LABOR DEMANDS
FACE CRISIS
President Wilson's Vigorous
Steps to Save Its Life
SENDS NOTE TO Ian
Eight To Bargain Collectively Lost
Slate Thus Swept Clean And
Farley Back Where 1t
Started.

Washington.-Afte day OF uncer-
tainty, during which President VIII
son sent to Secretary Lane, chairman,
a message OF Cancellation to be used
as a last resort" the National Indus
trial Conference cleaned its slate by
rejecting all collective bargaining res
olutions as well as the labor proposal
for Intervention in the steel strike.
The public group aligned with cap
ital on the vote against both the orig
inal collective bargaining and steel
strike resolutions, although the dec
laration on collective bargaining was
proposed by the public delegates.
Prior to the vote on the original dec
laration, the employers substitute and
two new amendments by Thomas L.
Chadbourne, chairman Of the confer
ences central committee met defeat.
Only the employers favored the sub
stitute, and labor and capital united
in their opposition to the amend
ments.
When the conference reconvenes,
it will be in practically the same posi-
ton as at the opening on October 6.
In adjourning the session Secretary
Lane declared that the conference
had produced nothing" and advised
it to take a new start by adjourning
Tor several days while co-ordinating
committee of not more than six mem
5ers frame a program of action.
Defeated on every point, and having
lost the support of the public group
which heretofore has been on the side
of the workers, the labor delegates left
the conference hall disheartened and
feeling. as some of them said, that
little could be gained by further meet
ings.
Should labor show disposition to
bolt the conference, Chairman Lane
will undoubtedly use the Presidents
letter in an effort to avert the crisis.
Reading of the letter was said to be
entirely discretionary with the chair
man. who declared that he would not
produce it unless the situation became
acute. Although labor may force the
disclosure of the contents, it was gen.
orally predicted that the workers
would not withdraw The Presidents
message, it was understood, restates
the purposes for which the conference
was convened, emphasizes the urgency
of the need for allaying industrial un-
on the part of the conferees.

HOW THE WAGES JUMPED.
Statement BY The Bureau OF Labor
Statistics.

Washington.-The increase in the
earnings per hour of employees in IL
principal industries during the last six
years was greatest IN the iron and
steel industry, according to state.
ment made public here by the Bureau
Of Statistics of the Labor Department.
While in some departments the pay
was greater than in others, in all de-
partments collectively the hourly wage
of steel and iron millworkers in 1919
was 221 per cent of the hourly wage
in 1913, or Is times as great.
The smallest increased earnings
were those in the millwork industry,
where, the increase of 1919 over 1918
was but 81 per cent. In the other nine
industries for which figures were given
the increases varied from 50 to "a per
cent. These included cotton wooden,
silk, clothing, underwear, shoes, furnt
ture and cigar factory workers.

RESERVATIONS TO
TREATY ADOPTED
Allies Must Except Before Pact
is Effective
NAY LEAD TO WITHDRAWAL
Vote In The Committee Was II To G.,
One Democrat Voting With Re-
pubIicans-Repubic
Stand United.

Washington.-Reo it's consid-
GRAFTON of the peace treaty, the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee
adopted ten revised reservations, in
Guiding a provision that the Senate
qualifications must be accepted by
three of the other great powers be.
fore the treaty ratification becomes
effective.
Among them was a new proposal
which administration senators de.
clared would break down the economic
boycott features OF the League of Ne
tons covenant and reservation Of
Article X differing only in the trans
position of one phrase from tina:
which President Wilson has announced
he would treat as rejection of the
treaty.
Then ten reservations were part of
a list presented by Chairman Lodge
and declared to represent a compro
mise behind which majority of the
Senate is pledged to stand. The ad
ministration members of the commit
tee headed by Democratic leader Hitch
cock, tried in vain to secure modifica.
ton ca the majority proposals and
then voted solidly against all Of them.
Showing for the first time, however,
a willingness to include reservations
of an interpretative character in the
10 +ifca+iop racOIr+ioD Sanction Hitch
cock and his colleagues offered substi-
tutes for several of the reservations
presented, but not a single substitu
ton or change was made at their sug-
gestion.
The ten subjects covered by the res
ervaticns were: Withdrawal from
league memberships; Article x; the
right OF Congress to authorize man
dates; national supremacy over do
nestle questions; the Monroe Doc
trine; Shantung; limitations on the
PREPARATIONS committee; the power of
Congress to determine contributions
to league expenses; the right to in.
crease armament in certain circum-
stances, and the right to continue
trade with a covenant-breaking state.
In the vote on every one of these
reservations, Senator McCumber, Re-
publican, North Dakota, who had
stood with the mild reservationisis"
against all previous committee pto-
posals voted with the majority IN
every case, too. Senator Shields,
Democrat, Tennessee, voted with the
Republicans, the count on all I'M
portant roll calls relating to the reser.
vations standing II to 6.

RAILROAD STRIKE
LOOMS UP AGAIN
Employees Prepared for a Fight
to the Finish
EFFORT TO AVERT CRISIS
Railroad Administration Officials Init.
mate That The Situation viii Be
Solved In Part BY Natural
Economic Forces.

Washingtol.-R-.lroad employees are
prepared for finish fight with the
railroad administration for increased
wages, time and half overtime and
improved working conditions before
the Government surrenders the roads
to private control. Unmistakable no
lice to this effect has been served by
Timothy Shea, of the firemen, appear
ing before the Board of Railway
Wages and Working Conditions.
eff our demands for a living wage
should not be met when the time ap-
proaches for turning back the rail
roads to their private owners" Mr.
Shea said, 1--WE shall demand as a
condition precedent to the change the
realization of the fundamental rights
of labor, the living wage, the eight
hour day on all Federal controlled
roads, time and one-half for overtime,
and other principles to which the Gov
eminent pledged itself during the war,
which have now been made a part OF
the treaty of peace, and which so far
Vic INdIllOoAu alum nelo AACfC
fulfilled"
While Mr.. Shea was appearing on
behalf Of the fremen only, it has
been recognized generally that wage
increases for any one class of rail
road employees meant an advance for
all to maintain equality between the
workers. Furthermore, Mr.. Shea
said, he anticipated that the failure
of the Governments efforts to reduce
the cost of living, which he frankly
expected would make necessary ad-
Yances in pay for all workers, and
predicted that by November l the
wage board would be forced to con.
slider further requests for general
increases from railroad employees.
Thus it is the view here that the
Government, as operator of the rail
transportation, will be face to face
in a few weeks with virtually the
same labor crisis which arose dur
ing the summer. At that time Presi-
Gent Wilson denied the request Of the
shopmen for a general increase in
pay on the ground that the vicious
circle of rising wages and mounting
prices had to come to an end, and
that the country should be given a
&air chance at reconstruction after
the war period.
How Director General Hines and his
assistants propose to meet the situa-
ton has not been divulged. 1t is con
sidered certain, however, that if any
wage advances are given, President
Wilson first will be consulted. Rail
road administration officials declare
the relations with the union men have
never been SO good as at present, and
in pointing to the last report Of the
Labor Department, showing the de-
crease of Is per cent, in living costs
in August, intimate that the impend-
ing crisis will be solved in part by
natural economic forces, plus Attorney
General Palmers efforts to take the
imitation out of prices.

Department of Agriculture Tells
of Tragedies Which Carry
Own Lesson.
LOSS OF LIFE AND PROPERTY
Men In Flour Mills, Cereal Mills and
Elevators Under Government Urge
Are Using More Care-Pre-
ventve Devices Installed.

Washington.-He is a remarkable
contrast:
Between March, 1916, and October,
1917-twenty months-dust explosions
destroyed four of the largest grain and
cereal plants in the United States and
Canada, killing "a people, injuring 3G
and destroying 100000 worth of food
stuffs and buildings.
From October, 1917, to August, 1919
-twenty-one months-there has been
only one disastrous dust explosion in
a flour mill, cereal mill or grain eleva-
tor in this country. This explosion
occurred in May, 1919, in an elevator
killed, four injured and property dam
aged to the extent of $150,000.
Did not the elevators and mills
handle more grain and flour in the lat
ter period than in the earlier one?
And did they not have trouble with
inexperienced men? More explosions,
in the natural course of events, were
to be expected in the later period. The
secret of it is that all the men in the
flour mills, cereal mills and elevators
have been careful and preventive de-
vices have been installed.
Carry Their Lesson.
The following accounts of tragedies
and near-tragedies supplied by the bu
reau of chemistry of the United States
department of agriculture convey their
own lesson.
A feed-grinding plant In Canada
met with 100000 loss from an ex
ploSion and fire caused by foreign ma
terial entering the grinding machine.
The sparks created by this foreign ma
terial, passing through the grinding
plates ignited the dust in and around
the machine. A small explosion fol
lowed. Dust-laden air propagated the
flame to a large bin, where the dust
had been stirred into suspension. This
produced second and violent eXplo-
sion and the fire that resulted coIn-
pletely destroyed the plant, killing II
men and injuring 16.
Friction between any two dissimilar
bodies will produce static electricity.
A spark of this type started a fire in
an elevator head of u southern export
house. Since the elevator heads and
legs were completely boxed in and the
machinery was operating properly
there WIS absolutely no possibility of
any cause for this fire except static
electricity. The discharge ignited the
dust in the elevator head, the flames
burst out and caused q fire on the top
floor. Fortunately the plant was

equipped with an automatic sprinkler
system and the fire was extinguished
before much damage was done. BY
grounding every elevator head in the
building this danger was eliminated,
and since that time no fire or eXplo-
sion has occurred in the plant.
Care Prevents Disaster.
1t was the custom at certain cereal
grinding mill in the middle West to
keep the plant as free as possible from
all dust. This practice, no doubt,
saved the plant from a disastrous ex-
plosion and fire. Some bits of foreign
material got past the magnetic sepa-
rator, and upon entering the grinding
machine caused sparks to fly. The
sparks ignited the dust in suspension.
blew open the doors of the grinding
machines, and flames shot out to
distance of several feet; but because
of the lack of dust to propagate the
flame the fire went out. Had there
been accumulations of dust near by it
no doubt would have been thrown into
suspension and another and very vio-
lent explosion would have resulted.
AT an elevator in the East three
men were transferring grain from
storage bin to a shipping bin when
one of them smelled the odor of burn
ing rubber.
81 guess we had better see what is
the trouble" said one.
Lets finish running this bin first"
