Labo,'s Eleven Points

L FOLLOWING up the suggestion OF B. NJ
Jewell. of the American Federation of
Labor railroad department, in conference
with President Harding few days ago, the
railroad craft unions sent a. note to the Pres
ident stipulating the terms upon which they
are willing to enter Il round-table conference
to settle all difficulties with the railroads,
IN this note the unions ask that all other
conferences on wage reductions that are
pending be suspended until working condi-
tons are worked out at the proposed con-
ference. assurance being given that they
have never and do not now contend for the
continuation OF any rule or rules which
may be unjust or unreasonable" They
then submit eleven stpulatons as involv-
ing principles which must be recognized at
the outset to insure industrial peace
The Willingness Of the unions to enter
rouno-tabie conference with representatives
oil the railroads in an effort to reach settle
mcnt OF all the difficulties of which both
sides complain. and which admittedly are
creating increasingly strained relations be-
tween them, has heretofore been favorably
commented on by this paper. This appa rent
| opeh-mihdedness on the part of the unions
likewise has created n favorable impression
with the public, which is vitality interested
iii seeing better relations established he
tween the two groups
However. it would seem that the stipula-
tons which demand recognition of the prin-
cples set forth. place d limitation upon the
freedom OF the proposed conference by bind
ing II TO accept in advance of discussion con-
clusons at which the unions have already
arrived, some of which. at least arc a mat
ter OF dispute between the two, groups In
sistence. therefore, upon recognition of the
soundness OF the stipulations as prelmi-
nary binding basis before further discussions
can proceed would seem TO be rather an ar
hltrary contention. If the conference is to be
IN the true meaning of the term a round
table discussion to adjust all questions in
dispute.
Rather ii would seem that the unions
can best retain the good impression they
nave made with the public by entering the
conference with open minds on all matters
on which there is variance OF opinion, and
submit the merits of their contentious TO
iuil and frank discussion, in the hope of
Eeconcilins divergent views and reaching
settlement on the merits OF their claims IF

clares that many OF the force, from high
