ACCEPTS BAT TIE
To WELD TEXAS
Joins Issue With Bailey
Who Recently Came
Out for Governor on
Anti Platform.

Dallas. Tex. March 6.--Democrats Of
Texas supporting the administration Of
President Wilson picked up the gage of
battle hurled down by the anti admin
istration faction led by Former Senator
Bailey.
Meeting here in unofficial state wide
conference, the Woodrow Wilson
Democrats laid plans for an energetic
campaign to send to the national con-
yention at San Francisco a delegation
that will stand "solidly and unreservedls
for the Wilson administration"
A resolution indorsed the national ad-
ministration and a telegram was sent to
President Wilson informing him of this
acton and acquainting him with the
purpose OF the campaign the conference
had decided on.
Thomas H. Ball of Houston. chairman
of the conference, soon will appoint a
state Democratic central committee OF
81 members County and precinct chair
men are to be named throughout the
state.

liar problems have been made. the CON
ference announced, and definite stand
on collective bargaining, the rock on
which the first conference came to
grief, has been taken.
In a preliminary report made public
on December 10, the conference pro-
posed machinery for adjusting disputes
between employees and employers, and
asked for criticisms and suggestions. A
number of men prominent in public life.
as well as representatives of capital and
labor, appeared before the conference,
while individuals and organizations made
suggestions in writing.
Leaves r. r. Case to New Law.
The final report. the conference an
nounced, means some notifications of
the organization suggested in it's preiim-
mary statement. but leaves intact the
national industrial board and the reg
ional boards of inquiry and adjustment.
The final report also deals broadly with
the general field of industrial relations"
and undertakes to prevent industrial dis
putes by recommending elimination Of
the causes of disagreement. Plans for
shop organizations to facilitate yolun-
tary adjustments between capital and la
Dor are suggested.
While no attempt was made to deal
with the railway prob
lem, because of the recent enactment of
the railroad law under which the carriers
will operate under private control. sug
gestions were made regarding other pub
lie utilities.
The report. which contains about 15.-
300 words, will be printed for public
