Union Labor Attacks In

Buffalo, y. Y, Nov. 16.-The ad-
dress of William H. Barr, president
of the National Founders association
in which he criticised the govern
ment's policy in dealing with labor's
problems, was freely discussed by the
delegates attending the 37th annual
convention of the American Fedora
tion of Labor here today and reply
was looked for from the floor of the
convention.
The eight-hour day, Mr.. Barr de-
clared in his speech delivered in New
York, is an economic waste and a
grave menace in time OF war. He de-
nounced particularly the agreement
between the secretaries of war and
navy that any manufacturer accept-
ing certain war contracts should be
governed by union hours, wages. and
conditions at the time nominally in
existence in his locality.
Mr. Barr declared union labor was
pursuing a policy which, like the sub
marines, was attacking American in
dustries beneath the surface and added
that "our government, after only six
months of hostilitics, is sanctifying an
industrial status of disastrous social

Washington, Nov. l6.-When trials
Of the woman's party militants fol
picketing the White House came ul
in police court today, Mrs. William
Kent of Kentheld, Cal, sentenced to
a fine of SIS or Is days in the work
house, found that her husband, a
member of the tariff commission, had
paid her fine. Mrs. Kent protested
to the court, refusing to accept that
settlement of the judgment against
her and demanded that she be per-
mitted to go to the workhouse. The
court specified that the issue would
be settled within four days.
When Mrs. Harvey w. Wiley, wife
OF the pure food expert, was called
for sentence, she insisted on taking
a workhouse term, but an attorney
engaged by her husband insisted on
the court granting an appeal. The
court announced it could not do both
and advised the lawyer to get his
client to agree to some course and
report.
Woman's party headquarters an
nounced that Mrs. Wiley refused to
permit filing of a bond necessary for
an appeal and would begin a l5-day
sentence in the workhouse at once.
All the other militants recalled for
sentence were given the usual short
workhouse terms. Twenty-eight 9TH

Bees Account of Eagle Flight
Over Fort Omaha Is Good Omen

when that account in The Omaha

the omen OF victory for the United
States had presented itself" said Mrs.
Zilpha Albee, 90 years of age, and
mother of former Court Sergeant A:
N. Glover, 1906 Fowler avenue.
She then launched into an interest
ing account Of the origin of the
American eagle, whose facsimile is
upon the face of our money. This
now famous eagle was captured by
the children OF Manitowoc, Wis, my
home town. When the war broke out,
the boys decided to take the bird with
them as a mascot. And it surely
proved to be. In every battle It
scared high over the heads OF our
boys, screaming challenges as if to

say, Give it to them, boysp It dis
couraged the rebs so that they were
often heard to remark that they would
rather kill that eagle than the best
general in our army. But their guns
couldn't shoot that high, and when
the war was ended the eagle, now a
national figure, returned with what
was left of our gallant regiment, the
2lst Wisconsin volunteers The bird
was then sent to museum in Milwau-
kee, where for a number of years
he was the center of admiring throngs.
He died at a ripe old age, and ma
tional homage was paid him. Is it
any wonder then that | rejoice when
| heard of the eagles fight? 1t spells
the doom of kaiserism."

ting with happy smile on her with

Wednesday nights precautionary
measures were repeated last night, but

No alarms were sounded during the
night and no trouble was expected
from the Mexican side.
Two Americans crossed the Rio
Grande river from Ojinaga, Mex, at
2 o'clock this morning. When stopped
by a Deputy sheriff they covered him
with revolver and disappeared. They
are believed to have been the two
American deserters who served the
federal machine guns during the fight
ing for the possession of Ojinaga, and
who were reported to have been
killed.
A scouting party was sent out early
today to locate them. 1t was be-
iieved here they had been in hiding
near Ojinaga since the surrender OF
the federal forces there.

all night, but nothing was reported
from fords or trails. A Mexican res
ident of Preside reported last night
he had seen five men digging graves
on the Mexican side OF the river. pre-

battle. This burial party, the Mex
lean said, he saw find a Mexican fed
