AVI A TTIM-A receivea accepKuiceo num uixv representatives of a majority of them. Practically every State, In the Union will be represented at the conference, which was proposed primarily for. the purpose of bringing about co-operation between the Office of Information and cfoa Kvrftea. Th6 business of f iUlU0 UtVV - t the Office of Information Is to impart to incoming immigrants jtnowieuB in specting regions where profitable work can be . had. - Mr. Powderly is- -most largely, interested ,in. locaUng Immi grants on farms or sending tnem. Into sections of the country where farm la bor is in demand. One purpose in this Is ot divert the incoming, tide of im migration from the congested centers of population, where, ordinarily, the labor market is glutted. In the past there has been a lack of co-operation, due, to a large extent, to lack of knowledge of the work and aims' of the Federal Office of Infor mation. Secretary Nagel and other officials of the Department of Com merce ami Labor, are keenly interest ed in bringing about effective' co-op eration between the Federal and State offices; vwhich have common interest in labor : problems. Representatives of" some . free employment lagencie also have been invited to be present at the conference. Secretary Kagel will deli ver an address to the . dele gates. ; No fixed programme will be arrang ed for the conference, beyond the gen eral, subject of 'co-operation. Every delegate has been requested to come to Washington prepared to express his views and to make suggestions re gasding the work of the Office of In formation, y It was thought best not. to. have a set programme with speak ers assigned in advance to discuss specified subjects. - ThiS it 13 believ ed, will make th conference more at It is for the purpose of determining the best means of bringing about ef fective co-operation that the confer ence was called. A fipal letter is now being addressed to the various. State officials who".have been corresponding with Mr. Powderly, with a view to as certaining exactly how many dele gates may be expected and, so far as known who. -they will be.
