POLICE ARREST
PLANT PICKET|S
May Test constitutionality
Of Anti-Picketing Law
in Portland.

Portland, Ore, Sept. 28.-Refusal
to recognize the mayors order against
picketing of shipbuilding plants was
the outstanding feature of strike de-
velopments today. Pickets in small
and large groups made themselves
noticed internationally throughout the
day and altogether II arrests were
made.
The attitude Of the strikers, openly
expressed, was that the a~nti-picketing
law passed by the vote Of the people
last July wa unconstitutional and
they would not abide by 1t. The first
trials Of alleged %violators of the law
will be held tomorrow in police court.
If the outcome is adverse to the
Ipickets, union officials say. a test case
will be carried to the supreme court
in an effort to ~invaIidate the law.
Yesterdays efforts to esume oper-
atoms at various shipbuilding plants
were not perceptibly successful. Last
night Mayor Baker issued an appeal
to both employers and strikers to
meet in conference and endeavor to
reconcile their differences.

DENOUNCES
TOWNLEY AND
LA TOILETTE
John Barrett says Pair are
Helping German Propagan-
da in Latin America.

minneapolis, Sept. 28.-John Bar
rett, director general of the Pan
American union, the international Of
fetal organization of the American
republics. in an address before the
students of the Stanley Hall school in
Minneapolis. discussed the extraordi-
nary strength and methods of German
propaganda against the United States.
only those familiar with the ac-
tual facts can appreciate the extraor-
binary, all encompassing Inc far
reaching character of the anti-United
States German propaganda among our
sister American republics" he said.
1T Is bad enough here at home. but
it has practically run wild until re-
Gently checked throughout all Latin
America, from Mexico on the north to
Argentina on the south.
LaFollette and TownIey Aid.
"A remarkable feature Of this pro-
paganda has been the sending to the
newspapers and all other agencies of
publicity in Central and South Ameri-
ca of the speeches Of men like Sena-
tor LaFollette and Mr.. Townley. Their
u~tterances have been used as evil
dence that a large element Of Ameri-
cans in the central west and among
the farmers are opposed to the gov
eminent of the United States and
sympathetic with Germany in this
great struggle.
"a special effort has been made to
influence the farming class of other
American republics by exaggerating
the influence of these men and their
works. I do not mean to cast any
reflection on the character of either
of them or Of others like them, but I
simply state a fact hat ought to be
known. and which these men them
selves ought to realize.
Germany Had Hopes.
Tt IL no exaggeration that the real
heart and soul Of the German propa-
ganda through the twenty Latin-Am-
erican republics has been that element
of %so-called paci1sts and that portion
of their propaganda which is now be-
ing 50 much watched and feared in
this country. In other words. every
thing that this group of men in the
United States do or say critical OF the
United States government and oppos-
ed to the war has been repeated in
Latin-America. or at least sent there
in the hope of preventing Latin-Am-
erica from supporting the United
States and the allies in this war.
"a notable example of this inf1ence
is the speeches recently madezby Sen
ator LaFollette. Townley and others;
although they themselves NAV per-
sonally have had nothing to do with
the sending of these u~tterances to
South America"
