members of the rescue party, who were
buried by fresh caye-in, Friday, were

MARCH FOR ARMY
OF 100000 WITH
TRAINED RESERVE

Washington, Nov 22.--A standing
army of about 100000 men, backed by
universal military training system to
supply reserves, would meet the peace
time requirements of the United States,
General Payton G.. March. chief of staff,
declared in his annual report, made pub
lie, today, and which probably forecasts
recommendations to be made BY the war
department when congress reconvenes.
General March founded his judgement
on lessons of the world war that proved
conclusively. he said, that ability to be
self sustaining for an indefinite period,
provided the army was adequately pre-
pared, was the nations greatest military
asset.
Nothing Naval to Fear.
SO far as purely naval operations are
concerned he added, the United States
has nothing to fear from amy conceiv-

RADICAL TICKET
Chicago Convention in
Favor of Nationaliz-
ing Mines.
LEADERS AIM To KEEP
H. C.L. IN BACKGROUND

Chicago, Nov 2o.-Max S. Hayes, OF
Cleveland, was elected chairman of the
National labor party convention, which
opened here today. A committee on COM
mittees, composed of forty-seven men
and three women was selected during
the afternoon and Immediately went into
separate session. One man was selected
resented at the convention, and the three
women, Mrs. Madge Argo, Joliet, ILL.,,
Miss Rose Schneiderman, New York, and
Miss Agnes Nestor, Chicago, were chosen
from the assembly at large.
Immediate restoration of the rights
of free speech, naturalization of
mines. abolition of all speculation
in agricultural lands and destruction of
monopolies in natural resources are
national labor party. So the keynote
speech Of Chairman Hayes, declared in
opening the convention.
The entire morning was taken up in
examining credentials of delegates. more
than thousand of whom arrived today.
Representatives of farmers organiza-
tons are attending, although 1t is said
not great number were invited.
Likely to Delay Nominations.
According to Mr.. Hayes, the league of
nations, high cost Of living and other big
present-day problems will not be con-
sidered at length at this meeting. Eff
forts viii be made, he said, to divert the
delegates attention from those subjects.
1t is improbable that candidates will be
nominated for presidency of the United
States, 8 previously reported, he added,
as it Is desired to defer that action until
the next years convention OF the party,
when it is hoped 1t will be more strongly
organized
The delegates to the convention in
clude labor leaders, cooperative asso-
ciation sponsors, and representatives OF
farmers organizations and the Non Par
tisan League.
Steel Strike Head Heads
Many of the new party men went
sleepy-eyed to the meeting hall, this
morning, after all-night conferences,
caused they said by conflict between
radical and conservative leaders in the
American Federation of Labor.
The convention was called recently by
John Fitzpatrick, president of the Chi
cago Federation of labor and chairman
of the national steel strike committee
and his associates in the middle west
The two major parties would be at
tackled, Fitzpatrick said, with the in
tention of rendering them impotent. The
democratic party first would be assailed,
he said, because Of its attitude toward
union labor" and an assault on the re-
publican organization would follow.
Among resolutions which delegates
said would be presented to the conven-
tion were two for removal of the allied
blockade of the soviet government of
Russit, and an endorsement of the boil
shevik government.

partment presented tentatively to con-

600 men and the statement of the chief
of staff was taken to indicate that this
would be scaled down to 100000.

American Embassy Watching.

Today's London dispatches supplement
advices from Rome received last night,
which reported the American embassy
actively engaged in watching the situa-
ton. which was reported as holding the
possibility of serious development from
hour to hour. as regarded both Italy
proper and the Dalmatian coast
Venice, to which Naval Attache Reeves
has gone to report on conditions, is only
about 75 miles from Fiume, on the water
route, and nearer yet by the land lines.
The possibility of move into Istria by
D'Annunzio was mentioned in recent ad-
vices, In which case, the prediction was
made that whole divisions of Italian reg
ulars would be likely to follow him. An
Istrian move would take him to the bor-
ders of Venetia. In which Venice lies.
1talYs internal conditions have been
rendered more uncertain by the recent
elections, which gave the socialists large
ly increased representation.
The issue is sharply drawn between
the nationalist elements, which applaud
D'Annunzio's Fiume adventure, and the
pacifist socialists, who are bitterly
against any move that will be likely to
involve Italy in war.

coast will be conducted by the govern

public following the arrival here from
Washington, Of G. c. Richards, special
assistant to Attorney General Palmer
Mr.. Richards came west to ascertain

Complaints have been made to the

that the Italian elections were unfav-
orable to his cause. Many adventurers
are flocking to his standard, the reports
state, and among certain element there
seems to be desire to make him presi-
dent of Italy.
Some well-informed quarters believe
he merely desires to annex Dalmatia for
Italy and has no republican ambition.
Whatever his attitude may be on this
question, however, there appears to be
no doubt that he has not abandoned his
plans of aggression in the Adriatic.
A late report from Rome says the mil
itary party, which favors the annexation
of Dalmatia, has brought such strong
that the situation Is delicate.
