Dublin, Nov. 22.-Strong police de- tails today raided every gathering place of Sim Feiners in search of leaders of the outbreak of Sunday. Three raids by police were aimed at Headquarters of the "Black and Tan' faction, and resulted in the capture of military equipment including machine guns.
 The number of victims in Sundays riot remained at IA, who were shot down during the police counter attack at 'Croke Park. The disturbance, started when Black and Tan" squads broke into football game, lasted far into the night.
 Unofficial estimates place the num- Der of dead much higher than Eng llsh officers admit. Dublin hospitals are filled with many wounded, some in a critical condition. An official statement said that only 80 were in- jured in the fighting.
 The Tipperary and Dublin teams were playing at Croke Park when the disturbance started. Police said the place for set for search, as many gunmen were in the crowd of 15,0O0 spectators. Black and Tan" soldiers first came on the field, firing the first volleys into the air and then straight into the crowd. One version said that 10 were killed in this attack. The police then counter attacked, and the park was cleared.

AMERICAS AID TO AUSTRIA

Vienna, Dec misconceptions
cf the Associated Press. But for
American charity the city authorities
'concede that Vienna's plight bad as
lit is, would have been infinitely worse
this winter. The burgomaster. DR..
Reumann, in appreciation of the ex-
tensive American relief being afford
ed by various organizations has asked
the Associated Press to convey to the
American people the following Chris
mas message:
"The distress in which the Vienna
population is living in consequence of
the dreadful war, has highly impress
ed the American people.
SIN Vienna children are starving and
lperishing from malnutrition, the sick
icannot be attended in the hospitals
for want Of medicines, surgical instru-
ments, dressing stuffs and other rem
edies Of all kinds; and the mortality is
rapidly increasing among the weak
and old. All these facts have called up
a undetermined readiness for help
very touching to the population of
Vienna.
"The American people have created
a number of relief committees for the
purpose of collecting gifts to be dis
tributed among the INDECENT of Wen
ma and the furnishing children. The
American government has taken great
interets in this relief work and the
American Red Cross has brought love
parcels of high value in Vienna and
softened the great misery to a consid-
cradle extent.
owe cannot enough admire this
| splendid assistance that was shown
Us in such humane manner; our
language has no words fit for inter-
rreting our feelings of heartfelt
thankfulness and gratitude.

COMMISSION
ATTACKS open SHOP"
ASSOCIATED Press)

N~ASSNN@@$OA = AO5oJ
New York, Dec. 26.-The open shop
campaign in American industry was
criticised as an effort to destroy the
organized labor movement, in state
ment issued today by the Commission
of. the Church and Social Service of
the Federal Council of the Churches of
Christ in America. This council is
composed of Representatives of 81
Protestant denominations having a
membership of about 19,500,0OO. The
statement follows:
"The relations between employers
and workers throughout the United
States are seriously affected at this
moment by campaign which is be-
ing conducted for the open shop pol
icy-the so-called American plan of
employment. These terms are now
being frequently used to designate es-
Establishments that are definitely anti
union. Obviously, shop of this kind
is not an open shop but closed
shop'-closed against members of la
Dor unions.
owe feel impelled to call public at
tention to the fact that very wide
spread impression exists that the
present open shop campaign is in
spired in many quarters by this an
tagonism to union labor. Many disin-
terested persons are convinced that an
attempt is being made to destroy the
organized labor movement. Any such
attempt must be viewed with appre-
hension by fair-minded people.
"When, for example, an applicant
for work is compelled to sign con-
tract pledging himself against affilia-
ton with union, or when a union
man is refused employment or dis
charged, merely on the ground of
union membership, the employer is US
ing coercive methods and is violating
the fundamental principle of an open
shop. Such action is unfair and in
imical to economic freedom and to the
interest of society as is corresponding
coercion exercised by labor bodies in
behalf of the closed shop.
at seems incumbent upon Christian
employers to scrutinize carefully any
movement, however plausible, which is
likely to result in denying to the work
ers such utilization as will in their
judgment best safeguard their inter
ests and promote their welfare. and
to precipitate disastrous industrial
conflicts at time when the country
needs goodwill and cooperation be-
tween employers and employees"
