KFFN ROCKWELL
DIES in AIR FIGHT
American Filler Killed in
Battle on AlSaCe
Front.
by Cable 20 Tie Tribune ]


Paris, Sept. 23.-Kifiin Rockwell, Of
Atlanta. Ga, who has brought down
four German aeroplanes since he joined
the American Squadron of the French
army last May, was killed this morning
in a duel with a German Taube. Rock
we'll rose from the trenches on the Al
SAGE front at the challenging whine
of the Germans plane, and his op-
ponent's wings were riddled by his bull
lets.
With his magazine exhausted Rock
well swooped to ercircle his adver-
sary and was caught on the flank by
a furious fire from the Germans ma
chine gun. A bullet pierced his brain
and he hurtled to earth.
1t was the death he had hoped for.
Last June, when the German aero
squadrons made a determined attack
on Barbecue, apparently with the
hope of annihilating the American iii
ers' camp, Rockwell wrote to his friends
in Paris:
81 thought sure I'd be killed on the
ground, and felt pretty sick-as when
| get mine | want to be in the air"
The body of the American aviator
was taken to military hospital and
will be buried with full honors on Mon
day. His brother Paul. who is here, has
been notified and will go to Alsace to-
morrow, accompanied by William Thaw,
who is here on furlough.
Rockwells daring in the air had won
him many honors in the short period Of
his enlistment. He was about 20 be
promoted TO a lieutenancy, had received
the war cross and military medal, and
had twice been mentioned in official
orders.
Rockwell was wounded in the face
early in his career as pilot Of French
war planes, but returned to the front
as soon as his injury had healed.
Winsted Salem, y. c., Sept. 23.-
News Of the death Of Kif'in Yates
Rockwell was announced in cable
gram from Paris, received here late
to-day by his mother, Mrs. l.. A. Rock
well.
Mrs. Rockwell had received letter
from her son only few hours before
the news of his death reached her. lie
stated he had had a leave OF absence OF
eight days, and had spent the time IN
Paris with his brother, Paul Rockwell
On the day he mailed the letter he was
leaving for the front, and said he had
been transferred from Verdun to a
more active sector.

Work Suspension Barred
BY Contracts of Unions
Labor Organizations Would Lose Gain Made in Years by
Quitting, Employers Say-Carment Manufacturers
Call Threat a Gigantic Bluff.

Contracts which exist between the
larger unions and the employers Will
be the most potent factor in wardlng
off a city-wide suspension Of work, eN-
ecutives of employers associations be-
lieved yesterday. The longshoremen,
who number $4,000; the building work
ers. numbering 10000; the garment
workers, numbering upward Of 100000,
and the printers are among the most
important union BODIES now bound by
contract.
These contracts, in almost every
case. will be swept away automatically
the instant a sympathetic suspension
Of work is entered upon, employers
say. They record agreements which
have been worked out only by long
and costly disputes and former strikes,
and TO nullify them would mean that
both workmen and employers would
lose much.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-09-24

nullify their agreement. | do not see
how 10000 men and women who have
just concluded fourteen-weeks' strike
can afford to plunge into another one.
Our agreement with our workmen
has nothing to say about Transports
ton. So far as we are concerned, they
can come to the factories in aeroplanes
But the employers will not, / think
may say, provide transportation facili'
ties other than what already exist.
Candidly, am of the opinion that the
whole sympathetic strike hysteria is a
gigantic bluff calculated TO force Mr..
ShoIts to arbitrate."
Building Trades in Corner.
The Building Trades Employers As
sociation of the City of New York
composed Of / 900 building contractors
has a contract with the Union Of Build
ing Trades of Greater New York, com
posed of thirty-two local unions. This
document specifically provides against
any organized Suspension Of work
A sympathetic action of no matter how
short duration, members of the en-
ployers' association declared yesterday
would be regarded as a breach Of con-
tract.
Twenty-eight thousand union long
shoremen are bound to their employert
Their agreement rcovides that in case
a dispute cannot be settled by repre-
sentatiyes Of the men and their EN-.
ployers, meeting jointly, a board OF
arbitration shall be the final court OF
appeal. There appears to be no lega
loophole in the contract through which
the excuse for a sympathetic suspen-
sion Of work might escape.
Prospects for strike among the
members of the Allied Printing Trades
Council are more remote than in any
other trade.
