Finds American Workers
Not Bolshevists But
I Fair and Square Men

Chicago, Nov. 12.-After seven
months of work as laborer in fac
tories, railroad yards and other in
dustrial works, William Williams
director of personnel in large steel
company in Cleveland, found that
American workers are not boil
shevists; as body they are fair and
square and want to do the right
thing" He gave his conclusions at a
meeting of the Chicago Association
of Commerce.
He said he went out to learn why
workrnen were "sore on their en-
p.oyers" and what was ION the work
ers' minds" He said he found that
the employees were troubled about
the high cost of living and believed
that profteers were taking advan-
tage Of them; that they worried con,
stantlv- lest they lose their jobs, and
that they were colossally ignorant
of the purposes of the management
of big companies, resulting in dis
trust, andthat shown lack OF con-
fdence, the workers were suspicious
of their employers.
He declared the workman must
be given to understand that he, is
doing a mans part in the world
work and was entitled to respect
and that it must be made possible
for him to support his family edu,
cate his children and enjoy some OF
the pood things of life.

Close Open Door to
European Agitators,
Is Advice Of Hoover

Buffalo, N. Y, Nov, 1.-THE
American people are growing impa-
tent with foreign agitators, and I'M
less their attitude changes, the door
that has always been open to Europe
may be shut, Herbert Hoover de-
clared in address at the convention
OF Americans Of Polish ancestry.
Many foolish ideas are being Cir
culated among the foreign-born pop
ulation of the United States" Mr..
Hoover said. Many of these
foreign-born are interesting them
selves in the destruction of our pri-
mary institutions and defiance of our
laws. The American people are fast
losing patience with this attitude.
1t may develop out of this that the
open door toward Europe will be,
in large measure, closed. But,
worse than this, there may develop
out of it a prejudice against every
speaker of a foreign language in the
United States. 1t creates prejudice
against extending aid to those coun-
tries from which our foreign-born
populations spring"
Any needed reforms in the United
States, he asserted, would "be car
ried out by, those whose parents
have grown up amid our institutions,
and those who have become in senti-
ment and spirit part of our peo-
o1e"

Of EsCh Railroad Measure

Washington, Nov. 12.-Emphatic
disapproval Of the Esch railroad
reorganization bill, now before the
house, was expressed by the chief
executives of the Is principal rail
road employees organizations in a
statement which they declared that
so far as the labor provisions OF
the bill are concerned, they are
more vicious, because more subtle,
than the labor provisions of the
Cumnnins bill"
The railway workers officials in
their statement accused those who
framed the Esch measure as being
actuated with a desire, to "shackle
labor" Request was made that the
railways be held under federal con-
troll for an additional period of two
years, the union chiefs declaring
that labor is willing to accept the
sober judgement of the American
voters as expressed at a general
election"

TAKE ACTION TO
CHOKE DOWN ON
TREATY DEBATE
Two Petitions to Invoke Sen
ate's CIoture Rule Pre-
pared for Submission
BY Legislators.

Washington, Nov. lz,-Summary
action to choke down debate on the
peace treaty was decided on by the
treaty's friends in the senate today
to meet developments regarded by
many senator's as the beginning of a
fllibuster against ratification.
Two petitions to invoke the SEN
ate's cloture rule which never here
tofore has been used were prepared
for submission tomorrow should il
become apparent that dilatory tactics
have beer adopted by the irrecon-
cilable group opposed to the treaty;
The first proposal was drawn by the
democrats and the other was being
formulated by the mild" reservation
group OF republicans.
Under the rule, which could be
made effective beginning Saturday
by two-thirds vote, no senator
could speak more than one hour in
all until vote on ratification had
been reached. No specific time could
be set under the provision for such a
vote, but the leaders predicted that
it would force final action, if resorted
to, early next week.
To Hold Night Sessions.
To further hasten the treaty, it
was agreed tentatively to hold night
sessions beginning tomorrow and
continuing until there had been a
ratification vote.
The movement for cloture was
started after Senator Reed, demo-
crat, Missouri, had launched into
another long speech attacking the
treaty, and Senators La Toilette,
Wisconsin, and France, Maryland,
republicans, had indicated they were
ready to continue the fight as soon
as the Missouri senator concluded.
Senator Reed occupied all of today's
session and intimated that he would
continue for several hours tomorrow.
Suspected Filibuster On.
Suspecting that the long-antici-
pated iilibuster was on, Senator
Hitchcock, Nebraska, the acting
democratic leader, and Senator I'm
derwood. democrat, Alabama, circu-
lated on the democratic side a petit
ton for cloture. 1t soon, had more
than twice 16 signatures needed.
The republicans acted more slow
ly, the mild reservation group being
fearful of alternating the irreconcil-
ables on whose votes they are count
ing for safe majority to put over
the reservation program. Later SEN
ator Hale of Maine, a mild reserva-
ton republican, passed AROUND a pc
tition and got the requisite number
Of signers.
Although protesting to be anxious,
for the debate to end and predicting
that the necessary two-thirds could
be mustered for cloture, Republican
Leader Lodge said he desired to take
no part in the move. A.....
