Urges Regulation of Rockefeller
Foundation as Far as Rep

New York, Jan. 22.-Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, does not believe any
conclusion the Rockefeller foundation
might reach on the Industrial condi-
tions would carry conviction to the
workers of the country, or greatly in
fuence the employers. In testifying
before the inquiry by the commission
on industrial relations into great
philanthropic foundations CT the
country he said "effort of the Rock

WILSON HEARS
MANY VISITORS
immigration Bill Gone Over From
Every Angle; President May
Veto It.

Washington, D. G., jan. 22.-For
over three hours today, President Will
son heard applications that he sign
the immigration bill and that he veto
it, voiced by spokesman of five hun
dred men and women, who packed
the east room of the White House.
The speakers were labor leaders,
publicists, social workers, students
and others, contending for or against
the literacy test proposed by the bill
to determine the fitness of immigrants
to become citizens.
The president thanked the men and
women, for their views, and said he
would act on the bill soon. Unless he
signs or Jetoes it by Thursday mid
night it will become law without
his signature.
The president indicated strongly he
would veto, as he does not approve OF
the literacy test.

BALD JACk" ROSE
AGAIN ON Stand
Testifies as Character Witness for
American Minister James
Sullivan.

New York, Jan. 22.-"Bald Jack "
Rose, erstwhile gambler and star wit
ness in the trial of Charles Becker,
for the murder of Herman Rosenthal,
appeared in the role of a character
witness for James Sullivan, the Am
erican minister to the Dominican Re-
public, whose worth to hold Office is
under investigation.
Rose credited Sullivan for inducing
him to confess all knowledge of the
Rosenthal murder, and suggested the
present attack" upon the minister
might be an aftermath of his refusal
to swerve from duty at that time,
because of his activity in obtaining
the confession he had been "besieged
with threats and promises.

With Elizabeth Preston Anderson
leading the cohorts, faithful band
Of suffragists descended last evening
upon the senate committee on suff-
rage and urged favorable report on
the Bronson concurrent resolution
providing for a submission Of the is
sue at the next general election.
The arguments advanced were old
ones long familiar to the voters OF
this state and repudiated by more
than 5000 at the polls last November.
Poole and Mrs. Anderson.
Thomas Poole and Mrs. Anderson
cross questioned each other fol, three
quarters of an hour. During that time
both sides of the question were placed
in vigorous manner before the mem
bers of the committee of which Sen
ator Trageton is chairman. Senator
Hughes of. Burleigh county is also a
member. ..,
The women urged that the vote
taken at the polls in November did
not represent the decision of ma
jority because,many blank votes were
cast. This, however, is not borne
out by the facts. The total vote on
governorship was S9,906 while the
total expression on suffrage was 49,
557. In other words more voters cast
ballots on this issue than for govern
or, showing that the people were alive
to the principles involved and that
the vote at the November elections
reflected the desire of the majority on
this ISSUE
Figures Were Decisive.
It was clearly shown that the ad-
vocates of suffrage have no right to

ask that the question be submitted
again in the face of these figures.
Seldom in the history of the state, it
was shown, has there been such a rep
resentative vote on any issue.
Mrs. Anderson was followed by Mrs
Darrow of Fargo, who has been in the
city several days lobbying for the
measure. In Cass county the home OF
Mrs. Darrow, 2,611 voted no and 2,0o1
yes. Stutsman county, the home OF
Mrs. Anderson, registered 1,615 votes
against to only S63 for.
That these votes reflect the senti-
ment somewhat of the women OF the
state on the issue was pointed out. IN
answer to the argument that ma
jority Of the women do not want the
ballot, Mrs. Fanny Quain of Bismarck
asked that if a certain number OF
women were in a room and because
all of them or majority did not
want water to drink, should the 9TH
ers be denied the privilege?
Mrs Jerry Stevens of Grand forks,
another advocate of equal suffrage,
was present and urged, a favorable
report. The room was filled with
sympathizers, most Of them members
of the local suffrage association.
The association opposed to suffrage
was not represented and in order to
hear both sides Of the controversy,
the members of the committee
thought it best to lay the matter over
before reporting the resolution cut.
