44-HOUR WEEK FOR LABOR

Delegates believed that with the entry

The convention today pledged its sup
port to the commercial teegraf operat-
ors and appointed a committee to confer
with Postmaster General Burleson in
hope of obtaining for the telegrafers the
same conditions which have been granted
to electrical and teiefone workers. A
resolution was adopted requesting con-
gress to investigate the alleged suppress

tions in western Pennsylvania, while an
other resolution criticizing municipal of

civil police duty in strike.
When the question of a A hour week
came up it was apparent all delegates
as well as the officers were inclined to
the view that the shorter work day was
one of the most important subjects ap-
proved by the reconstruction convention.
The report of the committee was adopted

Atlantic City, June 23.-The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor at the closing
session today Of its annual convention
pledged itself to obtain n general A.
hour week for workers in all crafts thru
out the United States and for employees
in the government service. The demand
was based on a determination to prevent
unemployment, which the delegates de-
clared is one of the two primary causes
of industrial unrest. The other cause Is
the decreased purchasing power of the
dollar. Manufacturers and employers
were urged to bridge the gap" and in
crease wages without any controversy"
Samuel Gompers was greeted with a

HUNDREDS Of FIGHTERS
hRE BATTLING Them

MissouIa. June 23.-With scores
of fires both great and small hIaz-
ing In all parts of the district, the
local headquarters of the forest
service Is threatened with situa-
tion which a week ago was not thot
possible. Extremely high tempera-
lures thruout the northwest In the
last seven days have reduced the
woods almost to finder and fires are
popping" everywhere.
Fifty men left today for various
parts of the district and sss many
more are to 90 tonight. while the
demand for more fire fighters re-
mains heavy.
The most serious fire Is In the
Fiathead forest. where there Is one
raging on White river over an area
three miles by two miles in extent.
This fire Is spreading rapidly over
the continental divide. A crew is
working In on 1t from Great Falls
to the westward.
In the Clear Water forest in Idaho
another fire is causing anxiety.
This fire, which was caused by light
ming, jumped the control lines during
last night and drove before it the small
crews of fighters engaged there.
Fifty-feur men were on this fire last
night and 26 more were sent in today
Two smaller fires were reported to-
day from Salmon Mountain. Idaho. west
Of Darby. The blaze discovered two days
ago near Bonner is burning in slashings

large force of company employees has
gone up the Blackfoot valley to fight
it.
Fifty men went today TO Superior to
fight the fire on Black Tail mountain,
which has assumed dangerous proper

Would Declare.
War With Germany
TO Be at an End

Washington, Iune $50 that
war conditions may not be prolonged
should the peace treaty fail of rati-
fication or its approval be delayed,
league Of nations opponents present
ed in the senate today proposal to
declare state of peace with Ger
many and Austria n ungary.
The declaration was introduced
both as an amendment to the pend
ing army bill and as separate joint
resolution by Senator Fall of New
Mexico, republican member of the
foreign relations committee.
The amendment is expected to
come up tomorrow
Both in his amendment and in his res
olution Senator Fall proposes that the
president be directed to secure the i'm
mediate return Of all military and naval
forces now abroad on duty connected
with the war The amendment would
provide that none of the money appro-
priated by the army bill could be used
for the maintenance of forces on foreign
soil except as required by peace condi-
tions. A joint resolution similar to that
presented by Mr.. Fall was introduced
by Senator Edge, republican, New Jer-
sey.
1t was considered probable tonight
that the amendment would be rejected
on a point of order and that the league
opponents then would line up behind the
Fall resolution. 1t would require action
by both senate and house, but whether
the presidents signature also would be
necessary is disputed question.
Injection of the peace delegation into
the treaty fight came after promise of
protracted calm had been dispelled by
an announcement by Senator Know that
he intended to press for action, as soon
as the appropriations bills were passed,
his resolution against accepting the
league covenant as entwined with the
peace terms.
This announcement surprised many
senators and promptly was met by pre-
dictions from league supporters that the
Knox resolution never would be brought
to vote. In the same quarter it was
suggested that if it were to come before
the senate it would be altered in several
details. since one of it's objects as it
now stands is to secure a change in
the peace treaty to provide for separate
action on the league. This. its opponents
say, would be impossible now.
Presentation of the peace declaration
proposals led to no debate altho issues
of the league fight had been discussed
earlier in the day in connection with
various matters relating to it in the
senate record. Senator Hale, republican,
Maine, made an attack on the league
covenant in presenting an amendment to
the Knox resolution.

Righteousness means victory with

natures. There is no peace without
victory in the spiritual life, and am
inclined to think that holds good be-

IoIN IN CHRISTOPHER FIGHT
Crop Valued at $4oo, 600 In Five North
Dakota Counties Saved by
Farm Bureau.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Farm bureaus of five counties or
North Dakota, by fighting grasshoppers
last year, saved crops valued at $4OO,-
600. Slope county alone saved $780,
900 worth Of crops at cost of $5,OOO.
It was seen that nothing short or
an organized fight would stop the
pests, so the county commissioners or
the different counties were appealed to
for funds with which to purchase pol"
son and other materials. The money
was voted from the general fund OF
the counties and the farmers were fur
nished with poisoned bran. The county
money made 1t possible to purchase
the materials In quantities and ar
much lower prices. The farmers soon
saw that the poisoned bran, when
properly used, was doing the work,
and the county agents were kept busy
tracing shipments Of bran, molasses'
and arsenic.
Farmers, many Of whom would have
been forced to give up their farms II
this fight had failed, have expressed
appreciation for the assistance given
them by the county agents. and the
counties and the county commission
ers are said to feel that the money
was well spent.
