Group Not Homogeneous.

"The public group. as was intended,
differed from the other groups rep
resenting labor and capital in one
important particular. 1t had not the
homogeneity OF interest of either OF
these groups; it represented rather
cross-section of American life. Among
its members were. employers of Ia
Dor, large and small; farmers. CAPT.
talists, representatives of labor, So
cialists and professional students of
social and industrial problems. Not
withstanding this diversity of inter-
est and relation. there was manifest
ed throughout an astonishing amount
of agreement upon the most vital sub
jects. This we regard as a most
hopeful sign for the future and an
evidence of the possibility of unit
ed action in the interest Of theLantire
nation. ssi;YE -
1.-The existence Of the steel strike
had the effect Of focusing interest
and attention upon present. conflict as
against constructive measures and agree
ment for the future, and made the calm
discussion of such constructive meas
ures difficult. Because it was mani
testify impossible to dispose of this
subject by agreement under the rules
of the conference, which required
concurrence of at least majority Of
each of these three groups, the con-
ference decided to defer action upon
the question until the subject of COL
lective bargaining was passed upon.

Comprehensive Plan Needed.

I'VE believe that the experience of
this conference and of similar confer
ences elsewhere clearly shows the
futility of attempting to deal with
this great question in .piecemeal
way. by adopting detached and I'M
related resolutions. The only efficient
mtehod, in our judgment, is that of
formulatg ina comprehensive and
Systematically developed program
I'VE believe that the right of work
ers to organize for the purpose of
collectively bargaining with their en-
ployers through representatives of
their own choosing, cannot be denied
or assailed- AS representatives of the
public we can interpret this right
only in the sense that wage earners
must be free to choose what organiza-
tions or associations. if any, they will
Join for this purpose.
I'm the recognition of the right OF
workers SO organized to be repre-
scented by representatives of their
own choice difficulties will from time
to time arise. We believe that it
would be possible for a properly con-
stftuted arbitral authority to adjust
such difficulties with justice and fair
ness to all aprties concerned

After several days OF earnest en-
deavor and numerous attempts at ad-
justment between the points of view
of the several groups the conference
failed to agree upon this issue. ;
I'm this connection we deem 1t i'm
portant to emphasize the fact that
the conference did not. at any time, re-
ject the principle Of the right of work
ers to organize and to bargain col
lectively with their employers.
Neither the conference as a whole
nor any one group in the conference
opposed that right. The difficulty
that arose and the issue upon which
the conference failed to agree Was
not upon the principle involved, but
upon the method of making 1t ehec-
tive.
I'm our judgment. even this diff
Guilty would not have been insu--
mountable had the conference ap-
preached its task in another way.
obviously, the important principle
of collective bargaining cannot be
sharply separated from other ele-
ments in the great problem of the re-
lation of employers and employed.
The right of organization, the pro-
lection, in the exercise of their law
full rights, of those who seek to or
ganize the workers; the careful def
milton Of the various forms of or
ganiZation through which the right
may be exercised. and the machinery
necessary for adjusting disputes aris-
ing in connection with that right
must all be taken into account in
their proper relation.

Creation of a commission to carry
on the work which the national INDUS
trial conference was unable to accom- :
plisb was recommended to President
Wilson in a final report OF the con-
ference made last night by the public
group Of the Inflated assembly.

point of numbers. but IT would contain
representatives of all interests in the
national life, and its principal TASK
would be to bring about a new rela-
ton between capital and labor ac-
cording to the statement

Collective Bargaining Not Beaten.
Emphasis was placed on the tact
that the right of collective bargain
inE-the issue on which the confer
ence went to pieces-was neither re-
jected by the conferees nor opposed
by any single group. The difnculty
arose over the method of making col
lective bargaining effective. The
stamp of approval was put upon the
plan for Industrial boards submitted
by Secretary Wilson of the Depart
ment of Labor.
A majority Of the public delegates
was opposed to the suggestion from
the White House that the public
group undertake to assume the tasks
which the original conference set out
