Congressman Patrick Kelley's
Statement on the Pending
Strike Situation

Unexpectedly called upon by
the president to return to Wash
ington to attend the session of
Congress beginning next Tuesday
to deal with the strike situation,
Congressman Patrick H. Kelley,
in the midst of his senatorial cam
paign, at once made arrangements
to leave for the capitol Sunday.
His speaking engagements in
the state have been cancelled
from that date for an indefinite
period.
Naturally, l dislike to have
my tour interrupted at such a
time" said Mr. Kelley in an inter-
view, more especially so in view
of the kindly manner in which the
voters everywhere are receiving
me. But there is where my duty
lies and this is no time to shirk a
duty"
Concerning the present critical
strike situation, Mr.. Kelley issued
the following statement:
Transportation lies at the very
base of our national existence.
No community has sufficient
supply of the necessities of life
to last more than a few days. If
the government fails in a crisis
like this to insure the prompt NOV
ing Of food and fuel to meet the
needs of the people, it fails in its
most elemental functions.
"Tf operators and men cannot
agree on wages, the government
must step in and run trains and
operate the mines. All matters of
dispute between operators and EN-
ployees should. of course, be set
tied on a basis of fairness to all,
but while the negotiations are in
progress the people Of the country
must not be permitted either to
freeze or starve. The president
must act in time to avert imminent
disaster, and he must have the
prompt and full support of the
Congress.
II shall leave for Washington
Sunday and will uphold the hands
of the president with all my
strength"

there had been general agreement
among the cabinet members that the
work now proceeding at Genoa was
going forward largely along lines
which had previously been laid down
by the state department.
By the same administration spokes-

solution of the whole problem which
could be endorsed by this government
might be reached at Genoa. 1t was
added that should the conference fail
the United States would have to go
ahead Independently in adjusting its
relations with Russia.
Our Plan Is Unchanged.

wage award by the industrial court.
Both the Associated Industries-rep-
resenting the employers and Miss
Alice X. McFarland-spe king for the
working girls-told the labor tribunal
that there were holes in the tentative
wage award.
The employers propose to take the
matter into the courts if the award is
not set aside They reiterated their
former position today when they de-
to warrant the court in fixing an in
creased wage.
Workers Are Satisfied
Only in case of immoral or un-
healthy living conditions can the court
take up the wage situation on its own
motion. attorneys for the Associated
Industrial told the court. They con-
employer had been reasonably satisfied
under conditions and that any effort
to increase wages at this time would
Of necessity result in increased living
cost to the public.
Miss Mcfarland took the witness
stand in behalf OF the women workers.
She asserted that the tentative award
was virtually no increase IN wages
and that in many towns the scale is
as high or higher than that fixed by
the court. Miss Mcfarland coItended
that wage of from S12 to S14 4 week
should be established on the basis of
the living cost survey made by the
welfare division a year ago.
The wage award by the Industrial
court recently was S1O.50 for women
