FORMER LOBBY
Chief REVEALS
WORKING PlAN

SEATTLE, May 29.-Col. Mar
tin Mulhall, for many years field
agent of the National Association
of Manufacturers, and for the
past year resident of Seattle,
today announced the completion
of a book which he promised
would create a nationwide SEN
sation by it's expose OF the iii
sidious lobby"
Mulhall was on the witness
stand for three months in the
summer of 1913, when the senate
committee undertook an investi-
cation of President Wilson's
complaint against the lobby"
At that time he broke with the
clijue in control of the associa-
ton, and detailed many hitherto
unknown chapters of national
legislation.
No Report Published.
Mulhall virtually rocked the
nation" Many congressman and
senators were kept on the anX-
ious seat while he was on the
stand.
The amazing revelations then
made, according to Mulhall, are
but a drop in the bucket COM
pared with the facts he has put
into his book.
No report has ever been made
public by the congressional COM
mittee named to investigate the
'insidious lobby"
Writes Books in Seattle.
Col. and Mrs. Mulhall came
here in the summer of 1915 and
took up their residence with old
friends, DR.. and Mrs. l.. Blake
Baldwin, 1926 Eighth avenue
west.
Mrs. Baldwin, an experienced
writer, has collaborated with Col.
Mulhall in preparing the book,
which is entitled, The Invisible
! Government.
| The facts referred to in the
book are backed up by thousands
of letters which Col. Mulhall
keeps under guard in safety de-
post vault, according to the au-
/ thors.
Going to Chicago.
Col Mulhall will leave In few
days for Chicago, where he will
attempt to get certain planks in
cluded in the national platforms
for a further investigation of the
"insidious lobby"
THE lobby is today just AS
powerful as It was them" asserts
Mulhall, land it is this year MAX
ing a supreme effort to clinch its
hold on Washington and the ma
ton.
ut has been the ambition Of
my life to show up this monster
to the people, for once its meth

a money power of over $1,000
900, embracing virtually every
great industrial interest in the
United States.
Annually $3.50, 600 or more
is collected from members of his
association by an inner organiza-
ton to be spent for political pur-
poses. Not a cent of this is ever
accounted for.
This sum reresents the canker
at the heart of Americanism 20
day.
with it legislators have been
bought and sold, elected and de-
feated. Lives and fortunes have
been wrecked. In it is bribery,
perjury, treachery and the UNI
dermining of integrity. 1t has
been used to assault the highest
pinnacles of our national insti-
tutions.
Many Signed Letters.
THE deplorable thing about
this is that the majority of manu-
facturers from whom this fund
is collected do not know how il
has been used. They, as we'll
as the people, have been deluded
and used by a mere handful OF
INSCRIPTIONS men at Washington.
In a sense The Invisible Gov
eminent is not my story at all.
The men who constitute it have
written it themselves in their own
signed letters and documents.
These letters came into my
hands as field agent of the N. A.
of NJ, and show in detail the OPP
erations of the lobby.
They show how efforts have
been made to invade the very
White House; how legislatures
and cabinets have been influenced
to the interests of the powerful
few, definitely; how many of the
peoples trusted servants have
placed their effectiveness in pawn
with that inner circle of the Ma
tional Association of Manufac-
turers.
Many of their authors are to-
day candidates and nominees for
election to high office at Wash
ington.
THE lobby buys and sells and
traffics, and 1t laughs at popular
elections. Its tentacles are ev-
erywhere.
THE lobby has it's honor list,
men who can be relied upon al
ways to do its bidding. This list
also is to be printed.
Col. Mulhall believes his book
will flush report from the COM
mittee.
With 80 years political expert
ence as equipment and the cour.
age of his Irish blood, Col. Null
hall believes he has presented an
expose that will set the nation
thinking seriously.
II have done it only in the in
terests of clean government" he
concluded.

IOCCUPY
GERMAN AFRICA

The Germans first charged at
Z O'Clock last night, attempting
to regain Thursdays losses. For
an hour they struggled in vain to
penetrate the French defenses,
finally retreating into a ravine
east of Deadman's Hill.
The second assault came just
before midnight. In the CHASTITY
glare of illuminating bombs the
French and Germans battled hand
to hand on parapets and trenches
until the Teutons were hurled
back into Jorbeay woods.
Frenchmen participated in Is
aerial flights Sunday, bringing
down three Germans.

These embody his views az
formed at the end of his political,
and the beginning of his judicia
career.
In this book he says much
about the need for "clean poll
tics" but nothing about how to
make politics clean except his
mention ofth short ballot. Con-
spicuous by their absence are the
initiative, referendum and recall;
and there is no hint as to how he
feels about the Sherman anti
trust law, the land system, trade
unions, poverty and unemploy-
ment, public ownership OF natural
monopolies, judicial usurption,
and other matters Of current in
terest.

The wheels of business will stop for few
hours in memory of the brave souls who gave
up their lives on the field of battle. The Ma
ton stands with dropped head silently honor
ing it's departed.
But-not alone do we pay homage tomorrow
to those who died in defense of their country
but in keeping with the broader and newer
meaning of Memorial Day those of us who have
dear ones waiting for us in the Great Beyond
will devote part of the Day to memories of
our dead-those of us who can will lay floral
offerings on their resting place-while some
must be content to open the chest of memory
where we have treasured remembrances of
them in the lavender and rosemary of fond af-
lection. ..
Some of us will spend the day in serious re-
ospection-paying respect to our dead loved
ones-others free from bereavements of dear
ones will naturally seek livelier pleasures
It is most fitting at this time that we should
remember the terrific struggle across the wa
ter and voice at least silent prayer for it's
speedy termination.
May our hearts and thoughts turn to the
East where great man sits in silent struggle,
awed by worlds catastrophe, striving once
more to bring peace to all men.
