io'clock today to resume consideration
of Governor Pinchots peace settle
ment plan adjourned at 11:07 a. m.
until p. m. next Wednesday.
| Governor Pinchot at the close of
today's session expressed himself as
much encouraged. The suspension,
however, will continue during the re-

Jernor explained, at the suggestion Of
both sides.
Spokesman for both sides of the
controversy left town Immediately
hereafter declaring their positions
Unchanged.
AsDifferences over the Governors

Labor Day is double celebration
It records Labor's achievements in
securing fundamental rights. 1t also
expresses Labor's determination ia
maintain Labor's policy in every
field of human endeavor. For this
reason, Labor Day, as a national hol-
iday, has deep significance for the
republic.
Our fathers fought and bled in de-
fense of the inalienable rights of life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The government of the United States
was established to protect these
rights. Labor's policy stands for
their practical realization for every
citizen.
Searchlight For The Masses
Labor's policy expresses the ma
terial and spiritual aspirations Of the
masses. Therefore, Labor's policy be-
comes the policy Of the nation in its
search for political and economic
stability and prosperity.
Labor's policy is significant for its
conception Of life, liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness. 1t envisions a
life not limited by the mere nccessi-
ties of physical existence. 1t demands
living standard much higher than
is contained in "cost- of living"
wages.
1t insists that Labor shall have an
equitable share of the wealth in
which Labor's own life energies are
the essential elements. Labor's pol
icy demands life unblemished with
constant worries over threatened
economic insecurity in country over
flowing with actual and potential
wealth.
Liberty ls Lab0r's Policy
Labor's policy stands for liberty
in the broadcst meaning of the term.
Political liberty-liberty to deter
mine freely our political relations
and institutions by the sovereignty
of the ballot under democratic repre-
sentative government. Industrial IL
berty-liberty freely to negotiate
industrial relations without compul-
sion from any source.
Liberty to strike; for the bedrock
of industrial liberty is the right to
quit work. The rights to life, liber-
ty and the pursuit of happiness be-
come academic mouthings when the
right to quit work is impaired.
Labor's policy expresses Labor's
faith in our workers. Faith in their
| ability to demonstrate that within
the fields of representative political
and industrial democracy, organized
Labor is the advance guard of the
masses, driving it's way straight
| ahead of Labor's objective, and strik-
ing down the barriers of reaction
greed and tyranny wherever found
and by whomsoever planted.
Proud of it's achievements, firm in
its determination, sure of its success
American Labor celebrates Labor
Day, 1923, with joy and confidence
and earnestly invites all those who
have faith in American institutions
to join in the celebration.

BRITISH RELUCTANT TO ACT

nkSI ION N6AOS ~
London, Sept. 1.---(By the Associat-
ed Press)-Great Britain will inter
vene actively in the Greco-ltalian
imbroglio only If italy refuses to a.
cept arbitration by the League OF
Nations, the council Of which meets
at Geneva today to consider the
whole critical situation.
It is announced that the govern
ment thus far has not instructed the
British ambassador at Rome or the
diplomatic representatives at Athens
to use their good offices toward {"
settlement Of dispute, it being felt
that the controversy for the moment
is one for the league to decide.
Meanwhile, however the govern.
ment is taking all prudent precau-
tions and measures to prevent Italy
from making her occupation Of Cor
fu permanent. in violation Of the ex-
listing neutrality agreement. Vari-
GUS units of the British Mediterran-
can fleet now released from service
at the Dardanelles are within easy
access of Corfu and in position to
block further moves from Italy If
the Rome government refuses to.
The whole trend Of opinion in Eng
land, however, seems to be strongly
against becoming involved in Near
Eastern complications if it can pos
sibly be avoided.
CALLED TO COECRss
London. Sept. 1.-(By the Associat-
ed Press )-Italian reservists residing.
in London have been notified to hold
