Washington, Oct. 9.—An immediate
industrial truce to continue for three
months, the creation of an arbitration
board by the President and congress,
and immediate arbitration of the na-
tionwide steel strike were among the
proposals made today to the industrial
conference, which is in session here.
The first two proposals were pre-
sented by representatives of the pub-
lic and the last by the labor group.
Barnard Baruch, chairman of the pub-
lic group, made the proposal for an
industrial truce, while Samuel Gom-
pers, chairman of the labor group,
proposed arbitration of the steel
strike. The Gompers plan contend,
plated the immediate return of the
steel strikers pending the outcome of
efforts to arbitrate the dispute.
The • proposed'permanen arbitration
board was urged by Gavin McNab, of
San Francisco, and provides that ail
living ex-presidents be members. The
Gompers board for arbitration of the
steel strike wolud be composed of six
members, two apopinted by each group
in the conference, capital, labor and
thfc public.

MINISTER’S DISAGREE ON WAR’S
EFFECT ON SOLDIER BOYS
Louisyille, Ky., Oct. 9.—Two former
army chaplains, now ministers of
Louisville churches, have divided opin-
ions concerning religious traits of the
American soldier. The Rev. R. Ernest
Aki of the Unitarian church, declares
that “most of the men of the army
have done little serious religious
thinking,” while the Rev. Harris Mal-
linckrodt, rector'of Cavalry Episcopal
church, believes all the soldiers saw
“greater religion” in the war.
Rev. Mr. Akin’s first sermon after
-taking over the pulpit of the Unitarian
church centered about religion of the
soldier, in which he said:
"Most of the army men have done
little serious religious thinking. Many
who, at the front literally were scared,
did pray; but to most of them God
was for use in emergency only, and
their prayer was a sore of in-case-of
accident-break-the-glass effort which
has not been repeated since the armis-
tice.”
“I do not believe the American sol-
dier knew fear,” asserted the Rev. Mr.
Mallinickrodt in one of his sermons.
“I do not believe he feared death. If
he orayed, he did so because he habit-
ually prayed and not because be was
afraid to face God. I think the per-
sonnel of the U. S. army had a distinct
a,nd innate leaning toward the greater
principles of religion. I was In the
wreck at Gall, France, when 26 men
were killed and-was .with them during
their last moments in the hospitals.
The fortitude displayed convinced me
these men had lived as Christians
and were not afraid to take the last
Journey.”

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 9—Thirty-one
stores operating in North Dakota at
present, with expectations that before
Jan, 1, 1920, this number will be in-
creased to 38, 1b the record of the Con-
sumers United Stores company, a non-
partsan League business venture. The
company's assets are estimated at
more than $1,000,000.
The man responsible in a large
measure for the growth of the com-
pany and the directing genius ef the
corporation is H. A. Patrick, general
manager, who, in little more than two
years, has built up a system of stores
that compares favorably with that of
other chain store .companies in the
country. The first store of the com-
pany was established at Kenmare, N.
D., in November, 1917.
The company operates on a cash
basis and each contract holder pays
$100 for the privilege of, buying mer-
chandise at the stores at a price “not
exceeding ten per cent of the whole-
sale market price, plus-transportation
charges.” The company has nearly
ll,00flT contract holders and the greater
part of Its capital—$200,000 in cash
and the balance In notes—comes from
this source.
The privilege of making a contract
with the company is not restricted to
farmers, but any one permanently lo-
cated can buy from the store ia
locality upon signing a contract am*
'paying $100, with a special rate off“ -
$10 per year for wage earners. [ A
The men who originally started the-
stores were Norbert O’Leary, Charles ■
H. Heck and H. L. Elliott, each sub-
scribing $1,000 for the Initial work*

ent Is held by Fred Miller, president*
