Washington.—Because he believes women often are more valuable than men in the field of labor concilia tion, James J. Davis, secretary of labor, entrusts some of his most knotty strike problems to feminine solution. He argues that a woman is very likely to be best able to handle woman strikers and that a roman certainly can handle men. "Sometimes the smile of a wom an can do more to settle a strike than all the arguments a man can make,” said the secretary. "Some times a capitalist very ‘set’ in his mind looks at a woman's smile and says ‘maybe I’m wrong.’ "A woman has the same sooth ing way of pacifying the conten tious mind of a labor leader, that she has in managing her business employer. She is used to taming the wild beast at home, and when ever we men are she sets us rfljht.” As an example of the able way in which a woman commissioner of conciliation adjusts strikes <n which men workers are concerned, Secretary Davis etted the record of Miss M. Emmilinnc Pitt of Pitts burgh. A woman of independent means, an ordained preacher of the United Presbyterian faith, Miss Pitt en tered conciliation work six yekrs ago because she was interesved in its humanitarian aspects, j, Her ability to deal with men workers was discovered tnrougii an error. A telegram to Washing ton told of a "fabric workers’ •’ strike. Department of labor offi cials thought the fabric workers were women. They sent Miss Pitt, who promptly settled a strike of men making steel fabrication for street cars. In the last five months, Miss I*itt has adjusted six strikes, all in volving men wofkers.
