Security League
To Ignore Attack
Made by Hearst
Has No Time to "Attend to
Every Dog That, Bark.,"
Says President

"The National Security League Is
fighting organization and will hit
disloyal head wherever it is possible to
do so,' said Colonel Charles E. Ly-
decker, the newly elected president Of
the league, yesterday. "lt is not going
to turn aside from important work to
attend to every dog that barks."
For the immediate present, Colonel
Lydecker said, the league would take no
action on the attack made upon it by
Hearst following the resignation of S.
Stanwood Menken from its presidency,
which in turn followed the use by
Hearst Of statement to try and show
that he and his publications are loyal
and as such had the Endorsement Of
the leagues head.
"Only hit bird futters," continued
Colonel Lydecker, "and Hearst, by the
passion and temper displayed in his
editorial and news attacks upon the
And, of course, he is at liberty to
squlrm as much as he pleases."
Menken Not Forced Out
:. Mr.. Menken reiterated yesterday his
declaration that he had resigned solely
because he did not wish to permit the
league to be in any way embarrassed
by Hearst's treatment of the statement
made by him of Hearst's work for uni
versal military service.
1T is perfect nonsense" he said. "to
say that was forced out Of the league
by private interests or any interests
whatever. | offered my resignation be-
cause did not want to emharass the
IN rs
suit OF Hearst's misuse of my state
ment. As matter Of fact, | am still
connected with the league, am the head
OF the local branch and a member Of
the executive committee Of the national
body My designations from these
places were not accepted and l have
decided to retain them"
Friends of Mr.. Menken and Colonel
!ydecker said yesterday that while per-
fect harmony exists between the two,
and Colonel Lydecker has stood Loyalty
by Mr.. Menken in the situation created
by the Hearst incident, that more ag-
gresslve administration might be ex-
pected under Colonel Lydecker than
obtained under Mr.. Menken.
Lydecker a Fighter
"Menken," said one member of the
executive committee of the league, "is
essentially an organizer, but lacks the
aggressiveness Of Colonel Lydecker.
Lydeckcr probably could not have built
AS fine machine as Menken has built
in the last forty-odd months, but now
that it is built he will get more power
out of it than Menken ever could
While Lydecker is aggressive he is
not of the hair trigger type. On the
contrary, he is the kind Of man who
is sure. his gun is loaded and on the
target before he lets CO."
Colonel Lydecker, who is one of the
best known men in military circles in
New York, comes from old Knicker-
booker fighting stock. He was in the
7th Regiment for thirty eight years.
He worked for many years to bring
the National Guard up to high stand
ard, is an ex-president Of the National
Guard Association and is an authority
on militia matters. He was one of the
founders Of the National Security
League and has been most aggressive
in that organizations fight on the use
of the German language.

nette Rankin. the woman legislator
from Montana, declined the Hearst in
vitation and will address a Red Cross
rally and Fourth of July celebration
in Muncie. Ind Representative Allen
T. Treadway, of Massachusetts,, like
wise declined in order to lend his voice
to expressions Of Americanism in de-
livering patriotic speech at Pitts
field, Mass.
Representative H. M. Turner, a Re-
publican member from Iowa, also felt
that the spirit of the day could best
be expressed by him in a patriotic
address at the celebration at the his

mary because of his negative votes on
war measures, which were vigorously

has frequently expressed himself as
not in sympathy with the war policy OF Of
Hearst's publications. Representative

Representative Dowell, of Iowa, de-
cline6 also, so they may give their time
to preparation for trip abroad in the

of the Committee on Elections, was one

Local Union COS to Raise
Issue in Executive
Board
Will Ask Aid of
Other Locals
Delegate Withdrawn From
c. F. u. Not To Be Re-
turned, Says Leader

Having withdrawn their delegate
from the Central Federated Union be-
cause OF that body's Endorsement of
William Randolph Hearst and his pub
lications, leading members of Local
Union COS, United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, were planning
yesterday to carry the fight into other
locals and to the executive board of
the Brotherhood in indianapolis.
Meantime members of Eearst's fly
ing squadron of labor men were plan
nIng to prevent other Unions from fol-
lowing the example of COS and, if pos
sble, to induce that body to recon-
slider its action and return its dele
gate to the Central Federated Union.
AS to the latter contingency, William
Mcmillan, president of sos, said yes
its accomplishment.
Says Fight Has Just Begun
"rhe fight" said he, "has only just
begun. We have 1,700 members in our
union. and we have 100000 invested
IN Liberty bonds and war savings
stamps. Many of our men are in the
service. We do not propose to stand
IDLY by and let the patriotic efforts
of our members be nullifed.
Eve have no use for Hearst or his
papers and we shall make every legiti-
mate effort to persuade other unions
affiliated with the Federation to follow
our example. When we withdrew from
the Federation it was by unanimous
vote. We simply would not stand for
any organization with which we were
identified being used for Hearst propa-
ganda.

national president of the brotherhood
Veteran members of the labor move
ments were speculating yesterday on
the effect of the carpenters action
upon the Central Federated Union. In
that body are many delegates repre-
senting organizations that are not
over friendly to Hearst. and others
who have opposed Hearst ever since he
entered politics.
Many Socialists In Line
With this conservative element are
lined up the extreme radicals Of the
Socialist unions, who are opposed to
indorsing Hearst while their ppblica-
tions are similarly favored. ~
There have been clashes between
these factions, but they have been
checked before the fighting became Sc
rious. Now, some veterans of the
movement think, the feeling that has
been accommodating all these years, ac-
centuated by renewed efforts of Hearst
to use the labor movement for his own
purposes, will lead to farreaching eff
fects.
