"Your interest, no less than ours,

"provoking soldiers to disobedience and

Remnant of Labor
Council Assembles
Continued 1'rom I'nte One
to the last nnolysls, Is what the labor
group demanded,
The resolution to define collective
bargaining precipitated the question of
the open shop.
It wbe, quoting an employer's speech,
"nn attempt to cram union labor down
our throats."
The employers' group mnde conces
sions. They recognized the right of
inbor to organize, to bargain collectively
nnd to choose their own representatives
to confer with employers. At the same
time they demanded the right to de
cide whether or not they should meet
"outsiders," Inbor lepresentatlves who
were not lit their employ.
The labor group tefused to nceept this
proviso, nnd there the conference came
to a standstill.
Against the emplojers' group the
chnrge lins been brought t lint it was
fighting tiie battles of Judge Clary ami
the steel corporation.
It is true thnt the position of Judge
Clary coincides with the view ot the
majority of the cmploers' group, but
It does not inlliiencc them wliollj. They
had already been convinced.
Prolerlltt? Small Kmplojer
There are over 200,000 cinplo.crs of
labor in this country. Uighty-inc per
tent of them employ less than 'J00
men.
It was these, the emnlojets say, they
were protecting. Theic was another
seitleil fcellnc in the hearts of the em
plovers, that, sooner or later, the ques
tion of the "mien shop" nnd the right
of unorganized labor to fteedom of ac
tion will hnve to be fought out. It
might ns well be now ns an other
time.
One grent mlstnke Is being made by
the etnplo.veis. They underestimate the
strength of the radical and nunniilstn
movement in this country.
It lieenine ntitiiireut yesterday morn
ing that the conference was about to
go on the "rocks." The detent of all
l evolutions that attempted to define
collective bargaining, nnd the resolu
tion to arbitrate the steel strike, had
left the labor group in nn nngry, linlf
sullen mood. It wns then that Sec
retary I.nne, in the hope of nvcrtlng
aster, read the President's letter.
Mr. (tompers nsked the labor group
to retire to consider what they would do.
It wns nearly " o'clock before labor
was lendy to report. In the interval,
one of the labor men said that they
proposed "to pass the buck" to the
employers and compel them to decide
the fate of the conference.
Labor did nothing of the sort, al
though it tried mighty hard to do so.
On reassembling, -Mr. tiompers pre
sented n resolution without debate or
comment, except that it expressed the
unanimous view or ins colleagues.
It wns practically the Bussell reso
lution for collective bargaining, with
the exception thnt it omitted the words
"trade nnd labor unions," nnd sim
