take the first step. Such course Of
procedure would involve much unem.
ployment and loss to both labor and
capital.
1T was the sense OF the meeting
that the fine spirit Of voluntary co.
operation in industry which had prov.
en- such valuable factor in the con-
duct OF the war should be availed OF
to ease and expedite the processes Of
adjustment, and that the manufac
turers Of the country would be willing
to take the first step.
After full discussion Of the situa.
ton, which occupied the greater part
Of the day. resolution was adopted
asking the secretary Of commerce to
seek the approval OF the President to
the appointment Of committee to
deal with the situation.
ut was contemplated that the com.
mittee should call into conference the
representatives Of the basic industries
Of the country to examine conditions
in industry with view to the formula.
tion Of scale Of prices at which the
manufacturers would be willing to sell
with a view to maintaining or restor.
ing business activities to full vol
ume.
1T was felt that time was the very
essence Of the problem, and that there
fore the appointment and action Of the
committee should proceed with all pos
sible speed. 1t was believed that pub.
lie announcement Of the conclusions
of such committee would have
great value in establishing confidence
in level OF prices, and would be ac.
cepted by bankers and others as a ba-
sis Of credit"
If the President cables his approval,
the committee will be designated at
once, and will be composed of men
who served as heads Of the divisions
Of the War Industries Board, which
went out OF existence January i. Mr..
