COMMISSIONER DEFENDS CIVIL
 SERVICE BOARD
George R. Whales, Testifying Before Senate Post Office
 Committee, Says No Undue
 Influence Was Contemplated

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-George R. Wales, of the civil service com mission, today told the senate post office subcommittee, considering contested postmaster nominations that the postoffice department had not endeavored to exeR any undue influence upon the commission.
 Since I have been a member of the commission" MT. Wales said, 'I have seen nothing and heard nothing that would prove any foundation for such a charge"
 Wales, who said he was Repuh- lican, also defended the commission's action in changing ratings in a civil service examination, so that Robert T. Wade, Democrat, was allowed a percentage higher than that of Cleve- land Willis, Republican, for the post mastership at Moorehead City, N. C., the commissioner declaring there is nothing in this case that "approxi mates anything wrong"
 H. A. Hesse, chief of the commits sion's examination division, and R. W. Kumbler, an examiner employed by the commission, told the commits sion that a message in percentage for business experience had been made in the original examination for the Moorehead City position and that the change made by commission was warranted.
 When the committee adjourned, Senator McKellar, Democrat, Tennes- see, said that in view of charges made by several witnesses of "pernicious activity" upon the part of the post master general relative to the civil commission, MT. Burleson should be given an opportunity to appear.

VILLA UPBRA|DS [ ARRANzA IN HIS
 MANIFESTO FUR THE NAT|0N'

Washington. Sept 22-Francisco Villa, general in chief' of the revo- lutionary forces in Mexico, in a man ifesto for the nation," copy of which has just reached Washington, as- sailed President Carranza as a "trai- tor" and calls upon Mexicans to join him in a new campaign against the regime of Carranza. This manifesto, which is dated Encampmento in Du- rango, begins:
 "To the large number of crimes against the democratic regime, against the tranquility of the country and against the security and welfare of it's inhabitants, CarranZa has only now added a new offense against the dignity and sovereignty of Mexico. This new offense consists in permit ting American troops to cross the border into Juarez last June, for which Villa planes CarranZa and General Francisco Gonzales.

CANAL CONTROL
 ADVOCATED BY
 CEN.M' ANDREW

Washington, Sept. 22.-America's Is future military policy as advocated to- day before the house military com mittee by Major General J. w. Me Andrew, chief of staff of the A. E. F. throughout the war, should call for 'peace on the Pacific on our own terms" This he said can be assured by control of the Panama canal and the Hawaiian islands.
 Although General McAndrew told the committee he was "loath to dis agree with the general staff" he took issue with its reorganization plan on the basis of an army of 509,000 men, proposing instead a force of 1000 at the utmost. While joining with thek general staff in advocating uni versAl training for 19-year-old youths, General McAndrew disagreed with it's proposed three month period of train ing, declaring it was inadequate and should be at least six months.
 General McAndrew recommended that the skeleton of 21 divisions, a field army of 1,250,000 men. as pro- posed by the general staff. be ap- proved, bat he suggested that these divisions, with the exception of four, be skeletoniZed to six or seven thou sand men, instead of a larger number as proposed by the war department. He also agreed with the department plan for a "top heavy" officers per sonnel, explaining these were needed for universal training, and even If such a system were not adopted, their retention would be advisable for quick enlargement of the army in an emergency.
 The peace time army of 100000 men, he said, should be distributed with one complete division at the Panama canal, another at Hawaii an other with additional troops if nee essary, along the Mexican border; small forces in the Philippines and Alaska. and the remainder at home for coast defense and training.
 By all means" he asserted, i've must safeguard Hawaii. Its loss in time of war would put Japan or any combinations of powers on the flank of our communications to Asia and the Philippines. It is likely that in any war in the Pacific we might nc' at first have the preponderance oi naval strength, and the army must maintain the islands until reinforce ments are brought from the Atlantic fleet by way of the Panama canal With one division and the shore pat teries we could keep navy off for some time, because of the few land | ing places"

"In order to return to that serene and calm atmosphere described by the senator from Arizona, move that we adjourn" and there was no dissent to the laughter of "ayes."
 Senator Reed, whose speech occu- pied the whole treaty program during tn eday's proceedings, had been speak ing nearly two hours when the first applause came. This followed his re- ply to a question by Senator Lodge, and brought the first stern warning fsom the presiding officer. Senator Reed, while upnoiding f1r1nly the rule, expressed the hope that the senate would not be too severe on the crowds because it was their only chance, he said, of expressing their opinion.
 Frequently Interrupted
 After he had been interrupted re- peatedly, Senator Jones, Democrat, New Mexico, an advocate of the league covenant, Senator Reed departed wide ly from his prepared speech, and it was while he was talking bluntly that the spectators voiced approval with hands and feet. This was particularly the case eafter he had declared that advocates of the league described one minute as prize fighter strong enough to whip anything under the worlds canvas and next as a man with paralyzed arms.
 The principal part of the speech was an argument against the league cove nant, with a bitter assault on the clause giving Great Britain six votes in the league assembly to one for the United States. President Wilson was sharply and severely attacked by Sen- ator Reed. who declared he had coun- seled with kings to transfer to them the sovereigntv Washington had won with the sword.
 It was o'clock when Senator Reed concluded his address and the original plan to continue reading the formal language of the treaty was abandoned.

The steel corporation, against which the main offensive is directed was able to operate most of it's plants in the Pittsburgh district, according to company officials. In the Chicago steel center, some of the largest plants were forced to close down but others operated on. rerueed scale.
 Itwas in the Mahoning valley that the strikers seemed to make the most headway, for with three large mills 1n the Youngstown district shut down and others running only part capac- 1ty, the steel producing industry in that section was reported to be fast approaching general paralysis.
 In the Cleveland district, too, the strikers apparently made a successful attack. Only four of the 20 plants were in operation, and according to labor leaders, 19,OO0 men are af fected.
 Telegraph wires leading into head quarters of both capital and labor were kept warm. as report followed report on conditions at 145 plants af
 
 came evident that neither the corpo ration had been able to keep all its plants in operation nor the strikers had been able to produce a complete tieup of the industry, leaders began to settle down to a prospect of a long fight. In this connection it was said an important conference of la bor chiefs will be held tomorrow when it is understood the question 0. financing the strike will be consid cred.
 Officers of the Carnegie company the steel company's largest subsid iary in Pittsburgh, claimed that, al though their forces had been depleted by assertions, they had been able to reorganize their, workers so as to keep all of the important mills operating at almost 100 per cent. This brought emphatic denial from the labor camp
 Steel officials admitted that in some cases blast furnaces, which they said they always had regarded as their most vulnerable spot, had been badly crippled.

force, he asked. in the most servile manner. permission to re-enter the city, defense of which had been con- fided to his military honor, and now he has the effrontery to say that it was his troops that defeated us."
 "The Mexican people will continue their fight until a definite triumph is reached to secure their rights. The entire nation realizes the deceit of which it has been the victim, and that Carranza has alone managed to gain power by the material assistance given by President Wilson, permit ting Carranza to pass troops through American territory during the Sonora fight, with the exclusive object of aiding him as a candidate in the presidential election.
 There need be no fear of repricals on our part" the manifesto continues, against honorable Americans who live in this country, as we will not allow the results of the fault or error of ruler or his subalterns to fall upon the innocents.'

PRES. WILSON
 CONTRASTS 7 PEACE PACTS
Attempts to Show Difference Between Vienna Congress and Versailles Conference;
 Treaty By Peoples Servants

RENO, New, Sept 22.-Contrasting the peace conference at Versailles with the congress of Vienna, Presi- dent Wilson declared in an address here tonight that the. Vienna peace effort failed because all the govern ments represented there were in the hands of small coterie. of auto crats." '
 At versailles, said the president, the league of nations covenant was drawn up by great democracies so that autoc- racies could enslave the peoples of the world.
 One of the purposes of the Vienna conferences, MT. Wilson asserted, was to form such a union as would hold in check the growing tide of democracy The chief concern of the delegates who sat at Versailles, he added, was to accomplish exactly the opposite.
 Speaking in a theater here to a crowd of about 2O0O, the president ire quently was interrupted by applause. By an electrical device his words were carried to three theaters holding 1000 persons each.
 In his reference of the conference of Vienna the president said that the ef- fort there made to stifle revolution and democracy had been unsuccessful in every nation but Germany.
 It was the invocation of the Monroe doctrine that broke the backbone Of autocracy's effort to overwhelm South America, and added that at Versailles the cycle of liberty had been com pleted by application of the Monroe doctrine to the whole world.
 Unlike the Vienna congress, con tinued the president, the conference at Versailles was made up of men who knew they wee rthe servants and not the masters of the people. As the peoples servants, he added, they had carried out their promise of perma- nent peace.
 "This treaty was not written, es- sentially speaking, in Paris" he said. Tt was written at Chateau Thierry, in Belleau Wood and the Argonne.
 "Our men did not fight with the pur pose of coming back and having the same thing happen. They fought with the purpose of seeing the league through and we are going to see 1t through"
 Paying a tribute to the frontier spirit of the west, the president said it was at the frontier there was found the forward looking people. Too many who oppose the treaty, he asserted, were looking over their shoulders.
 Referring to the "insubordinate rest lessness" prevailing in Europe and Asia MT. Wilson asserted that the world not only desired peace, but must have it. America, only, he said, could guarantee such peace Asking his heaers whether they had not heard of organizations in America "the purpose of which is nothing less than to over turn the government itself" he added that it was important to America also that unrest be eliminated.

time came in Pueblo without single disorder taking place in connection with the walkout early this morning of the 5000 employees of the Minne- qua plant of the Colorado, Fuel and. Iron company The steel company has not increased its force of guards, the police department has added but one or two men to it's force; the labor leaders declare there will be no dis orders from their standpoint. and with the exception of the lack of smoke in the steel works district and the large number of steel workers dressed in their best clothes visiting the business district, taking in the aters and sideshows that are here in connection with the state fair. no one would realize that there was a strike of 5000 men at the steel works.
 President J. F. Welborn. General Manager McKennan and Manager F. E. Parks of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company, were at the steel works gate at o'clock this morning to as- certain the effect of the strike call. They bade goodbye to hundreds of the men whom they personally knew. and others whom they did not per sonally know, and a few hours later announced that not enough men had reported for duty to operate the plant and that therefore the furnaces would be banked and work suspended un- til such time as the men should de- eide to return to work.
 30 Days Granted.
 PUEBLO. Colo, Sept. BOA strike of 500 employees of the Pueblo plant of the American Smelling and Refin- ing company within 30 days is immi- nent. A committee of the employees of the plant waited on Superintenu- ent George A. Marsh today and asked for improved working conditions and increase in salaries.
 The men asked raise of 50 percent all the way round. recog- milton of their union, elimination of contract labor, bonus system and ca tra pay schemes, as we'll as several otherminor concessions on the part of the company. Superintendent Marsh asked the committee to give him 30 days in which to take action and this time was granted.

 When Senator Reed, with arms lift ed high, closed his speech and sat down the applause broke, followed in- stantly by lusty cheering from every eailerq. Men in uniform joined in the demonstration and many women stood. waved their arms wildly and shouted with the men.
 Senator Ashurst, Democrat, Arizona, sitting near Senator Reed, and first to congratulate him, shouted loudly for orde ra moment later and the crowds, not Knowing what toe expect. suddenly became still. But the quiet orderli- ness of the senate did not prevail long for as the spectators realized that their conduct was being condemned, a wave of hissing swept through the chamber, while gallery guards strug- gled manfully but unsuccessfully to subdue and eject those responsible for it. Still speaking to the crowds, Sena- tor Ashurst declared the fate of na- tions was at stake while they were attempting to make the senate of the United States police court, and ap- pealed by name to Senators Lodge and Hitchcock, the party leaders, to stop it. The Arizona senator declared the galleries would not applaud decision of the highest court, which had never been called upon to decide a question of such tremendous importance to the world.
 Hiss Senator Ashurst
 The appeal was met with another volley of hissing. to which the Arizona senator replied that only snakes and geese missed. Meanwhile the chair was pounding for order and the crowds began piling out pell nell while members on the floor were swarming around Senator Reed. Sena- tor Lodge finally was recognized above the hubbub. which so rudely had shattered the dignity and traditions of the senate. and leaning on his desk and smiling, addressed the chair:
