M'FADDEN- WILLIAMS
CASE GOES TO JUDGE
Two n. Y. Lawyers Help Con-
gressmen in Action. Against.
Comptroller.

The accusations and counter accusa-
tons which for the last two years have
been exchanged with considerable reg
ularity between Representative Louis
T. McFadden OF Pennsylvania and John
Shelton Williams. Comptroller of the
Currency, have all been brought to the
attention OF the United States District
Court for middle Pennsylvania. in a
suit to restrain Mrs. Williams from un-
duly using the powers of his, Office to
injure Mr.. McEadden. T..
The First National Bank; Of Canton,
Pa. Of which Mr.. McFadden Is presi-
dent, appears as plaintiff in the action
which has beer brought against Mr.
Williams individually and which charges
in effect that he is usurping powers
beyond those inherent in his office in
an attempt to inture the standing of
the bank and ruin the personal credit
of its president The action was be-
gun May l and an order was issued the
same day calling on Mr.. Williams to
show cause why the permanent injunc-
tive relief prayed for should not be
granted temporarily pending a final de-
termination of the action. In the mean
time he Is enjoined from making any
improper use OF his office in respect to
McFadden or the hank.
Judge Charles B. Wit :. sitting at
Harrisburg. listened durins all last Mon
| day and Tuesday to argument by a
formidable staff of lawyers for and
against the motion for a temporary re-
straining order. Mr.. McFadden was
| represented by John, B. Stanchfleld and
Henry F. Wolff of this city. in addition

| Mr.. Williams by two personal counsel
| and a special Deputy Attorney General.

a bill which McFadden introduced in
| Congress last February providing for
the discontinuance of the office of Comp
| troller of the Currency. An exhibit In
the case Is a copy of a letter written

| 20 ancient as to have no bearing on the
banks condition, and with circulating
through these examiners confidential in
| formation concerning the banks GUS

U. S. RULE IN TRADE
URGED BY GARFIELD
Permanent Supervision by
Government Seen as Curb
to Radicalism.

CHICAGO. May 22.-Dr. Harry A. Gar
field, United States Fuel Administrator,
In addressing the National Coal Asso-
citation to-day expressed the opinion
that the governmental supervision of
business controlling the production of
basic raw materials exercised during the
war should be continued in some form
after peace has been declared.
He said he had no definite plan, but
thought that some arrangement should
be worked out whereby capital, labor
and the public. represented by q gov
Ornamental agency. should closely CO.
operate with the fullest publicity in the
coal industry and other lines producing
basic raw materials
Some such method, he said. would
curb the tendency toward radicalsm
and be for the benefit of industry as well
as the public.
Il know that many OF you feel that
the further you can keep away from
the Government the better" said DR..
Garfield. That is fixed in the mind of
the American people. or was before the
war. But our experiences In the war
have taught US a great many things.
ut Is not question any longer
whether the Government shall go be-
yond the very minimum. but how far
shall the Government go. / cannot be-
lieve that the experiences Of the last
two years will leave either you or the
public ignorant of the great value Of CO.
operation and its applicability to times
OF peace as well as to war. To those who
fear merely that Government will inter-
fere with things that they desire to do
which they ought not to do. I have
nothing to say. They ought to fear and
they will be made to fear. by one an
other, not by the Government.
Unless that kind of arrangement is
made, and made soon, we of the United
States will discover that forces have
been let loose that We would deplore
utterly. mean the forces OF radical
ism that by and by will insist that Gov
eminent do more than supervise your
industry. Capital, labor and the public,
represented through the Government,
should sit down together and discuss the
problem before any action Is taken
which affects the vital things of indus

STATES POLICY HITS
WOMEN WORKERS
Gov. Smith Says ConductOrette
Law Is in Line With N. Y.'s
Welfare Plans
Special Despatch TO THE suS

ALBANY, May 22.-"It lis not spe-
officially the law. but it is the policy of
the State, together with the working
agreements of the male railroad en-
ployees, that is resulting in the elm
nation Of women from street railroad
work." declared Gov. Smith tonight on
the receipt OF report from Lewis Nixon.
Public Service Commissioner, In regard
to the conductorette law.
80 long as this bill, enacted in re-
Spouse to tho demand for welfare legis-
lation, remains a law and is enforced, as
1t must be, the general employment of
women In many places on these roads
must cease" declared Commissioner
Nixon in his report.
Gov. Smith recalled. that the original
law prohibiting night work for women
in factories and limiting their labor to
nine hours a day likewise caused a re-
adjustment of women employed in fac
tories, but he maintained that there is
no fault to be found with the law so
long as II puts into effect a policy Of
the State to protect womanhood.
Mr.. Nixons report was attached to
copy of letter he received from
L. NJ Garrison, receiver Of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit, showing how officials of
that road have tried to adjust the sit
udtlOn 10 feIdln women at WOTh tney are
now doing.
Commissioner Nixon reported in ad-
dition that Mr.. Hedley of the Inter
borough also states chat IL the bill Is
enforced many of his women employees
must quit work, and further said that
this would for the present put 365 cars
out of commission"
The Commissioner pointed out that
nothing seems to uphold the contention
advanced in some quarters that the en-
ployers desired to drop their women EN-
ployees."
Mr.. Nixon's report adds:
There can be no escape from the
fact that this law must be enforced in
full measure, and that its enforcement
will cause the resignation of the guards
and such others as lawful service make
unavailable. Every one sympathiZes
with those who must suffer on account
Of the operation of this bill. but its
authors considered the gain in general
welfare to FAR outbalance the temporary

TO SAY IF ACTORS
ARELABORING men
Demands for Eight Perform
ances a Week May Settle
Mooted Question.

The question whether actors are labor
ing men may be in a fair way to be
settled to-day when the Producing Man
ayers Association meets at the Hotel
Claridge to consider the demands sub
mitted by the Actors Equity Associa-
| ton. which point toward a unionizing
of dramatic talent, though there seems
no possibility OF regular eight hour
day for temperaments.
The chief demand which the meeting,
to be presided over by Sam II. Harris,
| will take up is a stipulation for a union
! week of eight performances. so that for
holiday matinee and Sunday perfor-
mances, for instance. the players will be
paid overtime. just like persons who
| work for a living The histrionic labor
ing class. known among themselves as
the fifth estate, also insist upon stan
| dardized contracts-just like divers
discipline by the managers for anyone
| of their number who hires nonsunion
genius and payment for rehearsals
after four weeks have caused the pa
thence OF the performers landladies to
| wear thin.
The Actors Equity Association is said
to be ready to put to a final vote at its
annual meeting on Monday next the
question whether drama factories should
/
reported to have applied to the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor for recognition
by that body as members OF the honest
toiling class, and back of their demands
is the threat of a strike-although II
isn't expected the Government will be
called on to mediate II New York faces
an artistic starvation.
| The managers represent that as the
stage Is a gamble the actors should be
prepared to assume part of the risks,
and declare that as you can't really
unionize the divine fame, they are pre-
pared to use strike breakers, which
opens the possibility Of finding some
real use for the pupils at dramatic
| schools.

Col. Arthur Woods. former Police
Commissioner OF New York city and
now assistant to Secretary Of War
Baker, predicted that within the neY,
few months the country will see a
shortage of labor amounting to fully
7.000,0 men.
ut will be but a short time befors
there will be jobs enough to go around"
said Col Woods. "It must be remem-
bered that since the beginning OF the
war in 1914 this country has seen an
absolute discontinuance OF Immigration.
since then we would normally have re-
ceived from four to five million aliens
on our shores. These men will, when
the industries again hit their stride
have to be replaced. We must conside,
that for the time at least about on,
million men will remain in military anl
naval service. and that probably half
million will be engaged in shipyard con
struction work"
James p. Holland. president of III.
New York State Federation OF Labor,
urged that something be done to make
sure that returning soldiers get back
their old Jobs, saying he knew OF many
instances where this is not done. He
cited as one case that of Joseph Nc
Grath, a member Of the Sixty-ninth. who
wears three wound stripes, who was not
given back his job because he did not
secure the consent OF the officials to
leave his job when he went away.
"The Government report on shipyard
wages will open the eyes OF the public"
said Mr.. Holland Some people who
handled the shipyards would be more
at home in the State prisons"
Mr.. Holland said the cause Of build
ing inactivity was the high rates
by banks for loans
The programme of the State Bureau
of Employment for getting men back to
work was outlined by Henry d. Saver
of the State Industrial Commission.
