A RAP AT GOMPERS
JOHN KIRBY, SJR., TALKS OF LABOR
 UNIONS.
Mr. Kirby Was Yesterday Chosen to Head National Association of Manufacturers, Succeeding
 James w. Van Cleave.

New York, May 19.-John Kirby. Jr.. was unanimously elected to the Prest- dency of the National Association of Manufacturers at today's session of the annual meeting. The election was the occasion of a demonstration in honor of J. w. Van Cleave. the retir- ing President, whose policies MT. Kirby pledged himself to follow.
 Mir Gompers," said Mir. Kirby "has said that while MT. Van Cleave would pretend to refuse a nomination, he would in reality be dropped by the as- sociation. If Mir. Gompers could have been present today when Mir. Van Cleave was made the recipient of every marI,of appreciation and respect with in the gift of the association and It's members individually. he undoubtedly would have amended his judgment of the causes lying at the bottom of my election. Now that have been chosen to succeed MT. Van Cleave, however I do not know where his consolation Is to come from.
 Our organiza ton Is pledged to face the labor question. It involves great principle which cannot be fooled with, compromised with, or temporized with, if America Is to remain America. The life of the American Federation is hanging by a thread and there would
 
 if it we're not for the support of mis- guided philanthropists' and women's societies, who are constantly keeping up the agitation. My policy will be that of Janfes w. Van Cleave. do not believe in compromise with crimi- nals. It is better to bring the whole labor question to pointed issue in- stead of temporizing and fooling with it. The only way to deal with this animal is to take 1t by the horns till it Is made obedient. If we had to deal with the s5 per cent of labor men who are for justice and fairness. we could settle this whole labor problem in an instant"
 The afternoon session closed with the presentation of a diamond ring to Mir. Van Cleave by J. McKinery of San Francisco. in behalf of the Citizens' Industrial Association of San Francisco uud the California members of the association, as a token of appreciation of his efforts "to uphold individual liberty in the industrial life of the country"

After advising with a number of friends and carefully considering the matter. I am convinced that 1t is my duty to hold the office orSepator until qualify as Tax Collector on August l, or. until there Is some apparent req son for believing that I would not be eligible to serve as the representative Of this county. in the event of an extra session sof the Legislature. As tkere ,s nothing at this time to indicate that 1 would be Ineligible to serve. have decided to defer any action for future developments"
 This statement of Senator Charles B. unless the Governor issues a call for the extra session of the Legislature to assemble later than August T. that oody Will most likely see the Mont when the gavei falls for action. MT. Teasley, 1t is understood visited the Capitol yesterday to get some light on It Is said that the the Governor % was aer inier- viewed but that official. In his custom ary reticence about the extra session, disclosed nothing of his intentions. ernor's mind, Mir. Teasley is determir- ed to retain his seat as he Is legally entitled So dY and as he feels t his pounden dutysto do: until he Is actual will not be disqualified until August 1, for not until then does his term as Tax Collector of Montgomery County begin/ Every indication is that the extra session win convene some time early In July. S
 So far there has not been heard any criticism of Senator Teasley's course in this matter It is repeatedly rumored that Governor Conner. knowing that MT: Teasley is of opposite political tude which would force his resignation. It is said that tise Governor would not announce the date of the extra session call until the resignation of Mir. Teasley is in his hands
 Whether this view of the case is true or not. MT. Teasley's constituents seem 10 be in favor of his holding his seat until it is certain that he will be disqualified The Montgomery County Senator Is recognized as one of the most forceful leaders of the anti-ad- ministration forces in the Legisia ture. Also he is s known revenue expert and would throw an enfulgent light on any tinancial unestion of state. should the Governor decide to put 1t up to the solonS.
 The race for Representative from this County for the extra session Is be- ing run with increased vigor before the County Democratic Executive Coui- mittee. The meeting has been called for Saturday noon and the nominee for Hon. R. Tyler Goodwyn's successor will be then selected. It is said that Frank Stollenwerck, Jr.. Is, making a good fight while Alderman James Par rish is also In the running. It Is now recognized that one of these two young men will land the honor.
