HUGE INDEX Of ALL
FEDERAL WORKERS
Will Be Task of Civil Service
Commission to Aid Re-
tirement Scheme.

Perhaps the largest job of card in
dexing OF employees the world has
ever seen will fall to the Civil Service
Commission as it's share of the work
of carrying into effect and operating
the civil service retirement legisla-
tion.
While the main operation of the law
will come under the pension bureau.
the Civil Service Commission is
charged with making and keeping up
to the minute the service records OF
the 100000 civil service employees OF
the entire country
Such records will be an absolute es-
sential in order that the pension bu-
ing annuities under the retireme mt
legislation to those who will be re-
tired within ninety days. and then
from time to time as the remainder
OF the employees grow older day by
day.
Appropriation for Work Sought.
The Civil Service Commission has
asked Congress for an appropriation
10 carry on this gigantic card-ln-
dexing work, and is making plans
for immediate work on the big job,
The civil service body will keep
IN the central Office here in Wash
ington one great file OF all employees
Not only will the 100000 in the serv-
Ice in the National Capital be indexed.
but employees of all grades through
out the country will be indexed.
This great index will be similar to
the card files of employees kept now
by each separate Office in the federal
service here. There is to be record
of the employees birthplace. date OF
birth. time when first appointed to
the service, etc. Thus will be kept
complete record of every civil serv-
ice employe in the United States.
Basis for Retirement.
The retirement division of the PEN
sion bureau will use this card index
of employees as the basis for its de-
Examinations of annuities to be paid
retired employees of the government,
and the basis for the retirements
themselves
retirement may be made upon the
application of the employe when he
arrives at the proper age and has
been in the government long enough
but the granting of the retirement
and the proper annuities will not be
made by the retirement division upon
the mere representations of the en-
ploye.
The retirement officials will refer
the case to the Civil Service Commis-
sion. The latter commission will have
In it's great card index of employees
the proper information about each
employe as the case comes up, and
there will be no dispute of the rec
ords of the commission.
Thus it is expected that friction over
retirement will be kept to mini
mum. and the enforcement of the re-
tirement legislation made as smooth
as possible, both for the government
and for the employees

FARMERS OPPOSE
 RIGHT 10 STRIKE
STRONG MEMORIAL TO CON. GRESS FRAMED AT CONFER
 ENCE AT WASHINGTON.

Washington. Denial that any group of organized workers possesses an inherent right to strike is con- ta1ned in memorial to Congress, for mulated at conference here of rep resentattves of four large farmers or ganizations, the National Grange, the American Farm Bureau Federation. the Cotton States Board and the As soc1ation of State Farmers Union Presidents.
 In view of recent events and hap penings," representatives of the four organizations said it was agreed that the attitude of the farmer member ship of their associations on the right to strike should be made plain to Congress and to the country.
 Pointing out that the city poulation of the country is dependent on the farmer for food and that interruption of this supply can be brought about through strikes of railroad or other transportation unions, the memorial asserts:
 Those who believe that labor has an inherent right to organize strike believe that such organizations have right to starve the people of the cities to death, on the one hand, and to destroy the property of the farmers on the other No such right has ever existed and no such right exists now. It is economically un- sound and the American people can and will work C.. the settlement of such controversies. No set of men has ever had the mor- al or legal right to destroy property or cause suffering by conspiring to- gether and the welfare of all the peo- pie must ever remain superior to that of any class or group of people.
 What would be the verdict of the people if the farmers of the United States should suddenly decide to go on a strike and refuse to supply the wants and needs of those who are not in position to produce food an6 clothing for themselves? They wou. be condemned from one end of the country to the other and the fact would be pointed out that they, as the owners and tillers of the land had no right, either moral or legal, to bring about such a calamity. If the farmers who own and occupy the land have no such moral or legal right then why should it be conceded by anyone that those who handle the farmers products have a right to block the transportation or industrial facilities of the country and thus jeopardize the food and clothing sup ply of the nation? If the farmers have no such right those who handle his products have no such rights"

GERMANS MAY TRY
 OWN WAR LEADERS
ALLIES SAY SUCH A TRIAL Is ACCEPTABLE IN LIEU
 OF EXPIRATION.
ENTENTE WILL HOLD AL00F
Will Give No Interference and Will Hold Late Enemies Responsible For the Result of the
 Trial

London.-The allied reply to the German note of January 25, proposing as an alternative to the extradition that persons accused by the allies be tried at Leipsic, says Germany's pro- posal for such trial at Leip3ic is com ptaible with Article 228 of the peace treaty The allies, the note says, will abstain from intervention in the pro- cedure of that court.
 After saying that the allies have considered the German note of Jan uary 25, the reply says:
 "The powers observe that Ger many declares herself unable to car " out obligations imposed on her by Articles 228 to 230. They reserve to such measure and form as they may judge suitable the rights accorded to them by the treaty.
 "The allied note, however, the Ger man governments declaration that they are prepared to open before the court of Leipsic proceedings without delay, surrounded by the most con- plete guarantees and not affected by application of all judgments, proceed ure or previous decisions of German civil or military tribunals before the Supreme Court at Lepsic against all Germans whose extradition the allied and associate powers have the inten- tioa to demand.
 "The prosecution which the Ger man government proposes immediate ly to institute is compatible with Ar ticle 22S of the peace treaty, and is provided for at the end of the first paragraph.
 "The allies will abstain from in terYention and verdict in order to leave to the German government com plete resonpsibility. They reserve the right to decide by the results as to the good faith of Germany, the rec ognition by her of the crimes she has committed.
 "They will see whether the Ger man government, who have declared themselves unable to arrest the ac' caused named on the list to deliver them for trial, are actually determln- ed to judge themselves.
 "Tho allies have decided to en- trust to a mixed interallied commis- sion the task of collecting, publishing and communicating to Germany de- tails of the charges brought agai st each of these whose guilt shall have been established by their inyestiga- tions.
 The allies would emphasize that procedure before a jurisdiction such as is proposed can in no way annul provisions of Articles 22S to 230 of the treaty.

MANY TERROR|STS
 SEIZED IN RAID
GROUP CALLED MOST DEADLY TO THE UNITED STATES TAKEN
 BY SECRET SERVICE MEN.
ALL ARMED WHEN TAKEN
The Most Important Capture, Accord ing To Officials Was That of the Editor of the Italian Anarchist
 Paper, "The Massacre"

Paterson, N. J.-Twenty-nine radi- calls, said by Secret Service agents to include the most dangerous terror sts in the United States-members of
 otorious L'Era Nuovya group whose
 reed is assassination and violence by individuals without waiting for mass action, were captured by 100 pick
 d agents of the Department of Jus
 ice in dramatic raid on Red"
 eadquarters here. Warrants had been sworn for 32, but three escaped.
 All official records of the l. w. W. for the entire district east of Chi cago were seized in the home of An drew Graziano, anarchist. In this house, federal agents said, B. F. Doree Philadelphia secretary of the I. w. w, was in hiding. He is under fdict- ment in Chicago, and is alleged to have moved the records from Chicago to Philadelphia, thence to Paterson. Leaders, osters, and statements of financial transactions covering the cities of Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, New Bedford, Roches- ser and elsewhere, were seized.
 The most important capture, fed eral officials said was that of Lud- ivico M. Caminetta, editor of the Italian anarchist magazine, La Jac queric (The Massacre.) The printing office was raided, and as the federal agents entered they found printers running off an l. W. w. pamphlet en- titled, "The Truth About Centralia." The library of Fermino Gallo, said to be the most complete collection of anarehistic literature in the United States, also was raided. Truck loads of inf1ammatory literature were con fiscated here and in othe places, also a quantity of revolvers.
 Every anarchist captured was armed. The raiders were led by Frank R. Stone, head of the New Jersey division of the Department of Jus tice, who detailed six of his men to each arrest in view of the reputed desperate character of the men sought
 Caminetta is disciple of Enrice Malatesta, who founded the L'Era Nuova group 25 years ago. Bresci, the assassin of King Humbert of Italy, belonged to this coterie. Nal testa came to this country from Italy to spread the propaganda of ter rorist-individualist," anarchy. He was highly educated and was said to be a member of titled family of Italy.

SECRETARY OUSTEO
 FROM THE CABINET
PRESIDENT ASKS AND RECEIVES RESIGNATION OF SECRE-
 TARY OF STATE.

Washington. - Robert Lansing end cd his career as secretary of stnte af- ter President Wilson had accused him of usurping the powers of president by calling meetings of the cabinet during MT Wilson's illness.
 MT. Lansing denied he had sought or intended to usurp the presidential authority He added, however, that he believed then and stil believed that the cabinet conferences were flor the best interests of the republic" that they were proper and necessary" be cause of the presidents condition and that he would have been derelict in his duty if he had failed to act as he did
 AS the record stands Mr Lansing rendered his resignation and MT. Will son accepted It. The resignation was offered, however, only after the presi- dent, under date of February ', had written asking if it were true that MT. Lansing had called cabinet meet ings, saying that if such were the case he felt it necessary to say that under our constitutional law and practice, as developed hitherto, no one but the president has the right to summon the heads of the executive departments into conference"
 MT. Lansing answered two days later-saying he had called the cabi- net conferences because he and oth- CTS of the presidents official family felt that, in view of the fact that we were denied communication with you, it was wise for us to confer in formally together on . matters as to which action could not be post poned until your medical advisers per mitted you to pass upon them"
 The secretary concluded by saying that if the president believed he had failed in his loyalty" to him, and if MT. Wilson no longer had confidence in him, he was ready to relieve you of any embarrassment by placing my resignation in your hands"
 The president replied that he was much disappointed" by MT. Lansing s letter regarding "the so-called cabinet meetings" He said he found nothing in the secretary's letter (which justi- fies your assumption of presidential authority in such a natter and add ed that he must frankly take adyan- tage of your kind suggestion" to re- sign.
