esses. High wages have invariably re-
suited in constructive changes, bene-
flcial to workers and have resulted in
increased production.
"The second misstatement used to
the discredit Of the wage-earners is
that output is deliberately restricted
by the organized labor movement and
by Limitation of hours of. work. In
many industries production Is below
pre-war volume. This Is not due to
labor, but to unsettled trade condi-
tions, managerial policies and high

NEW ORLEANS. September 22.-Co-
operation between arrangements and
workers in industries and. the grad
ual abolition of abnormal conditions
caused by war will eventually bring
about the increased production OF
commodities which the world needs
now. President Gompers of the Ameri-
can Federation Of Labor urged In
paper read before the Associated Ad,
vertising Clubs OF the Worid, IN annuai
session here today.
On. account of press Of business Mr.
Gompers could not be present at the
morning session His address. however,
was received and read:
The fifteenth annual convention OF
the organization. with .1.5O0 delegates
in attendance, was opened by Presi-
dent William s. Darcy of st. Louis.
Mr.. Gompers was to speak today as
representative of labor. Tomorrow Fes-
tus J. Wade, st. Louis banker, will
speak in behalf Of capital. and will
be followed by Champ Clark OF Mis-
souri,. who will address the conven-
ton from the point OF view OF the
consumer.
High wages Mr.. Gompers defended
as one factor in high costs which
would eventually lead to improved
methods and progressive machine
production. while settlement of
peace terms he classed as funda-
mental requirement before the world
can resume it's orderly processes.
Credit Needed for Revival.

agreed to by the leading nations Of

trial conditions Credit is essential to
a revival Of industry. Credit can
only be arranged upon definite politi-

Prompt ratification of the pending
peace treaty, he said, was an abso-

'"rhat treaty is not perfect" he re-
marked. "but it is our only construc-
tive suggestion for dealing with
some of the things which cause wars" :"

are human beings. Cooperation for
