'CARRANzA DENIES HE WILL SUPPORT
 .SENOR BON|LLAS
In Letter to Obregon He De cfares Government Has No Part in Campaign = Insists Officials Are Real ly Out of Politics
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

MEXICO CITY, March 27.-Unquali- fled denial that the government will support the candidacy of Ygnacio Bo- nillaS, ambassador to the United States. for the presidency of the repub- lie is contained in a telegram which President Carranza yesterday sent to Lieutenant Colonel Alvaro Obregon, who also is a presidential candidate
 The telegram also contained a rebuke for what it termed the disrespectful tone in which a recent protest to the president by Lieutenant Colonel Obre gon was couched. Obregon, under date of March 23, addressed a telegram from Monterey to President Carranza, charging the government with having displayed partiality, and protesting against the arrest of three military of ficers after the arrival of Senor Bo- nillas in Mexico City, March 21.
 President Carranza's answer de- clared the administration had recom- mended that all government officials refrain from interference in politics. The president explained that the three officers were arrested because they had violated orders of the day, which di- rected the military to remain in their barracks at the time of Bonillas' ar ravaI. one of the officers was released when he proved he had taken no part in the disorders, while the other two are serving short sentences
 Accuse Obregon Followers
 Denouncing Obregons charge of par tiality, the president asserted that on the contrary the administration had shown great patience with the fol- lowers of Obregon, who had violated the laws, and charged them directly with fomenting trouble during mani festations for other candidates.
 Relative to the campaign work per formed by Gen. Candido Aguilar for Bonillas, the president said Aguilar had separated himself from his govern mental and military posts and had a perfect right to work for anyone he chose, while his efforts did not mean that he represented the government.
 Pablo Gonzalez, another presidential candidate, issued a statement today to the effect that he was willing to confer with the other two candidates for the purpose of choosing a fourth candidate upon whom the three present candi- dates could unite.

In Industry Are Doomed,
Says Engineers Head

Philadelphia old driver meth
DDS of industrial management will no
longer do, says Fred j. Miller, presi
dent of the American society of me-
chanical engineers, writing in the
Philadelphia Public Ledger
MANY of the industrial Difficult
ties of the present day." he said, "are
due to the resistance of workers
everywhere to being forced back to
their former inferior status. They
are insisting that if they are good
enough to place their lives at the dis
posal of civilization they are good
enough to have at least some voice
in determining the manner of life they
shall lead in the civilization they have
striven to preserve.
"In every country of the world the
trend for years has been toward de-
mocracy; the absolutism, both in gov
ernments and industries, is perceived
to be an anachronism.
Constantly the line of demarcation
is being more clearly drawn between
those who render useful service in
return for what they obtain of this
worlds goods, and those who do not.
Many of the most profound students
of this, our greatest problem, believe
that the modern tendency of those who
labor to plan for action in their COM
mon interest is, after all, the best pro-
lection society can have against
worse things-evils which history
shows have led almost inevitably to
degeneration and social decay.
1T is not true that production has
fallen off everywhere. There are es-
tablishments in America wherein pro-
duction is now greater than before
the war, and many of them in which
it is as great. Investigation of the
methods followed in these establish
ments will convince almost anyone
that the driver method of industrial
management is bound to disappear.
"We must get away from the in
dustrial ideas that have been handed
down to US from slavery, and one or
another form of industrial co-opera-
ton must take their place"

REVOLUTIONISTS
JEERED
BY British Labor Leader

London, England. handful of
men in the labor movement who talk
of revolution" were jeered and ridi-
culed by Tom Shaw, trade unionist
and member of parliament, in a
speech in which he discussed the re-
cent miners strike The unionist de-
clared that the miners were justified
in their wage demand and asked if
the men who talk of revolution really
understand what they say.
"If a revolution did come" said
the speaker, "the men who would be
responsible for that situation would
discover that they are conscientious
objectors and would let others do the
fighting when the bullets began to
fly"
"There is a better way than rev.
olution," said Shaw. There is the
way of common sense, enlightenment
and education, of teaching the people
that it is better to put a cross on a
ballot paper than to stop bullet"

Reelected President of Ma
chinists' UniOn-Other
Officers

Machinists' Union, Local No 241,
elected officers for the ensuing term.
And it was battle, battle such as
was never before witnessed in the an
rails of any local labor organization,
q battle that bespeaks the enthusias-
tic interest in the affairs of their or
ganization taken by the members of
local 241 The balloting began on
Wednesday night, December l, at
which time the men employed on the
day shifts voted, and the night men
voted Saturday afternoon following.
A rule of the Machinists' Union is
that the officers elected must receive
a majority of all votes cast. After
the count of the ballots it was found
that with three candidates for finan-
cial secretary neither candidate had
received clear majority, and with six
candidates for trustees and two to be
elected, neither two had received
majority. 1t was then decided to drop
the low man for secretary, and the
two lowest for trustees, and another
election ordered held.
The balloting again started Wednes-
day of last week and closed on Sat
urday afternoon. And buh-heve us, il
was some scrap. 1t had battle royal
skinned block More votes than
ever were cast. The final result of
the election follows
President, William Matthews; vice
president, Y. Gugle; financial secre-
tary, Orville King; recording secre-
tary, Homer Jones; treasurer, Harry
Berry; conductor, Ernest Stephan;
doorkeeper, Joe Bell; trustees, Harry
Jones and James Slinker; delegate to
Trades Council, Ted Smith; business
agent, Ted Smith. This is Smiths
fourth consecutive election as bust
ness agent.
In the future, besides business
agent, the machinists will have per-
manent secretary. Orville King,
newly elected financial secretary, will
devote all his time in the future to
The welfare Of the organization. His
office as soon as it can be gotten
ready will be located in the new labor
temple.

Plea Is Made By Federal
Board

Washington. - The federal board
for vocational education is pleading
the case of injured workmen who
would equip themselves for more re-
muneratiye employment but cannot
afford to give up their small wage
to take the training.
Under the federal industrial re,
habilitation act of 1920 the govern
ment aids the various states that ac-
cept the act by paying the salary of
teachers for these injured workers.
The law does not provide any money
to support the man while he is train
ing
Suppose, says the federal board,
AN injured worker can earn small
weekly wage as a watchman or in
some other position requiring no
skill In most cases he can not af-
ford to give up his small wage long
enough to take the training offered
him which will bring him a fatter
pay envelope in the END.
1T is here that the state work
mems compensation, or the mans
union, or some other agency must
step in and see that the mans living
expenses are cared for while he is
learning new trade.
"The recent conference called by
the federal board for vocational edu-
cation in this city showed plainly the
great need for further state legisla-
ton along these lines"

shattered by the drop in wholesale

wholesaler exacting profit, though
never having actual physical posses

While the committee favored dras-

Anthracite Producers Association "be
requested" to direct its members to
sell ,ccal only TO regularly established
