shiugton. ID. C.. March III.


President Harding. through Secre-
tary OF Labor James J. Davis, has
taken a hand in the impending strike
of employees OF the great packing
houses.
Following a conference at the White
House. Secretary Davis sent duplicate
kilograms to the five big packing COM
panies and TO the representatives of
their organized employees requesting
an early conference of both factions
with the Department of Labor. The
kilograms said:
"The Federal Government is deeply
concerned about the maintenance of
industrial activities in fullest under
standing and hopes there VIII be no
interruption of the continuity of en-
ployment IN the great packing indus
tries If the Department of Labor can
be helpful in promoting understanding
and can aid in any way TO avoid the
cessation Of operations, such services
BY this department will be given most
gladly.
"The whole problem of industrial re-
adjustment Is of such widespread pub
tic concern that the Department of La
Dor. with the knowledge of the Depart
ments Of Agriculture and Commerce, re-
quests that two representatives OF labor
engaged in the packing industry will
report TO this department to make pos
sibe such inquiry into the situation as
may prove helpful in leading TO a just
and satisfactory solution.
II am sending a like request TO the
employers. and am acquainting them
with this request to you. Surely there
must be a Just solution. and the good
Offices OF this department are rendered
in the hope OF finding that solution 50
essential to the promotion OF the CON-
mon good"
This move is the first made by the
new Administration in a threatened
policy TO be pursued. Secretary DAVIS.
the President and other members Of the
Cabinet are intent on keeping the in
dustrial machine running and speeding
production and general industrial activ-
IT'S
The Government stand was deter
mined at the Cabinet meeting to-day.
Earlier in the day Secretary Morrison
of the American Federation OF Labor
laid before the Labor Department and
the President a protest hy the organized
employees against alleged violations by
the packers In ordering reduction IN
wages Of a wage agreement that was TO
run until one year after the declaration
of peace.
The New York herald., 1921-03-12

The allied nations are being kept In
complete suspense regarding the ma
ture of the foreign policy of the new
Administration, according 10 informa-
tion coming from diplomatic sources.
The Harding Administration is not
disclosing its hand and probably will
not do so until II has completely
formulated the policy II will pursue.
Meantime efforts Of foreign diplomats
are being centred on the task of keep
ing their governments advised of what
is going on in the minds of President
Harding. Secretary Of state Hughes
and Chairman Lodge Of the Foreign
Relations Committee Of the Senate. all
of whom are working In complete har-
mony.
Up to this time the most astute
diplomats have been unable to break
down the barrier OF reserve which the
Administrat ton is maintaining.
This attitude is natural European
affairs are in a mobile state. bringing
about new situations daily and threaten
ing still newer ones. The American
policy will be predicated on whatever
degree of stability will result or upon
the conclusion that no stability can re-
suit until America has readjusted her
relations with Europe
