PIONEERS Of OCEAN
AIR TRIP ''UNSUNG'
No Decoration; No Promotion
Given Commander Read
Nor Men by U. S.

Washingtonians who attended the
Chamber of Commerce to Lieut.. Com
mander Read and the crew of the
NC-4; those who saw him last night
at the Liberty Hut and those who
have gotten glimpses Of him during
visits to the big seaplane at her chan
mel anchorage have shown a natural
interest in every detail Of the per-
sonal appearance Of the slight, modest
man who was the first to cross the
ocean in the air.

Criticises Administration.

When the Senate met today Senator
Brandegee Of Connecticut criticised
the administration for ordering troops
on foreign service in Silesia without
sending to the Senate or giving to the
public any information with regard to
this service. He also criticised a reso-
luton introduced by Senator Williams
of Mississippi some time ago urging
that American troops be used imme-
diately to maintain law and o-der In
Armenia.
Senator Brandegee said that he did
not see how the United States could
send troops into Turkey without de-
clarfng war on Turkey, which 1t has
never done.
Senator wadsworth of New York,
chairman of the military affairs COM
mtttee. complained because the SEN
ate was given no information regard
ing the plans of the administration
for the use Of troops abroad. He
said that without such information
1t was impossible for the Senate to
legislate properly for a permanent
military policy.

From what can be learned from

and precision. To make his country's
annals more glorious. Read risked his
life. not for a few minutes in a dash
out Of trench, heroic as that act is,
but hour after hour, sailing an un-
charted sea Of afr, half the time in
heavy fog. So far the country has
given him and his companions neither

GROUPS
SPARFOR harmony
Busy Exchange of Views Pre-
cedes Opening of Daily
Sessions.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

Anybody dropping casually into the
Industrial peace conference would
imagine some mysterious meeting Of
conspirators was being rehearsed.
Here and there groups Of men talking
in low and earnest tones to one an
other. Joined by an individual or two
who a moment later move quickly to
another group. exchanges a few words
and hurry back again-an of this
for two hours before the session is
scheduled to begin-but that's the way
the conference Is trying to get har-
mony between capital and labor.
The procedure seems to be open
covenants openly arrived at part of
the time, and private discussion and
q passing around Of compromise plans
galore overnight and before and after
the sessions in an effort to get agree
ment. Nothing more dramatic has
been witnessed in the National Capital
In many years than the open discus
sion on the right Of wage-earners to
organize.
The public and labor groups having
united in support of a general reso-
luton on that subject with Judge
public group-it became necessary for
the employers to take the responsible
ity for a breakup IN the conference
itself or offer. some substitute resolu-
tion as q compromise.
The trouble is that the employers
group is not cohesive. The farmer
representatives openly expressed their
sympathy with labor's position on col
lective bargaining. Some of the
spokesman OF the employers group,
like Frederick Fish of Boston. made
extensive speeches. but some Of his
colleagues didn't agree with much of
what he said, and the employers group
finally managed to agree among
themselves on q resolution that would
show clearly that capital wasn't op-

SENATE EXPECTED
TO HURRY TREATY.
Early Action on the Remain
ing Amendments Is Be.
Iieved Probable.
RESERVATIONS NEXT DUE

More rapid consideration and action
upon the remaining committee amend
ments to the treaty of peace with
Germany was expected by the Senate
today. in view OF the decisive defeat
of the Shantung amendment yester-
day.
The program for today and tomor-
row includes the reading OF the re-
mainder OF the treaty and probably
the disposition Of the remaining Fall
amendments.
The opinion was expressed that the
johnson amendment. to equalize the
representation of the British empire
and the United States in the league
OF nations, might be reached for con-
eideration tomorrow, though no vote
is expected on it until next week.
As soon as the Senate has dis
posed of all proposed amendments to
the treaty. II will take up the mat
ter OF reservations in the ratifying
resolution. The defeat of all amend
ments to the text was practically
conceded today.
Col. House Willing to Testify.
Chairman Lodge of the foreign re-
lations committee. was advised today
that Col. z. NJ. House, who returned
from Paris Monday, would appear be-
fore the committee IL IL desired as
soon as his physical condition would
permit.
Commander Allen D. Mclean. a
Navy surgeon, who accompanied Col.
House home. called on Mr.. Lodge
and said the American peace com,
missioner probably could confer with
the committee in a week or two. p
Senator Lodge said the committee
hearings on the treaty had been
closed, but that he would present
Col. Houses message to the full COM
rnfttee next week.

Root Of Difficulty.

The root Of the trouble is the tact
less walking delegate and the arro-
CANT labor leader as distinguished
from the tactful walking delegate and
the conciliatory labor leader. Each
group In the big conference now go
ing on bases his arguments on their
respective experiences in the past. A
man like H. B. Endicott, the big shoe
manufacturer, has been remarka bly,
successful in handling labor and sees
no reason why other men shouldn't
get along as we'll as he does.
A man like Judge Gary has had con-
tinuous strife and claims that the Ia
Dor leaders in his employ are really
bolshevistic in tendency. The union
labor people here say that IL 1t 10 a
choice between two kinds of walking
delegates or leaders the employers
will get far better types of men BY
strengthening the hands Of conserva-
tive organisations like the American
Federation of Labor than by weaken
ing that organisation and throwing
the masses Of workers directly into
the hands Of radicals like the I. w.
WIS. In criticism Of the employers
proposal, too. one heard the objection
that recognition OF the right of wage
earners to organize in trade and Ia
Dor unions or shop councils would be
meaningless in actual practice If at
the same time an employer could
withhold or extend that recognition

Clear Statement Today.

Outmaneuvered In the dramatic ses-
sion OF Thursday, the employers came
back to the fray today with a clearer
statement OF their reasons for dissent
and proposal that at least means q
basis for compromise or further dis
cussfons and propels the whole con-
ference step further toward agree
ment instead Of dissolution. which
seemed imminent on Thursday.
The employers are willing to agree
that without in any way limiting the
right Of the wage-earner to refrain
from joining any association or to
deal directly with his employer as he
chooses. the right Of wage-earners in
private as distinguished from govern
ment employment to organize in trade
and labor unions, in shop Industrial
councils, or other form Of lawful asso-
citation, to bargain collectively, to be
represented by representatives of
their own choosing in negotiations
and adjustments with employers In
respect to wages, hours Of labor and
other conditions of employment. is
