SUGGESTS NEW WAY FOR
UNIONS TO FIGHT EMPL OVERS
The power of workingmen, to win
strikes and enact labor laws by
threat or action of withdrawal of
bank deposits was brought before the
Socialist national committee yester-
day. A committee on monetary
credits and banking offers this sug-
gestion in its report:
IF the working class could be in
duced to cooperate in the exercise
Of their economic power, as do the
bankers, they could win any strike,
enact any legislation or achieve any
result they might desire.
1.-THE savings deposits of the United
States are the property Of the work
ing class and amount to six and one
half billions of money"
The signeTs Of the report are Karl
F. M. Sandberg, a practicing Chicago
physician, and Arthur LeSueur,
South Dakota farmer. They predict
that the time is coming when organ
lied workers will find that in crises
they can deliver fierce blows at their
enemies by having workingmen,
bank depOsitors and their sympath-
izers pull out their money from the
banks.
A Day Book reporter asked DR..
Sandberg: do you mean that you
would deliberately bring about run
on a bank, if you could?"
He replied: When a bank is
to our enemies and is actual
ly using money we have put in the
bank to fight us in a strike or at
state Legislature, a run on a bank
should be considered as a fighting
tactic. Bankers exist only by the suf-

Arcadia to be shipped to-day to Germany
on the same vessel will probably find its
way into the rifles of Huerta's army. ac-
cordng to information received yesterday
by The Tribune. 1t was in that way that
most OF the ammunition received by
Huerta got into the country.
At the local Office of the Hamburg
American Line it was stated that the
shipment of ammunition to Hamburg on
the Arcadia was not unusual The Ar
cadia is a small steamer, Of little more
than 5000 tons, and on this trip carries
no passengers. Her regular sailing port
i'm this country is Baltimore, but last
week she slipped up 10 New York, to the
BROOKLYN piers of the company. and took
on board the cartridges and other war
supplies, and returned to Baltimore, from
which port she is scheduled to sail to-day.
Who the shipper of the ammunition is
could not be learned in this city
Senior Francisco Urquidi, local consul
for the Mexican Constitutionalists said
that the ammunition was undoubtedly IN
tended for Huerta- 1t was not purchased
for General Carranza. he declared. To his
knowledge. he added. ammunition was
being sent to Germany regularly. The
latter statement was verified at the Ham
burg -American Line offices. For more
tridges in large quantities had been
shipped TO Hamburg on the company's
ships that carried no passengers.

President looks with favor on this pro-
nosed amendment" Senator Borah
asked. No Senator yentured to reply
"The adoption OF this amendment,
continued the Senator. will place the
President In the position of having ms
intellectual integrity or his moral cour-
age challenged. We are doing the
wrong thing by sidestepping on TINS
question. 1t is not domestic ques-
ton, and the whole world will regard
not what we do so much as the way we
do it,"
Senator Cummins proposed an amend
mont which would make the repeal OH
specifically provide that the Uni'eo
States did not relinquish any right II
has under the treaty 20 exempt its
cosstwise vessels from the payment OF
tolls" He called the Simmons-Norrls
amendment gold brick INTENDED 10
deceive the American people and dis-
puted the contention OF Senator Will
Jams that after the bill with the sim
mons amendment was passed the ques-
ton could be submitted TO arbitration
He declared there would not be any
thing TO arbitrate.
Senator Cummins asserted that he
wished the Senate 10 place a construc-
ton on the treaty which would have
the effect Of providing a controversy.
and then there would be grounds for
arbitration.
