Kansas City. Mo-. June 20.-In alb
sence of the one-cent a mile railroad
fare, harvest hands will be transport
ed to Kansas wheat fields in motor

Kansas wheat fields. They will ar
rive there next week. Others will be
started from here.
Steady rain yesterday is reported to

trict. however, state $4,000 workers
will be needed there when the harvest
gets under way about June 2S.

ing against both the league and peace
treaty in their present form,
Furuseth bases his opposition in
part upon contention that the labor
section of the treaty was altered after
Gompers left Europe, SO that it classes
labor as a commodity and article of
commerce. He also declares the cove
nant establishes a super-legislature
and makes Britain dictator of the
worlds workers, while under 1t the
United States relinqdishes her sover-

Gompers was expected If necessary,
! to make one of the most brilliant
speeches of his career in support of
the covenant and the peace treaty,
pointing out that neither is perfect,
but asserting they represent the great
est steps forward ever taken for the
benefit of labor and humanity.
