Following, In the first of two dl-patches la a fnrrraat. of what th conferee may arcomplih.) BY JOE ALEX MORRIS and ARTHUR F.

DEGREVE WASHINGTON U.R An armed truce in labor's civil war may come from next week's conferences here between the American Federation of Labor and the Committee for Industrial Organization, but a real pence ia not possible until the parties abandon their "no compromise" on the issues dividing them. The two organizations with a membership of nearly 8,000,000 workers met separately last week in Denver, and in Atlantic City, N. J. Both adopted resolutions criticizing recent decisions of Ihe national labor relations board which they held had favored the other. They took a common position In endorsing the federal housing bill, a wages and hours measure and other social legislation.

Schism Opened Wider Although united on these matters affecting the workers, they opened wider the schism between them by statement, action and charges, Lewis suddenly made an overture for peace. He proposed to the' federation' convention that 100 delegates from each organization meet to seek a permanent settlement. The federation replied that it had let up a three-man committee two years ago to work for auch a peace; complained that a 200-man conference would be unwieldy but offered to expand its committee to a "reasonable" number. Lewis yielded and notified the convention that a 10-man committee had been named by the C. O.

delegates and proposed a date for the meeting which was accepted by the federation. Pleads For Armistice Earlier, President William Green of the federation head pleaded for an armistice. He appealed to the C. I. O.

"rebels" to "come home." Lewis was cheered by ISO of his aides when ho protested that the C. I. O. was not to blame; that the C. I.

O. union had been "unlawfully" suspended from the federation and that the organization would cooperate with the A. F. of L. to obtain a united labor movement.

The obstacle to the peace which both organizations protests to want is that each side wants to dictate the terms terms so potentially important that they could easily control the size and the power of the trades union movement and the fnte of some of its present leaders. Tho rnmmltfrra from (lio rliol organizations will meet here Oct. 23 to make preliminary arrangements for the real peace conference. The attitude at the first meeting on vital issues probably will determine whether the sec-cud conference should be held. Are Considered 'Outlaws' The delegates will come to the initial conference fully "Instructed," The executive council of the American Federation of Labor that it considers the I.

O. unions "outlaws" and that harmony can be restored only if they return to the federation and abide by future decisions made by majority rule. The council declined to grant Lewis' demand that it recognize as a stipulation to a peace conference the "record of success" of the industrial form of unionism the heart of the C. I. O.

movement and cause of the schism ai opposed to the A. F. of L. craft union policy. Green repeatedly has contend cd that industrial unionism Is not the cause of the present conflict.

Rut the Denver convention rejected a resolution which, by relaxing the federation's attitude toward Increasing the number of "one big union" charters for mass production industries, would have been a step toward peace with the C. I. O. Tower To Expel So bitterly opposed Is the A. F.

of L. council to the C. I. O. that they asked for and obtained power to expel the rebel unions when-over they wish.

They were on the verge of expelling Lewis' United Mine Workers and the Amalgamated Clothing Workers, headed by Sidney Hillman, when the peace negotiations began. The best informed opinion at the Denver convention was that federation representatives might be willing to make some concessions on Industrial union in peace talks With the C. I. O. but that any plan would have to protect the jurisdictions of craft unions.

Any reunion on such basis would Involve hundreds Of jurisdictional disputes which Lewis and hlj aides would be unwilling to leave to the final determination of the council on which they would be a minority. Because he and his aides Who favor industrial unionism were in the minority on the council and were consistently defeated In federation conventions on the "one big union" plan for mass production industries, Lewis started the C. I. O. The same delegates who cheered his offer of peace with the federation likewise applauded his pledge at Atlantic City that not one vital C.

I. O. policy would be compromised in the forthcoming conversations. Claims 4.000,000 Members Lewis' attitude towird the entire struggle as outlined in speeches before the C. I.

O.

NEW YORK (F The newsprint committee of the American Newspaper Publishers' association today issued this statement: "The Great Northern Paper company, 342 Madison avenue, New York City, today announced an increase of $5.50 a ton over fieir 1937 prices during the first six months of 1938 and an increase of $7.50 a ton over 1937 rices, for the last six months of 1P38. Thus, their New York delivered price during the first six months will be $4B, and during the last six months of 1938. $50 a ton. "This action of this United States mill repudiates the of the Canadian newsniint industry in announcing in March, 1937 a $50 price for the first half of 1038 only, by following the precedent of recognizing the necessity of publishers knowing the price of their most expensive raw material for a year in advance, and by a small relief as to prices. It should help stabilize both the newsprint and publishing Industries.

"It Is believed that contracts of manv lr-rge Canadian manufacturers guarantee a price that Is no higher than the Great Northern price, and that such a substantial amount of tonnage will be affected that Great Northern has set the price for the entire country. "Nevertheless, the increase in cost of newsprint for 1938, estimated at $25,000,000, will be a serious challenge to the management of newspapers. It will undoubtedly require an increase in circulation rates and advertising rates all along the line." BUILDING TOTAL FOR LAST WEEK $18,100 Railroad Company Improvements Add to Cost Figures. Building construction amounting to $18,100, most of which con-fasted of improvements by two railroad companies, was started Grrcn Bay last week, according to Ihe permits issued by Albert Manders, city building inspector.
