!. jim FARLEY

Plutocracy must go, if American
Democracy is to survive, James
A. Farley, Chairman of the Demo
cratic National Committee, told
"a governors and 531 presidential
electoral college members here
last night as members of the cabi-
net and a thousand inaugural
guests gathered at a dinner in
the Mayflower Hotel at which
Farley was honor guest.
Farley flayed reactionary critics
of President Roosevelt, and warned
the Democrats not to permit vic
tory to lead to overconfidence
that has brought defeat in the
past. He said:
"That invariably has been due
to the fact that in jubilatiOn
the party has overlooked its
solemn responsibilities. That, I
pledge you, we shall not do"
Further warning that Demo
cratic enemies expect to divide
the party and restore Government
to their power, Farley continued:
There will be no divided
columns. There is not a man
in America with a knowledge Of
politics who does not know that
the American people are de-
manding that our forces shall
continue to follow the enlight-
ened leadership of vision that is
ROOsevelt's. Wherever he goes
we follow: we know the voice
of but one commander.
"And so it is with q feeling
Of SOlemnity that we dedicate
ourselves on the eve of the new
Administration to proving our.
selves worthy Of the brilliant
leadership that is ours and of
the aWe-inspiring confidence Of
the Nation"

MISS PERKINS,
MURPHY ACT
IN STRIKE
Nine-Hour Conference
Fails to Rech Agree
ment With Lewis
BY EDWARD B. LOCKETT
Copyright, 1897, by International
News Service)


Far back of the fanfare and
trumpeting of an inaugural, Mich
igan's red-headed govrnor and the
Secretary of Labor today moved
in a new, determined step to
bring peace in the General Motors
strike. .~.
While the inaugural parade
marched triumphantly in Penn
sylvania Avenue, Secretary Of
Labor Frances Perkins and Gov.
Rank Murphy called in a major
figure in the labor strife for q
conference. On this conference,
scheduled for late today, they
hcped to make peace in the auto
motive industry.
Conferences Fail
Thus far, many conferences
have proved abortive. At first,
Murphy maneuVered United Auto
mobile WorkerS-the Strikers-and
General Motors officials into 3
meeting. This collapsed in
charges of bad faith after less
than five minutes.
And finally, Murphy brought
his troubles here for a meeting
with the Secretary of Labor. John
L. Lewis, chairman of the Com
mittee for Industrial Organiza-
ton, backing the strike which has
paralyzed General Motors, was
called in.
Lewis Leaves Silently
This meeting lasted nine hours,
and ended with all participants
showing the strain, but no re-
suits. Lewis left with no COM
ment. Miss Perkins offered moth
ing whatever in the shape Of
prospects. All was calculated to
divert attention from the meet
ing today. ,
Miss Perkins told reporters last
night that no conferences were
planned Immediately" but it was
learned she and Murphy have
called in an important figure in
General Motors for a meeting to-
day.
The conference was between
Miss Perkins, Murphy, Lewis and
Labor Department Conciliator
James F. Dewey, who has been
in the strike zone as an observer.
Denies President Called
Miss Perkins said that both labor
officials and General Motors chief
tains had been on the telephone
and she specifically denied that
President Roosevelt had been
called. She went into a separate
room to make her telephone calls
to officials of General Motors in
Detroit.
Another effort will be made TO-
day toward settlement, and both
Miss Perkins and Governor Muir
ply felt they would make some
progress.

100000 Now Idle
Despite the sound and fury Of
a presidential Inauguration the
entire country continued to
watch the General Motors strike
situation. This already has
; brought enforced idleness to
200, 900 workers in the auto and
allied industries, throughout
Michigan and other key States.
Something new in labor demon
strationS-a ''Sit-down" strike on
: Capitol HiIl-may develop tomor-
row unless the walkouts in the
q Michigan plants of General Motors
Corporation are settled today.
This word came today from Bal
timore, where $500 employees of
the Chevrolet and Fisher Body
plants there voted last night at a
mass meeting to march on Wash
ington" if the Government fails to
intervene in the Michigan stu
alton.
Called to combat unionization in
the Baltimore plants. the meeting
noiSily insisted that General Mo
tors employees in the Maryland
city are satisfied with working
conditions and do not want to
belong to union"
Charges Of the United Auto
mobile workers that the assembly
was inspired by the company
we're declared unfounded by speak
,ers, who urged their audience to
petition Maryland members of
Congress and Department Of La
? Dor officials for an immediate
cessation of the Michigan strikes.
Plenty of time for a demon
stration here will be available
to the Baltimore workers, it was
pointed out. Snce a shortage Of
parts, caused by the strikes, will
force closing of the Baltimore
Fisher Body plant today and the
= Chevrolet plant tomorrow.
Although details of how a "sit-
down" strike can be staged on
Capitol Hill were lacking, the
Baltimore workers took a pledge
not only to move on Washington
themselves, but to recommend
similar action by $4,000 General
Motors employees in other parts Of
the country.
Local authorities said they had
not been informed Of the forth
coming demonstration. It could
not be learned if permission for
the "sit-down" or other methods
of handling the protest has been
requested Of the District Govern
ment.

Out of Date
u. S. Trails AnzGcs
on Labor, Is VieUU :

The United States is 80 years
behind Australia in its handling
of disputes between capital and
labor.
This Is the belief of Frederic e.
Baume, editor of the Sydney Sun
day Sun and an expert on indus
trial relations. Mr.. Baume, 81.
now in Washington, has been
travelling in the United States
about four months.
Baume, the author Of three
novels. declares that Washington
seems to be an embodiment of the
principles for which the colonists
fought in 1776. His grandfather,
Charles Leary, came over here
from Australia during the War
Between the States and fought
with the Ninth New Jersey In
fantry through the war.
The Australian newspaperman
says there is no violence in Aus
tralian strikes and there is not
the attendant "hysteria" which
he thinks exists here.

Unemployed
Count Is Planned By
u. S. in 1910

Government officials are plan
ming to take a real" census of
the unemployed in 1910 as part Of
the regular census of that year.
This decision, it was learned to-
day, has been reached since Con-
gress made provision for regiStra-
ton of the nations unemployed
during the next few months. The
method by which this is to be done
has not been determined.
In 1910 census enumerators will
obtain information as to unem-
ployed workers when they make
their house-to-houSe canvass.
The law enacted during the re-
cent session of Congress provided
for voluntary registration of job
less on or before April /, 1888.
Secretary of Commerce Daniel
C. Roper is known to have con.
ferred during the past week with
officials of the Labor Department,
Social Security Board, the WPA,
Central Statistical Board and Cen
sus Bureau in an effort to agree
on a method of handling the JOB.
