Labor Problem Solution.

AS a possible solution OF the labor
problem Judge Gary suggested publicity.
regulation and reasonable control through
governmental agencies with non-parti-
san and non-sectarian commissions
whose decisions should be subject to
review by the highest courts. He also
suggested laws TO apply TO all economic
organizations exceeding certain numbers
under which both capital and organized
.abor should be placed,

these laws. Each should be entitled to
the same protection and be subject TO
the same restrictions and provisions.

Leaders, He Adds.

Organizations.
SEES SOLUTION IN LAWS

Labor unions are OF no use to any
body except their leaders, are inimical
TO the best interests Of the employee
employer and the general public, and
result only in inefficiency and high
costs, in the opinion OF Judge E. II.
Gary. chairman of the United States
Steel Corporation. who expressed those
views in his address TO stockholders
at the annual meeting in Hoboken
yesterday. Judge Gary had before
unions were unnecessary and unsatis-
factory organizations, but never had he
spoken so plainly and SO emphatically
OF them.
Labor unions may have been justi-
fed in the long past. he said, but at
present "there is in the opinion of the
large majority OF both employers and
employees no necessity for labor unions
and no benefit or advantage through
them will accrue 70 any one except
the union labor leaders"
He reiterated that the steel corpora
on still believes in and stands for the
open shop, but he added. "our opinion
is that the existence and conduct Of
labor unions. in this country at least,
are inimical to the best interests OF the
employees. the employers and the gen
eral public. The natural and certain
effects OF labor unionism are expressed
in three words-inefficiency, high costs

attempted would be the beginning OF

Loan Details Omitted.

Details of the proposed interna-
tional loan for Germany are omitted
from the proposals forwarded to
Washington. The scheme most IA
vored In Germany is that interest on
the loan be guaranteed by 90 per
cent. Of the shares Of Germany's in
dustrial corporations.
Also II was learned that the de-
tails Of Germany's proposals to re
construct the devastated regions Of
France represent a compromise be-
tween the programmes OF the Ger
man labor unions and the German
Government. These proposals consist
OF seven loosely formulated points
and are intended to leave latitude for
French initiative.
