'is FEBRUARY 18, 1918 Ship Carpenters Obey President Centlnned from Puce One wired Hutcheson, "to call your attention to the fact that tho strike of the carpen ters In the shipyards Is In marked and painful contrast to the nctlon of labor In other trades and places." Tho action of labor ns a whole In tho carpenters' walkout marks n, unique page In the history of organized Amer ican workmen. All of tho leaders lined in with tbn rinvernment against tho etrlkn souchl bv Hutcheson. and forced : him to yield through the pressure of labor mid public opinion. As olio flnal gun In the campaign of; tho other trades to leave Hutcheson to I his own fate, h executive council of the I n.ert,-!in Federation of t .their last night ' IsMica a statement upholding tho hands. of tho Uovcrnim-nt In piosccutlng the wnr. "Tho problem of production, lnd's n.n.ni,v in iireventliu- unnecess.iry laughter of fellow men. Is squarely up to all workes aye, to employes nrl.'ho Pacific coast tho minimum wage Is i-mnlovers " the statement read. Soldiers and sailors arc n"picss the producers do not do their part Kverv link In the chain of tho moblllz.t tlon nf the lighting force nnd neco,iy supplies Is Indlspensablo to winning the wnr against militarism and tho prin ciples of freedom." The peace parleys between Russia nd Hermany." said the counc'l resolu tions, have mown tho futility of diplo matic negotiations until German mili tarists nro iminccd they cannot super Impose their will on the rest of the world. Force Is the basis for their whole organisation and la the only argument they will understand." Pointing out that labor forms the K'lekbone nf tho war. the resolution Cnntlnued' The workrrs nre willing to sacrifice f..i an lib-til hut not for the selllsh gain r another. Give workers it decent pl.ice to lite protect them against conditio is to take nil their wages, give mem utili ties wlv by grievances can be ad Justed and Industrial Justice assured, mnko It. plain that their labor counts In tho winning 11 war for greater free dom, not for prlvatn prollteerlng, and workers can confidently be expected to do their part. Workers arc loal. They want to do theli share for tho Republic and for winning the war." Tho time has come, the Government feelt, wl.cr there must be no further strikes In tho war work. Delays now are dangerous. A nation wage polity has been almost completed. The scale announced by the wage adjustment com mission of the snipping board Sattir dny to apply to fourteen ynnls In the Hast will be taken as a working bat-ls for standards In all yards. The tiol'cy followed will be generil wage It. creases, a basic eight-hour day. time nnd a half overtime on regular weekdays, double time overtime on holiday, and Sundays and tho open or closed shop to bo maintained, according to conditions prevailing In tho In dividual shops before the war. Tho great problem to bo considered now Is the new national prcgram of tho Government In Its dealings with labor. The flrt two fnctors In this problem President Wilson advised Hutcheson the Government already "has accepted nnd will perform" to sec thnt "the best possible conditions ot labor are main tained, nnd that there Is nv lawless nnd conscienceless prollteerlng" It stand 1 as th Government's warning to employers that they will be held equally responsible with labor In meet ing tho production demands of the war. It also seems that before there Is any conscription of labor the acid test will bo applied to tho employers. Secretnry of Labor Wilson has called a conference for February 26 between national representatives ot employers and workmen, which It In hoped will result In agreements on basic principles for Industrial relationship tn govern the Government's national 'abor policy for the duration of tho war. Five representatives each of employ ers and workers have been selected, nnd these will choose two representatives of the Government, making twelvo con ferees In all.

Tho men required to work under the bill nm to recelo compensation not less than that paid to others In the same kind of work. The bill Is not Intended to make men slaves, but to make them patriots. "It Is Itnportnnt to the country tint he labor supply In New .icrsoy bo utll ired to Its fullest extent, because we have so many factories In wh'ch war munitions nro made. Also the man power bill will help solve tho annual problem of farm labor, and farmers win patriotically plant a larger acreage than usuall will need aid and should havo plenty of helpers." Ship Carpenters to Vote on Pay Continued from Pne One tlcally the same ns they aro here. If theio Is any difference It is In favor of the man nn the Pacific coast. Living Is a little cheaper thero than It la here." Mr. Hlckey was asked if It might not be possible that the difference was caused by a greater scarcity of men on tho western coast than In the Kast. "No. I don't think It could be that," ho replied. "Wo can get them the men whercer they want them. As a, matter of fact most of the men In the Phila delphia district now am from the Middle West. We could get them from there to the Pacific coast Just as easily as wc could bring them hero." Discrimination seemed to be the only reason Mr. Hlckey could find for the difference In pay. "Tho meeting on Wednesday night will decide what wo will jo here," he con tinued, It la all up to tho men. A wrong Impression has been given out that the olllcers nnd organizers of the carpenters' union nre going to cull a strike. Thnt would be utterly Impos bible, even If we had tho desire to do It. "Such questions are all up to the popular vote of the men. They aro the ones to decide whether they will work or not. I have no Idea what they will decide on Wednesday night, "1 wilt say that we Intend to do every thing wlthjn our power to keep the men at work pending ah appeal from tho rcvcnty-ccnts-an-hour decision, W will try to persuade the men to this, but It will be tip to them to decide what they will accept nnd whAt. they will relecl." Mr. Hlckey said that tho shipyard vurjiemers ni t umingion nau aeciueu to strike this mo nlug If their demands were not met. "We managed to head this off yester day", he said, "1 nm, going down there this afternoon to look after things and to keen tbn men Ht work na lonir ns nos. slide. Wo want tf.sec this whole nlfalr settled amicably." Mr. Hlckey denied that a reduction of wages on the Paelllc coast to conform with those In tho Kast wonld satisfy tho moil, "We are never In favor of a decrease." he (Ueiarcd.
