HOPE ARBITRATION
WILL AVERT STRIKE
OF GARMENT WORKERS

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-HOpe of
averting the garment strike, involv-
ing more than 10000 workers, next
Monday, was revived today with a
meeting between Secretary of Labor
Davis and a committee of employers,
scheduled at Washington, and a dis
play of Cancellation on the part of the
workers made to United States SEN
ators striving to prevent the strike.
Louis Lustig, secretary of the cloak,
suit and skirt manufacturers associa-
ton, announced last night that a com
mittee representing the association
would confer this morning at Wash
ington with Secretary of Labor Davis
on working conditions in the garment
trade. The committee was appointed
at the suggestion of Secretary Davis,
he said
Benjamin Schlessinger, president of
the International Ladies' Garment
Workers, in a letter to United States
senators who had urged the manufac-
turers to postpone their new working
conditions for the trade for two weeks,
offered the manufacturers a PROPOSE
| tion which, if acceptable, would defer
action by either side until the middle
of next January
Working Conditions Explained.
! The new working conditions which
the manufacturers proposed to put in.
/ to effect next week included piece
/ work and an increase in working
! hours from II to 40. The New York
union workers voted almost unanim
ously to strike next Monday as a re
suit. President Schlessinger in his
letter said that a bipartisan commits
sion was created last June to consid
er means of increasing production in
, the trade and report on Nov l. The
: commission has never reported, he
said.
The strike would be called off i'm
mediately he declared if the manufac
turers would consent at once to con
tinue operations under the existing
agreement while the joint commission
resumes its work and makes definite
recommendations on Jan. Is. If the
manufacturers should refuse the strike
would be forced, he asserted.

Endless Stream Of Humanity Honors U. S. Unknown Soldier

Americas unknown soldier" rep
resenting the thousands of Americas
youth who gave their lives in the
World war, lies at rest in Arlington
National cemetery after receiving the
greatest tribute a nation could pay.
The sincerity of this tribute was
shown clearly when the body. resting
on the catafalque that had held three
presidents, and lying beneath the
stately dome of the nations capitol,
received the homage-and heart-words
of President Harding, leading Ameri-
can and foreign statesmen and war
riors and plain private citizens. Dur
ing the entire day that the body rested
there a steady, endless stream of
mourners filed past it. In this line
were fathers, mothers and friends of
boys who had fallen in the world con-
flict To many who lost their loved
ones the unknown soldier represented
their boy"

Especial to the Palladium

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 12-Com-
plants were filed in federal court mere
today by United States District Attor-
ney Van Nuys, asking injunctions CLOS
ing five road houses near Terre Haute,
which were charged as having been
operated for several months in Tag
rant violation of the Volstead prohiol-
ton enforcement law.
Judge Anderson declined 10 act
without notice to the proprietors OF
the places and set Nov. 10, for hear
ing on the District Attorneys request
for temporary restraining order.
The actions were brought under a
section of the Volstead law provided
for abatement of common nuisances
The five places were referred to in
the complaint as so-called soft drink
parlors, but it was alleged that intoxi-
eating liquors had been sold in them
for months.
The court was asked to issue injunc-
tions closing the places for one year,
or until such time as bond is given

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-The text
of President Hardings address at the
opening of the conference on limita-
ton of ornaments follows:
Mr.. secretary and members of the
conference, ladies and gentlemen: It
is a great and happy privilege to bid
the delegates to this conference a
cordial welcome to the capital of the
United States of America 1t is not
only a satisfaction to greet you be-
cause we were lately participants in
a common cause, in which shared sac
rifices and sorrows and triumphs
brought our nations more closely to-
gether, but it is gratifying to address
you as the spokesman for nations
whose convictions and attending ac-
tions have so much to do with the
veal or woe of all mankind.
1t is not possible to over appraise
the importance of such a conference.
1t is no unseemly boast. no disparage-
ment of other nations, which, though
not represented, are held in highest
respect, to declare that the conclu-
sions of this body will have a signal
influence on all human progression
the fortunes of the world.
Shows Awakening
Here is a meeting, | can well be,

awakened conscience of twentieth
century civilization. 1t is not a con.
vention of remorse, nor a session of

victors to define terms of settlement
Nor is it a council of nations seek

of the world, to apply the better at

Speaking as official sponsor for the

is not of the United States of America
alone, it is rather the spoken word ot
a war-wearied world, struggling fol-
restoration, hungering and thirstine
for better relationship; of humanity
crying for relief and craving assur
ances of lasting peace.

their recognition through common un-
derstanding.
New Aspirations
Out of the cataclysm of the world
war came new fellowships, new con-
victions, new aspirations. 1t is ours
to make the most of them. Asworld
staggering with debt needs its burden
lifted. Humanity which has been
shocked by wanton destruction would
minimize the agencies of that des-
truction. Contemplating the measure
less cost of war and the continuing
burden of armament, all thoughtful
peoples wish for real limitation OF
armament and would like war out
lawed In soberest reflection the
worlds hundreds of millions who pay
in peace and die in war wish their
statesmen to turn the expenditures
for destruction into means of con
struction, aimed at higher state for
those who live and follow after.
1t is not alone that the world can
not readjust itself and cast aside the
excess burdens without relief from
the leaders of men. War has grown
progressively cruel and more des
tructive from the first recorded con
flict to this pregnant day, and the re
verse order would more become oul

Cotton Prices Rise
On Export Demand
AndPoor CropNews
Realizing Sales Check Adj
vance, but Market Closes
Steadier, With tho Near
Months Showing Strongest

The effect of an improving export
demand was intensified by less favor
able Texas crop advices in the cotton
market yesterday. Early advances car
rying the market into new high ground
for the movement met enough realizing
to cause moderate reactions, but trade
buying seemed to improve on the set
back and the late market was firm with
the close steady, net unchanged to
20 points higher. The logical influence
of the increased spot demand was re-
fected in the relatively firm ruling of
near months, and July showed the
maximum gain, closing at 1882, COM
pared with 1915. the low record estab
lished on June 20.
The better tone reported in the domestic
goods market doubtless contributed to the
advance but the strong showing of Liver
poe with the increased spot business
demand in the South and the rains in the
Southwest considered the chief fac
tors on the advance.
The indisposition to sell short was evil
dent in the way business tapered off
this moderate setback, however. and some
months made new highs for the day in
the late trading when December sold at
1859. Closing prices were within few
points of the best.
Further switching from near to late
months was a feature of the trading again
to-day and including buying of March
against sales OF May by New Orleans in
terests. The sharp break in sterling
change tended to modify the influence OF
the higher Liverpool cables. but the spot
sales in Liverpool, amounting to 1900
bales. suggested that Lancashire would

sulting from the decreased value of the
pound. The Liverpool spot GALES include
1900 bales for export fact which seemed
to emphasize Paris cables claiming an i'm
provement in the textile industry In
France.
Southern spot markets as officially re-
ported were 20 to 40 points higher with
a moderate but better distributed volume

The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and II points higher at 1910 for

Wrong Once, Ready for More

Question: an holding two Cities serv-
ice $1,000 debenture y bonds, also four
shares of common stock of he com
pany. Would you think 1t safe invest
ment to buy Of the common stock at
the present market price, which is less
than half the price | bought my four
shares att have no experience in stocks
and bonds, this being my first venture,
but think that Cities Service will come
back again. O. M.
Answer - You have no experience
with stocks and bonds, you say, but
you think Cities Service common stock
will come back. You were wrong once
in this speculation, and now you are
willing to risk more punishment. Your
case explains why we do not advise
about speculation. 1t is absolutely no
use. People are uncannily wise when
they win, and when they lose they still
think they are RICH. and rush right in
for more. IF we were able to say that
Cities Service stock was a good spec
ulation at present levels, with any as
surance, we should count ourself q
prophet and a seer The fact is we do
not know what the stock will do.

Rail Stocks Proved Unfortunate

Question-Some five years ago 1 bought
fifteen shares each Of New York Central and
Baltimore & Ohio common stock. l paid
80 for New York Central and 90 for Balti-
not paid dividends for the last four years.
Do you think it likely that 1T will in
the near future? Do you think the New
York Central will continue to pay divi-
dends? I did not buy these stocks as a
speculation. but as an investment, and put
of purchase. Would you advise me TO hold
or sell?-M. *.
Answer-We would advise you to sell
both your Baltimore & Ohio common
and New York Central common, and
this advice illustrates q point that many
investors do not fully understand. We
think that the New York Central com
mon stock has good chance to con-
tinue paying its dividend. and possibly
to increase considerably in market
price. We think the Baltimore & Ohio
situation much more doubtful We adj
wise the sale of both, however, because
to hold either is speculation, and what
you say you require is an investment.
Holding on to the one might be an at
tractive speculation and holding on to
the other an unattractive speculation,
but both are speculations and are by
no means suitable for about all the
savings that man has. By investing
ir some of the high grade foreign
bonds which we often recommend in
these columns you can get a yield Of
between Z per cent and 8 per cent, and,
in our opinion, high degree of safety.
