Surprising Details to Be Presented at
Meeting Of Local Association
Tomorrow Night.

With today the 1916 cleanup pa,nt-up
campaign in Washington entered its
third week. and from reports that have
come to the clean-up-paint-up COM
mittee of the Master House Painters
and Decorators Association, A. H.
McGhan. chairman, the municipal
health authorities, The Star and others
interested in the work. results already
attained have exceeded by far those Of
any previous campaign ever held in the
District OF Columbia.
Cleanup work in the District" said
Mr.. McGhan today, has been more
general and moro thorough than has
been the case in any clean-up-paint-u up
campaign ever held before in the Ma
tional Capital. Interest in the 1916
campaign has exceeded by far that
manifested in the campaigns Of former
years. as is testified by the scores and
hundreds Of reports, inquiries, ETC.,
coming to my office.
Last year 1t was not necessary to
employ extra clerks to take care Of
inquiries and to talk to callers This
spring. however. we have had to keep
several extra clerks at work from the
opening of the campaign.
Reports of clean-up-paint-up work
have come to the office by the dozen
from every section of the city. We
could have disposed of thousands more
clean-up-paint-u buttons if we had
had them. Merchants and others have
made requests for the buttons, and for
the muslin signs. provided for display
on wagons. autos and other delivery
vehicles. All such requests were turned
down simply because we had no more
buttons or signs.
General Interest in Campaign.
All this indicates to some degree
the general interest in the campaign;
while the reports Of cleanup work. and
the requests that our committee call
the attention of the District officials to
localities needing a thorough cleanup
shows that people are alive to the bene-
Ats to health and to property values of
properly conducted campaign of the
kind that is being waged here this
spring. Everybody is satisfied with the
work that has been done. and hundreds
of persons are enlisted in the army of
volunteers, campaigners and scouts and
are keeping us posted on places where
conditions need improving.

morrow evening the reports that will

PRESIDENTIAL TICKET
Of SOCIAL LABOR PARTY
Arthur E. Reimer at Head. Caleb
Harrison in Second
Place.

NEW YORK. May 1.-Arthur E. Rel
mer of Boston, Mass, was nominated
for President Of the United States and
Caleb Harrison of Chicago, ILL.,. was
nominated for Vice President by the
socialist labor party, in convention here
last night. Both nominations were
unanimous.
A resolution was passed urging en-
ployes to organize industrially ION the
principles of the workers of the Inter
national Industrial Union and do all in
unlonism as exemplified by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor" which was
characterized as "a mere watch-your-
iob-and- boost-your-pay organization
Platform Adopted.
A platform was adopted asserting
that the present system of economic
inequality is destructive to the life,
liberty and happiness of the working
classes. and declaring that the means of
production must be owned. operated
and controlled by the people IN COM
mon" The platform declarations were,
in part. as follows:
I'VE hold that the existing contradic-
ton between social production and cap
italist appropriation-the latter result
ing from the private ownership of the
natural and social opportunities-di-
vides the people into two classes the
capitalist class and the working class,
throws society into commissions of the
class struggle and perverts government
in the interests of the capitalist class
Labor Robbed Of Wealth.
Thus labor is robbed Of the wealth
it alone produces. is denied the means
of self-employment and, by compul-
sorry idleness in wage slavery. is even
deprived of the necessaries of life.
I'm place of such a system, the So
cialist labor party aims to substitute
a system of social ownership of the
means of production, industrially ad-
ministered by the working class-the
workers to assume control and direc-
ton as well as operation of their in
dustriaI affairs.
1--WE, therefore, call upon the wage
workers to organize themselves into a
revolutionary political organization
under the banner of the socialist labor
party. and to organize themselves like
wise upon the Industrial field into
revolutionary Industrial union in keep
ing with their political aims"

Institutions Should Be Under
Charities Board, w. X. Stewart
Tells Whitman's Commission.

The mentally defective population OF
the State of New York is 2E0,0O0 Rob
ert W. Hebberd, secretary OF the State
Board Of Charities, which IS under IN
vestigation, declared yesterday before
Commissioner Charles II. Strong at
hearing at the Bar Association that he
placed the estimate Of feeble minded
in this state at that number.
"No one on earth could take census
Of the feeble minded persons IN New
York." he said. 1T would take ten
wears to investigate them. We have
looked into 10000 low grade cases. Or
these. c. 900 are in institutions. 1000 in
state institutions and 1000 are in city
institutions and almshouses. The other
5000 are at large. They ought to be re-
ceiving treatment, but all institutions
for the feeble minded are full and have
waiting lists"
Replying to Commissioner Strongs
questions, Mr.. lIebberd said other in
stitutions were contemplated, but plans
had not reached a point of development
sufficient to make application TO the
Legislature FOR appropriations.
DR.. $. L. Dugan. who was appointed
20 state commission, OF which Mr..
Hebberd was chairman, TO investigate
the feeble minded, testified at n previ-
Gus hearing before Commissioner
Strong that he resigned from the COM
mission because his suggestions were
not carried out and were blocked by the
chairman.
THAT is not true" declared the sec
retary of the State Board OF Charities
Yesterday He added that DR.. Dugan
had put in bill for $50 covering his
travelling expenses between Maine and
New York. and that the bill was re-
jected because IL was contrary 10 the
State Controllers rules to allow car
FIRE from summer resorts.
The witness said he believed il would
take five years before any reforms re-
suited from the findings Of his com
mission.
"The state is spending so much
money on the barge canal and alleged
good roads that It has very little money
left for enlarging the institutions for
the feeble minded" he added.
William r. Stewart. president Of the
State Board Of Charities. told Governor
Whitman's commissioner that prisons
will never be really reformed while
they arc under superintendents who are
politicians. Prisons would never be run
properly, even with the help Of a
Thomas Mott Osborne. he declared,
until they were put under the control
Of a body similar TO the State Board OF
Charities.
In closing his testimony Mr.. Stewart
said that, in his opinion. the state
Board of Charities should not be shorn
of its powers. but should be left as it
was. lie would have returned to It, he
said. the power Of inspection of all
charitable institutions, regardless Of
whether they existed by public expense,
part private or entirely private means.

River front merchants Of Hoboken

tic steamship companies yesterday IN
opposing the immigration Departments
order compelling incoming alien sec
ond- class passengers to be examined on
Ellis Island, instead OF on the ships
that bring them. They presented their
complaints at hearing on Ellis Island
before a special committee appointed
by Secretary Of Labor Wilson.
The present difference between maxi
mum steorage rates and minimum sec
ond- class fares is only about Sl2. For
this sum variou, undesirables can pur-
chase immunity from rigid inspection
at Ellis Island by travelling second
class and meeting the examination IN
practice on shipboard.
Steamship men, through Herman
Winter. Of the Cunard Line, pointed
out that after the war Ellis Island
would probably not be able 70 accom-
modate the combined influx OF second
