Grange Flatly Rejects In
vitation to Conference;
Makes Action Final by
Giving No Explanation
Sought by Compers
Representatives of 100000
Agree Proposal Involves
Peril to Organization

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Nov. ID
Through their representatives 10000
American farmers and their wives to-
day declined an alliance with union
labor. BY an Overwhelming vote the
National Grange, in annual convention
here, adopted, in reply to an invitation
extended by Samuel Gompers for a
conference in Washington, the follow
ing resolution:
"The National Grange declines your
invitation for conference in Washing
ton December 49,"
The Gompers letter had been referred
to the committee on good Of the order,
and after three days discussion that
body late to-day reported. At once
fervid debate began, one of the leaders
being S. j. Lowell, Of Fredonia, N. Y
Few voices were heard in support of
the inv tation, and these were from
Western members. 1t was brought out
by opponents that there was nothing in
common between the agricultural in
teWsts and organized labor. To attend
the Washington meeting, it was de-
clared, would be tacit admission that
there were mutual interests.
The report as adopted was not the
one submitted by the committee. The
latter was a pleading of the case Of
agriculture as we'll as a refusal Of the
Gompers proffer
Finally two substitutes were offered
The one adopted is given above. The
reason of the substitution was found
in suggestions of several speakers
that the report threw open the doors
to any statement union labor might
wish to make and so offered the begin
ming to an endless argument. 1t was
held that a mere refusal of the in
vitation etfectually closed the case
Opinion on the merits of the two
answers was pretty evenly divided and
when it came to a vote the shorter
form won only by narrow margin

Red Cross Drive Enrolls
5000 New Workers
City Is Expected To Be Repre-
scented by 100000 Before
Campaign Closes

Nearly 100000 New Workers. already
have enrolled in the Red Cross for
1920, roll call officials announced last
night. The metropolitan committee
believes that if the present average Of
enrolment is maintained New York
City will be represented by 10000
members next year.
1t also was stated yesterday that J,
?. Morgan & Co. had written to the
Stock Exchange committee of the roll
call that the 100000 subscription
made by that firm had been given with
the express understanding it should go
to the credit Of the Stock Exchange
committee. This means the entire
amount will be credited to the local
campaign, and that none of it will be
diverted to she national Headquarters
of the Red Cross, at Washington, as
was at first rumored. Hornblower &
Weeks, bankers and brokers, contrib
uted $4,000, which goes to the credit
Of the Stock Exchange committee of
the division.
The $4,000 members reported by the
Industrial division is fa~ from repre-
sentlng the complete figures of enroll
ment in this division, as full returns
have not been received from the banks
the railroads, the gas and electrical
industries, the express companies and
the dry goods industry. The railroad
companies always have enrolled large
number of members, and it Is believed
this year will be no exception.

Fails to Act on Resolu-
ton for Adjournment

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Final ac-
ton on the Esch railroad bill was
postponed by the House to-day after
failure of the Senate to take action on
"a resolution on adjournment made it
impossible for the House to adjourn
until next week
During debate Representative
Towner, Republican,. of Iowa, declared
that possible defeat of the treaty" in
the Senate would require that the
House join in passage of a resolution
declaring chat the war is at an end"
Chairman Esch Of the Interstate
Commerce Committee, in charge Of the
railroad bill, announced that because
of the Senate situation" The night
session of the House would be dis
continued. and work would be resumed
on the bill Monday. House leaders were
confident adjournment would be taken
early next week.
Water Line Provisions Approved
An unsuccessful effort by members
from interior states to write into tho
bill rigid rule for the interpretat ton
of the fourth section of the existing
commerce act, relating to freight
charges on long and short hauls,
marked the debate. Their fight was
blocked when opponents declared such
a, rule would destroy rate structures
throughout the country without bene-
fitting the inter-mountain territory.
The House approved several provi
SONS of the bill relating to water lines
Under one section approved, the
Panama Canal act forbiddine railroad
ownership of steamboats, was amended
TO permit carriers to own vessels on

Another amendment to the canal act
also adopted, empowers the Interstate

fourth section of the commerce act be
made mandatory, and Representative

that no departure be permitted be.

Both motions were defeated.
Pool of Earnings Authorized
"A rigid fourth section, as proposed

to traffic and business would be shaker
to its very foundation" declared Mr.
Esch. ut would mean that lines be

to follow the shortest route. 1t would
throw traffic on the shortest lines, ado
to congestion and destroy circuitous
routes"
The House adopted an amendment tc
permit the Interstate Commerce Com
