TUESDAY EVENING, CONFERENCE CALL OVERLOOKED JUST PLAIN CITIZENS Most Interested Parties Not Mentioned as in on Wilson's Plan Washington, Sept. 9. —The elev enth-hour announcement by Presi dent Wilson, on the eve of his de parture for a second prolonged ab sence from the capital, that he would call together a conference of capital and labor "at as early a date as practicable," has been received gen erally as an attempt tipon the part of the Administration to soften the nation-wide criticism of the Presi dent for leaving Washington at this time. Following almost immediately upon the heels of the suggestion by a member of the President's official family—Secretary Lane—that such a conference should be called im mediately, and the resolutions in troduced in the House of Represen tatives Kodenberg, of Illinois, and Strong, of Kansas, urging the Pres ident to postpone his proposed tour of the country until the present oconomic crisis had passed it can scarcely be doubted that President Wilson saw the necessity for taking steps that would at least give the impression that he was doing some thing to meet the situation. Hence, the announcement from the White House that a conference would be called "at as early a date as prac ticable," an announcement which, except for political reasons, might just as well have been made at the conclusion of the President's tour. Idea Not New There is no difference of opinion in Washington, either among Re j LEMON JUICE FOR FRECKLES j j Girls! Make beauty lotion for j a few cents —Try it! . i Squeeze the juice of two lemons into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white, shake well, and you have a quarter pint of the best freckle and tan lotion, and com plexion beautiHer, at very, very small cost. Your grocer has the lemons and any drug store or toilet counter will supply three ounces of orchard white for a few cents. Massage this sweet ly fragrant lotion into the face, neck, arms and hands each day and see how freckles and blemishes dis appear and how clear, soft and rosy white the skin becomes. Yes! It is harmless and never irritates. publicans or Democrats, as to the ! advisability of some such conference. Long before President Wilson's an nouncement, Senator Poindexter and other members of the Senate and House had introduced measures call ing for the creution of such a con ference, and the Joint committee on labor is now at work, giving final form to a bill which will provide for the creation of a permanent econo mic commission to which all differ ences between capital and labor can be referred "or adjustment. This commission will be composed not only of representatives of capi tal and labor, but will also have in its membership representatives of the in-between class, the "plain citi zen"—the clerk and professional man—those who get salaries instead of wages, and. in a way, the general public. This is a point, in the opin ion of Chairman J. M. C. Smith, of the House Committee on Labor, which the President completely over looked in his Labor Day announce ment. Mr. Sniith said to-day: The General Public "The President, apparently, has nothing to say about the interests of the genernl public, in calling togeth er a conference of capital and labor. It is the general public that is most vitally interested in all adjustments between the employer and the labor ing man, and he should be given a voice in such settlements. In the measures now being considered by my committee the citizen who is not directly concerned in the relations of capital and labor, but is indirectly affected very vitally, is given a place in these deliberations, which is the only proper way in which to arrange matters.'

The P-31 was the first of the "hush" craft the public was permitted to see at close ranße. It was only ten yards from the embankment to the quaint looking U-boat lighter, but the intervening distance had to be made in smull boats. Theso each carried eight passengers. It required but a few strokes of the oars to make the "trip"—and the fare was one shill ing, so the waterman's pockets soon were bulging but there was no com plaint about "profiteering." Among the thousands of curious who swarmed over the vessel were a number of American soldiers. Some of them took a peculiar In terest in the guides' explanations and comment on the boat's "trick" fittings—her geared turbines, gad gets, depth-charge throwers and paravanes. It recalled to them a night of peril through which they passed from Southampton or Win chester across the submari ,e and mine-infested English channel, en route to Le Havre or somo other French port—and the war. That night of fearful expectancy passed safely, they had marveled at the efficiency of the convoying craft which they knew had been off in the darkness somewhere, ploughing through rolling breakers, eager for an encounter—with its frequent aftermath of "oil and bubbles" from a vanquished undersea boat. But as theso doughboy spectators heard a number of the crew of the "hush" ship say: "She does every thing but loop-the-loop," and saw others demonstrate parts of the ship's fighting equipment hitherto If your' ' could get traction Given a healthy motor and sure-footedness, Atlantic Gasoline will carry you up the steepest grades with the ease and abandon of a stroll through the park.

The "P-31" is 244 feet lonß. with narrow beam, seven-foot draught and equipped with independent en gines, fore and aft, that can speed her through heavy seas at twenty three knots an hour. Built high forward and low at the stern, the vessel has somewhat the appearance of a submarine—an effect that her designer intended. "Fritz sometimes would think she was a 'sub' and would open fire on licr—but when she slewed around in her own length and got into action, Heinle was sorry ho had spoken," said a sailor who had been through eight engagements on the fighter. There had been other brushes with enemy craft, he ex plained, adding, "but unless you can bring home a bit of the corpse, the Admiralty say, 'Not Proven.' Its no use to tell them about the 'oil and bubbles' they're no proof because Fritz used to release oil and bubbles to make us waste ammu nition." WILL HALD RALLY New Cumberland, Sept. 9.
