A. F. OF |. is TO COMBAT
PR0-GERMAN PROPAGANDA
Volunteer Workers to Conduct Cam
paign of Education Among
Workers.

NEW YORK, July 2s.-Labor leaders
at conference here today, presided
over by Samuel Gompers, adopted plans
for publicity campaign to combat the
pro-German element seeking foothoId
in organized labor. Committees of vol
unteer workers, 1t was announced. will
go to every labor center in the country
ito educate the true American laborer
in the fallacies Of pro-Germanism and
the truths of pure Americanism." The
conference also was ATTENDED by sew
eral members of the socialist party and
editors of Jewish periodicals.
Sufficient funds already are available
TO start the campaign, the announce
ment said, and a committee, consisting
OF David J. Berry Of Pittsburgh, Ernest
and W. L. Small of Newark, was named
to organize the publicity work
Others at the conference were Frank
Morrlson,' secretary of the American
Federation of Labor; Hugh c. Frayne.
q federation organizer; James p Hol-
land. president of the New York State
Federation of Labor, and Mr.. and Mrs J !.
G. Phelps Stokes.
The German propagandists have not
made any great inroads on the loyalty
OF American laborers," said a statement
issued after the meeting, but they have
loud voices and their work is steady
and deceitful. Open and above-board
education is to be employed to defeaf
dists."
All the speakers pledged LOYALTY to
the government in the conduct of the
war. Jewish editors praised the Ameri-
canism Of New York's East Side.

Censor Attempts to Hold Up
NeUs of Arrival of Troops
Associated Press Refuses to xiii" the Dispatch
Which Had Been Passed Already BY
Officials in Europe

and press associations relating 10
| American troops abroad. and on July 4
and July dispatches from France al

York were diverted to the War Depart
ment without notice. and later dellV-

on one occasion. a request for deletlon,
which was complied with.
On July Secretary Baker. in New
York said to the Associated Press:
THE present arrangement is only tenn
porary one and will be maintained only
so long as is necessary to perfect smooth
working plan to handle this matter with
out imperiling the lives of American citi-

On July 5. in an official statement, Sec
rotary Baker announced:

Then followed an outline of military in
formation which must not be disclosed.
Yesterdays dispatch in no way conflicts
with that order
The Associated Press had no further
communication from the government on
the subject until yesterday.
1t was generally supposed in Washing
ton, and the belief has been shared by
many officials. including the army censor;
and presumably the Secretary of War.
that an arrangement had been perfected
with the censors abroad. Yesterdays
events are the first indication that such
is not the case.
The Washington bureau did not know
and does not now know whether the troops
referred to landed in England or France.
The Associated Press always has stood
ready to cooperate with the government.

BY the Associated Press.
At $40 o'clock yesterday morning.
1--WE hours after its receipt, the Asso-
ciated Press received from the commit
tee on public Information a request to
kill the dispatch from a European port
announcing the safe arrival of another
contingent of American troops.
The Associated Press saw no reason
for killing the dispatch inasmuch as 1t
disclosed no military information of a
scription Of the troops. and further
more, Because the dispatch had been
passed through the official censorship
in Europe.
The chief censor of the War Depart
ment told a representative of the As
ISOLATED Press he was surprised that
the dispatch had been passed by the
censor abroad, because he supposed an
understanding had been reached with
the allied governments as to what
character of news respecting American
military forces was to be transmitted
freely to the United States.
The Associated Press, too. has been
given to understand that such an ar
rangement had been made.
Furthermore, the Associated Press has
before 1t no request from any RESPONSE
character. passed by the censor. to
EFcials in Washington before being
distributed to it's members.
On the other hand. the Secretary of
War July in a statement to editors
permitted press cables from France to
go directly 10 addresses without refer
snce to Washington with the stipula-
tion that certain classes of information
must not be contained in them. No such
prohibited information is contained in
the dispatch yesterday.
Since July no request has been made
of the Associated Press to withhold or
submit dispatches from abroad prior to
publication.
On July 3 the Secretary Of War by
official order arbitrarily took possession
of all cable dispatches to newspapers

START EARTHEST SOUTH
MEAT FREEZING PLANT
Factory at Punta Arenas That Will
Permit the Killing of 5000
Sheep a Day.
Especial Correspondence of The Star
and New York Worldly


and New York Worldly
PUNTA ARENAS, July 15.-There has
Just been inaugurated here a meat
freezing plant that holds the distinc-
tion of being the farthest south and the
farthest from the centers of industry
of any in the world.
Punta Arenas is 1,400 miles south of
Buenos Aires, the center of the meat
packing industry of South America,
and a great distance south of the
southern extremity of Australia, where
meat is also packed for export. The
opening of the plant Is an indication of
the growing Importance of the straits
regions as meat producing country.
The new packing house really is an
addition to the already existing meat
canning, extract and soap works, for
merly owned by Jean Hoeneisen, but
the entire establishment is now owned
and operated by the "Sociedad Frigori-
hca Punta Arenas, Straits of Magellan"
The factory is mile and a half from
the port Of Punta Arenas, and has been
space that will permit the killing of
5000 sheep a day. The freezing rooms
will accommodate 1000 sheep, which
can then be put in the cold storage
rooms. having a capacity for 1000 tons
of frozen mutton.
1t is expected that this plant will
soon be the leading sheep freezing es-
Establishment in South America, as 1t is
situated In the sheep raising regions,
and can. therefore, obtain its supplies
easier than the plants at Buenos Aires,
which have to bring the sheep to that
city by boat.
