Tia said the mosl remarkable feature of
the Whelp proceeding WNs that after
nine months of government eoniroi
Mr. Hufeson whs forced to eonfess
that he eould not turn the wires back
without new arrangements. Mr. Deegan
said that this condition existed not
wthstanding the fact that the private
owners had operated the wires at
profit and had not requested that they
be taken over.
"Thcn, again" continued Mr.. Dee
gan, "Mr. Burleson's awards to the
Bell Telephone and the Western Union
were SO much in excess of their real
earnings that apparently he is going to
ask Congress to make up the deficiency
to these companies. On the other hand,
he awarded the Postal Telegraph Cable
Company $1,690,000 while it was earn
ing approximately S4,2O0,O0O.
Mr. Burleson has the power under
the Presidents proclamation to return
any or all Of the lines to their private
owners at any time. We think, there
fore, that he should turn over our lines
to us at once, and we will not ask q
dollar from the government. We mere
ly ask to be allowed to keep what we
earn. That is a fair proposition.
Evidently Mr.. Burleson's proposed
legislation is to be for the benefit of
the Bell Telephone and Western Union
Telegraph companies, just the same as
every one of his acts in connection with
the wires since he took control of them
has been for the advantage Of these
two companies. The question is: Are
the American people going to allow to
continue in office man who has made
such colossal mess of the entire wire
situation?
"If Mr.. Burleson wishes to continue
control over the Bell and Western
Union systems to help them financially.
why doesn't he turn back the Postal
lines? We would be glad to compete
with any companies operated by Mr..
Burleson, and we have 10 doubt of the
result of such competition"
Mr. Deegan stated that there would
be important developments in the wire
situation within the next week. He de-
clined, however, to intimate what mi ght
be expected

Governor of Tennessee
Says State viii Back
Wilson for Third Term

Governor A. II. Roberts. Democrat,
of Tennessee, elected last fall by a
plurality of about 10000, says that f
the national issue next year is evil
sonism" the Democrats of Tennessee
VIII be for the President for third
term, despite tradition, as Tennessee
Democrats believe that the President
has made a fine record.
"All our people-of course am
speaking for the Democrats-are for
the league of nations" said the Gov
ernor, "and for the covenant as framed
by the peace conference Wilson mas a
great grip on the affections of our
people, and if the Republicans make
the issue wisconsin next year | am
inclined to believe that the Democrats
will stand by the President, even if it
results in his denomination.
Tennessee industrially is in good
shape, our people, generally speaking,
are employed at good wages, and every
thing looks bright. We have had pro
hibition since 1915, and the people
soon got used to it, so that there was
no economic shock. The law, generally
speaking, is we'll enforced. Prohibition
no longer is political issue in Ten
nessee. 1t split the Democratic party
up to three years ago, but we are now
united.
"Bolshevism does not make any con
siderable headway with our people
The Bolshcvists are the people with
strong SNcialistic leanings The big
things with us are industrial develop
ment and good roads The government
is going to spend S2,OCO,OOO and the
state large sum in addition on rood
roads in Tennessee in the immediate
future, and this fact. with ether indus
trial enterprises, will solve the uncm-
ployment problem"
Governor Roberts was accompanied
to New York by his sixteen-yea old
daughter, Helen, who is to be the
sponsor at the christening Of the bat
tleship Tennessee at the Brooklyn yarc

TORONTO, April 29-Lieb Samson
ovitch, also known as Leon Samson, a
former student at Columbia University
in New York, has been arrested here
with two companions charged with
revolutionary activities in having urged
unemployed foreigners to revolt. Sam
sonovitch, whose deportation will be

since Postmaster nurleson's appoIn,-
meht, Responsible for burlesoh at every
step or the way.
"The Postmaster General has done
nothing without the approval of his
chief" declared Senator Calder yoster-
day. "Every one in Washington knows
that President Wilson approved taking
over the telegraph telephone and
cables, and that Bureson took them
over because the President told him to
do it. When THE World and indc-
pendent Democrats charge Burleson
with being reactionary and causing
more damage to the party than any
man in it they are practically charg-
ing the President with political mis-
demeanors, because every major Off
clal' action, including the removal of
Mr.. Mackay from the control of his
own lines and the increasing of tolls
on those lines over Mr.. Mackay's OBJ
Jections, have been made with the ex-
press approval of the President. So
with the censorship of the cables. 1t
is not Burleson but Burleson's chief"
so when Democrats demand the
removal of Burleson they are demand
ing Of the President the removal Of a
man who has merely obeyed the Presi-
dents orders-nothing more, nothing
less. Probably Burleson has come as
near wrecking everything he has had
the management of as any one could. No
one man can entirely wreck the United
States government, but an official in
high position can go some way in
wrecking it, and that is what Burieson
has done with everything he has
touched. And every major official action
was at the direction of President Will
son."
