A prominent Senator exhibited yes

word to reject II. On this poll appear
the names OF eighteen Democrats and
twenty-one Republicans, as follows:

May Take, Different Ground.
On the other hand. there have
been some intimations that the
President might take different ground
and issue an appeal for ratification
of the treaty with milder reserva-
tons than those now before the
Senate. The effect of such a move,
/ IL II should be made. would be neg

concerned, according to Senator

One of the strongest speeches de-

johnson amendment to raise the
voting power Of the United, States
to an equality with that of Great
Britain was delivered yesterday by
Senator Shields. Democrat, of Ten
nessee.
Shields Denounees Covenant.
Senator Shields took extreme
ground in denouncing the arrange
ment whereby each OF the colonies of
the British Empire Is awarded the
same voting power as the United
States. He declared that the Ameri-

proposition so humiliating and so de-
grading.

200 SUMMONED TO
LABOR CONFERENCE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.
GRAFTON Of Labor. The last confer
ence Of this nature was held In e17.
shortly before war was declared
sgsinst Germany by the United
States. II was attended by l7s dele
gates. and resulted in the declara-
tion Of the labor leaders to. enter
whole e-heartediy Into the, war, ana
TO support the government in every
way possible.
!. Fseing = CrisIs.
But for character and inportance
from the labor view that the workers
now faeesa crisis. the coming confer
ence is TO be compared to the one
that was held in 1906. The confer
ence Of that year brought forth a
bin Of grievances which was pre-
sented to Congress. and later dec
laration Of program by the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor.
In this program the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor set forth the ''in-
difference and "antagonism' OF Con-
gress and the hostility" Of the
employers.
The program advised the workers to
take an active interest In matters
political, telling them to watch ele--
tions and to cast their votes with an
eye to the friendly or inimical posi-
tion of the candidates on the ballot
on labor matters.
Ns Labor Party.
Labor leaders declare that II Is not
the intention, at least Of the ma
jority. to organize a strictly labor
party in the United States. President
Gompers. Of the American Federation
OF Labor. is on record as opposing the
formation Of q labor party because
this would divert labor from the main
objects It has in view for betterment
OF wages and conditions.
The call for the conference means
that the labor leaders have decided
that there must be more organization
and a closer alignment Of forces. The
Illinois Federation OF Labor message
suggested that assessments be levied
upon organized workers and that an
offensive and defensive alliance of the
international unions OF the United
States and Canada be formed.
Aside from the steel strike. the coal
strike, and the threatened railroad
strike. the labor leaders are most con-
cerned with the legislation now pend
ing in Congress to prohibit strikes.
Presidents Of the railroad brother
hoods participated yesterday in a con-
ference at the Plumb plan headquart-
ers to discuss naturalization OF both
the railroads and the coal mines.

report he urged that consideration
OF the case be deferred until the
Federal Court of Appeals at Chicago
has had time to pass upon Mr.. Ber-
gers appeal from his conviction on
a charge of conspiracy.
Coincident with the report OF the
special committee; the House Elec-
tions Committee No, 1, composed,
with one exception. Of the same
membership as the special commit
tee. submitted it's recommendations
in the case, in which Joseph +.
Carney. Democratic candidate, con-
tested the election of Mr.. Berger.
The committee held that Mr.. Carney
did not receive a majority of the
votes cast, and is not entitled to a
seat.
The resolution that the House is
asked to adopt in the Berger case
follows:
Resolved. That under the facts
and circumstances of this case, Vic
tor L. Berger is not entitled to take
the oath of ONCE as q Representa-
tive in this House from the Fifth
Congressional district of the State
of Wisconsin or to hold a seat there
in as such representative"
The two reports will be taken up
Immediately after the passage of
the railroad reorganization bill,
which is expected to be ready for
consideration by November 8. The
railroad bill probably, will be before
the House for a week
MFR. Berger says IL the House
should exclude him. he will again be
candidate in the new election.
That the House will take this ac-
tion there seems to be no doubt at
this time. The vote on the resolu-
tion preventing Mr.. Berger from
being sworn in on May 10 was
adopted by a unanimous vote.
