WASHINGTON, Jan. IA confer
ence of governors here to work out
plans with the department of labor for
putting the growing army of the un-
employed to y ork at once, was propos-
ed today by Senator Kenyon, Iowa.
Kenyon and some other members OF
congress are alarmed at the rapid in
crease OF unemployment and the lack
of any effective government plan for
providing work. There is no lack of
ideas in congress for creating jobs in
the future, but how to supply work now
Is the problem worrying Legislators.
Il am going to suggest to the depart
ment OF labor that the governors OF
the states be urged to attend either in
person or through representative a
conference with department officials
to work out some means for putting
to work at once more than two hundred
Thousand men, who according to my
information are jobless In rne United

In addition to Kenyon's suggestion
two other ideas were advanced today.
By Senator France, Maryland:
"iMove workers from industrial CEN
tiers where there is an oversupply OF
labor to places where workers are
needed"
BY Senator Weeks, Of Mass: Get
busy on federal emergency work on
waterways. road building and land re-
clamation."
This is, in effect, the plan urged on
congress by President Wilson No ac-
ton has been taken on it.
France said, in support OF his plan,
there are many places where labor is
needed to which men could be taken

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l
PARIS, Jan. 17.-Bloody fighting
with heavy losses on both sides has
resulted from an alleged attempt by
Serbians to forcibly abolish Monte
negrin sovereignty, according to off,
cial dispatches received here today
by Montenegrin representatives.
Twenty thousand Montenegrins are
said to have participated in an up
rising against the Serbs.
The report that King Nicholas Is
opposed to Inclusion of Montenegro
in the proposed Jugo-Slav state is un-
true, Notwithstanding Serbian protes-
tations to the contrary. Montenegrins
declared the king demands that a
constituent assembly shall decide the
sovereignty Of the new state rather
than having it automatically come
under Serbian dynasty. The uprising
is cited as proof that the majority of
the people stand by the king.

PARIS, Jan 16.-The war between
democracy and terrorism will be
largely decided at the international
labor and socialist congress in Berne
this month, declared Arthur Hender-
son, British labor leader. In an inter
view with the United Press today.
Henderson explained this was the
reason the government had tactfully
supported the proposal of British
labor that German and Russian dele
gates be admitted to the congress.
'-The last hope in democracies is
at stake" he said. THE Issue is de-
mocracy versus terrorism. Between
the two the western world cannot
long delay its choice.
I'VE speculate for organized sc.
ciety in it's most real sense We ara
prepared to stand between ctviliza,
ton and chaos. Now that the gov
ernments are beginning to realize
that fact there is little likelihood OF
them ever reverting to the idea that

Henderson said the allied labor1tes
and socialists have drawn up pro
gram for their principles, the reforms
they desire, ETC., which they are ready
now to present to the Representatives
of the central powers and neutral
nations
The Berne congress Will differ
from the peace conference in this re-
spect since the allies will be occu-
pied at Paris for months in reaching
an agreement before presenting their
program to the central powers.
