MAURER REVISES TALK.
Says He Merely Quoted q Captain
In COnsta buIary.

James II. Maurer, president Of the
Pennsylvania Federation Of Labor. said
last night that what he was quoted as
saying az the Labor Forum meeting
sunday night .idn', express his scpti-
ments at all. He explained that he
only used the phrase Ito hell with the
stars and stripes" In telling an anec-
do,e in quoting a captain Of the Penn
sylvania constabuiary.
Maurer issued a typewriter statement
to the newspapers which embodied. he
nid. his speech Of Sunday evening de-
iivcred at a meeting of the Labor Forum
In Washington Irving High School.
According tn Maurer's version Of the
trend Of his speech. he did not send out
an exact report. but only what he and
friends present remember Of what he
said-he was telling of III" lack OF pa
triotism Of the State constabulary. He
told Of a workman whose services az a
soldier in III. Philippines had caused
Congress to give him a gold medal. Later
this man worked In the mines In Penn
s~ylvania. lie died during Il strike. The
Spanish War Veterans and the Patriotic
Sons OF America and the Mine Workers
Union united In paying him burial
honors. Representatives from each or
ganization marched in the funeral pro-
cession with All American nag.
A body of mounted constabulary halted
the procession and said that the march
was against the statutes 4 permit Ia
march was displayed. Then In grea,
anger the captain ordered the marching
bodies to furl their flags and when pro-
test was made he said ITO hell with
the stars and stripes"
Al this point, according 10 Mr.,
Maurer's version OF what he said. he
said
''It Is these very people who talk 10
you about patriotism and rub the Amer
lean nag up against YOUR nose and de-
mard that you he patriots. when or the
other hand they allow the c%onstabuiary
To perform an act just like ! described
and no protest j. ever raised. DO you
know, when these prepa redness freaks
ask me where my patriotism stands In
the face Of the story that ! just told
on. I feel like Cling them to go &c
hell"
This. he says. ended his particular ref
creme TO the Stars II Stripes.

Board Of Education Was attacked upon

probably some 5000. 900 900, were being
inadeQuately used. \ great cry went up
that 1t was the boards duty TO adopt a
liberal policc.
Applications savoring of commercial
ism are promptly rejected. The COM
ln'ttee insists upon knowing the man
behind the organization making appiica-
ton. 10 see whether there exists sufYi-
cient public responsibility. IL plays no
favorites. Capital and labor are equally
fairly treated.
The Labor Forum is an Wganiza-
tion unde the direction Of Carl Beck,
who was formerly connected with
Cooper institute. Among the Forums
trustees are well known and responsible
men. II was stated to us that the or
gsn!zation was formed to represent prop
erly the labor interests of the city, and
its name implies that.
The actual permission in this case
was granted by the predecessor Of the
present committee. While the present
committee is not directly responsible for
the giving Of a permit to the Labor
Forum. nevertheless both the old and the
rev members are united in insisting tina,
all school buildings shall be used prop
~' ~ i'NA
month. Any new application will re-
ceive careful consideration and We are
determined thai in future the use 81
osouilding will ne granted TO any or
san.zai.on for every sunday night.
TO illustrate the difficulty of the
situation the committee received com
plants a few months ago that the Labor
Forum had been attacking the President
OF the United States. We Were con-

None of III viii tolerate u. ,lenuncia-

TO say the least, To permit such a de-
nunciatIon in a public schoo building
. But those who have been preaching the
extended use OF the buildings should
among themselves lay down certain
rules. the violation OF which should re-
suit in the expulsion of any guilty
members"
The committee on care OF buildings
tried several weeks ago, said Commits
sioner Ham sen. to effect a release from
it's agreement with the Labor Forum
permitting the use of Washington Irving
High School every sunday night. Mem
bcrs Of the board generally believed
however. that once the permission hat
been given II should not ne withdrawn.
