asserted that Senator McCumber's ar
gument was the first to be made at
tempting to defend the Shantung pro
vision on any other ground except ex.
pediency.
'All the members of the peace dele
gation," he said, ''have gone on re-
cord as believing the provision was
wrong. The president himself was
prompt in saying it was unsatisfac-
tory to him."
Senator BOrah argued that not only
must Japan's promises be discounted.
but that she really had promised
nothing material.
Nowhere he continued, has Ja-
pan ever promised to return anything
but a mere shell. She might very
well comply technically with any
promises she has made, but after she
has complied she'll still be complete
master of Shantung."

CARY WON'T SEE
LABOR ENJOYS
Declines to Meet A. f. Of [.
Committee.
MAY RESULT IN STRIKE
Head of United States Steel Corpora
; ton Sends Word Any Communica-
! ton Must Be Written.


ton Must Be Written.
New York, Aug. 27-Elbert H.
Gary, chairman of the board Of the
United States Steel corporation, de-
clined to meet John Fitzpatrick and
other representatives of the American
Federation of Labor, who constitute
a committee appointed to organize the
workers in the iron and steel indus
try.
Mr.. Gary sent word to the commit
tee that if it had any statement it
wished to make it should be reduced
to writing and then it would be con-
sidered by the corporation.
Mr.. Gary's statement follows: {
when informed by my secretary
that a committee Of a labor organiza-
tiOn, consisting of John Fitzpatrick,
William Y. Foster and D. J. Davis,
had requested to see me l sent word
to them, through my secretary, that
did not care to have a personal inter-
view, but if they had any statement
to make and would reduce the same
to Il written letter it would be re-
ceived and considered by our officials,
who would then determine what. if
any. answer to make. Nothing fur
ther has passed between us.
Il think it is better for those gen.
tlemen and for me to leave no chance
for misunderstanding in regard to
what has been and shall be said I
have intended no personal discour-
tesy."
The refusal of Mr.. Gary to see the
committee was the first development
in the controversy which may result
in strike of the steel workers to
enforce union recognition and better
working conditions.
The effort to arrange a conference
with the head of the largest single
unit in the iron and steel industry
came few hours after the hurried
return from Europe of Samuel Com
pers, who announced before he sailed
hat his presence home was more i'm
Derative than abroad. 1t was expect
ed he would attend the conference
with Mr.. Gary if one were arranged.
The committee headed by Fitzpat-
rick has been authorized to call
strike on August 3O if fails to obtain
the concessions desired. If a walk
out is ordered, it will involve every
industry dependent upon iron, steel
and tin.
