 It was not contemplated that the conference would perform mi racles toward increased produc- tion, neither was it anticipated that profiteering evils would be solved through the deliberations of the conferences. The aim was to restore "the nervous tension of our people which has not re- faxed to normal" as the Presi- dent expressed the thought. And the chances are that considerable progress was made toward that goal.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
The Industrial Conference
(By J. E. Jones'

One of the most important gath erings ever held in Washing 5n in peace times was promised when the industrial conference, assem- ibled at the call of President Will son, was convened in the historic Hall of Nations for the Pan-Amer jean building. Earnest leaders in industrial and economic life and thought, including the lead ing trade unionists of the United States, were brought together in "a council of national pro- gress. /" Such was the definition of purpose furnished by Secreta- " of the Interior Lane, who was chosen permanent chairman of the conference. Describing brief ly the conditions in ''torn up world" " Mir Lane in his opening address said that "the troubles that exist today do not arise ont of mere physical conditions, they arise largely out of the inner warnings of the man himself. ;" And, he continued man wants to be recognized as a thinking man a participant in life. :" The speak CT contended that you cannot standardize men, since every man Is agenius by himself, a condi- tion, he argued, that made 1t i'm possible to make one rule of eff cieney applicable to all
 At the outset of the conference Secretary of Labor Wilson, in the opening address, asserted flat 1t was the right of any man to quit his employment whenever he crose to do so.and 1t was the right of any employer to close dowE his establishment whenever he chose to do so. He told the nem- bers of the conference that It was their duty to help in bringing about condition so that neither the workman nor the employer would resort to these alternatives Mr. Wilson emphasized tie n3rG of industrial harmony. But the aims of the conference were more clearly defined by one of th' western labor delegates, who said unofficially, that it was to pre- vent strikes and check the Bol shevic craziness that has t3llowe( in the wake Of war.

Traditions UEset

There is theory almost old
 enough to be tradition, that labor and capital are enemies. The ogre of Wall Street has been pictured by the same lurid artists of tongue and pen who have held up labor's representatives as univer- sal enemies of civilization. The great American public which has been carried away with this idea, might revise its opinions had 1t
 been privileged to behold the scenes in the great industrial con-

Thou Shalt Not Earn

One of the most extraordinary suggestions, outside the soveit doctrine incorporated in the so- called Plumb plan for running the railroads, is contained in the Cummins bill for the taking over of the railroads under private ownership and management to be operated under Government control. The Cummins bill pro- vides that if any railroad shall earn more in any year than fair return upon fair value" the entire surplus earned shall be taken from the railway company eaning it. It evidently did not occur to the framers of the pro- posed legislation that a penalty would be placed upon increased efficiency, since the legitimate profits earned by any wide-awake and pofitable railroad would accrue to the government. The opinion of Charles Evans Hughes is that such legislation would be unconstitutional, and no matter what may be the individual opin- ion of Mr. Hughes as republi- can leader, the fact is not to be lost sight of that he was very re- gently, ahighly esteemed member of the United States Supreme Court. Therefore his viewpoint concerning this feature of the Cummins bill has been given the most thoughtful consideration on l Capitol Hill.
 Congress has resolved the rail road transportation question into a problem of credit almost entire ly. There seems to be an unwlll- ingness on the part of any law makers to pull the lever open in such way that railroad initia- tive, industry, economy and good management will obtain their best results. One Senator who has progressive ideas upon the subject, puts the problem in a nut shell when he says that "one of the absolutely essential provis- ions in any legislation calculated to solve the railroad problem per manently must be encouragement of efficiency in operation" He adds thatany plan that would take away everything except what the making authority determines is a fair return, would remove all incentive to efficiency after a fair return is made. An other class of Senators and Rep- resentatives, are still playing up on the public prejudices against the railroads and other forms of big business to such an extent that they are unwilling, even in the face of the conviction enter tained by the Administration leaders, and the best republicans Tn Congress, to support measures which the experiences of the h. terstate Commerce Commission and the Railroad Administration show to be essential, if the trans portation systems of the country are to be placed upon a safe and sound basis of operation.

ference at Washington, where there were evidences of respect, and even admiration exchanged between men like JudgeElbert H. Gary and Samuel Gompers, whose basic ideas are far, far apart. Or the scene might have been one wherein the rich John D. Rocke- fellow, .Jr.. and a horny-handed labor leader, visited in manner so friendly that one could easily suspect them as having a real fondness for each other. And there was John Spargo, the social ist. eloquent in tributes to Dr. Charles w. Elliott, while Thomas balanced on different ends of the industrial teeterboard, vied with one another in their attempts to show how free they were from bias and partizanship towards the different groups-asSumlng that their efforts should be jointly di- rected towards obtaining better ment for the whole people.
 There were three distinct groups in the conference, repre- senting capital on the one side, labor on the other, and "the pub lie. " This latter group was SUD- posedly the balance of power, and it's selection President Wilson ev- idently had in mind a choice of men and women-for there were two distinguished women in a group who would stand between radical capital and radical labor which might swerve in their zeal and partizanship to an extent that might prevent capl- tai or organized labor from the purpos6 of attempting to solve one of the greatest human prob lens of the times. President Will son i'll making his call for the con- ference, referred to this, when he said: "The wastages of war have seriously mterfered with the nat ural course of our industrial and economic development, the ner vous tension of our people has not yet relaxed to normal ; There was, therefore, brought together what was supposedly the strong
 est group of people the country
 could produce, who were identi fled with the industrial situation They were asked to devise meth

Since the opening day the steel strike has been watched in it's ev- cry detail by the public men and students of industrial conditions in Washington. The steel indus try has asked for no sympathy, and evidently the public mind is cncerning itself but little regard ing the interests involved in the ownership and management of the industry. But it is a very pa tent fact that Washington is ov- erwhelminglyv convinced that the steel strike is the result of an unreasonable exercise of the pow CT of bad influences over great groups of foreign-born laborers who have centered in this indus try.
