AirpIanes in Collision.

Losing the engine from his plane
while flying at an altitude of mile did
not disconcert a young American air
man while flying at an overseas field,
according to Popular Mechanics
Monthly. Collision with another craft
tore the engine from his machine, but
at a moment when the plane was glid-
ing on an even keel, he climbed on to
the top of the fuselage at full length
and in some manner managed, by con-
tinually shifting to prevent the craft
from 1uttering into q direct fall. While
maintaining balance with his body he
also manipulated the controls and
guided the machine earthward.

TRADES UNION HEADS OPPOSE
 RED ELEMENT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15 (by Associ- ated Press).-At a conference of presidents of labor unions affiliated with the American Federation of La Dor, held here Saturday, a declaration of principles was adopted which calls on the workers to seek redress of their grievances through political pres sure, presumably through the existing uarties, as there was no mention of labor party.
 The declarations says that the issues facing labor require unity of effort if industrial tyranny is to be avoided.
 The use of injunction proceedings in the coal miners strike was de- nounced.
 The declaration condemns the rad icals and workers are urged to aid in ?stamping out red" activities. The anti-strike provision of the Cummins bill for the regulation of the railroads is declared to be an attempt to estab- fish by legislation involuntary servi- tude

1 IMPORTANT EVENTS
Several Matters Which Will Have
Vital Bearing on Commercial
Situation During Coming

rUnited Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Events
that will have vi4l bearing on the
industrial situation in the United
States are scheduled for the last week
of 1873 year of strikes and lock
outs.
On the outcome of the events. all of
which will get under way Monday
hinge the hopes Of government OIL.
cials that 1920 will prove year OF
industrial peace and record produc-
tion. The events are:
The first report of President VIII
sons industrial commission, appointed
to work out means for preventing
trouble between capital and labor. VIII

Railroad union heads will meet to
outline further action on their De
mands for increased wages which they
wish settled before the roads go back
to private ownership, March !.
The industrial commissions report
will propose new set of machinery
for preventing strikes. While the CHIEF
aim of the commission has been ana
is to bring about a more thorough
understanding between capital ana
labor. its members recognized that
the first step must be to stop troubles
which curtail production, cause EN-.
ployes and employers great financial
losses and serve only to widen the
breach which the commission hopes
to close.
It is understood the report Monday
will touch upon the broader relations
between capital and labor and then
give detailed outline of a plan foI
strike prevention.
The commission is now temporarily
adjourned. After the country has
been given an opportunity to study
and discuss the first report. the com
mission will reconyene January IL,

industry In which wages ana proiits
will be gone into exhaustiveiy.
The gathering of railroad workers
here is expected to determine whether
there is to be peace" or war ~
the transportation industry OF the
country.
Railroad labor leaders decry any
talk of strike although they say the
men are demanding wage raises ano
that they have been stirred by tht
senate's approval of the anttstrlke
feature OF the Cummins bill.
Before Mondays meetings, Attorney
