WILSON IS MISSKD
No matter what one's political
faith may b<*. all must agree that
President Wilson's guiding hand is
mi.-sed at the present time. It was
Wilson who time and time again show -
id tl\** way for various settlements
during the peace conference at Paris.
Since his return to the Cnited States
he has always been the one man who
ha- been a steering committee of on**
♦'or all difficulties. His presence at tin*
P esent National Industrial conference
in Washington, is sadly missed, tor he
;> a man of convictions and when he
ha- point- to make, they are given
from the shoulder. The dispatches yes
:erda> stated h** was opposed to the
Industrial conference adjourning at
present. trouble having arisen over
labor's demands for arbitration in the
steel -trike. The steel strike is not tin*
* :d\ important matter to com** before
tin* conference. With tin* President at
the coatV’vne**. -*»me way would have
..p devised by now for better condi*
tw*n- nth* industrial world.
