Collective Bargaining the

'Washington despatch: It will be a
miracle to more than a majority o
the Industrial Conference it tha
body coatinues to function after to
morrow. No vote was reached to -day
on a recognition of the right to col-
lective bargaining as phrased in a re
solution reported by the General Com-
mitee, but R must cone soon. In a
frank and at times sensational debate
n was stated for labor that failure to
agree on the resolution as amended
would prove the cotifeosince to be of
uo more benefit to labor, and members
of the employers' group made it
equally clear that in its present shape
the resselutione could not be accepted
by them. No hope of any other re-
port was offered by the committee. if
the vote could have been taken before
the session ended the resolution
would have,beeu rejeeted. Labor alone
stood out for hninediate decision.
The employer*. group is in session
to -night in an earnest effort to meet
what seems to be an impossible situa-
tioh. There is just a bare chance of
an agreement by the group on soma
concession for the continuance of the
conferente, whiclx it very Much de-
nires, for further consideration of this
and of differences whieh have not

The resolution, wbich it seems must

It is predicted that ,the

In the meantime, all the British

ed for a great trade offeneive, which
is expected frnitfully to follow the
Bolshevist defeat, tinder the aegis of
the Oversee Trade Department of the

Sawdust Valuable.
It is not very long ago since enev-
dust at the mills was considered a
nuteance and for the greater part was
thrown Into the water. If a small
quantity of it could be sold now and
again, i1 brought a price of from 1
to 11/2 cents per bushel. The largest
mills in Norway thought they did
well when they could earn from saw-
dust $2,000 to $3,000 a year. Now
this.refase has become valuable, the
price baying -risen from 10 to 15 cents,
and front the large quantities sold
forms a considerable item in the in-
comes of the mills, some -of them aow
earning from this source po,000 to
$40,000 a year. The reasons for this
heavy rise in the value of sawdust
are several, The high prices of fuel
during the last few years havenaused
sawdust to be employed as fuel. How-
ever, sawdust attained its principal
value after the cellulose mills com-
menced to use the material: and there.
by it has secured a steady demand
and, what is more important for the
future, a comparatively high price,
when the prices of fuel again become
manual. •

EQUATA coNTItoL OF QIBRALTHR,
New York, Oct. 17,—A. sugges-
tion that Great Britain share • the
control of Gibralter with the United
States was made by Henry Morgen-
thau to -day on his return from a
seven -months' abroad, prim.
arily as Oatmeal' of a committee
appointed by president 'Wilson to
it vestigate pogroms in Poland.,
Referring to his previous advocacy
of the acceptance by the 'United
States of a mandate for Constantin-

NIorgenthau said:
"Our people will expect Great
Britain to welcome us In the Medi-
terranean and the Near East, not as
a rival or competitor, but as a full
partner with all rights, privileges
and responsibilities. I have thought
1.eepfy tui to how Great Britain can
demonstrate her willingness, anti
think the beet way would be by her
giving us an equal control of the
Straits of Gibraltar."
Mr. Morgenthau said he offered
the suggestion on his own initiative;
without the knowledge of any gov-
ernmental authorities. 'The idea did,
not occur to hint, he said, until he
was 'bound for New • 'York 'On the

"The 'British are extremely
