DISCUSSES sGLAYTON BILL
HE INSISTS n rs DESIGNED TO
DEFINE TIE RlGHTs OF
LABOR

Washington, Juiie president VIII
son today again expressed his convic-
ton that any present unsatisfactory
condition in business was not general,
but was less felt in the United States
than any other p7rt of the world. Mr..
Wilson reiterated his view at the first
conference, he has had with the Wash
ing correspondents since the Mexican
situation became acute. Questions up
on that subject and of the Niagara
Falls conference we're barred. In re-
ply to inquiries concerning the bust
ness situation as discussed in his
statement last week to representa-
tives of the Illinois manufacturers as
sociation and Other organizations, the
president said it vas his impression
any unsatisfactory condition centered
largely about the galway officers and
was reflected in IL steel industry and
in the other indrttries closely allied
which depend esp eeially upon railway
development for p osperlty. The pres
ident referred to statement by
Chairman Gary of The United States
Steel corporation, lat the general out
look in the steel siiiess was good
The president llases prosperity
'wsuid come wfalsf ii il nlani.o :
facture believed it was coming. He
does not believe the tariff has any
thing to do with the depression.
Discussing the Clayton trust bill, the
president said he did not understand
the act was designed to grant to labor
any privileges they do
not enjoy. 1t is purpose of the act, as
he understands it, to define the rights
of labor organizations more clearly
and remove any doubt of their rights
which have been created by court de-
cisions 1t is not the understanding of
the president that labor organizations
are to be given any privileges denied
to other organizations. 4

PASTOR, CRITICIZED BY

Cleveland, O., June 1.-Samuel
Gompers, president OF the American
Federation of Labor, in Cleveland to
aid the school teachers who are striv-
ing to form labor union, in opposi-
ton to the wishes of the board of
education, today attacked the Rev. W.
w. Bustard, for his sermon preached
Sunday evening in defense of the atti-
tude of John D. Rockefeller in Colo
rado mine strike. Bustard is pastor of
the Euclid avenue Baptist church of
which Rockefeller is a member and
Sunday shcool superintendent. Bus
tard declared in his sermon that COM
plete unonization of the miners was
the cause of the upheaval and that
less than a third of the miners be-
longed to a union.
His whole sermon showed mental
bias" Gompers said. REV. DR.. Bus
tard said. And then what did the min
ers do2 They shot the guards and the
guards shot them Why didn't he
say the guards shot the miners first7
He says the miners brought with them
to this country all the pent-up hatred
and ignorance of foreign countries II
that is true, SO is it all the more true
that the mine companies, their agents,
and others have introduced this immi.
grafton to fill the places of American
miners. The fact that Dr.. Bustard ad-
mits that wages are too low and
working conditions beastly' is the in
dictment against the companies beast
liness and tyranny, and refutation Of
the attempted apology, and a white
wash
The ministerial associations are no
more nor less than union Of profes-
sional theologians."

Washington, June 1.--After confer

! fight to pass the Panama tolls exemp
ton repeal bill, Senator Simmons pre-
dicted that the measure would get the
votes of So senators, a safe majority
Senator Simmons declared his lineup
did not include any senator considered
doubtful.
So far no attempt has been made
to sound out sentiment on various
amendments, or to discover if any
arbitration resolution can pass.
Several senators, it was said, who
favor arbitration will not vote for
such a resolution until the repeal has
been passed.
Senator Catron, republican, of New
Mexico opposed the repeal bill. Con-
tending that the treaty was not vio-
lated he declared exemption was
sound as a subsidy measure.
With the declaranon that he CON
sidered the tolls exemption plank in
the Baltimore platform undemocratic
and morally wrong, Senator Myers.

would vote for the repeal.
Il consider tolls exemption for

added that he believed the majority
of the voters did not know it was in
the platform.
Senator O'Gorman, leading the fight
agains tthe toll exemption, announced
late today that beginning Wednesday
the bill will be kept constantly before
the senate until vote is taken. A
previous effort to reach an agree
ment for a vote at D. N. Friday fail

Senator Pittnah introduced new
amendment to empower the president
to reduce the rate of tolls on Ameri-
