Committee Appointed.
A resolution providing for an appro-
pirate demonstration was introduced at
the regular meeting of the union last
night by F. C. Roberts, president OF
Columbia typographical Union, No. 101.
The resolution met with instant and un-
aminous approval. The following com.
mittee was named to make the arrange
ments:
Milton Snellings, F. c. Roberts, Cabell
Adams, John B. Colpoys, Z. L. Adams

drew Carnegie and the proposed arbitra-
ton treaty between this country and
Great Britain were also passed. Car
negie, the advocate of peace. was refer
red to as hypocrite, and the arbitra-
ton treaty as a cunning trick for the
promotion of British interests alone.
Resolutions Adopted.
The resolutions. drawn up and intro
duced by P. J. Ryan. were. in part. as
follows:
Whereas the agitation in favor of
this treaty has been fostered in this
country by Andrew Carnegie. an invet-
crate enemy of organized labor. and is
maintained solely by the lavish expendi-
ture of the money which he wrung from
the blood and sweat of American work.
ingmen. Therefore. be II
Resolved. That we. as true friends of
peace, and representing the toiling
masses whip fill the army and navy. and
have to bear the chief burden when war
comes, and whose families would endure
all the suffering. declare our unrelenting
opposition to the proposed arbitration
treaty with Great Britain. for the 'rea-
son that it is not a genuine peace meas
ure. but. on the contrary. cunning
scheme to bring about an Anglo-Ameri-
can alliance for the promotion of British
interests alone.
For Mcnamara Defense.
I'VE denounce as hypocritical Andrew
Carnegie's pretense of zeal in the cause
Of peace and arbitration, and remind
American workingmen of the blood of
their comrades which his hirelings shed
at Homestead as a direct consequence
Of his refusal to arbitrate or to settle
the strike by any other peaceful method.
The ostentatious championship of the
cause of peace by such a man stamps
the whole movement with the indelible
brand of hypocricy.'
For the defense Of the Mcnamara
brothers the union appropriated 800,
while the women employed in the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing also appro-
priated SIS for the fund.

Continued from First Page.)

therefore believe 1t Is time for the
District of Columbia to have one. We
have had to solve a great many prob
lens concerning the District, and have
not been able to reach the public
service commission question as quickly
as some people would have liked, but
think we can now take 1t up, and
with the information from other COM
munities at hand. drart a bill embody-
ing the best features of all the laws.
That is what l am trying to do IN my
bill.
II think it would be a mistake for US
to pass a bill creating a new, indepen-
dent board, outside the jurisdiction OF
the District Commissioners. The result
would be bound to result in another
case of divided authority and response
bility. My idea Is to place in the hands
of the District Commissioners the power
to control and regulate the public ser
to employ whatever experts they need
to do the work that must be done.
The expense of an Independent board
think is untustifiable, as long as the
District already has one board of Com
missioners. fully qualified to assume the
duties that a public service commission
would have to perform. If the author
ity to control and regulate rests with
the Commissioners, the responsibility
for control and regulation will also rest
with them. They can be held strictly
accountable for results. just, as they
are now held accountable FOR the results
of their other activities in behalf of the
public"
Senator Gallinger said he did not care
to go into further detail as to the pro-
visions OF his bill, which he has outlined
only roughly. When 1t is introduced
and printed. he said. he was anxious
that all persons interested get copies
of It and study it.
In reply to a question as TO when he
expected to act on the question of a.
public service commission Senator Gal
linEer said:
Il expect to have my bill ready to in
troduce The first of next week. Whether

remains TO be seen. The details of the
law we enact will be the subject of de-
bate. undoubtedly, but i feel very GER
tain that a bill will be passed at this
session. l am going to do all in my
power to see that favorable action is
taken before adjournment"

Most Imposing Monument in
British Metropolis Shown
to People.

LONDON, May 16.-London witnessed
today the unveiling Of the great ma
tional memorial to Queen Victoria.

naval officers, diplomats and court
functionaries in brilliant uniforms, and
archbishops and bishops in the Grim

Hundreds of thousands of common
people stood by with heads uncovered
words of praise bestowed upon Vic
toria the Good" No greater tribute to
the memory of man or woman was ever
presented than this silent homage OF
the people.
The ceremony of unyeiling occurred
In the great circular space In st.
James park facing Buckingham Pal
ace, which in London was the Queen .
official home.
The war department had the super
the Archbishop of Canterbury prepared
the religious service. King George,
who seems to have inherited hip
fathers marvellous capacity for attend
ing tc details, has for several weeks
past given personal attention to the
ARRANGEMENTS for the unveiling.
All branches of the service were rep
resented in the military procession. A
CONSPICUOUS feature of the procession
was a deputation of officers and non
commissioned officers Of the First
Ora agoon Regiment Of the Guard, the
German army regiment Of which Queen
Victoria was colonel-in-chief.
The Queen Victoria Memorial. which
the masses were permitted to view to-
day for the first time, is undoubtedly
the most imposing monument in the
British metropolis The central fea-
ture is the statue of the Queen herself.
The marble statue of the Queen Is
eighfeen feet high.
