Hurley and Wilson
Paw Tribute to Labor

WASHINGTON, June 2s-The Ship
ping Board, in connection with the
launching of the Afel, made public
kilograms sent by Chairman Hurley
and Secretary of Labor Wilson to
Samuel Gompers, president Of the fed
Grafton, praising the spirit shown by
labor during the war.
You and the officers Of your great
organization" Mr. Hurley said in his
telegram, "have cooperated whole
heartedly with the Shipping Board in
building ships to help win the world
war. To-day one of the ships appro-
priately named Afel in your honor
glides into the water. This vessel soon
will be cruising to distant parts of
the world, everywhere giving a practi-
cal and convincing demonstration of
what Afel means"
Secretary Wilson said, first of all,
the launching of the vessel to- day
celebrates the splendid work which
American labor as whole did to win
the war, but in a larger sense
constitutes a message to the entire
world of labor's progress in this re
public and the hope of greater progress
in other lands"

Calls for Ordnance
Ignored, Says Crozier
General Says He Tried Without
Success to Prepare Before
Country Entered War

WASHINGTON, June 28.-Brigadier
General Crozier, former chief of the
Ordnance Bureau, appearing to-day be-
fore the Special House Investigating
Committee to explain why his depart
ment was so unprepared when war
came, declared he had repeatedly
recommended extensions before the
war, but without success. After the
National Defense act was passed, he
said. he submitted a request to the
Secretary Of War for a larger per-
sonnet and for authorization to con-
tract for ordnance but the request was
not acted upon.
"When war was declared" he con-
tinued, "the army had 600 machine
guns-a ridiculously small number; 500
field artillery pieces, a wholly made
quate supply of artillery ammunition
and other supplies in the same INSULT
cient amounts. Orders had been placed
for the various things needed but de-
liveries had not started.
fortunately" he added, "the army
had 600,O 900 Springfield rifles. enough to
equip an army of million men, and
200, 100000 rounds of rife ammunition

WASHINGTON, June 2s.-The Ger
man-American League, the revived
form of the German American ALI
ance, whose charter was revoked last
year, is feeling out the attitude of
Congress on possible softening Of the
terms of peace toward Germany and
resumption of pre-war activities Of the
alliance, it was learned to-day.
Letters or petitions have reached
members Of Congress, it was stated
put the natural unwillingness of the
league to come out in the open Is
withholding any active campaign.

1T is evident that move is on
spirit by emphasizing German kultur
and maintaining a Separate political
association like that before the war"
ne SAID. THE organization viii prob
ably De social body, because the day
mas gone by when Congress will over
again grant q national charter for q
racial political organization, whether
1T be of Germans, Irish or anvthinr
else. 70
IF the new alliance wants a charter.
II Will have to go to the various states.
There could be no legal objection, Of
course, to the revival Of the organiza-
tlon IN social form unless it violated
the law.
Il have no apprehensions concerning
Its revival. 1t was dangerous before
principally around the top. If we
wish to prevent a repetition of the
situation caused by the German-Amer-
leans, we must provide means to more
thoroughly Americanize our foreign
population"
The Bureau of Investigation of the
Department of Justice protested to
know nothing about the new German
lzed organizatio It was said at the
department that agents of the Attor-
ney General at Chicago had cognizunce
of the activities of the new organiza-
ton, and if violations of present laws
were attempted action would be init
ated there.
When the organization was first
formed. report was made to the
military intelligence division of the
War Department. This report was
made solely for the information of
the military authorities and did not
suggest reference to the Department
OF Justice. lnasmuch as the military
intelligence division has abandoned all
domestic operations, further surveil-
lance Of the organization has been
abandoned.

CHICAGO, June 2s.-The president
Of the German American Citizens
League, whose avowed purposes show
that its aim is to be in the future
what the German-Amercan Alliance
was until Congress repealed it's char
ter, is Ferdinand Walther. For many
years Mr.. Walther was one Of the lead
ing Chicago members of the defunct
alliance and for five or six years the
president Of the Chicago branch.
The trend of Mr.. Walther's thought
on questions connected with the war is
indicated by the fact that in 1915 he
and DR.. Herman Gerhard, secretary of
the new league, sent to the delegates
to the Republican. National Convention
notes protesting against the nomina-
ton for President of either Theodore
Roosevelt or Elihu Root. This they did
as president and secretary, respective
ly, of the Chicago branch of the Ger
man-American Alliance. In this con-
nection it is an interesting fact that
both Of these gentlemen are strongly
in favor Of the new leagues engaging
IN political activities in systematic
manner and on a large scale.

An Evening at Home
With MIR. WaIther

An evening spent with Mr.. Walther
at his home here proved to be very in
tercsting. He lives northwest of Lin
Ycln Park, in an unpretentious neigh
borhood. His house is fairly large and
il is homelike and comfortable in ap-
rearance. The premises are we'll kept
ana attractive. Mr.. Walther, who is
contractor, s,siXty7niue. He is typical
o. his kind and class. His manner of
meeting men is quiet, simple and pleas
ant.
When l asked Mr.. Walther to de-
fine the purpose of the German-Amer-
lean Citizens League he went to a
desk, took out copy of the leagues
constitution and handed it to me, ex-
planning it briefly. In the first article
OF this series the chief sections of this
constitution were published in trans
lation. 1t is sufficient to state here
that the purposes declared are very
similar to those which the German
American Alliance proclaimed and that
the leagues methods appear to be
modelled upon those which the de-
funct alliance pursued. The most i'm
rortant point of difference is that the
new movement will be openly politi-
cal, while the alliance, because of the
conditions of its Federal charter, car
lied on its political activities surrepti-
tiously. Membership in the league is
limited to citizens, actual or prospec-
tive, Of German extraction.

language, it is easier to explain to
them the Constitution and institutions
