IN NEW CABLE SUIT


Newcomb Carlton, president of the

Postmaster General Burleson director
Of all cable lines since last Friday. was
named as pdefendant with Mr.. Burle-
son yesterday in the suit of the Com
mercial Gable Company to recover pos

Through their counsel. Charles
Evans Hughes and william w. Cook,
the Commercial company and the
Commercial Pacific Company. of both

dent, filed in the Federal District
Court amended complaints in the in
junction suits recently instituted to
prevent the merger Of the cables
owned by the two companies with
those owned and leased by the West
ern Union.
The litigation is designed to recover
possession of the cables Immediately.
It is the contention Of Mr.. Mackay
that the merging Of the two competing
companies is part Of a plot to bring
about Government ownership OF all
wire communications, and incidentally
to enable the Western Union and Bell
Telephone companies to sell out to tho
Government at high price"

BOSTON, Dec. 15.-The United States
Government Is to make as careful an

Of the world as was made by Germany
before the war. SO that American in
dustries may be scientifically con-
Quoted. according to q statement made

the Department of Commerce and
Labor in discussing at q business re-
adjustment conference plans 20 ex-
pand the country's foreign trade.
THE world is full of opportunities"
said he. Brazil, Peru and Bolivia
have only been scratched. The Dutch
East Indies and that part of the world
are waiting for capital and are rich
beyond the dreams OF the imagina-
ton"
Secretary Redheld said he believed
controversies between capital ana
labor would be solved by large produc-
ton. which would make high wages
possible. He declared that the Gov
eminent had thus far not been forced
to worry" about employment for dis
charged soldiers. as they are finding
places for themselves. Although he
believed that Great Britain would be
able to finance herself with but little
outside help, he said the United States
would have to aid the other allied ma
tons for years to come to enable them
to buy in American markets.

HEARST AND HYLAN
Republican Club Objects to
Editor as Welcomer
Of Troops.
ASKS FOR OLD SYSTEM
Resolution Favors Return Of
Naming Candidates In
Party Conventions.

The Republican Club at is monthly
meeting last night adopted a resolu-
ton advocating the return to the con-
vention system Of nomination for all
party candidates for public ONCE.
The resolution was offered by Alan
ID. Kenyon, chairman Of the commit
tee on State affairs. But one member
of the club spoke against It.
The resolution recommended that
delegates to party conventions be
chosen at official primaries and that
proper safeguards be thrown about
the conventions TO prevent the pos
sible return to any of the corrupt
practices, formerly incident to the old
convention system.
The action OF the club Ia the most
radical step yet taken by the oppo-
nents Of the direct primary system.
The most advanced step in this di-
rection that had hitherto been taken
was the suggestion for the return OF
the old state convention.
Condemn Hearst Appointment.
The club also unanimously passed
resolutions condemning the appoint
ment by Mayor Hylan of William r.
Hearst as a member of the committee
TO welcome the homecoming soldiers.
Resolutions OF a similar tenor, al
though somewhat milder, were pre-
scented at a special meeting December
6. and under the rules were laid over
until last night. They were discarded
ana new set, drawn jointly by Taylor
More and John A. Dutton. were passed
as follows:
whereas Mayor Hylan has an
nounced his appointment of William
Randolph Hearst as a member OF the
reception committee to our boys re-
turning from the great war in Europe
and also as chairman of a committee
to erect a monument or suitable
memorial to the memory of those who
have given their lives and will not
return, and persists in retaining Mr.
Hearst on such committees notwith-
standing the protest on the part Of or
ganisations and prominent citizens and
large part Of the press of the city,
and
Whereas the loyalty of Mr.. Hearst
to his country is discredited by his own
utterances and by the disclosures OF
a committee of the United States SEN
ate, and his position as chairman OF
the above committee Is a disgrace to
the loyal city Of New York and an in
suit to its citizens, and particularly to
the men who have given their lives
and those who have brased death and
shed their blood in devotion to this
country: now therefore be it
RESOLVED. That the president OF this
club be authorized to appoint a COM
mittee of nine members, OF which the
president shall be ex ofiicio chairman
70 confer and take action with other
organizations in this city for the pur-
pose OF calling a general meeting OF
citizens to publicly protest against the
appointment of Mr.. Hearst and against
his appointment on any committee
which has to do with any reception to
the living or doing honor to the dead
soldiers or sailors of our country"

For the FIRST time Republican and
Democratic leaders and followers
agreed on something, and the some
thing was that the vote" for the Red
Cross must be out In full strength. So
between 10000 and $1,000 workers I'M
der the 1874 Republican and Demo-
cratic organizations began canvassing
the various election districts.
In each New York election district
there are three or four workers who will
visit every home apartment, dwelling
and a few of the smaller Office build
ings. The larger buildings are handled
by the Industrial committee Of tho roll
call. Republicans visit those enrolled
as Republicans and Democrats appeal
to Democrats.
The stage, too. has come to the fore
In this as In past patriotic campaigns.
