Denver, Colo, April ia plan
to combat what he termed "a ma
tion-wide move for the open shop"
which he alleged is being carried
on by employers throughout the
country, is being formulated by
leaders of the American Federation
Of Labor, according to an annoLnce-
ment here by John w. Hayes, sec
retary-treasurer Of the Interna-
tional Typographical union.
Publicity, not strikes, may be-
come our future slogan" Mr.. Hayes
said.
"The plan now under considera-
ton involves the expenditure OF
$2,700,000. As the plan stands il
calls for the publication of two
pages a month in 400 daily newspa-
pers with a circulation Of 10000, ,00C
and of one page month in eight
national magazines with a circula.
ton of 100000.
"The American federation of La.
Dor has reached the conclusion that
it is losing the sympathy and sup.
port Of the people Of the country
through the widespread publicity
campaign carried on by employer
in favor Of the open shop. We havt
decided to adopt the same tactics II
order to win back this support.

English Mine Owners and
Employees Hold Impor-
tant Conference.

London, April 11.-British mine
owners and their striking employees
conferred for an hour at the board
Of trade this morning on a posi-
BILE settlement Of the controversy
which led to the miners walkout
last week. The conference adjourn
ed at noon until 4 o'clock this aft
ernoon. Robert S. Horne, chancel-
lor of the exchequer, presided.
The Times today warned its read
ers against expectation that the
negotiations would proceed smooth
ly, or that work would be immedi-
ately resumed, as the fundamental
differences between the parties
still remained acute.
Estimates Of the cost, including
the loss of unmined coal, unpaid
wages, decreased railway traffic
and the cost of emergency meas
ures. place the bill which the coun'
try is paying because of the strike
at nearly 100000 pounds sterling
a week.
Feel Hopeful.
Leaders Of the triple alliance
of labor viewed the situation today
as being considerably improved
John Robert Clynes, chairman o1
the parliamentary party, being
| quoted as saying he was satisfied
solution Of the problem could b<
found.
The Daily Herald, organ Of La
| Dor. declared 1.-The first round has
been won by labor" adding that re
| ports of rail men opposing the
strike were untrue or grossly exag
gerated.
| Mr.. Lloyd George. the prime min
| :ster. made the suggestion during
the conference today that the own
ers give a full presentation Of theil
case, stating the reasons why the!
considered the wage reduction jus
titled. after which the miners
counter claims should be fully pre-
sented. He proposed that the min
ers then delegate six representa-
tives to meet six representatives o
the mine owners, with, or withou
government representatives pres
ent. ito begin the examination o
Of possibilities, and report to thei
respective constituencies"
Mr.. Lloyd George told the min
ers:
I'VE have definitely conclude,
that we could not recommend t
parliament that we continue payinl
profits to the owners and the own
ers to the men, from the genera
taxes of the country"

THINK NOTE OF
HUGHES CALLS
FOR PEACE MEET
Jap Leaders Are Pau.
ing the Way for
Naval Cut.

Toxic, April 11.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press.)-Newspapers here
gave prominence to the note from
Charles E. Hughes, American sec
retary of state, to the allies rela-
tive to mandates and that over the
island OF Yap in particular. There
has been no official comment, but
in responsible unofficial circles the
opinion is held that the American
note virtually implies another peace
conference.
Statements made by Vice Admiral
Tomosaburo kato, minister Of ma
rlne, last month relative to the
Japanese naval policy are regarded
here as intended to answer charges
that Japan is incurably militaristic
and is insisting on naval expansion.
These statements, which were made
10 the Associated Press. are also
looked on as paving the way for an
international discussion of naval
policies. Representative Japanese
| declared that if the naval race be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States continues Japan must be
Obliged eventually to drop out be-
cause of financial considerations.
II the other powers refuse to cur
tail their naval programs and de-
cline to discuss the matter, the
government is likely to lose the
support Of the nation, which is
clamoring for internal reforms.
Favors Reduction.
| Yukio Ozaki, former minister CT
justice, and one of the leaders ir
the movement for curtailment Of
naval expenditures, delivered lee
lures to great crowds in 15 cities
recently, during a tour undertaken
to explain his stand on disarma
ment. At the conclusion of eacl
lecture he called ON his auditors Il
express their views, and he an
nounced that SO per cent of tn
people who heard him voted in fa7
or OF armament reductions.

statements to The Associated Press

Greatly explained Japan's position

President Harding would call
naval conference. but emphasize
the fact that the real difficult
would come in finding a formui
for carrying out a reduction of nav
al programs.
| The Yomiuri Shimbun Of this cit
declares it is convinced, that N
Kato consulted the cabinet befor
making his statements and there
fore they can be interpreted as EN-
bodying the intentions of the gov
ernment. The newspaper says tha
considering this minister's insist
! lence before the Diet on his projee
for an eight battleship, eight battl
cruiser project, his new declara
, ton was surprisingly inconsister
| and liable to confuse the people a

HARDING MAKES
| GOOD START IN
| FIRST MONTH
Presidey1t Has Work.
ed Very Hard Night
and Day.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus.)

Washington, April 9.-The first
month of the administration. of
President Harding has passed SO
rapidly that to most of the cabinet
officers it has seemed like 4 week.
Viewing the work of the new
regime dispassionately and with a
recognition Of the fact that Rome
wasn't built in day. even the most
ardent partisan will admit that a
start has been made on more prob
lens in the last four weeks than
was possible in the last year of the
preceding administration.
This doesn't necessarily imply
criticism of the officials who tried
hard to make progress in the face
of inevitable friction between Re
publican congress and a Democratic
executive. But it proves that all
branches Of the government are OF
one political complexion, decisions
can be made and things accomp-
lished.
President Harding was looked
upon before his election as a man
or more or less leisurely ways. He
hasn't proved so in Office. He has
worked night and day. He has gone
at his job with a serious and earn
est mind, knowing full we'll that he
must satisfy an impatient elector-
ate. Mr.. Harding himself feels that
he has made headway on many i'm
portant matters but if he were to
speak what is in his heart, he would
tell the American public that the
individual who invented patronage
and the distribution of public Offices
for political activity was really
more Of serpent than the evil gen.
ius of ancient Eden.
Poster Harding.
Mr.. Harding is pestered day and
night by the obligations Of politics
1t isn't that he owes anybody any
thing but members OF the senate
and house must be kept happy and
they are in turn bothered by hungry
constituents. Some idea Of Mr.
Harding's feeling was given John
Kendrick Banks the other day when
he dropped in at the White house to
pay his respects. Long lines o1
people had Just passed through tbs
executive Offices shaking hands
MIR. Bangs said to the presiden,
afterwards:
"It must be tiresome to shake
hands with SO many people" mo
at ALL" replied the president. III
