DAVIS HAS PLAN
FOR LABOR PEACE

The aid Of Congress in promoting a
nationwide movement for more
peaceful settlement of Industrial dis
putes was sought by Secretary of La
Dor Davis yesterday.
Mr.. Davis went to the Capitol and
conferred with Senate leaders, ask
ing them to help him get an appro-
priation Of $4,000 to extend the work
of the Labor Department In adjust
ing labor dificulties. Mr.. Davis plan
is to make use Of the legislative ma
chinery for mediation and concili-
alton, but to broaden its scope SO as
to enable 1t to keep conciliators and
mediators at work watching difficult
ties in all basic industries.
The secretary informed Senators
that his department has settled more
than 900 strikes since he took office
and is confident that. with an addi-
tional appropriation Of $500. 900 he
could produce much better results. BY
cutting the number of strikes down to
minimum, he explained, much un-
employment could be prevented.

Miss Talmsdge in this subject

With over 250.000 votes cast in

dow of her Joyous entertainments
But, then, isn't refinement meager
and attenuated virtue, saVoring
more Of the requirements OF the

boarder than Of the amusement
needs Of American vaudeville goers.
And whether you are an admirer OF
