FORMING WORLD

Atlantic City, n. j., Oct. 25.--Work
of perfecting plan for permanent
international organization of business
men in accordance with the unanimous
vote of the international trade confer
ence at its closing session last night
was begun today by Il special commit
tee of ten members. two each from Great
Britain. France. Italy, Belgium and the
United States.
This committee is expected to com
plete the plan within a month and then
representatives of such nations as the
committee may unanimously determine
to invite, will be asked to attend a
meeting at which the plan will he pre-
sentcd for adoption in its final form.
Membership is limited to those countries
represented in the league of nations.

France, Belgium and Italy during the
forthcoming year, shows that they will
need to make nearly 81 800 .0OO. 600 in
commodity purchases in other countries,
principally the United States. if long

SELL BONDS IN u. S.
| TO AID ALLIES, is PLAN

Atlantic City. Oct. pa great
world problem arising out of the inter
play of social. economic and political
forces stirred into action by the world
war.
The quotation is from the final report
of the committee on credit and finance.
made to the full representation. Amer
lean and foreign, of the international
trade conference. which has been in
session here all week.
The conference has been endcavoring
TO solve the problem. Rather it has
been schooling itself in the first prin .
ciples on which a final solution must
be based.
Needless TO say, the problem was
not solved. The work begun will have
to be carried on over months. 1t will
involve extensive investigation, numer
Gus conferences. close CO. operation be
tween the business and governmental
agencies of this country and our Allies
in the war.
With the preliminary sessions at an
end. the members of the conference are
today discussing the weeks work. Sew
eral conclusions seem to stand out
clearly:
First is the establishment of a per-
manent organization. 1t is generally
admitted and agreed that the study of
world needs begun at the conference
must be continued both here and
abroad.
/ Second is the formation of an organi-
zation which will extend large credits.
| for a long term. to the foreign nations
! which need to make purchases here.
Third, and growing out of the sec =
| ond, is IA general feeling that some
! thing must be done to stabilize and if
| possible reduce the prevailing high
rates of foreign exchange.
If the conference has done nothing
more, it has established Il new spirit of
/ understanding and 90 operation be-
| tween American business men and the
| representatives of foreign trade. The
delegations from abroad, in conference
with American committees and in a
series of remarkably frank addresses by
their leaders before the entire con
ference. have spoken plain facts con
ccrning their countries needs. and the
share they thought America might legi-
timately be asked to take in meeting
these needs.
England of the four nations
England France. Belgium and Italy
which participated in the conference,
reports that she is able to meet her own
problems without outside aid.
Apparently one of the results of the
conference may be the selling in the
United States of some sort of loan, by
popular subscription, to meet the credit
needs of the countries Of Europe.

the use of the forces of the nation To
suppress all violence Agents of the
Department of Justice are already ac
lively on the trail of the more impor-
tant radical labor leaders.
Mr.. Foster is watched like Ger
man spy, dictaphone records of conver =
sations with his radical labor clients
confronted Mr. Margolis when he testi :
fled before Senator Kenyon's committee
the other day. The declaration of a
strike in the soft coal mines is to be
followed by the taking over of the mines
by the federal government. Mr.. Lewis
and his followers are going to be put
iuto the position, if they strike, of
striking against the government.
Administration apple Cart Upset"
The administration will occupy the
position of hated capital. And there
is no mistake about the feeling in adj.
ministration circles. The labor radicals
have spoiled all the Democratic party
plans. They have upset the apple cart
Washington does not love them.
When the industrial fight is over il
will be hard for the Democratic party
TO get the labor vote. And il the ad-
ministration is not firm, it truckles to
the radicals, it will be hard for it to
get any other kind of vote.
All stories from the steel strike dis
tricts show that the STRIKERS have been
misled by the belief that the govern
ment at Washington was on their side.
They we're deceived by the Wilson visit
TO buffalo two years ago. They were
deceived by the cooperation between
Wilson and union labor. The illusion
will speedily disappear.
Mr.. McAdoo. if he is candidate,
may point to the efforts of his prede-
ccSsor and of his friends to obtain from
capital a recognition of the right of
collective bargaining through the
unions. But in face of the pursuit of
the radical labor leaders by the De-
partment of Justice, of the taking over
of the mines by the government, of the
use of troops. perfectly justitiiable for
the maintenance of order but inevitably
to the disadvantage of the strikers, it
will hardly be possible to seek the labor
vote. And the too open seeking of the
labor vote under radical leadership will
be politically dangerous.
The mind goes back to the analogy
of the Liberal party in England. The
Democratic party has alienated the
Irish vote. it has alienatcd the German
vote, it has alienatcd mos of the for
cign language vote. 1t has driven most
of the old Liberals who supported Will
son in 1916 over into the conservative
ranks. And now it has made labor
class conscious, dangerous to associate
with politically, and probably filled
it with enmity.
Nothing clearly remains to the party
except the South--a political cataclysm
has taken place.
