Workers.

FOR EIGHT HOUR D
Four Major Questions to be Taken uF
including Legislation With
Reference to unem-

FOR EIGHT HOUR d

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
WASHINGTON, July 18.--Plans OF
the international labor conference,
created by the peace treaty when 1t
convenes here for its first meeting
next October, were outlined today
by DR.. James T. Shotwell American
representative on the reorganizing
committee of the conference. This
meeting he declared will be the first
step taken in accordance with the
peace treaty on behalf OF labor. Shot
well, head of the history division of
the American peace commission,
commented on these four major ques.
tons to be taken up by the confer
ence:
An eight hour day throughout
the world. "In the treaty all powers
have agreed to accept the principle
of the eight hour day. said Shot
well, "but the conference will under
take to draw up definite laws which
will embody that principle SO 1t can
be applied by each nation and pre-
pare detailed treaty to make the
obligations reciprocal"
Estate help to remedy unemloy-
ment. "The peace treaty" he said,
provides that each nation provide
remedial legislation with reference
to unemployment. The conference in
October will discuss definite laws"
3-Women in industry. 'This is to
be taken up with reference to three
separate problems" Shotwell stated.
First, safeguarding the health Of
mothers obliged to work for their
living. 1t is proposed to prohibit
their work for a certain period be-
fore and after child birth. To pro-
vide for a mothers maintenance dur
ing the period she is not permitted
to work each nation will be required
to create maternity fund. The
second will be enforcement of pro-
hibition of night work for women
and third, consideration Of women in
dangerous trades"
4-Children in industry. "The
main question involved here" he
said, "is the prohibition of child
labor up to fourteen years Of age.
There is a definite clause in the
treaty stating that no country shall
be asked or required as result of
any of these annual labor confer
ences to lessen any of the protec-
tion accorded to its workers by law"
The organizing committee, Shot
well stated, has cabled long series
of questions to each member of the
league of nations about its existing
ard proposed laws on these matters.
Answers are now arriving.
Four delegates from each nation in
the League of nations will be sent to
the conference, he said-two repre-.
senting the government. one repre.
senting capital and the other labor.
They may be accompanied by tech
nical experts who will not have a
vote.

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-Shsping
Of peace time policy was to begin

States army on the basis Of lessons
learned in the war. A sub commit

Among considerations wrich will

ament and the military programs Of
Great Britain, France and Japan,
members said.
Some were doubtful If a final poll
cy will be decided on before the
league Of nations meeting here next
October, at which disarmament ques-
tions will be considered.
Under the temporary program en-
bodied in the military appropriations
bill recently passed, the army will be
scaled down ultimately to less than
$50 900.

Of the fire. Other parties are heading
into the Thunder Mountain country
from several directions. The fire Is
burning on q thirteen mile front, ten
miles wide. An area thirty miles long
and fifteen miles wide has been
burned over during the past two
weeks. A new fire has started in the
Yellow Jacket section and looks dan
gerous. The state is furnishing the
equipment to the army fire fighters.
Fear is expressed that Idaho may see
another duplication of the disastrous
fires in 1910 which started from nu-
merous small fires and caused a $22,-
100000 loss to timber and cost the gov
ernment million dollars to control it.
Governor Davis was able to get
prompt relief from Secretary Lane
who set aside $4,000 to be used to
equip fire fighters and send them to
the burning area. He leaves for Wash
ington today to urge the government
to put forth every effort to meet the
forest fire situation in this state.

REPEAL URGED
Rider Again Attached to Agricultural
Bill Which Was Vetoed Once
by President VIII

WASHINGTON, July 1S-Repeal OF
the daylight saving plan was again at
tached as rider to the agricultural
appropriation bin by the house agri-
culture committee today. This ac-
ton was taken despite the fact that
President Wilson has already vetoed
the bill once because of the daylight
saving repeal.
Administration foes appeared deter
mined to force the agricultural ap-
priatior measure and the repeal clause
through the house and put it before
President Wilson again.
The new bill differs from the one
already vetoed in that 1t exempts
from repeal the standard time zones
which were established in the origi-
nal daylight savings act.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-Presi-
dent Wilson today continued his at
tack in opposition to the league of
nations by calling to the white house
four republican senators who are
known to be open minded on the
subject. They were: Kellogg, Mime
sofa; Kenyon, Iowa; Capper, Kan
sas, and McNary, Oregon.
Kellogg has favored a league Of
nations in principle for some time.
Kenyon's attitude Is considered
doubtful. Capper is known to favor
the formation of a league, but would
Ike certain amendments In the pres
ent covenant. McNary is believed to
b.. des'rcus Of having some kind Ct
"a league organized.
The president was expected to fol
low the same liae OF argument as he
did yesterday with Colt, Nelson and
McCumber. the first three republican,
senator's to call. 1t was learned ne
did not ask them to change their
opinions, but merely gave them 'in-
side Information" as to why certain
decisions were made at Paris ard
certain clauses inserted IN he
teaty. It was understood he talred
about the Shantung settlement which
has evidently been selected by the
opposition as the weakest point in
tho peace fabric.
Some resentment has been aroused
at the capitol because the president
ignored such leaders as Knox, Borah
and Lodge, and sent his invitations
first to those senator's who were be-
lieved to be more OF less doubtful"

their attitude towards the proposed

tration senator said today.
This senator, who declined to be
quoted directly, indicated the belief
that IL the senate adopts reserva-
tions, counter reservations Will be
proposed by at least one other gov
ernment.
The general result. he declared
would be-:
1-Serious delay in carrying out
the peace settlement. through delaying
final ratification by sufficient NUM-
ber OF powers to make the treaty ef-
fective.
2-Hampering the immediate and
successful launching OF the league OF
nations.
3-Re-opening OF questions pre-.
sumed settled by the treaty.
In other words, this senator de
clared reservations by the senate
would "vitiate the contract" the ma
tions have made for restoration and
maintenance of peace.
IT, however, the other powers give
assurance that they will be disposed
to accept senate reservations as
mapped out by Root, there would be
less objection to some of the propo
sails, the senator said.
Illustrating the probable effect OF
American reservations, the senator de-
clared that a reservation stating that
the United States regards immigration
as a purely domestic question, never
to come under the jurisdiction of the
league, probably would bring from
Japan reservation to the effect that
that government und derstands under
the league equal treatment Is to be
accorded nationals Of all nations.

| CHICAGO, July 18 - One hundred
| thousand building and street construc-
| ton workers are locked out here today
on order Of the Carpenter-C Contractors
association and the Building Construc-
ton Employers association, following
refusal of $4,000 of the men to return
to work.
The men asked flat increase Of

, agreed 70 grant them twelve and y
half cents more than they were get
ting An ultimatum was issued last
night giving the men until eight a. M.
to day to resume work. When no
men showed up at that hour the lock-
out order was issued.
The lockout ties up more than
$5O,O0O,000 worth of building and
street work In Chicago. Dozens OF
projects were pending. The daily loss
to the men thrown out of work was es-
timated at 100000
The two employers associations
have membership Of 1,700 contrac-
tors in the Chicago district. Txo
thousand letters were mailed to the
employers and union agents notifying
them of the lockout.
cago Federation of Labor, declared the
builders will not go back to work until
their demands are granted in full. He
said their wants will be supplied by
contributions from other labor unions
and from the public in general.
The last general lockout in Chicago
occurred in 1899 when 10000 men
were out thirteen months.
The possible extent of the lockout
was realized when it was stated that
$4,000 other workers in gravel pits,
lumber yards and cement mills may be
thrown out Of work If the lockout con-
tinues for a week or longer period.
Many men will continue at work
under independent contractors, ac-
cording to William Brim, president Of
the district council of carpenters.
Brim returned today from Indiana
polls where he was comforting with
heads of the national council regard
ing the probabilities OF lockout or
der. He said he was assured every
assistance from the national council.
This is not lockout but strike
Brim said. Independent contractors
have not offered us any assistance in
the matter. Men will continue at
work under Independent contractors" !

BERLIN, July 1S.-Germany wants
loans or credits from America.
Director Wasserman, of the Deutsche
bank, made this clear today in an in
terview in which he pointed out that
raw materials and food were essen
tial If Germany was to meet the oh
ligtions of the entente and become
q stable member Of the world so.
ciety.
The German bankers would not
make overtures to the Americans,
Wasserman said. as they did not
know whom to approach, but would
wait for American financiers to renew
relations.
'.There is only one way Germany
can be helped at this time" he said.
IF she can get copper and other raw
materials or credit then she can be-
gin the task of building up her coun-
try and repaying her debts. We
would start credit for as long time
factured goods. With the proceeds
from half Of five-eigths of raw mater
ials thus manufactured, / believe we
could repay our credits"
Herr Wasserman emphasized the
advisability of the entente and
America taking steps by which the
value of the German mark could be
stabilized for year or two.
Wasserman, who is one of Ger
many's leading financiers, is also a
close follower of political and social
affairs. l asked him incidentally,
what he thought Of the socialization
Of Germany.
From the political standpoint it is
purely an internal question" he an
swered, "but from an economic course
it interests foreign nations. l be-
lieve socialist political control could
be accomplished but as for actual and
complete industrial socializing there
is no chance at present. That will
be process of evolution. You can't
force socialism on a whole nation at
one stroke.
Il do believe that if Germany were
socialized other countries would not
deal with her. But America and the
other powers need have no cause for
worry from that standpoint"
