UNREST EATING
At HEART OF u. S.
Senator Blames Loose
Thinking In Address at
- Convocation.

The revolutionary doctrines that are
sweeping the world are eating at the
very heart OF Americas economic
and Industrial integrity. Unless these
false forces are checked 1t means
the overthrow Of society and the ul-
innate destruction of civilization.
This was the substance of an ad-
dress yesterday afternoon by Sch
ator Miles Poindexter to the students
of George washington University. He
ascribed the communist teachings
and preachments which are creating
the present unrest as due to loose
thinking. As an example he cited
the so-called Plumb plan for the ma
tionalization of railroads. He did
not refer to the plan specifically. but
his words left no doubt as to the
object in mind.
The occasion was the regular fall
convocation of George Washington
University. held in the auditorium
of the Masonic Temple, during which
degrees in course were granted
thirty students. Or. William Miller

to the Industrial conference. He said
in part:
1T seems proper that the group rep
resenting the mass OF the people at
large should undertake that machinery
by which there can be reconciliat ton
or adjustment or peace or n way to
solve any of these problems or all OF
them in the interests OF the great
body of our people,
Americans viii GO Forward.
1T must recognize the fact that the
people of the United States are greater
than any part of the people-that we
are first a body OF Americans. and as
a body. wish 10 move forward no mat
ter what the clash between interests
may be.
And so. gentlemen, the public group
will be asked to make report and
give advice and suggestions as to the
industrial policy of this country, these
to be presented to the President"
One end TO which the public group
will work is that Of determining the
composition of n body for arbitration
and conciliation in industrial disputes.
Members of the pubic group demon
strated on the floor OF the conference
that such n body must be given more
power than has heretofore been given
in the past.

it. The text Of the reservation is
as follows:
The United States declines to ac-
cept any interest as trustee or in
her own right or any responsibility
for the government or disposition
of the overseas possessions of Ger
many to which Germany renounces
her rights and titles to the princi-
pal allied and associated powers
under articles 119 to 127 inclusive"
This reservation Is designed to
exempt the United States from any
responsibility for what may be done
with the islands in the Pacific.
which have been claimed by Great
Britain and Japan.
Reserves Domestic Rights.
The last reservation on the list.
No. -, is to be drafted by Senator
Lodge at the suggestion of Senator
Reed. who appeared before the
committee in support of it. The
reservation will be to the effect
that the United States reserves the
right to withhold from decision by

During the debate on the johnson
amendment. Senator Lenroot. of Wis

inequality of voting, which he said
he would support instead of the
amendment. Senators Colt, Of Rhode
Island. and Edge. of New Jersey,
also announced they would support
n reservation or the question, but
amendment.
Senator Lenroot's proposed reserva-
tion is as follows:
no obligation TO be bound by any
election. decision or finding of the
council or assembly in which any
member or its self-governing domin-
ions. colonies or parts OF empire have
in the aggregate more than one vote
or in case of any dispute between
the UniteJ States and any member
in which such member. or any self
governing dominion. colony. empire
Or part OF empire united with 1t po-
litically snail have voted
Johnson speaks.
Senator johnson made strong
speech in favor OF the amendment,
in which he took the ground that
it was surprising to him that the
proposition of giving the United
States less votes than are given 70
the British Empire should have any
defenders. He said when he offered
the amendment he took 1t for grant
ed that every Senator. as a matter
of pride and patriotism. would be
for It. The opposition which has been
developed against the amendment
amazed him. Senator johnson said.
He characterized II as reflex of
the war" and said that three years
ago or three years hence such a pro-
posal you'd be laughed at by every
loyal American.
From the way the debate on the
amendment is dragging. it looks as
though there will not be a vote on
II before Saturday.

dertake to fight together.
How the leaven is~now working
is shown by the efforts being made
by the steel strikers to secure ac-
tive assistance from the railroad
brotherhoods. and the movement of
the coal miners to secure the CO.
operation of the railroad brother
hoods in bringing about the nation
alization of both the railroads and
the coal mines.
Farmers Join Labor.
The farmers have already Joined
hands with the railroad men and
the miners in support of the Plumb
plan. Endorsement of the Plumb
plan. it may be noted. means a great
deal more than a fight for the
recognition of the right to organize
or the right to bargain collectively.
1t means a share in the manage
ment. and an enforced control of
profits.
Now that the conference has brought
the railroad employees. the ORGANIZED
union men and the farmers together,
II is expected that the executive coun-
Gil of the American Federation OF
La Dor will be more likely to give final
endorsement, hitherto withheld. to the
Plumb plan for characterization Of the
railroad industry.
While the industrial conference. by
reason of the negative vote of the en-
ployer group, turned down the resolu-
tion declaring for collective bargain
ing. that principle has nevertheless
been given a great impulse. This is
admitted by the more conservative
members of the conference. and was
expressed by the following statement
of Chairman Harry A. Wheeler of the
employer group:
Bargnining to Grow.
The principle of collective bargain
ing will come to be more generally
applied as a result of this conference" ."
The public group resumed its de-
liberations late yesterday afternoon.
