WASHINGTON. oct. "A fight
over smethod of procedure term
mated the forenoon session Of the
industrial conference today.
Strong opposition developed to
the rules committees proposed
method. A recess was ordered TO
give each group represented-em
ployers, workers and the public-a
chance TO discuss the committees
report outside the conference hall.
The committee proposed that the
conference be organized on a group
basis instead OF on an individual
basis. That is. each of the three
major groups would have a chair
man and two secretaries. Each
group would decide in caucus, by
majority vote. how it should cast its
ballot on any proposition. Then on
the floor. each Of the three groups
would cast one vote and an unanim-
Gus vote of all three would be neces-
sary to pass any proposition.
Opponents TO this scheme assured
il was Pres't Wilson's idea in sum-
moning the conference, to have a
round table" discussion Of every
proposition, TO clear the atmosphere
and eradicate misunderstanding
and that his plan was to have in
dividuals, not groups. vote.

Round Table Fights
on Method of Procedure

The rules committees proposals
were 10 be disposed OF at this after
moons session. Until this body's sug-
gestions are adopted, or some other
method of procedure adopted, the
conference is at a standstill as far
as solving the nations industrial
problems are concerned.
Before the committees report was
made. Franklin K. Lane, secretary
of the interior. was elected perma-
nent chairman.
The fight over the report started
when Committee Chairman W. D.
Mahon read it.
John Spargo, one of the publics
representatives attacked the report
saying the conference might as well
terminate its labors now if it were
adopted.
The report also provided that:
All proposals shall be referred to
a general committee Of 15 imne-
diately upon introduction.
Proposals shall be submitted only
by groups. This would prevent pre-
sentation Of proposals by individuals.
No delegate may speak more than
10 minutes and not more than
twice upon any proposal. He may
not BE recognized by the chair the
second time until all who wish to
discuss the proposals have spoken.

PLAN CLEARING
HOUSE To SETTLE
LABOR DISPUTES
Committee Investigating Steel
Strike Will Probably Make
Recommendation.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER.
United Press STAFF Correspondent.

WASHINGTON. oct. "A law
creating a federal clearing house
for labor disputes probably will be
recommended by the senate labor
committee investigating the steel
strike. according 10 members of the
committee today.
This is strongly favored by Sen.
Walsh, Massachusetts and other
members of the committee including
Chairman Kenyon.
Prevent Another Strike.
Undoubtedly some form of legis-
lation 10 prevent a repetition of the
steel strike will result" Walsh said
today. Government machinery
ought TO be devised to act as Il
clearing house for industrial dis
putes. This should take the form Of
a body TO which either labor or en-
plovers could go to state their griev-
ances. Let the commission. or what
ever body is set up. send its own in
vestigators to the scene and make a
report on the facts as il finds them
Then let the public judge who is in
the wrong"
Legislation should go no further
than this az present. Sen. Walsh
said. on the question Of compulsory
arbitration
Labor's Only Weapon.
You can never pass a law for
compulsory arbitration" he con-
tinued. that would take the right
to strike from labor. This is labor s
only weapon and II would not be
given up without fight. Compulsory
conciliatiOn. in which the strike
would be delayed until after a con-
ference. would only result probably
in postponing a strike for a few
months. during which time the en-
ployer could be stocking up goods
with which 10 supply his trade
during a prolonged strike. Then the
employer could simply lean back
and challenge labor 10 a finish fight,
the employees being unable 10 save
up against a longer period Of idle
ness"
Government operation OF such
factories in this case would be the
only solution. Walsh said
Few refusals 10 negotiate would
result II a government clearing
house" could be established TO get
the facts, he believes.
The committee is hopeful OF get
ting 10 Pittsburgh this week. but
the date is not settled. pendirs an
agreement regarding treaty votes.
