TRADES UNIONS
TO TAKE UP TWO
. BIG QUESTIONS
Direct Action" Policy Pro.
posed by British Labor
May Be Defeated.

London. Thursday, Sept. A.
Among, the scores Of resolutions that
will be submitted before the Glasgow
congress of trades unions which will
open next Monday. there will be two
outstanding subjects which have
been topics Of. liveliest debate at all
labor gatherings in recent months.
They are the naturalization of in
dustries like coal mines and railways,
and the policy Of direct action" or
the employment of a national strike
as a weapon to enforce political de-
mands.
It now is virtually certain hat the
policy, Of direct action" will be re-
jected.
At today's meeting Of the triple al
lance of railway employees, transport
workers and miners a majority of the
r~ailwaymen supported the proposal
to postpone a vote On the question of
direct action"
Arthur Henderson,, leader of the la
Dor party in the house Of commons,
speaking at London tonight, charac-
terized it as a wise and commenda-
BILE decision" He admitted the
workers must retain the right to
strike for industrial purposes until
society is better organized but declar-
ed they must not "set a bad example
by substituting direct action for the
constitutional measures which are
provided" tG

BELIEVE SHIPS
OF AMERICAARE
BUILT 'TOOFAST
Vessels Flying U. S. colors
Seen Disabled in Many
Ports.

Para, Brazil, Aug. s,-tCorrespond-
ence Of the Associated Press. )--There
were twelve steamers today at the
docks Of the Port OF Para, the gate
way OF the Amazons." Commenting
upo tnia, unprecedented activity, the
Estado says it is a long time since
such a movement of has
have been looking forward to an in
cease in trade with the United States
n it was a matter Of keen regret
that only n of h twelve steamers
was American. -Four were British
and seven Brazilian. The American
vessel will be here a long time. She
is the disabled shipping board steamer
~"Topocaxi."
Americans in South America feel, it
is said, that Notwithstanding the
stories Of wonderful progress in
war, inspiring tales of smashed rec
ords in rivet driving, and finished
ships being turned out in marvellous
time at mushroom yards on the At
lantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts, it is
probably true that haste does not
make speed" An American was
heard to ask today as he looked at the
flags flying from the masts Of a dozen
vessels: Are we being left at the
post?"
Henry S. Fleming, a New York en-
gineer, has just arrived here from
Liverpool. He y that at each of
the four ports at which his steamer
touched he saw American steamers in
a disabled condition.
At Leixaoes-the port for Oporto.
Portugal-he said there were two
American ships in a disabled condi-
ton; one was a shipping board steam
er, the other one of the wooden ships
built during the war rush. At Lisbon
there was a shipping board steamer
being repaired. At Funchal, Madeira,
steamer being patched up. And upon
his arrival here he saw the "Topo-
caxi."
Rumors of a similar condition in
other. ports, he says, does not argue
well for American efforts to build up
a first class merchant marine. Among
the comment and questions heard
during a discussion of the situation
were these: T.,
What is the matter with the new
ships being built and with those be-
ing handed over by the shipping
board to private c%arterers? Are they
being duly inspected before being
handed over, or before putting out to
sea? Leaking steamers, besides re-
Meeting on our national s%hlpbu1ld1ng
efforts. mean damaged merchandise
and resultant lack of confidence. in
American-made goods; such a, condi-
ton results in a definite setback to
our efforts to build up foreign trade
on a permanent basis"
British sea captains and sailors
smile when anything is said of the
American merchant marine being a
serious competitor. AS one captain
put it.: I'VE are not afraid Of ships
which cannot sail more than 800
miles without having engine trouble,
or being, compelled to make for the

a resolution which has been intro

Vice President Loebe, demanding that
all army officers Immediately take the

AMERICANS SAY
BRITISH NEED
NEWER METHODS
Iron and Steel Manufactur-
ers Wonder Whether They
Will Get Home Trade.

- LHF. =.
London, Aug. neutrality-suspicious.
OF The Associated Press british
iron and steel manufactures are
seriously wondering whether they will
be able to retain their home trade, not
to speak of extending their export
business, in the face o. steadily In
creasing prices Of materials and labor.
Americans who have looked over the
situation. declare the British need not
worry IL they vii! adopt modern
methods, fur wages in the industry arc
much higher in America then they arc
in England.
Anxiety is chiefly confined to
makea Of railway materials, tools,
machiiery, engines, n those things
which go to ti out the completed
ships power plant.
The British workman not only de-
mands high wages, but he is charged
with refusing to give its equivalent in
labor, thus cutting down production
and making it impossible for his m
ployer to fill contracts on time.
America, awakening to h demands
of Europe, is getting the bulk of the
business, while Japan is a close sec
ond. according 10 high trade authori-
ties. Even Germany, with its srioting
workmen and lack of raw materials,
is after trade. and if report can be
believed, is getting it.
AS an instance of the trials which
beset British manufacturers it is
pointed out that one company whose
products had a worldwide sale be.
fore the war have been able to obtain
only one contract out of 20 in COM
petition with German and United
States bidders.
The first stop of the presidential
special will be at Columbus, Ohio,
Thursday. President Wilson will be
accompanied by Mrs. Wilson, Rear
Admiral Cary T. Grayson, the presi-
dents personal physician. and Secre-
tary Tumulty. A corps of stenograph-
ers, secret service men and. some
thirty press representatives also will
be included in the party.
