may not be appeased until the reorgan
ization of the central cnmpalgn com
mittee if effected at the spring primaries.
Seelis People's Confidence
"It is our purpose to win the con
fidence of the people.
"We nrn not now in the business of
punishing enemies, or serving friends.
"As n candidate for Mn.vor I have

Mnfl orre-ic.nil-iit nf the. limine I'ulillr ller
( oiiirfoif 1010 bj Ihr f'ub f 1 -lwr J ompimu
Washington, Oct. 14. As has been ntcilictcd in these dispatches iiotn
the first, tho committee of fifteen, or steering committee, of the national in
dustrial conference, today declined to tecommend favorably the Compels
lcsolution to enter into an adjudication of the steel strike.
There was a majority of the committee favorable to nn affirmative
report, hut under the rule of the confetence it lequircs a majority vote of
each group, whether -in committee oi m the body of the conference, to
recommend favorably any measuic oi lcsolution.
The attendance, notwithstanding tho importance of today's session of
the confcience, was below the avciage. The picscntation of the commit
tee's rcpoit by Chairman Thomas L. Chadbouine, of tho people's Kioup,
was purely a perfunctory performance and elicited no undue show of sur
prise among the membcis of any gioup. - The resolution went auto
matically before the gencinl body for final action.
Influence of Senate Probe Seen
The action of the committee on the
steel strike wns- not unexpected
It is possible that the published
findings of the Senate committee into
the situation nt Pittsburgh had some i
thing to do with sticngthcnlng the on
victions of those opposing the lcsolu
tion Reports of specinl correspondents
nceompanjing the Senate committee
were, on tho whole, not corroborative of
the contention of the strikcis.
The majority of the strikers were
aliens, unnaturalized nnd easily led, and
mnpy were unnble to speak Dnglisli,
though they hnd been cinplojed in the
district since the beginning of the world
wnr in 1014.
A pnrticularly unfortunate episode
for the conservative labor element in
this crisis wns the declnrntion of Wil
liam 'A. Foster, secretuiy In defuse of
the work of organizing the steel woik
crs for the strike, who, nt a mflss-meet-iug
of strikers from the Cnmbrin Steel
AVorks in Johnstown, Pa., Sunday Inst,
declared thnt his hope of a htorj was
based on the action of the industrial
commission at Washington, that the
conference must adopt the Gompcrs res
olution to urbitrnte the stiikc or its
work would be a failure.
Dnngcr of Helping Radicals
This assertion couoborated the icv
alreadv expressed that the danger to
he nnticipnted wns that the tndicnl lenc
eis of the strike, like Foster, would
herald the adoption of the (lompers
proposition ns a personal victon , that
it would ghe encouragement to the ex
tremists nnd afford n basis for futuie
strikes and disturbances predicated ou
the idea that their threatening attitude
had forced the conference through feai
of them and their methods to advocate
the Gompers proposition.
There can be no doubt thnt the laboi
group desired affirmative action on the
steel strike arbitrating proposal be
cnuse of its effect on the strikers as well
ns upon the general body of labor
throughout the country.
Affirmative action undoubtedly would
hnve impressed the, lnbor woild with
the idea that the labor group had ac
complished something definite and was
n domlnnnt fnctor in the conference.
It would hnve been nccepted us n ic
buke to Judge Oinry in his refusal In
meet or to confer with the leaders, ns
well as a denial of his principle that
the issue was n moinl one that was
not susceptible of arbitrntion.
llroad View by Public Group
So fur ns the committee of fifteen
is concerned they fared a difficult nnd
delicate situntion. The conservative
members of the people's group, who,
after nil. were the leal umpires, took
the broader view of the question which
carried them beyond the mere present
and into the wider field of ultimate
lcsults ns applied to labor ns n whole
Had it decided to arbitrate the strike
there is no renson whj similnredemands
should not have been innde b.v other or
ganisations that the committee nuclei
take tho adjustment of other great
strikes the longshoremen's walkout,
which has threatened the food supplv
of New York, ns nn example or the
strike nnd wnlknut of printers in New
York, which has paralyzed the period!
cal trade and Is costing publishers hun
dreds of thousands of dollars.
As one member of the conference ex
pressed himself today the conference was
called by President Wilson to survey the
entire held of labor; to investigate con
dltions and suggest remedies that would
affect not one trade, but the entire bodj
of American industry.
Faces Vaster Problems
For the industrial conference to halt
its work nt this iustnnt nnd concern
itself with specific measures in specilic
instances, would involve It in confusion
nnd cictrnet from the vaster work which
It has to do w ith labor as a whole.
