INDUSTRIAL CONFERENCE.
It is an assured fact that without
Industrial peace any agreement

-*p ill miserably In giving to the
nations of the earth that stability arid
understanding essentially necessary
for their social and industrial devel-
opment. The havoc wrought by in-
dustrial disturbances and clashes be-
tween capital and labor are almost as
destructive in their results ns the
of war between nations—both

Washington Star
[iieed of a conference between repre-
sentatives of all classes of our citi-
,ienship—representatives of every walk
fW life, every industry, both u* em-
fjployer and employe—whereat. the
■ ’..great questions so seriously affecting
.'National life can be discussed from
‘•■every angle and a possible agreement
tireached that will tend to avert the
consequences of continual strife that
today hangs like a millstone about the
neck of the Nation’s business Says
the Star.
America's greatest need today is for

*• TI general agreement between cap-

ligations of each, to the end that fric-
tion b.otween them may be reduced and
business pt: mitted to go ahead to that
great expansion which means pros-
perity and happiness for the American
people.
President Wilson emphasized this
fact in his message to Congress. For-
mer President Taft has stressed it in
Ids writings and public addresses It
is recognized by industrial leaders and
labor leaders alike as the paramount
problem of the Nation. Leaders of
National thought and forward-look-
ing men in all walks of life are giving
i' their earnest consideration.
There has been in evidence a great
National determination that out of the
sufferings and sacrifices of war there I
should be created a better brother-
hood among all Americans; that jus-
tice should be truer and the relation-
ship of man to man more kindly and
sympathetic: that the American ideal
of equality of opportunity should be
made a practical fact in the life of the
• republic

Writing in World Outtapk for May
on the immigration question, 0.
lilumpied, a well known and recognized
authority on economic questions, says:
Naturalization ha* fallen off consid-
erably in the last years. Of the for-
eign-born In New York 58 per cent
were citizens ten years ago. while only
41 per cent are naturalized today. In
Missouri there has been a drop of
from 60 to 42 per cent. In only two
from 60 to 4 per cent. In only two
states has the percentage Increased.
And the number of foreign-born un-
able to speak English has gone up
142 per cent.
And it isn’t as though the matter
of tine foreign-born was a small prob-
lem; over seventeen millions of our
population are immigrants from other
countries.
We call today “the period of recon-
struction.’' There’s a great deal of it
to be done. In these days of revo-
lution it is not a good thing for any
country to have an enormous mass of
unassimilated, dissatisfied men. The
countries that the immigrants left
have, many of tlum, had their revo-
lutions. Some of the restrictions that
they emigrated to escape are still evi-
dent in the United States. Some of
the reforms they failed to find here
have been instituted in the countries
they left.
Many of them are going to return
to their freed countries. We don't
want them to have the impression of j them out
the United States that a young Creek
brought hack to Athens. I'
"The Americans are like beasts," he
told a group of university students in
Athens. "They work with machines
ten hours a day until they become
machines themselves. All the time
they chew tobacco, with the expression
of stupid sheep. Then, aflqy work,
they go to a saloon and drink until
they fall into the gutter. The patrol
wagon gathers them in, just as the
dog-catcher gathers stray dogs here
in Athens. That, my. friends, is
America'"
If the world is reaching a plane of
internationalism, we want our returned
immigrants to take to the Old World
the best ideals of America.
And those who decide to remain here
should understand us. They should be
taught just what their part may be in
bringing about reforms They should
In taught that they are the Ameri-
can Government, that the people them-
selves are responsible for the laws.
The war has shown the great need
for Americanization work—there were
found in the draft 1,500,600 unable to
read or write English, fur example,
j^nd whtle the war has shown the
general illiteracy and lack of response
to American ideals of the newer im-

call it, than any other place. This is
sure some town. We’ve been all down
Market street already, and it kinda

markets on it, hut there ain’t a thing
but picture shows and hotels along
here. I'm in a skyscraper now writin’

on the street from this 'fourth floor
window. This place Is sure busy from
some cause or other, looks like they
were all in a hurry to get some where
and then about time they get there
they turn around and do it all over
again. We stood on a corner this
morning two hours waitin’ for what
seemed an auto funeral to pass, and
then found out that it was just ttie
ordinary daily traffic—four traffic
cops and one policeman on each cor-

policemen up here pretty close or they
would run off and come to a good

thing we noticed, went into a place for
dinner today and some feller with a
white coat on asked us what we
"wished.” Well, of course, we didn’t
know beforehand that we had to wish
for anything, so got up and went hack
to the hotel to make a couple of
wishes. Some uiie told us down at the
depot this afternoon that they hold
the world's fair here awhile hack, hut
of course, wo ain’t goln’ to let any
smart city feller put that to us, even
though we are from Texas. In the
first place, t,here ain’t no place to put
a fair here, hut, anyway, we would
sure like to have seen it. I'm going
to look around here and find out how
they got so many people to come to
town today, and how they managed
to get money to fix up so many parks
like we got planned down on Red

how much uniforms ror the police

When the children amt their friends
left the Breton house. Captain Brave
said, "Do you children know who
Joan of Arc was?"
The children had to admit that they
didn’t but Ladydear helped them out
by explaining that Joan of Are was
a brave French girl who led France’s
soldiers in war many hundreds of years
ago. and who later was burned to death
by France's enemies for her part in
the war.
Then Captain Brave said, “We ar*
going now to Roue.n, the beautiful city
on the Seine river. It was in this city
that Joan of Arc was tried and forced
to die."
So they went back to the airplane
and started for the city
The children kn»w this city must
have been built ague end agtn ago
when they saw the uicicnt buildings
standing in the eentcr of it.
Captain Brave pointed out to tha

and then toM them bow almost six
hundred years ago the people In th*
city got very angry at the kings—

because he asked them f>w mere
money for hi* use. They told the king
they would not pay It and so he sent
soldiers to the city to punish the i>eo-

In a tower was rung to call all ct the
men In the city to fight. When the
soldiers came and finally took posses-
sion of the city they ordered the tower
In which the bell was hung to l»e torn
down. .
The townspeople tore down the
tower but tot* away the bell and hid
it. After a while, when the soldiers
had left the city, the people built a
new tower for the hell, and this ^is
the tower the children saw.
The children next saw the famous
cathedral of Rouen. A man In the
cathedral told them how part of it
had been built eight centuries ago
and showed them the section wb'ih
had been standing through all of the
ages since then.
Captain Brave pointed out the spot
In the center of the town where Joan
of Arc was put to death, and then told
the children how, according to tue
story, her ashes were taken down to
the riven and thrown to the winds.
Joan or Arc is today one of the best
loved characters in French history.
The children were very sad when
they walked back to the airplane,
thinking how the brave woman had
been treated after all she had done for
her country.
When the airplane was once more
soaring into the clouds Captain Brave
announced that the next stop would he

The senatorial investigation of the
