Sale rrr Congress Not Represented i James Brown Scott, formerly solicitor of the department state and, at present secretary of the Carnegie endowment for universal peace, and also a in the last conference at 'he Hague, is believed to be under consideration as secretary for the American commission. There will, of course, be at least two asistant secretaries and a considerable number of attaches and clerks.

jlf congress is to be represented on tfto commission, as was the case at' ths Paris conference of 1898, when peace treaties between the United States and Spain were drawn, the fact has not yet developed. On the contrary, said that there is a decided disinclination to involve the legislative branch of the government in any way work of constructing treaties, is regarded as a purely executive function, under the terms of the ebiastitution. It also was today recalled that the senate itself, not many years ailQ, recorded its formal objection to tjij appointment by the president of any of its members as commissioners negotiate agreements which must attjerward come before it for approval. Brandeis Labor's Delegate. iXotice has been 'taken by officials here of the demand by certain social istic elements, not only in Europe hut in: America, to nave labor participate in! the peace congress.

Officials were understood to hold that to recognize hfbor in this way would be to establish class distinctions wnicn would he thor oughly Tin-American. On the other hajnd it was said that by the appoint ment to the peace commission of a man such as Justice Brandeis, for in stance, known to he an ardent friend aisd champion of labor at all times, the interests of the working clases would be; sure of conservation. was made plain today that the se lodlioo. of Secretary Lansing to head i.lic American commission is not to he taken as an indication of his purpo tij resign his present office In his ab sence Counsellor Frank L.

Whether in Russia, or in Ireland, or in Mexico, or in any country, where the people are endeavoring to find freedom and justice, the American Federation, of Labor will put forth its best efforts to help secure them- "Why not release the W. W. prisoners and let them work out their own salvation, according to their lights, you ask'' I. W. W.

Is Bolsheviki "The I. V. W. in the United States is just exactly what the bolsheviki is in Russia, and we have seen what they have done to the working people in Russia, where the people have no security, no peace, no land and no bread. "The American Federation of Labor is going to continue to work for the best interests in the United States, in Russia, and in the far east, and it is going to help you, if you will let it We can't do anything to help you in your country, if you don't want us." The amended resolution was adopted with only four opposing votes.

The entire day was occupied with discussions of Mexican questions and the peace program, contained, in the resolution by President Gompers, was not acted upon. It will be taken up tomorrow. It is thought the pan-American federation ot labor will be effected and the conference probably adjourn by tomorrow night. cuonurr Beginning November 14 LETS The Pacific Coast Director of the Oil Division of the Fuel Administratioit has -withdrawn his request that the sale of gasoline and engine distillate be limited to the hours between 6 a. m.

and 6 p.m.; therefore, beginning Thursday, November 14, the Standard Oil Co. stations and delivery facilities will again serve the public as they did before the conservation measure was Buy your gasoline and distillate at any time now. The restrictions are off, another reversion to conditions before the war and caused by the surrender of Germany. It was. at the request of D.

M. Fol-som, fuel administrator for the Pacific coast states, that the restrictions were put in force which limited the sale of gasoline and distillate between the hours of 6 o'clock a. m. and 6 o'clock p. on week days only, and it is through1 the action of the same official that this order is rescinded.

Conservation of man power was the reason for the order. The only states affected by this order were the Pacific coast states and Arizona and Nevada. It was estimated by Mr. Folsom that through the curtailing of the hours for the sale' of gasoline that .2,000. men were released for military service.

The order-has been in effect for two months. In Phoenix where there are about 75 distributors of gasoline, it was estimated that 100 men were released for duties essential to the prosecution of the war. With the receipt of the instructions from the fuel administrator for the Pacific coast, the Standard Oil company's Phoenix branch immediately issued the following order: "The Pacific coast director of the oil division of the fuel administration has withdrawn his request that the sale of gasoline and engine distillate bo limited to the hours between 6 a. and 6 p. ml; therefore, beginning Thursday, November 14, the Standard Oil company stations and delivery facilities will again servo the public as they did before the conservation measure was requested."

Women Doing Fine Work County Chairman Dwight B. Heard, in sneaking of the work of his com mittee, last evening said that the work of the women in the county organization is deserving of the highest praise. He said it was one of the most re markable demonstrations of careful and complete organizing he had seen.

Some of the women have been al-loted districts in which there was small chance of any large donations. but with the splendid co-operation of the people of modest means these en thusiastic workers have accomplished really remarkable results. Their work may not have produced as large totals as in some of the other districts, but the spirit they encountered could not oe surpassed anywhere. Mrs; E. W.

Lewis, chairman of this work, said that some of these women working in these poorer quarters de serve special praise. These women are Mrs. A. E. Moore, Miss DeMund and Mrs.

Guy Alsap. One woman worker found a family at whose home she called for solicitation with every member of the household ill in bed. This worker at once returned to headquarters, was allowed to abandon her wor of soliciting and is now at that household nursing the sick. All of the women's organizations of the city are making organized effort to contribute, and the first of these organizations to formally do so was the Musician's club. One Chandler newsboy on Thursday called on Will Robinson.

Chandler chairman for the drive, and made a subscription of $1.50. Yesterday the newsboy returned, said he had been thinking it over and felt he had not done enough to up the men at the front." He then gave another. sum, $3, earned by selling papers. One bent, little Japanese working woman called at the Baby Hut yesterday and gave a subscription of 25 cents which was thankfully received. She was accompanied by a more prosperous Japanese man who came along to show her the way.

He was proudly wearing a United War Work campaign button given him when he made a much larger donation. Victory Boys and Girls The total so far pledged and given by Victory Boys and Girls is $15,066. There are already enrolled in Arizona 4.037 boys and girls in this fine work, but in Maricopa county the boys and girls are far behind those in several other counties.

Another 450,000 tons of cargo carriers would he released, he added, by.

completion, on or before January 1, of voyages in'the nitrate trade. which will he discontinued a result of the cessation of munitions making on a large scale. Mr. Hurley declared that his board hopes to return ships in the service of the war department and vessels under its own charter, engaged in government trade, to the regular commercial chan nels within a year. The shipping board would continue, ho asserted.

Its policy of paying American wages and would conduct a country-wide propaganda to attract men to the merchant marine. A feature of this plan, he said, is the preparation of a text book on ships and shipping which will be introduced in the public schools. "Having spent billions in building an American merchant marine," declared Mr. Hurley, "with ships equipped with quarters fit for Americans, we propose to carry on the work via havo begun. All wc ask is that the manufacturers take advantage of this and provide the cargoes necessary to keep these vessels at sea." He predicted that within five years 1,000,000 men will be engaged in operating the merchant fleet, including officers and seamen, shipyards workers and men and women in factories making marine equipment.

BAKER TAKES ISSUE WITH MR. HURLEY WASHINGTON, Nov. 15. The war department has made no definite plans for the return of the American expeditionary forces to the United States, it was learned tonight, and it is not regarded as likely that the movement, except of sick and wounded, will start soon. Asked specifically if any of the men could be expected home by Christmas, Secretary Baker said he did not.

know, adding that no estimates of the time required had been made. General Pershing, it is understood, has been considering the question of getting the army back home, but it is said that many factors in his plans have not yet been decided. Amonir fhoso is the question of what proportion "of the guard duty in Europe the American iorces win assume. Presumably the supreme war council, through its mili ary anvisers at Versailles, is working out this question, with regard to all the allied armies, as well as the American jvuuuier element that is expected to tar toward determining the time when many of the American withdrawn from Europe, is the turn it a siaDie government is set up quickly and order maintained, there will not be great need for veCljin5 a large American force avail- near uio uerman borders, anrt it is assumed by many officers that only faa.i i uuiiuig oi various torts and lorcresses would be remiiroa the revolution in Germany follow the i-uuiae oi me Russian upheaval, how ever, and a condition nf nnarr.hv lawlessness prevail, it is impossible to forecast the extent to which military intervention might be required, or the scope of American co-operation in such an enterprise. Mr.

Baker has previously indicated that the fundamental desire of the war uepdrunent in mustering out the army uc iu iciciise iirsc inose men who had been longest in France and the first in action. In that event it is to be expected that the first and second (regular) divisions, and the 26th (Tew England), 42nd (Rainbow) and 41st national guard divisions would be the first to be SPf vn Iiurley's reference to employment to expedite the return of the troops was considered here as lookinsr aheari Undoubtedly the German ships will be used to transport food to Europe and u.1,,9 mis country could be used to move troops.

MEN OF MEXICO Continued from Page One) ico and tell them what I say. Twelve years ago, Moyer, Haywood and Petti- bone were on trial lor tneir lives, ana although we were not affiliated with the American Federation of that organization contributed the funds which enabled us to prove our innocence and saved our lives. "Pettibone died, and on his death bed he gave thanks to the American Fedeia- tion of Labor for the help it nao. given him. Moyer lived and served and has tried to be true to the organization to which he owed his life.

He is now paying part of the debt he owes them. Haywood was false, he started at once an organization to undermine his benefactors and to injure his country." The resolution which brought out the debate was amended to provide that the executive council of the American Federation of Labor should investigate any report of men improperly imprisoned and take what action the members saw fiL The resolution as adopted reads: Adopt Amended version "That an agreement be reached as to the best way for finding honorable means to exert an influence so that justice and protection will be imparted to those working men. who, for various reasons, are deprived of their liberty in the jails of the United States." Mr. Gompers started the debate by demanding the exact meaning of the resolution. He was answered by Perez Ruiz, delegate from Torreon, who conceded that the influence of the Industrial Workers of the World had made itself widely felt in Mexico and that the resolution had been introduced as the opening wedge to obtain the release of the W.

W. prisoners now confined in the Leavenworth prison. The arguments presented by various Mexican speakers included the contention that the I. W. W.

and the American Federation were rival organizations, animated by jealousy, that the American union had planned to put into jail ail working men who did not belong to it, and finally ended with the plea that the federation should forgive the convicted men their past offenses and obtain their release. Labor Aided Mexico Mr. Gompers related to the delegates the part organized labor had played in aiding the people of Mexico in years past, including its protests which helped induce the American government to refuse to return Mexican political refugees, who had fled to the United States at the time of the revolution against President Diaz. "The American labor movement sup delicious and wholesome drink of great food value and absolute purity. -Chocolate and mm arid flavor, and energy giving material to a diet and their use will help in many ways tar preparation of palatable, nourishing dishes from those foods of which there ia an abundance."
