China will be finished.
TT is a question, however, whether
China is Vet able TO do without the as
sis,ance of Japan in keeping foreign
nations at bay. and his help. strange
to say, is just what China does not
want. Is il that China would rather
be slave of the white races than the
equal of Japan? We can hardly cred

LABOR MEMS DISPUTE
TIES UP FEDERAL JOB
Carpenters Quit at Indian Head,
Claiming Lathers Doing Work

A factional dispute between mem
bers of the United Brotherhood OF
Carpenters and Joiners and the Metal
Lathers' Union of this city. engaged
on the construction of 100 homes for
workers at the Indian Head proving
grounds, has resulted in the tempo
rary tying up of that work.
The 265 carpenters working on the
job walked out last night when they
failed to bring about a settlement
The plaster work which comes in
nodded boards, the lathers claim, is
work that belongs to their trade; the
carpenters say that as the plaster il
In board form the work belongs to
them. Recently the matter arose in
dispute and 1t was referred to the

organization decided the case in favor
Of the lathers. The carpenters, 1t Is
said. refused to accept that decision
done under the direction of the Unit

Bell, superintendent of the work, said
this morning that the fight is a trade
one and that his organization has
nothing to do with it's settlement He
intimated that unless the dispute is
settled within twenty-four hours
he will complete the job with other
men, non-union il he finds it neces-

RULES ON USE OF FRANK

Members Of the cabinet are the
Judges Of what constitutes mail mat
ter relating to the business Of their
departments which may be distribut-
cd under the government franking
privileges. Attorney General Palmer
has ruled in holding that no law was
violated by the recent circulation OF
a discussion Of the Army court-mar-
tial controversy over the signature
Of Col. John H. Wigmore of the judge
advocate generals office.
Senator Chamberlain Of Oregon,
chairman Of the Senate military COM
mittee, had complained that the use
of the frank was improper because
the document supported one side OF
the controversy.
The Attorne.- General in a letter
to Senator Chamberlain made public
today, gave the results of an inquiry
and added. There is nothing further
that this department can do in the
matter"
Calling attention to the fact that
Secretary Baker had formally ap-
proved the distribution of Col. Wig
more's letter and also of Mai. Gen.
Crowder's letter to the Secretary
dated March 3, 1919. Mr.. Palmer
wrote:
1T clearly appears that the printing
and distribution OF these two letters
was at the direction of the Secretary
Of War and can in no sense be said
to be the personal or self-asserted act
of Col. Wigmore."

Apparently Mr.. Justice Holmes was

has thus far heard from them. 1t is
assumed that Mr.. Justice Holmes was

cause he pronounced the judgment of
the court in the Debs case, affirming
the verdict Of the lower court send

Officials of the court were notified
yesterday of the discovery Of the
bomb sent to Mr.. Justice Holmes.
They informed the members of the
court of the fact and warned them
to guard against opening any sus-
picious-looking packages.
The postmaster of the Senate has
