PARLEY FAILS TO
SETTLE STRIKE
Marine Leaders and Cabinet
Adjourn Without Reach
ing Agreement.

Despite assurances from the White
House at the conclusion of yester-'
days Cabinet meeting that the ma
rine strike would be settled last
night. the conference OF strike lead
ers and government officisls broke
up last night without an agreement.
After an all-morning session
with the strike leaders and the Cab
retary of Labor Davis called in Ad-
miral Benson. chairman of the
Shipping Bolrd, when the confer
ence with the lstrike leaders was re-
sumed late yesterday afternoon.
Admiral Bens,n later left the con-
ference apparently in an angry
mood. His only comment was:
Il nave nothing to say and no
predictions to make"
We are hopeful" was the state
mett of Secretary Davis, at the close
OF the days negotiations. He said
the enforcement. will oe resumed to-
day.
Representatives of the seamen as
serted the refusal Of Admiral Ben
son to give in on the question of
how certain rules as to overtime pay
and hours should be applied prevent
Gu an several OF lnem
declared they felt no nearer a set
Element than before.
Andrew Furuseth. president of
the international Seamen's Union.
said because of the unyielding atti-
tude of the Shipping Board. he be-
lieved no result could come out of
the present negotiations. Meantime.
according to MIR. Furuseth. hundreds
of thousands of dollars worth OF
damage is being done to Shipping
Board vessels. and the lives of pas
sengers imperiled by attempting to
put to sea with inexperienced crews.
1t is known now that the strik-
ing seamen will accept the is per
cent reduction decreed by the
Shipping Board IL they can obtain
certain concessions with regard to
hours. overtime pay and working
conditions. Secretary Davis is
hopeful that a final settlement of
disputed points and the ending of
the strike will be accomplished at
tomorrow's conference.
The loss in trade and in damage
to American vessels since the strike
began on May / is estimated by the
strike leaders at not less than $751;
0O0. 900.

The question OF providing q con-

The point is. naval oficers de-
clared. that the Presidents yacht on
such long cruise ought to have
an escort of honor. 1t was said
there Is no question of the ability
OF the Mayiower to make the trip
as safely as did her old namesake

Some OF the naval officers believe
that the same policy should be fol-
lowed as that in the time of Presi-
dent Taft when he had an armored
cruiser convoy on his voyage to

Discussion of the question yester.
day served to emphasizes the fact
that Secretary of the Navy Denby
has no yacht. Former Secretaries
have had the Dolphin, and the htti,
