ference tonight after its final effort
to obtair adoption oil a collective bar
gaining resolution had been defeated
by the vote of a majority Of the caLi-
,al group.
Although the representatives. Of
both the public and capital groups an
nounced their intention of remaining
in the conference, the next move in
the effort to restore industrial peace
to the country evidently rested with
President Wilson
Thomas l.. Chadbourne. chairman
Of the public group, declared the pub.
lie group delegates would remain in
session and report direct to the Presi
dent.
Mr. Gompers thanked the chairman
and members of the public group for
the courtesies shown labor by that
wing of the conference, but said that
since the right to collective bargain
ing had been voted down three times
once after President Wilson had ap-
pealed to the conference to stay in
session, labor felt it had no objects to
gain in continuing the deliberations.
Five members Of the labor group
withdrew Immediately following Mr.
Gomper's announcement while the re-
maiuder left the conference as John
Spargo was presenting q resolution
moving for adjournment to give the
employers and labor groups time to re
consider the stand the groups have
taken on issues before the conference.
Mr. Gompers left the room with his
secretary shortly after Mr.. Spargo
started to speak.
Asked if his group would reconsid-
er his action or would pay any at
tention to the Spargo resolution, Com
pers said Il do not believe my
words were ambiguous; think
made myself perfectly plain"
At the conclusion of Spargo's ad-
dress only the representatives of the

ABOLITION OF EXAMINATIONS
New Methods Urged for Schools o

| New York Oct 21-Abolition of ex.
aminations and merit marks as means
of inducing children to study was
urged at the international conference
of woman physicians today by Miss
Grace Fulmer formerly assistant SUI
lperintendent of schools in Los Angeles
Education should appeal to the child
as a form of play, she said.
During a discussion in which sever
al speakers termed the whole educa-
tional system of the United States as
faulty because the child is regarded
as miniature adult Dr. Wilfred Lay
of New York said the same methods
of instruction we're in vogue now as
two centuries ago.
THE child is just as different from
the adult as the caterpillar from the
moth" she said, "and it is no wonder
that those who are trying to train chill.
dren as if they were adults are so
poorly paid.
Failure to grasp the mental situa-
tion of the child has placed our
schools in the position of attempting
to feed children fried books or baked
Knowledge in the same way that they
are given fried potatoes. 1t is system
of cramming rather than of the actual
mental needs of the child
The necessity of attention to chill
dren's health was emphasized by DR.
Josephine Baker of the child hygiene
bureau of New York city.
The human mother" she said ''is
the only mother of any species which
does not instinctively know how to
care for the baby The human baby is
absolutely helpless"
The child hygiene bureau, supple
mented by the work of nurses, had
practically eradicated skin and eye
diseases from New York city schools
in the last 10 years, she added
