Gov.-Elect Foss' Action.

Pittsfield, Mass, Nov. 23.-Allen I.
Treadway, president of the Massacnu-
sets Senate, in a statement made pub
lie today. severely criticizes the action
of Governor Elect Eugene n. Foss IN
declaring political warfare against the
re- election of Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge. Mr.. Treadway says that he
endorses the views expressed last night
by Speaker Walker of the Massachu-
sets House of Representatives and
that personally he believes that the
governor elect has no more right to
dictate to the members of the Lesisla-
ture who should be chosen senator
than has justice of the state supreme
court. Since election, Mr.. Treadway
says, he has met all of the senator's
elect and he knows that only two of
the Republican members are opposed
to the election of Senator Lodge.

traffic commissioner for that league,
formerly freight manager of the Wa

league represented upwards Of 65 per-
cent. of the freight tonnage out of st.

justification for the proposed increases
in rates which he arraigned as grossly
unfair and discriminative.
He contended that the present rates
on which the business Of the country
has been based We're adequate and
among other things pointed out that

manufacturers of Grand Rapids what
the action of the National Association
of Furniture Manufacturers of Ameri-

action he quoted as:
I'VE, the furniture manufacturers Of
America, are unalterably opposed to
any general advance in the present
freight rates, as contemplated by the
railroads. believing any such advance
unnecessary and wholly inequitable
and without justification. Practically
all Grand Rapids factories approvee."
Yesterday two witnesses from Grand
Rapids declared that while they OBJ
jected to the pending increase in the
official classification territory they
would have no complaint to make
against uniform advance through the
country.

ton Of the industrial warfare between
labor and capital which Frank B.
