Washington, Dec. 28.—Tentative
recommendations for the estab-
lishment of machinery to prevent
or retard labor conflicts in private
industry were announced today
by the President’s industrial con-
ference with a view to obtaining
constructive criticism before a fi-
nal plan is adopted.
The plan as outlined now con-
templates the creation of a nation-
al industrial tribunal and regional
boards of inquiry and adjustment,
which would move to the settle-
ment of disputes before there was
any stoppage of production. De-
cisions would have the full force
and effect of a trade agreement be-
tween the parties to the dispute.
Remarking that some public
utilities, such as railroads, are es-
sential to the very existence of the
people, the conference’s tentative
statement expressed the opinion
Jhat the “interruption in such
public utilities is intolerable.”
But the conference states that fur-
ofither consideration is required of
the problem whether some method
can be arrived at that will aArert
all danger of interruption to ser-
vice.
' Government employes, the third
class into which the wage earning
puublie is divided, should have the
right to associate for mutual pro-
testion. the statement declared but
“no interference by any group
with the continuous operation of
Government functions through
concerted cessation of work or
threats thereof can be permitted.”
When the conference
consented to adjustment before
the inquiry was completed, the
board of inquiry would become a
board of adjustment by appoint-
ment of the remaining member.
Otherwise, the board of inquiry
would investigate the dispute and
make public findings for the ben-
efit of the public.
“In the preservation of evi-
dence,” the preliminary statement
declared, “each side shall have
the right to prevent its position
through representatives of its own
choosing.”
All the property constitute
boards would have the right to
subpena witnesses, examine them
under oath and to require the pro-
duction of papers pertinent to the
case.
Existing means of adjustment
and conciliation, whether Federal
or State, or established under mu-
tual agreements of workers and
ployers in any industry, would not
be affected by the creation of the
system suggested by the confer-
ence.
With regard to public utilities,
the conference made the following
statement :
“The plan here proposed pre-
sents greater difficulties in appli-
cation to certain public utilities
than to competitive industry. The
continuous operation of public
welfare. As the capital invested
is employed in public use, so is the
labor engaged in public service;
and the withdrawal of either with
the result of suspending service
makes the people the real victim.
“The conference believes that a
plan of tribunals or boards of ad-
justment and inquiry should be
applied to public utilities, but in
the adaptation of the plan two
problems present themselves. First
—governmental relation of pub-
lic utilities is now usually confin-
ed to rates and services. The con-
ference considers that there must
he some merging of responsibility
Electric Storage Battery Co.
Philadelphia, Pa.
Dear Sirs:
I have read with interest the dif-
ferent advertisements of makers
of storage batteries, also their
claims for service and what they
would do, and I would like to tell
you exactly what has happened to
me, an owner of a battery made by
your firm and used on my private
roadster, a Buick Model D 44.
This battery has never been off
of my car. It has given service
under ally and all conditions, and
had water of every kind put in it.
I have seen the times -when I had
to scrape mud and dust off to find
the holes to put ivater in. I have
nt rain water, artesian well wa-
fr, water out of ponds and creeks
and just any kind of water just so
it was wet, and the battery contin-
ues to give service day in and day
out. Lots of times in the coldest
weather the battery was too weak
to spin the motor and I primed my
motor and off she went. Any time
the battery was weak I only had
to run the ear a few hours and she
was back up again ready to whirl
the motor and give a good light.
I remember once the darn thing
froze up and I poured scalding

water on it. I thought it was ru-;

wrong again.
Now when a firm makes a prod-

been, I believe it nothing but right'
that they should be informed!
about it, for this means close on to
four years service, and not con-
ducted under any set of rules and
regulations either.
And in conclusion this is an un-
