OUTPUT

IN MILWAUKEE, TALK
(By Associated Press

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Sept 20-The
obvious remedy for self-imposed re-
strictions on labor output is a guaran-
teed minimum of employment to every
worker, declared the Rev John A.
Ryan. of the Catholic University,
Washington, D. c., addressing the ma
tional conference of Catholic char
tiles last night.
Restricted production by labor un-
ions was classed with poor industrial
management by the speaker as a
source of economic loss which could
be prevented He declared, however,
that labor could not be censured for
its efforts. although faulty, to make
employment go around, while no eff
fort was being made to end the causes
which led to such steps.
While rates and materials have in
creased throughout the United Staes, -
he said.'' production has also in
creased to such an extent that it is
very marked in certain localities. In
almost every industry where labor is

JAP PAPER FORESEES
ACCEPTANCE OF U. s,
PROPOSAL ON ACENDA
(By Associated Pressl

TOXIC, Sept. 20-Belief that the
Japanese government is inclined on
the whole to accept the American sug-
gestions regarding the agenda for the
forthcoming Washington conference
on limitation of ornaments and prob
lens of the Pacific is expressed by the
Asahi Shimbun in an article today
At first, it says, the cabinet members
were strongly of the opinion that JAP
an should positively insist upon the
exclusion of accomplished facts and
also of questions affecting particular
powers, but, it declares, more moder-
ate views prevailed and insistence
upon these points was transformed
into an attitude described as Japan's
wishes" in this connection.
The newspaper predicts that the
Japanese government will not alto
gether object to the discussion of mat
ters previously cited as things to be
avoided.
Rail Rates Included
1t is understood that in addition to
the subjects previously outlined the
American suggestions regarding the
agenda include discussion of prefer
ential railroad rates as applied to both
| China and Siberia. This, coupled with
the general topic of concessions, mon
opolies and preferential economic
! privileges has strengthened the i'm.
preston already existing that broad
economic questions will form an i'm
/ portant phase of the Washington de
liberations.
These questions vitally concern
Japan. which has not yet recovered
( from the post war economic setback
! and which is striving to solve the
problems of the high cost of living
and the high cost of labor. Her hopes
! for trade. economic authorities argue
| lie in China and Siberia, and there
fore, they consider. she would probably
welcome discussion of far eastern
economic problems as in line with hel
desires to obtain assured sources o.
food and raw material supplies and
markets for her manufactured articles
Concerning the limitation of nava
ornaments, the. suggestion of the
United States, it is understood, was
that the discussion be divided unde
the headings of the basis of limita
ton. the effects of limitation and tn
fulfillment of limitation

ULSTER AIDS
PEACE MOVE
SAYS CRAIG
Premier, Explaining Stand on
Proposed Conference, Says
Nothing Can Be Given
Away.
new IRISH NOTE sent
(.By Associated Press)

BELFAST, Sept. 20.-Sir James
Craig the Ulster premier, explaining
to the northern parliament today us
ter's position with regard to the pro-
posed conference looking towards
peace in Ireland maintained that
while it would be impolitic to refuse
to enter conference in order to pro-
tect the interests of Ulster. neverthe-
less Ulster had nothing to give away
in such conference.
The parliament of Ireland opened its
peace session here today with full
attendance of the Unionist members.
Neither the Nationalists nor the Sim
Feiners, who hold. a total of II seats,
were in attendance. The session was
held in the building which was former
ly the Belfast college of the Presby-
terian church.
The main business of the day was
motion to approve the purchase OF
Stormont castle as the site of the new
parliament buildings. A select COM
mittee also was named to consider
the question of the denomination OF
the cabinet ministers.
LONDON, Sept. 20-Premier Lloyd
George had before him today at Gair-
loch, Scotland the Sim Fein sugges-
ton that representatives of the Brit
ish cabinet meet Sim Fein delegates
in a conference untrammeled by con-
ditions. The latest note exchange be-
tween the prime minister and Eamon
de Valera sent yesterday by the Irish
leader to Mr.. Lloyd George, did not,
however except possibly by implica-
ton, withdraw the offending para
graph of the Sim Fein note of Sept.
u, in which the sovereignty of the
Irish state was asserted and which led
Mr.. Lloyd George to cancel his invita-
tion to a conference.
See Desire for Peace
AS viewed here the latest Irish note
| was conciliatory in character and ii
seemed to place upon the prime min
lister the choice of holding free con
| ference, or insisting that southern Ire.
land formally express its allegiance
! to the British crown.
1t was generally believed that the
note sent TO Mr., Lloyd George yester
/ day marked a step which would tend
to relieve the situation of some of the
! tension which developed late last
week and threatened to end, for q
time at least, any hope of an early
settlement of the Irish controversy.
| Lloyd George Recovering
| The prime minister is rapidly recoy
ering from the indisposition which
confined him to his rooms at Gairloch
and it seemed probable today that be
fore replying to Mr.. de Valera he
would confer with several members ot
the cabinet who are in Scotland.
1t was reported that private tele
grams had passed freely between Dub
lin and Gairloch and that Mr.. Lloyt
George had kept in close touch will
sentiment among the ministers whC
were in this city. He was said to bt
disposed to move slowly in dealins
with the Irish situation, which is ad
mittedly of considerable gravity, bu
it was believed generally that h,
would almost certainly nullify tn,
steps already taken in search of
formula leading toward peace in Ire
land.

MINERS MEET
TO FIGHT CUT
IN COAL WAGE
United States and Canadian
Miners Assemble in Indian
apolis-Will Not Agree to
Decrease.
LEWIS STANDS FIRM
CBy Associated Press,

. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Sept 20. -
Delegates from the coal fields of the
United States and Canada assembled
here today for the opening of the BIZ
ennial convention of the United Mine
Workers of America, which is to con-
slder many important questions affect
ing the coal industry during the next
fortnight
Organization preliminaries, includ-
ing the ceremonies of welcome, occu-
pied the opening program. but in the
afternoon President John L. Lewis ex-
pected to present his report, including
recommendations for action by the
convention
Indications were that the delegates
consideration of the problem to come
before them then would be deferred
until late in the week so that other
international officers might present
their reports Governor Warren t.
McCray and Mayor Charles Jewett
were on the opening program as
speakers, welcoming the miners 10
this city
Consideration of the wage question,
unemployment, the employment of for
! elgners in the mines and nationaliza-
| ton of the mines are among the more
important questions expected to come
| before the convention.
| Opposes Wage Cuts.
! No wage reduction of coal miners
| must be permitted and all desources
! of the miners union must be made
available to back up the policy in op-
position TO wage cuts, John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine Workers
of America, declared here today in
/ mis- report made at the opening of the
biennial convention of the interna-
tional union.
NO wage reductions have been
/ taken, and it is our high purpose to
continue this policy" declared MI.
Lewis. He also recommended a post
ponement until next February of the
miners adoption of definite wage de-
i mands, and declared that with all
wage agreements expiring on March
81. 1922, 'the full influence and eco
| nomic power of our great member
ship may thus be utilized to the ad-
vantage of our people, for the achieve
ment of our ideals
Wage Most Important.
Much of Mr.. Lewis's 10000 word
report related to the wage question,
apparently indicating that this would
be among the most important busi-
nesses of the convention, which
brought between 1900 anil 1900 repro
sentatives of local unions scattered
throughout the United States, West
ern Canada and Novia Scotia. Aside
from the wage question, Mr.. Lewis
asked the convention to administer a
rebuke to Robert H. Harlin, of Seattle,
> Washington, and Frank Harrington,
president of the Illinois miners, who,
Lewis charged, had circulated false
statements about the union. He also
: asked the union to indorse the Inter
, national board, which he said Alex
ander Howat, president of the Kansas
J Miners organization had defied in
: not complying with the boards order
, for strikers to return to work.
