Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-07-16

Briefly set forth some of the more i'm
portant suggestions adopted by the con-
ference were as follows:
(1) That the Government take a de-
and order and that aliens who seek to
invoke force rather than reason against
our form of government should be
treated as enemies to our institutions
refTrfnAs, stand against enemies of law
and sent cut of the country.
(2) That tne government continue the
work of improving the railrods, in or
der that they may be brought to the
highest point of efficiency irrespective
of whether they are to be returned TO
private ownership or not: 1t was
thought that the rebuilding of the RAIL
roads would furnish an inspiration to
our whole industrial life and that the
country at large would pront thereby.
(3) That needed public improvements
be Undertaken as speedily as possible
in every community. This 1t was thought
would tend to relieve unemployment
to a considerable degree.
C) That all indebtedness incurred by
| the Government be settled with all pos
J sible speed in order that capital might
| thus be released for other purposes.
| go That the Government take steps
| to announce its policy as soon as pos
of Industry now in its hands or nder
its control SO that manufacturers may
determine their policy under stanble
conditions.

tinue its survey of the natural
of the country in order that the useless
waste of material may be ended and hu-
man energy directed along the lines OF
more modern development.
C) That Federal aid in the main
~tenance of public employment agencies
be continued inasmuch as its discontinue
ance would be both untimely and harm
full.
(s) That the practice which has been
adopted in many parts of the country
kof establishing living and suitable
memorials to the heroic deeds of war
be given every encouragement. The
modern conception of working out the
composite result of perpetuity of senti-
ment and improved community utilities
educational and otherwise appealed
strongly to the conference and was
recommended as a helpful public policy
1 have endeavored to make a summary
of the more important of the topics
discussed at the conference but natural.
ly the subjects presented for delibera'
tion took a very wide range and as wal
to be expected, there was a wide di
vergence of the views on very many
questions.
In conclusion / can only say that
found the conference Of great persona
llege to have been the city's representa-.
tive on that occasion.
