Ledoux Beck From Capital
Sees Better Labor Situation
Here Than When He Left

Urban Ledoux returned yesterday
from the trip he took to Washington
with a number Of unemployed men, and
went to st. Marks Chapel, In East
Tenth Street, to see how the work was
going there.
He was sorry to see. he said, that
with cooler weather coming on there
still were men who had no roof tt
cover them, but he thought the situa-
ton was better than when he went tc
Washington. A disappointing feature Of
it was, ne said that there still was nc
shelter for the unemployed at churche:
here except at st. Marks Chapel.
In Washington, he said, he estab

cussions OF multifarious subjects. 1t is
essential that the conferees should re-
Slst this temptation and have restricted
definite agenda.
The agenda are in the hands of the
United States and I hope she will keep
control Of them. America could not have
chosen two subjects of more urgent
common interest than disarmament and
the Pacific. But even within these
limits the conference cannot hope to
institute g permanent international
regime for the limitation of armaments
OF to determine the social future of mil
lions Of human beings in China and
Siberia.
What We can do IS to take up certain
keenly felt problems of the Far East,
for which an early solution is desired.
we must move in the region OF ascer-
tanned facts, not doubtful predictions.
Outside OF such limits it is, of course,
inevitable that all the statesmen who
visit Washington VIII wish TO take ad-
vantage Of an opportunity afforded BY
their presence TO discuss other questions.

LONDON, Oct g. The most i'm
portant thing for the approaching Wash
ngton conference to avoid is the funda-
mental mistake which has character
lied too many recent international meet
ines. This mistake is the subtle one Of
taking too broad view and attempting
10 do too much.
At the end Of the World War the
nations were obsessed by very natural
and very nobie desire to institute a new
world order, and the results have been
what they always have been when
statesmen tried to build everything
except foundations.
Every one knows the history Of the
first wasted weeks of the Paris con-
ference, when statesmen huttered from
subject to subject without either det
mite agoDda or accurate knowledge Of
expert work already accomplished on
various problems.

 In the past year there have been added S9S new electricity customers and 58 new gas customers, a total of 45s. AS not over 55 per cent. of the houses in the city are at present wired for electricity, it is apparent how great a field there is for the local plant in obtaining new custom CTS as the number of users of electricity increases and when new residences are built. Although new building has been almost at a standstill in the city in the past year, there is a substantial increase in the number of new customers shown.
 It has been arranged with the gas and electric commissioners that the mayor is to have monthly reports in the future on the business of the municipal lighting plant.
