tary Baker spoke Of the "unattainable"
that had been accomplished under his
direction.
:, Another speaker was Major General
Charles c. Menoher. former commander
OF the Rainbow Division and present
head OF the air service. The following
message from William H. Taft to Cap
tain Rickenbacker was read:
AS private citizen / send my sim
cere congratulations on the opportunity
you have had to serve your country
and on the glorious way in which you
have improved that opportunity and
earned the gratitude of ALL"
Everybody cheered Mrs Rickenback-
er, and cheered her again when the
toastmaster referred to the gift which
mothers had made to the nation. Cap
tain Rickenbacker himself earned her
another round when. in disclaiming
praise, he said that the heroes of the
war were the doughboys-and the
mothers. Whenever he got blue, he
said, he used to go UP to the front line
and visit the burrows of the infantry.
The sight never failed to improve the
aspect of his lot, he said.

Protests on Luxury Tax
Swamp Conferrees Of Bill
New York Tribune
Washington Bureau


Washington Burenu
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-The food
luxury and semi-luxury taxes is now
of protests pouring in on the revenue
bill conferrees against the proposed
running almost as high as the food
that swamped the conferrees on the
theatrical admissions tax
The conferrees have never announced
precisely what their position is and
what has been written into the bill
except to say that in general the rates
fixed by the Senate were approved.
This means that the semi-luxury taxes
imposed on articles of personal use
and wearing apparel are established at
10 per cent of the excess beyond GER
tain fixed prices, but what the excep-
tions are to the Senate's rates in the
rest of the excise title have never been
announced.
The effect of the protests on the
conferrees up to date seems to be more
of the nature of growing belief that
the luxury schedules are unscientifi-
cally worked out and impracticable
Mr.. Kitchin, chairman of the House
Ways and Means Committee, favors
levying the luxury taxes, but it is
stated his intention is to revise them
by a supplementary resolution after
the conferrees' report has been
adopted

Girl Strikers Pleased
With Picketing Shops

Picketing of shops of dress and
waist manufacturers by girl strikers
yesterday was conducted peaceably
and with little disturbance and few ar
rests. Benjamin Schlesinger, presi.
dent of the international Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union. expressed him
self as greatly pleased with the de-
monstration and said that the girls,
who had been apprehensive. were en-
thusiastic as result of the days
marching up and down before their
former places Of employment
Mr.. Schlesinger said that although
the union was no nearer agreement
with the Dress and Waist Manufac-
turers' Association, the dress contract
ors to the number of $50 were ready
to accept the unions proposals in full,
and that final ratification depended
solely upon the dress jobbers.
Demands which the contractors are
ready to concede, according to Mr..
Schlesinger, include a 44-hour week
Is per cent increase in wages and the
right O the employc to review in case
of discharge.

Public Contracts
Urged by Barnard
AS Job Solution
Corporation Head Declares
Unemployment Problem
Is Only Temporary; Sees
No Decline i'm Wages

Otto +. Barnard. a member Of the
board of directors in more than a
dozen large corporations, declared yes
terday that "while The unemployment
problem in this country has not yet
become tragic, it is becoming serious
enough to warrant the government to
provements to provide jobs for the un-
employed"
Mr.. Barnard several years ago start
ed philanthropic employment bureau,
known as the National Employment Ex-
change, to provide employment for
skilled workers. His experience in that
enterprise, he said, convinces him that
employers cannot hire more help than
their business justifies,
"You can't pull yourself up by your
own bootstraps,' said Mr.. Barnard" "
Neither can business pull itself up to
the top pitch of capacity and give en-
ployment to every one who asks for it,
"Ay own idea is that the govern
ments national, state and municipal
should stimulate business and provide
plenty OF jobs by constructing the
many public improvements needed in
this country. Let US not start bowling
about possible industrial depres ssion.
Let us go to work and make such
depression impossible.
81 believe wages will remain high.
! have talked with many employers and
I believe it is their sentiment that good
wages will be a benefit to business.
But the workers should not now begin
TO ask for more wages. Some of the
labor leaders don't seem to know that
the war is over. The labor troubles we
have had tend to accentuate the unem-
OloVmcnt DrOblem"
Labor's view of the Unemployment
problem came from Thomas V. O'Con-
nor, president of the international
Longshoremen's Association and di-
rector of the longshoremen and ma
rine workers division of the United
States Employment Bureau.
"The cry of certain industrial lead
ers that war wages must come down
is an ill-timed and ill-consdered ut
terance of men who are out Of tune
with the times" said Mr. O'Connor.
wages are not high compared with
the cost Of living. The man who
makes $5 day now is no better off
than he was when he made $3.50 a
day ten years ago.
The working people do not look
upon any extended period of unem-
ployment as probable. Of course
there Will be d little of it now. Many
now workers have entered industry
l mean people who have learned
trade during the war. But this coun-
try is big enough to absorb all Of
them"

Another Milk War
Soon, Distributor Says
Van Son Declares That Present
Peace Is Merely an
ArvuiStica

Two inquiries into the milk stua-
tion were being conducted simulta-
neously in this city yesterday. While
the John Doe inquiry was in session
before Chief Magistrate McAdoo in
Special Sessions, committee ap-
pointed by the State Council of Farms
and Markets was holding its inaugural
hearing at the offices of council, 90
West Broadway.
The present peace between the milk
producers and distributors is merely an
armistice, according to the testimony
of Nicholas A. Van Son at the John
Doe hearing. Mr. Van Son, who was
head of the Country Milk Company, the
producers distributing organization
which broke up recently, declared that
ne looks for q serious rupture in April
or May.
Unless the farmers cut down the
price of milk the dairy industry in New
York State is doomed. This was the
testimony of Willard Clinton Evans of
the W. M. Evans Company of Brooklyn
Charles II. c. Beakes, president of
Twelfth Street, testified that by a sys-
tenn of zoning the CITY, with a Single
milk Company distributing in each
zone, duplication of service could be
avoided and Grade milk could be
sold at 13 cents quart

witness of the new State Councils

the figures given out Saturday by Gen

major casualties, Governor Henry J..
Allen, who had asserted the 35th Di-
vision suffered excessive losses because
Of poor artillery and airplane support
charged the War Department "has at
tempted to divert attention from the
real situation by calling attention to
the fact that the dead and missing in
the 35th Division are only 1,733,' and
that this division suffered less than
some other divisions"
"Why was it not frank in saying that
this division lost practically all of
these 1,733 in one engagement, while
other divisions. with which it compares
the 36th, were in several heavy en-
gagements ?" asked the Governor. "Why
did the department neglect to mention
that, in addition to these 1873, more
than 5000 wounded were in the cas-
ualty list of the 35th Division ?"

Ford Accused of
An Effort to SWAY
Opinion ON Suit
Special Correspondence

prestige Of Henry Ford might tend
TO sway the minds of possible jurors
III his million dollar libel suit against
"The Chicago Tribune" and whether
certain publications and other activi
ties had behind them deliberate at
tempt in that direction, were the basis
of arguments and examinations to- day
before Circuit Judge Henry A. Man
dell on a motion by the defendant for
change of venue.
That such a deliberate attempt had
been made through the publication Of
a pamphlet, "The War Record of the
Chicago Tribune" was charged by
"Tribune" attorneys
"This pamphlet" said Attorney
Stevenson, "was designed to counteract
the attitude of the Tribune by put
ting it in the light of favoring Ger
many"
Frank L. Klingensmith, vice presi-
dent and general manager of the Ford
Motor Company, first witness, testified
when asked by counsel for "The Trib-
une" regarding production Of the
Eagle submarine chasers Despite OBJ
lection by Mr.. Ford's attorney, he
stated that sixty of the vessels had
been ordered and seven thus far COM
pleted He testified that the Ford in
terests employed $1,000 men in and
around Detroit.
John w. Smith, jr, former chief dep
uty clerk under Milton Oakman, who
was Wayne County manager for Tru-
man II. Newberry in his Senatorial
campaign against Ford, told Of his res
ignation from lucrative job in the
circulation department of the Ford
publication after an alleged attempt by
Ford attaches to induce him to tell Of
Newberry preelection activities. Dean
Frederick Edwards, of St. Pauls Ca
thedral, called by attorneys for Mr..
Ford, explained his reason for a ser
mon in November in which he used a
quotation ascribed to the plaintiff that
every soldier should have the word
Murderer embroidered on his shirt"
This sermon was not about Mr.
Ford" said Dean Edwards. "It was
about soldiers, and have never heard
thaFsMr. Ford was a soldier"
Then he stilled the ripple Of laugh
ter that went over the courtroom by
saying: at was just two weeks after
the death of my own son-in uniform"
1T was announced that Judge Alfred
j. Murphy, who leaves the Circuit
bench February II is expected to take
part in the Ford suit. This was intro
duced by Attorney Stevenson as rea-
son for change of venue, on the ground
that many years of cordial association
with members of the bench could not
help but have an effect on the trial.
The case was adjourned until Tuesday.

French Socialists Want

PARIS, Feb. 3. - The French dele
gates to the Socialist conference at
Berne to-day published a note out
Inning the steps that must be taken by
the conference to make its work ef-
fective, as follows:
First, guarantees must be given by
the various parties that their engage
ments will be respected; second, the
definition of conditions for just peace
and, third, reDudiation of Bolshevism
The note says the absence Of the
Belgian Socialists from the conference
will prevent the body from making
resolutions which will be completely
efficient.
BERNE, Feb. 3-Swiss Socialists de-
cided by vote of 238 to 147,

ference being held here. The vote
came after lively discussion and was
followed by the resignation of Gus

declared that participation by
Swiss Socialists was a political mis-
take.

LONGSHOREMEN GET
SHARP ULTIM4TUM
Unless They Return to Work by $50
F. M. To-day, U. S. Shipping Board
Will Bring in Strikebreakers.

New York, Oct. a. New York 8
striking longshoremen to-day were
warned in an ultimatum by the United
States shipping board that if they did
not return to work by $50 .. M, the
board would undertake to end the long
tie.up Of shipping by loading and un.
loading its ships with men brought
here especially for the purpose.
I. V. 0'Connor, president of the In
ternational Longshoremen' association.
expressed his pleasure at the shipping
boards action and said he hoped the
men would return to-day
The first ship loaded to capacity with
a cargo handled by longshoremen since
the strike was the Norfolk, Of the
Ward line, ready to sail for Mexican
ports to-day. Tomorrow the Mexico.
also fully loaded by longshoremen, is
to leave for Havana. Officials Of the
line reported many of their dock work
ers returning to the piers.
No change in the strike situation
marked the opening Of the working day
to-day. In the big Chelsea district
where the great trans Atlantic lines
have their piers, no longshoremen re.
ported. Hundreds congregated along
the water front there declared they
would not resume work to-day, or a
month from to-day if their full de-
mands we're not granted.

ENFORCEMENT BILL
IS BEFORE WILSON
1t Is Doubtful Whether the President
Will Be Permitted to Consider
the Measure To-day.

Washington, d. c., Oct. "a Presi
dent Wilson had before him to-day the
prohibition enforcement bill, recently
passed by Congress, with an opinion
by Attorney General Palmer as to the
measures constitutionahty
Interest in the presidents action on
the bill was heightened by reason Of
the fact that the wartime enforcement
section, making illegal the manufac-
ture or sale of liquor Of more than
one-half of one per cent alcoholic con-
tent, becomes effective with his sigma
ture.
1t was considered doubtful, however,
by White House officials whether the
president would be permitted by Rear
Admiral Grayson to consider the bill
and the opinion to-day. DIR. Grayson,
after the president sent message yes
terday to the national industrial con
ference, ordered that no further gov
ernment affairs be brought to Mr. vii.
sons attention during the day. It was
not disclosed whether the prohibition
against activity would be prescribed to-
day. The president, however, has un-
til Tuesday midnight to act on the
measure.
Despite the Presidents activity yes
terday and the day previous, DR.. Gray
son was able to announce last night
that the president is satisfactorily
maintaining the improvement which he
has recently made"
