for three months during which all
strikes and lockouts would be
called off.
Other proposals were:
By Secretary Of Labor Wilson, for
an arbitration board in each indus

By Gavin McNab. representing the
public, providing for a national ar
bitratlon board.
By Charles Edward Russell, another
representative Of the public, for re-
duction Of the high cost Of living as
the first step in bettering industrial
conditions.
A-fourth resolution by the public
group urged recognition by employ
ers Of the right OF workers to or
ganize.
A plan for labor adjustment pre-
pared by Secretary Of Labor Wilson
was also presented.
Wilson's5 plan provides-for an ar
bitration board in each industry. La
Dor, the employers an dthe President
would each appoint 0ne-third OF the
board members. All the boards de-
cision touching wages would be by
unanimous vote.
Farmers Determined.
The farmers, although represented
by only three votes in the employers
group, are quite determined to be
heard. They gave ample evidence OF
that fact yesterday, when they

President Wilson, implies the right
to work freely'-in other words, that
labor unions should be prohibited
from interfering with the right Of
any man TO work during strike
periods. or otherwise. Whether this
principle will be embodied in pro-
pOsals TO stop piCketing, etc, has not
