ualties. but had recovered when they
landed. happy and smiling.

BIZ Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 3-Opening
the White House conference of gov
ernors and mayors on peace time busi-
ident Wilson promised that the fed
eral government would consider it
self the servant of the states, munic-
ipalities and counties in solving read
justment problems. and would per-
form its duties guided by suggestions
of the conference.
The president said he hoped the
conference discussions would assume
wide range including themes of re-
storing labor conditions to a normal
basis as soon as possible, and to eff
fecting such fresh ALLEGATIONS of la
Dor and industry as the circumstances
may make necessary.
Touching upon the peace confer
ence he said the conference had at
Paris regarded themselves only as ser
wants of seven hundred million peo-
| pie of the world and not as their mas
tiers.
tbe conSe,.es are Elizabeth Meyers j:
close sympathy wpy the -
whom they represent ito fnd out how
we can best assist in making their
lives what they wish them to be by
giving them the opportunity that they
ougth to have"
The president spoke briefly con-
fining himself largely to welcoming
visitors and promising complete fed
eral cooperation. He explained that
the demands upon his time during
the day and a half he could remain in
Washington, made it impossible for
him TO participate in the conference
Secretary Of Labor Wilson, who
presided at the opening session, told
the conference that the recent strike
at Seattle. Buette, Lawrence and
other places were not industrial econ
omic disputes in their origin but were
results of a deliberate organized at
tempt at a social and political move
ment to establish soviet governments
in the United States.

Manchester Resident Regained Health
When She Used This Tonic
Medicine.

Rich, red blood is absolutely necessary
to good digestion. This is fact which
every sufferer from indigestion or stom-
ach trouble should keep in mind when he
is seeking relief from the distress which
follows meals, the fatulency and sour
ness. Impoverished blood impairs the
activity of the gastric glands and weak
ems the muscles of the stomach. On the
other hand imperfect digestion prevents
the blood from receiving proper nourish-
ment and causes it to become defective
in quantity and quality.
A tonic, therefore, that is a specific
for thin blood will improve the diges-
ton and an improved digWtion will has

Rep. Blanton of Texas Says
He Forced Wilson to Ex-
empt Union Men
MADE McADOO GIVE
$700,000,000 IN WAGES
And Caused Wilson to Kill
the Bill Requiring Full
Services for Pay

Mineral Wells, Tex, April 1S.-Repre-
sentative Thomas l.. Blanton of Abilene,
Tex, speaking last night at the conven-
ton of the United States Good Roads
association, declared that the people of
the country must awaken to the danger
that impends to their liberty because of
the attitude of Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent of the American Federation of La
Dor.
He asserted that Gompers had forced
President Wilson to exempt members of
labor unions from the draft act; had
forced Secretary McAdoo to take $780,
100000 of the money of the people and
the railroads and give it TO the members
of the four big railroad brotherhoods;
and that when Congress had passed a
bill to compel government employees to
work the eight hours for which they
were being paid he had forced President
Wilson to kill that bill by threatening
strike in the midst of the war.
Blanton declared it as his belief, found
ed upon his experience in Congress dur
ing the war, that socialism is nothing
but unionism, and unionism is working
with applied socialism He asserted that
100000 men are now held in the army
camps in the United States because
Gompers demanded it on the ground that
rapid rehabilitation would msettle the
organized labor schedule
"There is bolshevism in this country
now and it is showing its fangs against
the government" he said.
Chicago, April lS.-Denunciation of
the American Federation of Labor as
the power that dominates the governs
ment at Washington was the feature of
a speech here last night by John H. Kir-
by of Houston, Tex, president of the
National Lumber Manufacturers asso-
citation. Kirby said:
There is a privileged class and rul-
ing class within our country to-day, the
class that takes the brand of the union
label instead of the great seal of the
state, and is dictated to by the American
Federation of Labor that maintains a
lobby in Washington that hound those
not amenable to its dictates.
Under the cloak of getting work for
the returning soldiers some Sl4,500000
was appropriated in bill to Congress
to the employment bureau, but such a
protest was made that this was reduced
to $l0000,000. Then the farmers of the
country learned what was being done,
and the entire sum went out of the bill;
which shows how quickly Congress re-
spends to the voice of the real people"
