NOT YET FOUND IN SEARCH
When Mrs. Mabln Pay. proprietress of
a lodging house at 211 NVr.ti Eighteenth
street, entered a room last night ahirh
she had rented an hour before to a young
man and a slrkly-appesring young
woman, she found that both lodgers had
taken their leave, abandoning a suitcase
hr!i the woman carried.
Calling in other roomers, she opened
the grip and found a tlnv girl, appar
ently less than three days old. The po
ll r mere Immediately notified, and Ser
geant T. II. Dillon after a brief Investi
gation uncovered a pitiful story besides
finding that the mother was the daugh
ter of one of his life-long friends.
The girl, who until recently wa a
tealoiia worker In Jewish circles, has
been living at the home of relatives
while her psrents are sojourning In the
west. In the course of her duties In con
nection with the church she met a young
man who hetrsyed her and fled.
Fearing to let her relatives discover
her plight, the girl left their house and
took a room downtow n, where, the child
was born. As soon as she was sble she
told her story to the one relntlva In
whom site thought she could confide,
and he took lier to the rooming house
and the desertion of the child followed.
Tollce sought the woman last night,
but were unable to locate her. Her
friends, now that they know, want her
hack again with the child and promise
them a home. Last night they arranged
with the Child Saving Institute to care
for the Infant. In event the mother Is
found prosecution Is unlikely.

"There Is another cause of Industrial
discontent and this, too, flows from a
Rockefeller source. This is the skillful
attempt that la being made to substitute
philanthropy for iustioe. There la not one
of theae foundations, now spreading their
millions over the world, in ahowy gen
erosity, that does not draw those millions
from some form of Industrial Injustice.
It Is not their money that thee lords of
commercial virtue are spending, but the
withheld wages of tha American work
ing class."
Mr. I,awson continued:
"Mr. Rockefeller, senior, Is quoted a
aylng that God must be brought to New
Tork. In Colorado there is a Buffering
multitude that asks only for a little of
tho aplrlt of the Christ who died for
human brotherhood.
Where) They Lie,
"The causes of Industrial unrest are not
to be removed by promises of endless in
vestigation or by sudden willingness to
hold conference. They He in the treat
ment of free men as chattels to be duv
posed of by deed and will; In absentee
landlordism; Irf the theft of natural re
sources; or, Indifferenpes to the necessi
ties and aspirations of those who toil in
the dark for the benefit of those in tha
light.
"Nor will Mr. Rockefeller's proposal
for the election of men In coal camps
mort tha needs of collective bargaining.
Thia Is in truth tha shadow and not tha
substance, for men so elected! unless
backed by an organization, wider even
than state lines, will be utterly helpless
In the hands of those who have sanc
tioned past grievances.
"Nothing his been more clearly shown
by your investigation than that workers
are unable to protect themselves as In
dividuals, but can only gain this protec
tion through organization In local, stute,
national and international forms.
Agren to Principle.
"In the ordinary at least, Mr. Kocke
feller agree to the principle of unionism.
All that remains Is to give this the ordi
nary purpose and effect, something that
cannot be dona by simple expressions of
good will or a suddenly expressed desire
for meeting.
"Tha United Mine Workers of America
Is the one organization that represents
labor in this great Industry. Jt has been
In existence for twenty-five years. It
has a present membership of more than
400.0D0 and enjoys contractual relations
with amployera In nineteen states. It
has kept these contracts inviolate.
"With these facta in mind. I insist
that Mr. Rockefeller cannot give effect
to thla new point of view except with
tha co-operation of the United Mine
Workera of America. By official confer
ence with tha executive of thia organi
sation action should be taken to guar
antee the enforcement of the mining and
labor laws long violated In Colorado and
the establishment of the principle in
practice, of collective bargaining.
Desire for Peace.
"Press reports give great publicity to
meetings that allege 1 to have arrange
between Mr. Rockefeller and the t'nlted
Mine Workera officials. Lt me say that
our ona great desire la for laating In
dustrial peaoa. Wa rejoice that after all
these years Mr. Rockefeller la at last ft
aisposea to consiaer ana corner wiin the j
workera his company officials have '.
despised. Ignored and endeavored to I
crush.
"Wa welcome any and every conference,
but these meetings should be official and 1
purposeful, not merely social visits,
designed to gtva tha utterly false Im
pression that industrial war has had no
more vital cause than a failure on Mr. ,
Rockefeller's part to shako bands. So i
fur as possible the remedies must euual
and be as real aa our gvest wrongs."
