thing Except the One That
Is Logical and Necessary
ASSOCIATED PRESS,

WASHINGTON, July 21-President
Samuel Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor today issued
statement inviting the federal rovern-
ment to urge coal and rail strikers
and employers to enter into direct
negotiations He added that the gov
ernment had done everything except
this one logical and necessary thing
The government had threatened
great deal, has talked about troops
and the rights of the public but it has
not talked effectively about a confer
ence nor has it had anything to say
about the rights of the workers. Labor
Gompers continued, will enter into
such a conference in absolute good
faith and unless the employers are
absolute autocrats, the strikes can be
adjusted quickly.
Legislation to facilitate a settlement
of the rail strike was discussed at a
conference between Chairman Cum
Minis of the Interstate Commerce
Committee of the senate, Senators
Watson and Kellogg and five railroad
executives from New York It is un-
derstood to have been a failure and
those attending the conference said
that a settlement is more than ever
distant.
