Lawrence Discusses 0ptimiS-
tic Outlook as Big Industrial
Conference in Washington
Gets Under WAY.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE,
Especial Correspondent Of The News
SclmitAr1


WASHINGTON, Oct. Capital and
labor, hitherto antagonistic tried yes
terday to become friends--possiby
partners Certain that Industrial war
and chaos was coming. President Will
son called employer and employee into
conference. Discussion, he thinks, can
prevent wars between classes as well
as between nations.
The president himself Is too i'll 10
attend the conference, but 1t was his
intention anyway only to open the
meeting and leave the representatives
to work out their own plans and prob
lens. Mr.. Wilson's opening address and
presence, too, would have been inspir-
alton, but the compulsion behind the
big conference is even greater than any
words that could fall from Mr.. Wilson's
lips or pen. The problem is concrete
industrial unrest--spreading, reaching
out, innoculating the whole fabric of
American life with germs OF I'M
certainty.
Cynicism as well as doubt is to be
found in the atmosphere as the con-
ference begins. There will be a lot
Of talk. much abstraction, much gen
crafty and little done--so think many
who don't believe in discussing mat
tiers with their employees, And, resting
Upon the labor leaders from the out
side, comes another cynicism and doubt
but of different character 1t Is the
cynicism of the radicals who look upon
Samuel Gompers and his crowd as
bourbons and ultra conservatives and
who regard direct action as the meth
