Mr. Oomncrs presented a resolu

principles which he emphnsi.cd had the
unanimous approval of the labor gioup.
including the representatives of the four
railroad brotherhoods.
Labor's Eleven Principles
The eleven principles are:
Ttlght of wage-earners to organize
Itight of collective bargaining.
Itight of wage-earners to be tenre
scnted b representatives of theii
own choosing iu negotiations with
employers.
Freedom of speech, of the'picss.
and of assemblage.
Right of employers to organize. and
bargain collcctivelj .
Minimum eight-hour d.iv with one
day of rest in each week, and with
a half holiday on Saturday encour

Payment of n living wage.
Women to receive the same pny us
men for equal work.
Prohibition of labor lor children
under sixteen years of age
"To secure a greater share of ion
, sldcration and co-operution lo the
workers iu nil muttcis affecting thn
Industry in which they aie engaged."
a national conference board was pro
posed to provide for the systematK
review of industrial relations and
conditions, the board to consist of nn
equal number of representative of
employers and workers, having due
' regard to the various sections of in
dnstry nnd classes of workmen.
Formation of these boards would be
encouraged by the Department of
Labor.
Prohibition ot all immigration for
at least two years after the declara
tion of peace, and lat such times
r" thereafter as there may be an ab
normal condition of unemployment.
At no time would immigration be
permitted to exceed the nation's abil
ity, to Americanize the incoming for
eigners. Opposes Group byslein
Dr. Charles W. Uliot. president
emeritus of Harvard University, vig
orously protested agninst the group sys
tem. Declaring that u conflict alrcudj
was on between capitul and labor, he
Insisted that the group method promoted
i.ombat.
"For example," he fcaid. "one of the
propositions just submitted in the uami;
ot the labor group here relates to a
present controversy, nn industrial con
troversy going on. Can we hopefully
go into such u question as that in this
conference? I thoroughly agree that we
need a new method of operation in this
i-onfcrencc namely, the presenting of
.topics for discussion which are really
new, not old."
t. E. Shcppard. a represemalne of
tho railroad brotherhoods, mused ,i
flurry of excitement in the conferene
room when he declared that "strikes

Performance and Price
There is only one way to buy a motor
truck on its ability to transport and
the cost of that transportation,
A First Cost that is too high means an
inflated cost per ton mik a First Cost
that is too low stamps a truck as one
built to meet a prices a truck that wiU
spend days in the repair shop a truck
that will fail on its test of ability.
But there is a middle ground a point
where price and performance balance
a place where value is greatest. Beth
lehem Motor Trucks are examples of
that middle ground they are neither
underbuilt to meet a price nor overbuilt
to jusafy a price. Buy your Motor
