the late house of representatives, will
be heard again in Salem.
At meeting held yesterday at the
Central labor council rooms it was de-
cided to extend an invitation to Mr..

ton along certain ideas of voluntary

edy for bolshevism. He claimed that
| if capital would show proper spirit
to mediate all troubles, there would
be no Russian bolsheviks in the labor
councils of the state of Oregon.
Mr.. Smith clalms that the censerva-
tive element of labor unions is oppos-
ed to radicalism and that by a right
system of voluntary mediation. there
should be no more strike troubles or
no more radical element attempting
to control labor unions.
A committee was appointed to ar
range for the appearance of Mr.. Smith
in the city. This committee included
Fred G. Sefton, G. III Gram and Thorn
