Mr.. Hoover said he did not favor

use in England. Nothing could be
more dangerous than its introduction
in the United States.
In answer to questions, Mr. Hoover
said there need be no fear of the use
Of strikes as political weapons in the
United States. Although that is a
favorite device of European labor lead
ers and politicians, it never has found
favor with the workers of America, he
said.

have kept it out of the market, he
said'and thus would have kept prices

it last July, it would have gone on

l1abor's Right to Strike
Pessimistic Over Sugar
Present Famine Held Eault
of Palmer; Predicts Two
Years More Of Shortage

From The Tribu,,c's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May Herbert
Hoover, appearing to-day before two
Congressional committees, gave his
opinions on the present sugar shortage
and on the labor situation.
Discussing industrial conditions be-
fore the Senate Committee on Educa-
tion and Labor, MIR. Hoover opposed the
legal regulation of the relations Of cap
tal and labor, the use Of the Injunction
and attempts to deny the right to
strike. He expressed belief that the
industrial court plan worked out in
Kansas would fail in operation.
Mr., Hoover said that in his opinion,
the best thing to do in solving the prob
lem raised by industrial unrest was to
follow the plan evolved by the Presi
dents Second Industrial Conference,
that is, voluntary settlement of indus
trial controversies through cooperative
agreement.
Upholds Strike Right
THE machinery set up in that plan
avoids the dangers and pitfalls Of com
pulsory arbitration and the denial of
the right to strike" said MIR. Hoover
My opinion is that that is the best step
and the only step to be taken until the
whole problem of the relations Of cap
ta and labor has had further develop
ment.'
"What would you do if as member
of Congress you were trying to find a
basis for permanent industrial peace
and settlement of the problems that
now confront us ." asked Senator Ken
yon.
Il would endeavor to work out some
thing like this industrial conference
plan, which is step toward which
. there could be no righteous antagon-
ism replied Mr.. Hoover. "Moderate
labor leaders can have no objection to
this method"
Mr.. Hoover said that the force of
public opinion is the only pressure
which could safely be applied in in
dustrial controversies. He cautioned
against revolutionary steps, the use Of
injunctions, attempts to deny the right
to strike, compulsory arbitration and
industrial courts,
81 do not believe,' said Mr.. Hoover,
that the relationship between capital
"r'U 'f'poI can oe octlieu py any form

ultimately to the Jail as means OF

OF martyrdom and tends to make for

either side who propose revolutionary
steps will not settle the problem"
Mr.. Hoover said that national appli-

idea would in effect substitute gov
