WELLS IS REELECTED
Annudl Meeting Is Held AT
Travellers Hotel In East
Liverpool

A resolution to call a national con-
ference of the leaders of industry, Ia
Dor, agriculture and scientific research
to discuss ways and means of meeting
the postwar problems that are bound
to follow the present conflict was
passed unanimously at the opening ses-
sion of the annual Made in America
foundation conference held at the
Travellers Hotel last Monday after
noon.
The resolution, presented by Nj. w.
Thompson, treasurer and general man
ager of the Hall China Co, was read
before approximately 40 representa-
tives of the group, including President
Joseph NJ Wells, ST. of the Homer
Laughlin China Co., Capt. f. X. n.

tor of made in America,' monthly
publication of the organization: f. w.

Steubenville Pottery Co., and James Nj.

the National Brotherhood of Operative

The plan, which was discussed mt
length at the meeting here today, In
wolves inviting the governors of each
state, along with the territories, to call
state conferences of the leaders in all
four classes to study national prob
lens, such as tariff, merchant marine,
foreign trade, Interstate barriers, form
subsidies, buy American, unemployment
and other major subjects as these af-
feet their respective communities.
The governors of each state would
appoint -four delegates and four alter
mates Zone from each class), subject to
call of a nationally-knOwn parsonage,
for the national conference.
This conference, it was pointed out,
would be distinctly nOn-partisan ami
the various findings at the close of the
conference would be passed on to con-
gress the state legislatures, the COVER
nors and the President with such
recommendations as may be necessary
in each case.
Mr.. Eble said the National Meeting
it is hoped, would be called sometime
next spring, but added:
81 do not believe we (NIade in Amer
lea fOundatiOn) should sponsor such Il
conference - indeed, / doubt if any
group, even the National Association OF
Manufacturers or the United States
Chamber of Commerce-shOuld sponsor
it for it is too big and too all inclusive
for any one group to handle. All should
cooperate, and work together to make
such a conference Il success - even
those manufacturers who lean towards
lower tariffs.
Let the whole discussion be one that
