New York, Feb. l9.-The attitude Of
organized labor on the subject of in
oressing the size Of the United states
navy was reflected last night IN the
discussion Of resolution presented in
the Central Federated union urging the
building OF more batteships. The res
o.ution was adopted with the impor-
tant proviso that the ships be built in
government yards instead of by pri-
vate companies. Not all the delegates
were agreed as 10 the adyisablllty Of
increasing the navy. delegate OF the
Amalgamated cd-Workers union
making the assertion that his con-
science forbade him to sanction the
manufacture OF machines to murder
human beings" Another delegate said
hls feelings were just as sensitive in
the matter, but so long as ''murderous
machines are to be built he argued
that union men ought to be employed
in the work.
A delegate of the Seamens union said
that the batteships the government
now has are rustlng at anchor, He
said he did not see the use Of building
more vessels, because union men are
not employed in them when they are
finished.
Action at this time Is particularly de-
sired because the battleship Connecti-
cut now building in the Brooklyn navy
yard, will soon be completed. II was
affirmed that 20 per cent Of the EN-
ployes already have been thrown out OF
work because there are no more bat

CLAICHE, a 2a-year-old French girl on the
charge Of shooting and killing Emil
Gerdron. on the night Of July last was
scheduled TO begin today in the court OF

~ pathetic one and an element Of mys-
terry is attached to il,
Berthe CLAICHE claims that Gordron, who
was young giant standing over six feet
tall and Weighing nearly $50 pounds had
made her his slave flr six years during
which time she said he beat her and fore
ed her upon the streets TO earn a living
for him. So impressive was her story
that the money for her defense has been
largely supplied nv contributions from
women Of New York city Although the
girl admitted that she allied Gerdron, the
circumstances surrounding the shooting
were so unusual that they have given rise
TO charges that members OF the police had
secretly urged the girl on. Gcidron was
shot while under arrest and walking
along the street In the custody or three
officers. II Is now claimed that $50
which Gerdron Is said to have had on his
person at the time, was missing when the
contents OF his pockets were turned over
TO police headquarters
BERTHE CLAICHE said that Gerdron
brought her here from France when she
was Ii ycare VI age and forcbly made her
woman " the streets, ON the night "
July $ she ran from her room and CONF
planned 10 three officers whom she met
that Gertlron had beaten her and that she
