LABOR DEMANDS UPSET
OLD PARTIES IN HOUSE
Progressives See Chance to Make Po-
litical Capital Out Of Anti
Trust Bills.

Progressives in Congress see a chance
for political capital in the demand by
labor that the antitrust bills shall con-
tain a specific paragraph exempting labor
unions from the operation of the Sherman
antitrust act, and a delegation headed
by Representative Murdoch of Kansas,
leader Of the progressives In the House.
intends to visit Col. Roosevelt at Oyster
Bay within few days to consult him
on the situation. There is no doubt
about the republican and democratic
parties in the House being upset over the
situation. and as time goes by the labor
representatives feel that their case is
growing stronger.
The friends of the President in the
House understand that they must stick
to the Clayton bill as it is now written.
and they claim the President will veto
any bill which is sent to the White
House with the drastic exemption clause
relating to labor unions and the anti
trust acts.
AS the matter now stands. an amend
ment will be offered, possibly by Repre-
sentative Lewis of Maryland, to change
the Clayton bill SO 1t will contain the
much-longed-for exemption clause, but
every effort has been made to smother
a record vote on the subject. If this
Is tackled on in committee Of the whole
the vote will be taken by tellers. Mem
bers of the House have received letters
from a socialist organ saying that men
will be posted in the galleries to check
of the members.

Carnegie Foundation Charges.

Mr.. Vouros. the Greek charge here has
issued a statement in refutation of the
reported findings of the Carnegie Founda-
ton commission rejecting on the conduc,
of the Grecian military forces in the
Balkan wars last year.
He says there is no truth in the charges
that the Greek armies were guilty Of un-

by the Greek legation the contention is
made that the Carnegie commission II

claimed there had been atrocities fol
which the Greeks were responsible.

Why" he said, looking over his glasses

have not demanded it, The Chamber of
