THE WASHINGTON CONFERENCE

President Wilson has issued a call
for national congress of organized
labor and "those who direct labor,''
which means, Of course, the employers.
1t is expected that this conference
will be held late in September, which
will bring it just ahead of the intcrna-
tional industrial congress to be held in
Washington under the terms of the
peace treaty.
If there is any one thing that the
American trade unionist is eager for
it is for the opportunity to state his
case and to seek settlement of disputes
by negotiation.
1t is an error to suppose that organ
lied labor courts the strike. 1t uses
the strike as a weapon of last resort
Because it is a weapon Of last resort
it must be clear that other means Of
arriving at settlements are preferred.
Nobody likes to use his last argument,
or his last weapon.
This national conference that the
President is calling will be platform,
it is to be hoped, for truth and van
tage ground for justice in industry. If
democracy in the relation between
worker and employer can make some
gain through this conference it will
be WELL
Every American will hope for the
fullest and frecst discussion and for
the greatest possible good for the use

10 argue that such profits should
involve commensurate risk is to ask
that the employees, in event Of diff
icit, be deprived of portion of their
wages. 1t is to ask that the employees
assume burden that private capital
has never borne. If the deficit is caused
by bad management, the lease should
be forfeitable, and so is under the
Plumb plan; so now, under present

railroad investments that have been
foolishly administered.
