Capital and Labor.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28-An I'M
mediate conference of capital and
labor is necessary to solve the econo-
mic situation at present confronting
the United States. according to Frank
lin 4. Lane, secretary of the interior,
in statement here today.
Events seriously threatening the
welfare of the country are rapidly
drawing to climax" he said, and
urged President Wilson to take i'm
mediate action looking forward to a
Joint meeting of employees, employers
and all other elements directly inter
ested in the industrial problems, with.
out waiting for congress to act on the
resolutions now before 1t, calling for
such conference, Lane said.
"Such conference should be
called" Lane said, "and called at once,
Now is the time; there should be no
delay Personally I believe the presi
dent should not await possible action
by congress, but should take direct &C
tion and summon the conference on
his own responsibility.
Steps should be taken to make this
conference both definite and practi
cable There should be no theorizing
1t Is d very OSllliitC anu 1CdA pAoblCAA
we have to solve, and we should ad
minister only definite and tested RENE
dies. And 1t is entirely possible to
determine on those remedies and their
applications If we summon to the con
ference the knowledge and experience
Of all elements and interests in our in.
dustrial life.
"The organization Of the conference
should be given careful thought. While
it might be termed conference OF
capital and labor those are rather in.
definite terms. Capital is rather
vague term. While capital, as repre-
senting finance, should, of course
have representation, there should also
he representatives Of management and
of those groups, which, under capital
l'have a more imme mediate contact with
the problems of labor and production
! az they arise in the mills and shops
and on the farms.
"To my mind, the studies Of the
conference should be directed along
two lines.
First there should be a determine
tion of the principles that should gov
ern in all relations between employer
anO eU1DlONS LIS Diiodid w Ao0hAN~S
on good conscience, and should cover
the question of wages to labor and
return on capital, opportunity for ad
vancement and betterment and recog
! milton Of merit.
Second should be the determination
of ways by which these principles
! might be carried out.
| 'It is here that vagueness and theo
rizing should be barred. Every em
ploycr and every manager who comes
I! into the conference should be asked
How do you handle these problems
What is your practice%
, "There are employers who are solv
! ing the problems of production, O
| keeping their men satisfied and con
tented, of maintaining wholesome ant
| stimulating conditions in their plants
These methods should all be la1'
before the conference, and from thi
basis Of known, tested methods, ther
should be worked out general PFC
