TO SUFFRAGE RANKS
South Carolina Senator Makes Speech
In Interest Of Suffrage Cause.


South Carolina Senator Makes Speech
In Interest Of Suffrage Cause.
Washington, Feb. 5.-Strategy of
opponents Of equal suffrage was said
to have prevented record vote in
dosement Of the Susan B. Anthony
suffrage constitutional amendment
resolution at a conference tonight Of
Democratic senators.
After more than two hours of de-
bate, Senator Jones of New Mexico,
proposed Endorsement of the constitu-
tional amendment measure. Twenty
senator's voted favorably but all of the
opponents refraincd from voting and
Senator Martin, the Democratic lead
er, who presided, declared that the
resolution was not adopted because a
quorum was not present.
Before the vote on the Jones pro-
Dosal motion of opponents of the res
olution to adjourn was defeated, 23 to
I27.
AaAfter adjournment, Senator Jones,
chairman Of the woman suffrage COM
mittee, said the conference action left
the matter open for furthur consider
alton and would not affect his plans to
call up tho resolution in the senate
next Monday.
When we came to final action"
said Senator Jones, there was not a
majority Of the conference present and
therefore no quorum with which to
act on the resolution. A largo ma
jority Of those present, however, were
in fovor Of the resolution"
The political expediency of acting on
the suffrage amendment was the prin-
cipal theme Of debate, which was
marked by its vehcmence. AT times
senators spoke SO loudly that their
voices revcrberated through the thick
doors of the conference room and
echoed through the corridors.
Advocates Of the resolution argued
that the fortunes of the Democratic
party would be aided by Favorable ac-
tlon on the equal suffrage question
and said If it was defeated future 20
litical benefits would be received by
the Republican party. Opponcntss
were said to have contcndcd that 20
litical cXpcdicncy should not be fac
tor in so serious q matter as amending
the constitution
The meeting. the first held by the
Democratic senator's during the war,
broke up in a roar Of laughter over the
ruling Of Senator Martin on the point
Of no quorum on the final vote
1t was announced that one more re-
cruit for the suffrage resolution had
been gained in Senator Pollock of
South Carolina who spoke in its sup
port.
Friends of the resolution said pri-
vately that it would be brought before
the senate next Monday with at least
G3 Of the 96 votes assured in its favor.
This would be one short Of the re-
quircd twO-thirds but advocates OK
pressed confidence that the one addi-
tional vote for its adoption could be
secured.

among employees and the government
and rates would automatically be re-
duced when profits amounted to more
than "a fixed rate.
Inls plan, 1t was argued, would pro-
vide cheaper financing, give stability
OF income to security owners, promote
efficiency Of operation through sharing
profits, remove railroad operation from
partisan politics, compose conflicts be-
tween federal and state authorities.
keep rates at a minimum, eliminate
complications in rate schedules and
provide a means Of making communi-
ties benefiting by extensions pay for
them. The corporation would be sub
Jcct to regulation by the interstate
commerce commission, which would
retain its present regulating powers.
The brothcrhoods objected TO the
railway executives proposal for cstab-
fishing a secretary of transportation,
saying this would constitute "rcgu-
lating the people in the interests of
capital" They also protested against
the railroad administrations order
forbidding railway employees taking
part III politics, arguing that the so
luton Of the railway problem is a
political issue and that employees are
entitled to participate.
Mr.. Plumb suggested organization of
IAN operating corporation where op-
Grating ability constituted it's sole cap
ital."
"A certain agreed percentage Of the
net results OF operation should belong
to this corpration," he said. "Thc
stock of the corporation should be
held in trust for the benefit of the
employees. The corporation would be
administered by a board of directors,
who, we suggest tentatively, should be
elected in this manner: one-third to
be elected by the classified employees
below the grade Of appointed officials;
onc-third by the appointed officials and
employees; the final third being ap-
pointed by the president of the United
States.
With onc-half Of the profits going
to the government and the other half
to the corporation to be distributed
among employees, Mr.. Plumb said, the
men would be actuatcd by a desire to
promote efficiency and economy as a
means OF increasing profit
Such a scheme" he said, "would
render to the public all Of the bcnc-
fits of unified operation. 1t would
eliminate al 1.-The costs OF competition,
without losing any of the benefits of
competition.
This would remove the operation
Of the railroads from politics. Gov
crnmcnt officials could not possibly
have anything to say about the en
ploymcnt Of men or officials OF the
roads. They would have nothing to
say as to construction or extension Of
new lines.
THE government would have no
power to exact from the public a re-
turn which was more adequate for
the maintenance and operation of the
service and the public would not need
to be protected against high rates
and divrsion of ports to private
interests.
You could provide that Whenever
the actual amount Of nct revenue paid
TO the government exceeded per
cent of the gross operating revenue,

last year, the profit was only
l3 cents! In other words, if we
had paid $13.13, we would have
made NO profit.
Or, if we had received a

made no profit.
1t is doubtful whether anv
other business is run on so close
margin Of profit.
This is bringing the producer
and the consumer pretty close
together which should be the
object Of any industry turning
raw material into a useful form.
This remarkable showing is due to
enormous volume, perfected facilities

branch houses, refrigerator cars, etc.
and an army of men and women
chosen and trained to do their special

IRepubIlcan A. p. Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, June 1.-Investiga- tion of differences between the South ern Bell Telephone company and it's employees at Atlanta, Georgia, which has led to <l threat of a strike of tele- graph and telephone workers, was or dered tonight by Postmaster Genern Burleson, who said that information reaching him on the subject was con- flicting.
 Union leaders continued, however, to go forward with preparations for T strike some time after noon tomorrow. s. J. Konenkamp, president of the Commercial Photographers union, failed to reach Washington in time to inter- view postoffice officials on the strike, but telegraphed to a mass meeting held by the telegraphers and other electrical workers that, we are being forced into a nation wide strike be- cause of the suffering of commercial operators for the last 36 years. The message asserted that wages paid in all departments of telegraph and tele- phone companies had failed to keep pace with increased output secured by newer mechanical and electrical de- vices, but did not refer to the Atlania situation. Resolutions were passed calling for a walkout at noon romor- row of all telegraph and telephons operators of the Bell system, American Telephone and Telegraph company, Western Union and Postal systems in Washington, unless Atlanta operators, alleged to have been dismissed, are re- turned to places before that time.

H0Wker GreetS
 Commander Of
 NC-4In London

LONDON, June 1.-The crews of the three American naal seaplanes came ito London this afternoon and were given typical reception as their train stopped at Paddington station. Ameri- can sailors and soldiers rushed for the car that contained Lieutenant Com mander A. c. Read, who brought the NC-4 safely across the Atlantic, seized him and bore him on their shoulders up and down the platform and then to an automobile for parade. One of the first to reach the NC-4 commander, after he came from the train, was Harry G. Hawker, who had attempted to shout his congratulations las Lieutenant Commander Read was being jostled about on the shoulders and heads of a score Of men. The daring British aviator, who had wired his congratulations to the crew of the INC4 at Plymouth, had arrived at the station half an hour ahead of the train. The huge crowd outside the station cheered him and Mrs. Hawker as they drove up i7 their car. When they were inside the station, three cheers were suggested and led by an American officer and given him by the American fighting men. Then they gave three cheers for Mrs. Hawker. The Royal Air Force joined with the American navy men in arranging the welcome and took part in the proces- sion to the Aero club house. The Americans were welcomed there and then went to the Hendon flying field to witness "stunt" flying.
 Tonight they dned as guests of the Royal Air Force.
 The present plans of the American crew are incompelte. The commanders of the seaplanes expect to receive or ders to proceed to Paris, possibly to . morrow. 1t is understood the NC-4 will be dismantled at Plymouth and shipped back to the United States. None of the NC crews are anxious to participate in any flying here.

Labor Minister Declares Men 'Sit in Ashes of Own Folly''-Hints at Domin- ion Wide Movement In stigated at Calgary Gives "One Big Union" Idea as Cause
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WINNIPEG, June 1.-GideOn Rob ertson, dominion minister of labor, in a statement made to the press before leaving for Ottawa today to confer with federal authorities, said the pro moters of the general strike in in Winnipeg now sit in the ashes Of their folly" that sympathetic strikes must always fail, and that the Win nipeg strike is the first rehearsal of the play written at Calgary" where the "one big union" movement was launched last March.
 Mr. Robertson's statement was as follows:
 ''rhe promoters of the geenral strike in Winnipeg now sit in the ashes of their folly. Something like 90,000 men and women were called out for the purpose of enforcing the recognition of the right of collective bargaining In responding to the call, the majority violated and repudiated their obliga tions to their own trades unions and their contract with their employers.
 In a general sympathetic strike, the force is directed against the whole community Because of the incon venience loss and suffering imposed upon innocent people. sympathetic strikes must always fail.
 Socialism has chosen the one big union idea as popular primrose path along which to lead the trade unionist, urging him to discard his honorable obligations and join the big show
 "In March last, at Calgary, the play was written. The Winnipeg strike is its first rehearsal, with the main per formance promised at later date. The Winnipeg rehearsal has cost approxi mately two million dollars in wages lost in Western Canada, and has proved the play to have been badly written and unpopular with the public and most of the performers.
 Employers must not mistake the outcome of the general sympathetic strike as a defeat of organized labor.P

Sailor Carroll
 Pulls Same Stunt
 As Sam LangfOrd

Last winter sam Langford was scheduled to appear in an eight round bout with Harry Wills at the Armory A. A. in Jersey City. The fis- tic fans of this city and New Jersey became interested in the bout and when the time for the two battlers to enter the ring arrived a capacity crowd was on hand. Wills climbed through the ropes and sat in his cor ner waiting for his opponent to ar rive. LangfOrd, however, failed to show up and the big crowd was dis appointed. For his unsportsmanlike tactics the big coIOred boxer was suspended by the boxing commis- sioner. Langford deserved nothing less and the fans who paid to see him box Wills and whom he disap- pointed were satisfied with the pen alty he received.
 It is now the duty of the boxing commissioner of New Jersey to hand out the same punishment to a boxer named Sailor Carroll, a heavyweigh5. CarrolTs offence is similar to the one committed by Langford. He was sIat- ed to appear in the feature eight round contest of the show held at the Bayonne A. A. last Tuesday evening Al Roberts, the Staten Island heavy weight, was the boxer he agreed to meet. Carroll for some reason or an other failed to show up end Andy Miller was substituted. Roberts far outclassed Miller and in the fourth the bout ended abruptly when Mil ler's seconds tossed a sponge into the ring.
