ACADEMY OFFICIALS BLAMED FOR
HAZING TROUBLE AT ANNAPOLIS

Washington, Dec. 15.-Officers of the
naval academy are harshly critiser for
winking at hazing IN a resolution intro
duced today by Representative Peary Of
Maryland. Charges were made against
the authorities of the academy as fol-

Not Opposed to Unions.
D. s. Murray, manager of the tele-
phone company, in speaking of the
trouble said:
We have taken no stand against Or
ganized labor. We have encouraged
organization among our employees. But
telephone company is a public utility
hence it must protect the public We
cannot have all our employees belong
ing to one union. II a strike was called
under such conditions, men in all
branches OF our service would walk
out and the public would suffer as a
result.
I'VE offered no objection when our
outside workers formed a union. An
agreement was made some time back
that outside men, such as linemen,
would join the union. while the inside
workers were 10 held no membership
in the local union. They had been
warned that such step would cause
their discharge. They paid no atten-
ton 10 this, so upon joining the union
they were let out. In taking this ac-
ton the company is determined to pro-
tect the public by preventing a possi-
BILE sympathetic strike gripping our
service"
Mr. Murray said the company would
stand firm by this decision. The dis
charged men VIII not be re-emplOyed.
Fifteen inside men accepted the COM
pany's decision, refusing 10 join the
union with the others.
Union is Undecided.
The union members have come to no
conclusion regarding further action.
Several of the most prominent of these
say the matter win be carried TO the
national union unless some agreement
is reached soon. The men claim the
company has no right TO discharge en-
ployes for becoming union members.

SUPERVISOR MOORE
HAS SLIGHT Stroke

There was a rumor on the street
last night after the adjournment of
the Board of Supervisors that Super
visor H. T. Moore had been stricken
with apoplexy.
Inquiry at his residence developed
the fact that On returning home last
evening he was taken with a vomiting
spell and that one of the glands of his
cheek had become partially paralyzed
This occurred about six p. m as Mr..
Moore was going up stairs to his room.
DR.. Wayson was Immediately sent for
and reported the cause to be as above.
The patient is resting easily and is ex-
pected to be out again in a few days.

by me has a running stream fed from
time ago Governor Carter stated that
he was going to divert this water to
lots 8, 4, 5, 6 and through pipes, which
lots are being used by the Dowsett Co.,
Ltd, for pasturing its cattle and
horses to the number of from 1900 to
1000 head. I told the Governor that if
he attempted to divert this water in
junction proceedings would follow, and
there the matter stands.
These are the only two transactions
regarding land and water rights that
have had with Governor Carter, and
any differences between him and me
in this matter have nothing whatever
to do with the stand that I have taken
regarding the expenditures of the ap-
preparations under the Loan Bill.
I have no hostility whatever,
against the Governor, but what 1 do
object to is to his enacting a Loan
Bill of his own, not only because it
differs in the amount, but in the sift-
ing of it to suit his own pleasure, thus
ignoring the rights of the Legislature.
It is true, as Governor Carter states,
that I personally worked to keep the
Loan expenditures down, but Governor
helped to spur on the Legislature
against any economy that 1 might ad
vocate.
