President Eliot to Go to New York.

President Eliot will go to New York the latter part of this week to take part in the meeting of the executive committee of the National Civic Federation which will be held on Friday and Saturday, December 18 and 19. This committee, composed of twelve representatives of the employers of labor, twelve labor leaders, and twelve men representing the general public, was formed a few years ago in order that there might be a competent board of arbitration to settle labor difficulties. The coming conference is one of the regular semi-annual meetings for the discussion of general business.
