Samuel Uompers, nresiucm 01 ic
a p,Uratim of T.ahor. said
the failure of the conference to rec-
oenize definitely the orgaw rations
of workers trade unions as the
basis for representation was a fatal
omission, .while rranic jucmsun,
secretary of the federation, noting
the absence of reference by the con
ference to collective bargaining or
the necessity for organizations of
..nrlr caiH BrlV Olie who WOUld
avert or'postpone industrial conflicts
could not ignore ncsc imui.:pre
Mr r.nmnir declared the com
mission should reconsider ths ques
tion of definite recognition 01 iraac
unions "in order to make possible
the confidence and ro-opcri-tion of
wage earners, which cai be ex
pressed only through orgir:'zations
of their own making."
Avoid Compulsory Features.
"Any plan to establish or main
tain anything like fair relations be
tween workers and employers must
avoid compulsory features." he de
clared. "Any proposal for compul
sory labor is repugnant to American
sovereignty and citizenship"
Mr. Morrison said the declaration
against government employes join
ing the American- Federation of La
bor "would indicate that the com
mission has been affected by the
temporary waive of anti-unionism.
"The statement," he added, "offers
no hope for lovers of, 'ndustnal
peace, who see tne necessity 01
abolishing autocracy in industry and
giving employes a direct oice in
their working conditions.
"It is no solution to empower the
president and a cabinet official to
select representatives of workers to
adjust disputes. The workers must
have this power tnemseives.
"Little of Interest."
Mr. Gompcrs said that exr.ept for
its opening declaration, ne- naa
found "nothing new and li:t!e of in
terest' in the conterence report.
"In the ODening statement, Mr.
Gompers continued, "the report sets
forth the right relationship between
employer and employe in large in-
Jt. -n hm nrnmntfd bv the de-
uuMUta . " . - - - ,
hberative organization of that rela
tionship.' But the report iaus 10 givt
definite recognition to the applica
tion of this truth. Both employirs
and employes must be organized in

tration otherwise mc iun;.."..
r;K,.n-i miisr rlpal with individuals
instead of organized groups. The
principle of representation uepcuus

Rights of Citizens.
"The mass of America's workers
are American citizens and in that
sovereign citizenshio they are free
men. Any proposal for compulsory
labor is repugnant to American sov
ereignty and citizenship.
"In order to promote constructive
and permanent changes that will
eliminate causes of much industrial
unrest the conference should con
sider governmental agencies to pro
vide the necessary information and
assistance in securing continuous
betterment of working conditions.
That problem must ultimately be
worked out by employers and em
ployes, but the government should
advise and assist.
"It should always be borne in
mind that our social fabric is based
on mutuality and voluntary institu
tions. . ..
"It is something not yet fully un
derstood how perfectly safe free
dom is."

Artificial Ear Made
By Omaha Surgeons f oi
Head of Young Iowan
xAnthony Robinet, 21 years 'old,
living in Hospers, la., had an artU
ficial ear fastened to his head in
Omaha yesterday to replace.one cut
off in an accident eight year ago.
This is the first case of facial recon
struction to be ncrfornied here.
Dr. George M. Boehler, a former
member xi Nebraska Base Hospital
No. 49 modeled the ear. He studied
facial reconstruction in Queen's hos
pital, London. In modeling the car
he first reproduced the natural ear
in wax and made a mould, into
which the composition in the new
ear was poured.
Dr. J. P. Lord fastened the ear to
the head by means of platinum
wires concealed in openings in the
head. The artificial ear is difficult
to detect so nearly is it reproduced
in color and form. Doane Powell,
Bee cartoonist, tinted the ear to re
produce the translucent appearance.
