There was also an almost unanI-
nous agreement among the labor
heads, il is understood, for closer
cooperation between labor and in
dustrial engineers. In this labor
leaders believed they were accom-
plishing the dual purpose of elem
mating waste and inefficiency and
creating an atmosphere which
would foster greater production.
The council was said to have made
pain in its discussion its realiza-
tion of world needs in this respect
and members of the council held
that labor's conduct should be
such that no blame for low output
could attach to the workers.

PEACE DEPENDS UPON
CONDITION OF LABOR

Geneva, Nov. 10 (by the AsSo-
ciated Press) Mandates, open
diplomacy and admission Of former
enemy states to the league of ma
tions furnished todays material for
discussion in the assembly OF the
league of nations. For the first
time the word revision" was pro-
nounced-in connection with arti-
Gle l8 of the covenant of the league
which provides for the registration
OF treaties or international engage
ments. For the first time also the
viewpoint of labor as regards the
league was presented
The views of labor were present
ed by George Nicoll Barnes of the
British delegation, who gained ap-
plause when he declared that "a
general peace is impossible until We
have Industrial peace, and indus
trial peace is impossible until labor
gets its full share of the product OF
its own effort"
Twice again the admission of
former enemy states into the
league was advocated. Labor was
quoted by Mr.. Barnes as in large
majority demanding il. There now
have been represented in the de-
mands for the admission OF the for
Iner enemy states, South Africa,
Great Britain, Switzerland, Argen-
tina and Scandinavia. 1t still ap-
pears, however, that not one of the
delegations is ready to take the ini-
tiative of proposing the election of
Germany to membership.

delegation has said that he will not
do SO, and Honorio Pueyrredon,
