renounce We ought to renounce all
participation or membership in COM
missions, committees, boards or other
wise provided for in the treaty in aid
OF its execution to which by its terms
we are parties. We ought not to &C
cept cessions Of German territory We
ought to declare q general policy to

at the same time we should reserve

powers in taking such steps as we de-
termine wise for preserving the

courage Senatorial Encroachment
On Executives Power to Ne
qotiate Treaties.

Washington Sept. 2.-The request
of the senate foreign relations com
mittee for latest drafts of the pro-
posed treaties with Germany's allies
have been refused by President Will
son on the ground that compliance
would set a precedent encouraging SEN
atorial encroachment on the presiden-
tial power of treaty negotiation.
In a Seriese of letters made public
Mr. Wilson wrote that it was tout of
the question" to accede to the COM
mittee's suggestion. Chairman Lodge
replied that although the treaties
were closely connected with the treaty
with Germany, the President un-
aOubtedly had authority to keep in
formation about them from the SEN
ate ii he chose.
Brings Another Impasse.
The correspondence apparently
brought another impasse between the
President and the committee on the
much debated subject of what infOr-
nation the senators should have in
their consideration of the treaty with
Germany Mr. Lodge and others have
declared the committee could not act
intelIigently until all of the Versailles
treatiese were before it, but at the
White House conference Mr. Wilson
told the committee that the form to be
taken by the four treaties under ne
gotiation depended largely on the SEN
ate'S action regarding the instrument
now before it.
Rhine Agreement Denied.
A copy of the agreement of June
16, relative to the Rhine district, also
was denied the committee, the Presi-
dent writing that it would only be
come pertinent after the treaty was
ratified, and that the publication now
might be embarrassing to other gov
ernments.
