Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in the closing hours of the pan-American .labor con ference today, served formal warning that no, general reduction of wages or increase in working hours after the war would be accepted without a bit - ter fight by organized labor. Mr. Gompers issued a statement in spired by a recent public utterance of William H. Barr president of the na tion founders association, that- a re duction of wages and longer hours would be the only means to enable American manufacturers to continue to cope w-th foreign industries after the sr-&r. "Notice is given here and now," Mr. Gompers said, "that, the American peo ple will not be forced back by either Barr, his association or all the bour bons in the United States." President Gompers read into the rec ord a' published" statement in which Mr. Barr was quoted. "Perhaps I might not have taken notice of this declaration if the same character of information had not come to me from various, quarters," Mr. Gompers said. "There are some people who will not ' understand; they ere some people who do not understand all this is meant by the willingness of the people of the democracies to fight and make the sacrifices in order that a better time 6hall come to the worker. The time has come in the -world when the work ing people are coming into their own. They have new rights and new ad vantages. They have made the sacri fices and they are going to enjoy the better times for which -the whole world has been in a convulsion. The American labor movement wholeheart edly supported this world struggle. The American labor movement went to the fullest lengths in support of that struggle and we knew Just what was involved. -"One word more, the American la bor movement will co-operate with all Other agencies to help in this recon struction time. Our movement is not to destroy, but to contruct. And all may just as well understand now as at any other time that the advantage which the workers of America and of the allied countries have gained and which we hope to extend to the people ever of the conquered countries are not going to be taken away from us. And we will resist in that attempt-to the uttermost." The conference adjourned after a pan-American federation of labor had been formed and Samuel Gompers elected its chairman. The objects of the new labor feder ation are the establishment of better conditions for working people who ' migrate from one American country to another; the establishment of better -understanding among the ' working - peoples of the Americas and the utili zation of every means .for the promo tion end welfare of the peoples of these countries. Each country will be entitled to at least two delegates. The federation will maintain permanent headquarters in Washington. The fed eration will meet annually in July. Prince Max at Baden-Baden. Basel, Nov. 16. Prince Maximilian of Baden, former German chancellor, .has arrived at Baden-Baden with his 'family. It is said that-he will make a long stay there. DEMOBILIZATION OF SOLDIERS STARTED (C.-ntinued wrom Pasre Onei. to save time, the name of every mart -killed, wounded and missing up to the time of the armistice not hitherto re ported." BAKER THANKS OFFICERS AND MEN OF ARMY AT HOME ; Washington, Nov. 16. Secretary Ba 4cer today formelly expressed his . thanks to officers and men of the army 'in the United States. for the zeal shown in preparing for overseas duty. Mr. Baker expressed confidence that the standards of discipline and bearing will---be maintained by the men in training until demobilized. This state ment follows: "The signing of the military armis tice enables us to suspend the inten sive military preparation in which the country was engaged. It does not, however, signify the formal end of the war and it will, therefore, be neces . sary for us to keep under arms a sub stantial army until we are certain what the military needs, of the coun try ;will be. The men in service in the United States will be demobilised as rapidly as is consistent with the needs of the government. "In the meantime I desire to express to the officers and soldiers under arms In - the United States the appreciation of the department for their patriotic - eeal and service. That they were not called upon to go abroad and not per mitted to participate in the historic struggle in France leaves them none Che less a part of the great armv of "r- nation and entled to the thanks of the nation for their readiness to serve. All officers and men can rely - upon the sympathy and activity of the S,ertm3ent in tnelr early return home. Both, officers and men will realize that tt is their duty to continue with the training and work, and to maintain in thfi -f he?t de&ree the discipline and U ?dl6Tly bearing which is the great . B-lory of the army, of which tlley are "t. party. EW PARLIAMENT MUST BE CHOSEN 't. , Cortlnued from Page One.) ; their, unflagging support, even to being construction of the ;iew. edifice.

Up to 8 o'clock tonight the counties reporting in North Carolina show, a total of $831, 160 for the united war work fund with many counties yet to be heard from. The total subscriptions today was 1107,588. Forty-four colleges in the state report 144,159.06; 24 are yet to be heard from. Dr. John R. Mott, national chairman of the war work .campaign. New York, has received the following message from John Skelton Williams, comp troller of the currency: "In reply to your inquiry I regret to advise you 'that the joint resolution empowering the boards of directors aa behalf of national banks to make sub scriptions to the united war work campaign, which has passed the sen ate, has not been "reported upon by the house committee for lack of a quorum. It is hoped this resolution may become a law shortly, meanwhile there is. no reason which national banks, desiring to do so, should not make conditional subscriptions to the ,fund, such subscriptions to become ef fective only when the bill becomes a law."" The Union Pacific railroad has set a fine example for railways under gov ernment control, by leading off with subscription to Uie war workers fund of 1100,000. President Wilson has just sent an important telegram, conjointly to Na tional Chairman Mott, director gener al, and Cleveland Dodge, treasurer, of the war work campaign, which reads as follows: "White House, Washington, Nov. 15. I am sure that the entire American people are following with eager and responsive interest the progress of the united war work campaign now that cessation of hostilities has come. We have entered upon a period in which the work of our seven welfare agen cies assumes, if possible, an added im portance as the excitement under which our soldiers and sailors have been working is withdrawn. Their hours of leisure are much more num erous, their temptations are greatly multiplied and intensified. It is clear that to minister to them, all of their time is going to be .required, and a larger financial outlay needed than when they were being served but a small fraction of their time. Only a few more days remain before the cam paign closes and very much more money will be needed before the de sired large oversubscription is secured. I can not but believe that our people from one end of the country to the other will rally in generous and sacri ficial giving to complete this fund and to give our "men this fresh and unmis takable evidence that we are all still behind them, and with them during their patient and, long vigil in our be half, and in the sole interest of com pleting the high patriotic duty on which we sent them forth."

After reading the order, General Bliss called to mind that , when the first division went away, many doubted if it would be followed by another for at least a year. "But," .he added, "you have created and organized and trained here on the soil of France an American army of between two and two and a half mil lion men. You have created- the agencies for its reception. Its trans portation and supply. To the delight of all of us you have consistently adhered to your ideal of an American army under American officers and Am erican leadership. "And I know that I speak for our president," said General Bliss in con clusion, "when I say that as to those who have died the good God has given eternal rest, so may He give to us eternal peace. ARMY "HUT CIRCUIT" LONGEST IN WORLD How the Soldiers Overseas Are Served by the Theatrical Companies Di versions for the Men. Pittsburgh, Pa. Nov. 16-The "hut circuit" of theatrical performances In the American army in France is per haps the longest and largest in the world. Thomas Wood Stevens, head of the department of dramatic arts at the Carnegie Institute of Technology, who has just returned from France where he was associated in the production of soldier talent shows, estimates that a single company playing every night to different soldiers, would require eleven years to go through the American army in France. "The general scheme of diversion ior our men in France," said Mr. Step-ens, is in three general divisions. There is the "Over-There" theatre league, rep resented in New York by George M. Cohani Winthrop Ames and James managed by Walter Johnson, and the Forbes; the French concert companies Soldier Tent Shows under the direc tion of Joseph Lindon Smith. Mr. Ste vens went to France primarily to help Mr. Smith 'with the soldier talent directors for these performances with shows. Together they selected 25 local the various Young Men's Christian as sociation divisional, headquarters. Now E. C. Carter, chief secretary of the' Y. M. C. A. in France, has asked' for more directors, and -the -.Carnegie institute has announced that as soon as the in fluenza quarantine is lifted it will be gin to train 25 additional men and women Y. M. C. A. workres for this work. Difficulty of transporting properties and costumes is one of the hardest problems in improvising shows for the soldiers, according to Mr. Stevens. They had to be carried in small valises. In stead of drays, piled high with trunks and the directors had to make their shows fit on the small stages of the "Y" huts instead of the big theatre stages. "One of my jobs has been to discover or write plays for use where no cos tumes of props, even citizen's clothes, can be had; that is to say, soldier plays, not war plays," said Mr. Stevens. My first effort in this direction, called 'Three Wishes,' has been given in a dozen camps at present, but we want other plays Just as we need many more directors. The 25 we have at work are far too fwe. HEAD OF THE ORDER OF OWLS ARRESTED Indictment Charges Misuse of Malls In Publishing Statement Tending ta - Incite Murder. Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 16. John W.
