fact that several captains who are known to have shelled the woods in their entire sectors and who have been making frantic cries for more buttons and more cards failed to make their reports.
 Judge Horace C. Wilkinson chairman at the luncheon at the Southern club yesterday, declared that he was very suspicious of several of the teams which reported no new members for the day He wanted to know what they were do- ing with the buttons they had secured and some of the other team captains demanded the buttons from any team which had not made use of them. But no buttons were forthcoming and the impression at the luncheon was that some teams were holding back to make a big showing later in the week and capture the honors for getting the greatest number of members
 All of the committees which reported yesterday announced that they had worked only a small part of the ter ritory assigned to them, but that as fast as they took in new members they were putting them to work and that the entire territory would certainly be covered during the week. The en- thusiasm of the new members, as soon as they are fully acquainted with the purposes of the organization and the work it proposes to do, want to get out and help line up the other ex-service men. Needless to say, they are accom- modated i this request.
 Plans are being arranged by the com mittee for the rousing rally of the legion Sunday afternoon. It is expected thal one of the local theatres will be secured for the occasion and some stirrin3 speeches will be made. The details of thi! meeting have not yet been given ous by tn committee, but it is planned to have all the new members as well as many ex service men who could not be secured during the days of the campaign, to al tend this rally.
 As most of the members of the cam paign committee have been able to devote only a small part of their time each day to the work, the results which have thus far attended the efforts of the teams arc considered highly gratifying. The % operation of many of the merchants ane business men of the city as well as th' interest and encouragement from the peo pie genrally, ar aiding in the work ane are expected to make the drive for mem bers splendid success.

to rue the day that you destroyed the saneness and the willingness to serve that has and does characterize the s11frl- cials of American trade unionism today
 MT. Gompers again sounded note or warning few moments later when ne told the members of the conferences that he feared they did not appreciate the
 critical situation in which we find our selves today. The people of the United States, he asserted, are sitting on lid industrially." Turning toward the em- ployers, he added, whether you like 1t or not, trade unionism has come to the United States to stay.'
 WILL WIN IN END
 Concluding with the statement that although the conference may fail to sat isfy the real needs of the workers, he said, the organised labor movement would continue to flourish, and whatever may. be denied us today, we will win tomor- row" Before adjournment was taken Chair man Wheeler of the employers group, re- ceived permission to file statement of it's grounds for voting for the substitute and against the original collective bar gaining resolution. Mir. Chadbourne gave notice of his intention to do the same for the public group
 MT. Wheeler's statement reaffirmed she employers indorsement of some form of shop organization in which represeuta- tives of the management and representa- lives of the men in the individual estab- Iishment, seelcted in each case from their own number, should meet for full and frank discussion of all phases of the em7 ployment relation Objection was taken to the original resolution on the ground that it recognized police and firemeu unions.

COMPROMISE ATTEMPTED

Members of the public group attempted to effect a compromise by the substitu- tion of the words associations of their own choosing for trade and labor unions in the clause of the groups reso- lution guaranteeing workers the Egh. to
 organize, and the five labor representa- lives on the general committee of 15 spent two hours in joint meeting with the public explaining labors objection to the change. This amendment was introduced by MT Chadbourne, but the public group alone voted favorably.
 When the original Russell Endicott resolution came up for discussion in the conference, Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, de- clared that the withdrawal of the Sllp- port of the public group was due to an interpretation of the words trade and labor unions" by one member of the group who is allied with organized labor and that the phrase excludes all but American Fedora ton of Labor organiza- tions. It was said that the reference was to J. J. Forester alternate for Bert M. Jewell, acting president of the railway employment department of the federation.
 The right to organize for the purpose of collective bargaining, MT Gompers con- tinued, is the one question in controversy the one thing the working people of tho United States are going to achieve
 A hush fell over the crowded audi torium as the labor leader, squarely fac- ing the employers wing and shaking his finger toward that group, exclaimed to the representatives of American capital: "lf you do not bear with us in an effort to- ward construction, if you think it impos- sb1e for us to secure relief for the suf- fering masses of American labor, if you insist on oontesting with us every inch of the ground in our battle for better con- ditions, if you deny us the rights of or ganization, if you render our work finally impotent, you may destroy us but you | will find yourselves facing something else, something worse, and you may come

OLD AGREEMENT EXPIRED

President Lewis then spoke for the miners. The old wage agreement, he declared. had expired, and the opera tors, he charged, had refused to con- sider a new one.
 The ride of the operators was pre- sented by P. H. Penna, of Terre Haute, Ind, who charged that the miners had violated their agreement, that the op-
 orators had adhered to the principles and practices of collective bargaining.
 and that the unions were at fault.
 Then without consulting the leaders,
 Secretary Wilson suggested an ad- journment until tomorrow, as castally
 as if the conference had planned to
 run for week.
 There was no objection, neither side
 desiring to appear in the attitude of
 blocking peaceful efforts by a volun-
 tary mediator but miners and operat-
 ors alike were surprised. NThe general
 feeling seemed to be that the thing
 would be fought over and settled today.
 The secretary, it was said, indicated
 a desire to present the views of the government after each side had been given a full hearing.
 Because of the necessary absence of
 Secretary Wilson the strike was not discussed at the regular cabinet meet
 ing today, but it was the subject ot ScTlOuS QTlNdbo ulSIuSSlOHS dfDOuB Ol ficials generally. Some of them searched the records to see what action was taken in similar disturbances, but everything was held in abeyance until it was determined whether MT Wilson's conciliation efforts would bear fruit. Officials recalled that once during the administration of President Roose- welt when a coal strike appeared cer- tain, miners and operators were shut down they would be immediately opened and operated by the government, with troops on guard, if necessary, to sec that the public got an adequate supply of coal
 Reestablishment of the fuel admin istration, which ceased to function last spring, also was discussed by officials It was contended that the food con tro1 act gave the government full power to require the miners to remain at work, pending adjustment of wage demands.
 It was not thought tonight that the conference would continue in sessior after tomorrow. All government plans waited. therefore, until it's close, witt | full expectation should no results b' obtained the government, through Con gress or other agencies. would step 1T and keep the mines in full operation.

 Pointing out that the matter was
 one of vital concern 70 the people, Se- cretary Wilson explained that as ex-

 duce the miners and operators to see the importance of early adjustment.
 The secretary said he gave full weight
 to the statement of the operators con- cerning contracts, and to the import ance of resembling the strike order and to withdrawal of demands for a thirty hour week, just as he gave weight to the statement of the miners that there
