CHURCHMEN FLAY S STEEL CONDITIONS n Report on Labor Predicts1 Industrial War Unless Government Acts. Fears that the steel industry in the United States is drifting: toward "unrestricted warfare" between laborer and employer is expressed in a let! ter addressed to President Wilson by i a commission of the Interchurch World Movement. which asks the I'resident to appoint a commission to s'ljust differences in the steel industry. such as that which investigated! the bituminous coal situation a few j i months ago. j The letter was accompanied by the j i .church commission's report of the late steel strike, a document contain- i : i.ig y4.000 words which, in the words ; of Daniel A. Poling, secretary, con j statutes "h serious indictment of the < i labor policy of the United States | Steel Corporation." Unless vital changes are brought to j < : pass, the letter says, a renewal of i ' the conflict in the steel mills seems i ! inevitable. 1 ltelieve? FactN 4re Presented. I "There ran be no doubt that the I report will be regarded by the pub- * i lie as strongly favoring the laboring 1 i man's side of the ease." said I >r. Pol- 1 I ing in making public the report. "The j commission believes that such im- 1 I pression corresponds wholly with the ' j facts it has discovered." < j The commission which made the in- ' | vestigat ion included Dr. Doling. 1 i Bishop McDonnell (chairman). Bishop j William Bell Mrs. Fred Bennett. I George \V. Coleman, Dr. John McDowell. Prof. Alva W. Taylor. Dr. Nicholas Van Der Pyl and Bishop Charles D. Williams, s Kxcessive hours, the "boss" system >f and denial of the right of organization and representation are the fundamental e grievances which the commission re< ported. "All the conditions that caused the steel strike continue to exist," the re port concludes. "We feel that unless t. changes are made approximating in \ some degree the findings here presented another strike must come. In the c measure tb .t workingmen become intelligent and Americanized will they re> fuse to labor under such conditions." Major Reccommendation*. Nine major recommendations are made by the commission, including th^ recognition of an eight-hour day, six days a week, an extension of house ' building, adoption of a broad and Amer"e ican policy by the unions, and investi gation by the government of relations e between federal authorities and the "under cover" men of private corporations. Other recommendations in the report are : "That the President's industrial con* fere rice plan for standing tribunals of conciliation and publicity be given a I fair trial.
