Toxic, Oct. When Captain
L. V. Jones and Corporal Benja-
min Sterling, the Americans ar
rested at Inman, north of, Vlad-
ivostok, recently by Cossacks on a
charge of not having identified
ton papers, the Japanese soldiers
did not threaten to back the Cos
sacks if American detachments
endeavored to force their release.
Instead, according to the Japan
,ese General Staff statement, the
japanese offered their good Off
ces which resulted in the Ameri-
cans release. The story that the
Americans demanded an apology
for the alleged japanese threat,
is declared untrue.

|OPpOSITION OF Erred
BY CAPITAL LEADER
IL Fundamsntal Principles Pre-.
ssnted To Industrial Confer
ence For Labor Troubles

Washington, Oct. 10 OPPOSE
ton to collective bargaining and
closed shop were among twelve
fundamental principles outlined
by Grouh,, representing capital,
and presented today to the. ma
ftional industrial conference here.
Sympathetic strikes and boycotts
are declared "indefensible, anti
social and immoral" except as, a
last resort, and then only for pr
vate industry. For public utili
ties, the state should impose reg
ulations assuring continuous
operation and at the same time
provide means for promptly hear
ing and adjusting complaints and
disputes. Opposition to strikes
of government employees was ex-
pressed but the right of employees
to be heard should be, "amply
safeguarded."
For the settlement of disputes
in private industry, it was propos-
ed that each establishment be re-
garded as an industrial unit with
adequate machinery for adjust
ment of misunderstanding be-
tween employers and employees,
with both equally subject OF pub
lie authority and legally answer
able for its own conduct or that
of its agents."
The conference adjourned until
next Tuesday. Meanwhile the
general committee of fifteen will
consider proposals made by three
groups-capital, labor and public.

Won Falkenhayn Goes To Bat
With Claims For What He Did
(By Associated Press)

Berlin, Oct. 1O-1n defense OF
his administrative career as chief
of staff Of the German armies in
1915 and 1916, General Erich Won
Falkenhayn denies that German
losses at Verdun were excessive.
He declares they were under
those of the enemy.
German defensive operations at
the Somme, he declares, were ef-
.fctive under his direction whereas
only limited results previously
had been achieved. The successes
of the English and French at the
Somme, he claims, were possible
only because of the Austrian col
lapse which necessitated the dis
patch of heavy reinforcements to
the eastern front. s.,.sss..s. :
Won Falkenhayn declares the
swift success of the Rumanian
campaign which he commanded
after his dismissal as chief of
staff was due primarily to ex-
haustive preparations of the gem
eral staff before his retirement.
Rumania's declaration of war, he
states, was the external pretext
for his retirement although this
move on his Fart was primarily
due to the Vaccinations of other
persons in German military cir
cles, who had been plotting his
overthrow for a long time.
