PROPOSALS OF

Public Group Aligns itself with
Capital Against Collective

TRIkE RESOLUTION.
RIkE. RESOLUTION.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 21.-After
a day of uncertainty, during which
President Wilson, sent to Secretary
Lane, chairman a message of concil-
iation to be used as a last resort,
the national industrial conference
tonight cleaned it's slate by reject
ing all collective bargaining resolu-
tions as we'll as the labor proposals
for Intervention in the steel strike.
The public group aligned with
capital on the vote against both the
original collective bargaining and
steel strike resolutions although the
declaration on collective bargaining
was proposed by the public dele
gates who are members of that
group. Prior to the vote on the
original declaration, the employ
ers substitute and two new amend
ments by Thomas L. Chadbourne,
chairman of the conferences central
committee met defeat. Only the
employers favored the substitute
and labor and capital united in
, their opposition to the amendments
When the conference reconvenes
tomorrow morning it will be in
practically the same position as at
the opening on Oct. 9Th. In adjourn
| ing the session tonight, Secretary
Lane declared that the conference,
; had produced nothing, and advised
it to take a new start by adjourning
I for several days while coordination
/ com mittee of not more than six
members frames a program of ac-
; ton.
] Defeated on every point and hav-
ing lost the support of the public
F.; group which Heretofore has been on
the side of the workers the labor
delegates left the conference hall
tonight disheartened and feeling
as some of them, said, that little
could be gained by further meet
ings. However, meeting of the
group has been called for o'clock
tomorrow morning and individual
members will be bound by action
taken at that time.
Should labor show a disposition
s. to bolt the conference Chairman
Lane will undoubtedly use the Pres
idents letter in an effort to avert
| ;c;c 1f hn lot c
said to be entirely discretionary with
the chairman, who declared that he
would not produce it unless the sit
uation became acute. Although labor
4 may force the disclosure of it's con
tents, it was generally predicted to
, night that the workers would no
withdraw. The presidents message
it was understood restated tht
purposes for which the conference
was convened, emphasized the ur
gency of the need for allaying indus
/ trial unrest, and makes a ples
for further work on the part of th'
conferees. "
\
;, The morning session of the con
r ference lasted only a few minutes
: and the afternoon meeting, durin
which quick action was obtained
was not convened until o'clock. TIL
entire day was devoted to grou
meetings in an attempt to devils
another declaration on collectiv
bargaining satisfactory to all ele
ments. After more than three day
of almost continuous session
: the employers were unable to agre
upon another statement and fell bac
upon the Wheeler substitute.
