the conference Of statisticians in in
dustry today that the organized In
dustries are ready TO take immediate

when it is enacted. The conference was
called by the National Industrial Con-
ference Board.
President Roosevelt is writing new
decalogue for the trade association,
he said in a speech prepared for de-
livery at the conference. If the pro-
gram he now outlines is carried through
we may confidently expect to see an
entirely new concept of the duties Of
management, and of the rights Of In

putting an end to cut-throat compe-
tition.
The legislation in preparation In
Washington is beiated recognition OF
the dire need to regulate production
and prices, for that way only can we
be sure of an adequate wage or stable
conditions of employment"

always produced great charitable move
n1entS and many of our most famous

work has come.
Archbishop Curley showed great in
