The President has made it known that he prefers t5o allow business to adjust itself rather than foist legislative panaceas on capital and labor. The feeling prevails in industrial quarters that a meeting of the national legislature before the regular term next winter would be nothing short of a calamity. This attitude is explained in the uncertainty which always dominates in* dustry with Congress threatening restraints or tax reforms. The demand for an extraordinary session seems to have had its origin in a perpetual kickers' group of politicians so that little weight is attached to 4&eir calls for a gathering of the Congressional clans. There is no secret of the fear mani fest that a special session would concentrate on the question of unmeployment insurance or a dole. A compulsory system of unemployment insurance has been recommended in Congress and gained considerable support at the last session. The proposal to have tha government give the idle a fixed sum at regular intervals is generally repugnant to all classes- There is no doubt that the experiences of the last two years will rivet attention of industry on voluntary unemployment protection for faithful workers. The whole subject is in a nebulous stage and details must be worked out in fairness to the employer and toe employee, and, of course, the state. Meanwhile, the various groups, including some labor leaders, are advising the legislators to remain quiet and keep hands off. There is a wealth of meaning in the statement of Matthew Woll, vicepresident of the American Federation WASHINGTON LETTER GALLEY 2 of Labor, in a talk before bankers here this week. "American labor is probably in for the fight of its life. Mr. Woll referred to the union's strenuous efforts to combat wage cuts in all industries. Organized labor exists because of its ability to obtain and maintain high wage levels for the membership. If wages fall the effectiveness of organization is scooted and reflected by resignations and failure to pay dues. It is said that government officials and executives of the labor groups are cognizant that wage scale adjustments are inevitable. Their problem is to settle the matter with a minimum of friction and unrest. Even the allpowerful railway workers' unions have read the writing on the wall. They are hopeful that plans for freight rate increases will be carried out so that the railroads may operate on a high average. Opinions in the nation's capital are to the effect that freight rate advances, if any, will be negligible and economies in operation must be reached by various means including the scaling down of wages, and that spells "trouble." The spectacular maneuvers of the Army sir service in the Middle West and East have other aspects than toe military training. This winter the Congress will be called on to lop off large sums from appropriations for the military and naval establishments. If the public is sufficiently impressed so that their interest may be exploited in letters to legislators, it is an easy bet that Congress will not ran rough shod over the demands for army funds. The Navy is handicapped in their propaganda for it is physically fanpossible to stage these shows to the admiring throngs. They pursue other tactics. Legislators are invited to attend battle fleet stunts and touring legislators are entertained royally on Navy ships. By this means the Senators and Representatives obtain first hand information which is supplemented by other details direct from the Navy high command at Washington. Despite the President's plans for economy in these services not much hope is held out for drastic cuts in their appropriations.
