Have the Suppprt of Labor Dele
gates, and the Brotherhoods.
Washington, — Concrete proposals
designed to bring about better rela-'
tionl between employers and the em
ployed were laid before the national
Industrial conference by members of
the^ various groups making up the
gathering. The proposals included:
“Arbitration of the nation-wide
steel strike wltR. warnrnsf'the ’ man t
work pending settlement; an indus
trial truce starting immediately and
continuing three months; creation of
an arbitration board by the President
and Congress, and including among
its members all ex-Presidents; and a
comprehensive plan for adjudication
of Industrial disputes through boards
of arbitration in the various indus
tries.”
. The proposal for settlement of the
steel strike, introduced by Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, and one of the
delegates, soon after, the conference
met in the first of the day’s two ses
sions, came as a surprise to the
groups representing the public and
the employers. In offering the propo
sal, Mr. Gompers explained that it
had the support of the labor delegates
Including the representatives of the
railroad brotherhoods. The proposal,
like all others submitted, under the
conference rules was referred to the
general committee composed at five
representatives of each group.

TO RE1IN IN BED
COTERIE OF PHYSICIANS SAY A
— PROLONGED REST IS AN
ABSOLUTE NEr.FftStTV.
Plizzum IBISES
A Possibility, Incident to Peculiar
Situation la That Vice President
May Be Given Full Control.
Washington.—Hope that President
Wilson might regain his normal
health and resume fully the duties of
his office was swept away by his phy
sicians, who announced it would be
impossible for him to leave his bed
“for an extended period.”
The announcement, mpd^ after a
consultation between Rear .Admiral
Grayson and the three other physi
cians aiding in the case, said there
had been no interruption of the Presi
dent’s slow improvement, buh empha
sized that he still had a long road to
travel before he reached complete re
covery. '
The physicians’ announcement was
not taken to mean that Mr. Wilson
would be prohibited from sitting up
in bed and it was considered entire
ly possible that he might be permit
ted to sign a few important bills and
orders each day as his progress con
tinues.
Announcement that President Wil
son cannot leave his bed “for an ex
tended period although in keeping
with the program of rest originally
planned for Mr. Wilson by Dr. Gray
son, brought home to officials the pos
slble effect of the President’s illness
on public affairs and renewed discus
sion as to what expedient might be
adopted should the press of the exec
utive business reach a point demand
ing more attention than he could
give It.
The constitution provides that in
case of the President’s disability the
vice president shall act as chief ex-
ecutivfiubut there is no precedent for
such a transfer of authority and offi
cial opinion is divided as to how It
might be brought about sfctould the
necessity arise.
Who could declare a President's
disability is known to present some
thing of a puzsle to the legal advisers
of the government. The constitution
lr silent on the point.
