LABOR TRIBUNAL
URGED BY BRYAN

W. J. Bryan. appearing today be-
fore the Senate labor committee
urged creation of a permanent tribnal
Of investigation for the adjustment
Of labor controversies. The commit
tee is considering legislation to carry
out recommendations of the second
industrial conference.
Mr.. Bryan said he suggested this
tribunal as a substitute for the pro-
posal to establish q federal industrial
court similar to that in Kansas.
Under Mr.. Bryan's plan the tribunal
would have no power to enforce its
findings, but would leave the parties
to the controversy full freedom of
action after their case had been fully
Investigated. The only agency for
enforcement. he said, would be public
opinion.
Investigation Ms Remedy.
. Mr.. Bryan declared his opposition
to the proposed industrial court was
because it was essentially a court of
arbitration, and arbitration. he said,
was not always practicable.
Investigation as a remedy. Mr.. Bryan
said, is nothing more than the appli-
cation of the principles involved in
the thirty peace treaties negotiated
while he was Secretary of State. The
improba bility of any nation going to
war after time had been taken for
thorough investigation. he declared,
was equally true in labor troubles.
