BRITISH BATTLESHIPS I'M
BOSPHORUS SHOWPASSING
OF THE SLLTAWS POWER

Constantinople, March 20 (by
the Associated Press) The pass
ing of the sultan's power is grimly
evidenced by the long line of Brit
ish dreadnoughts in the Bosphorus,
but it is apparent that most of the
Turks refuse to accept this evil
dence.
The sultan issued an exhortation
to his subjects yesterday to pursue
their usual vocations in peace, re-
gardless of foreign occupation.
Meantime, British warship was
steaming towards Malta carrying
Reouf Bey. and many others of the
nationalist leaders who were sup

tion to the dismemberment of
Turkey and who were taken in a

"The Fight Is On, Says
Samuel GOmperS in An
Article Dealing With the
1920 Political Campaign,
TOO MUCH MONEY AND
POLITICAL GREED NOW
La0or's Right Has Been
Menaced By Many Pre-
sent Holders of Political
Place, Says Chief,


Washington, March u (by the
Associated Press, samuel Com
pers, writing in the current issue
of the American Federationist, as
serts that labor's non partisan po-
litical fight will be aimed particu-
larly at defeat of those candidates
who are enemies of labor"
THE fight is on" the article
said. Labor has no weapon but
the truth. no force but the force of
reason and argument Its appeal
is to the heart and brain Of Ameri-
ca, It's aim is the welfare of the
American nation, the safeguarding
of the American democracy"
Asserting that labor's right had
been "menaced by many present
holders of political place" Mr..
Gompers said the injunction pro-
cess had been abused until II
would scarcely be recognized by
it's originators."
Money greed, political greed
greed for place and power--these
have been among us undoing our
will and striking at our liberties" A"
he said.
Declaring that labor "must con-
tend for fundamentals that apply
to the whole people," Mr.. Gompers
continued:
Labor is not something imper~
sonal. 1t is not like a machine, nor
is it like a corporation. 1t is the
sum total of the lives of all those
who are useful to the world.
Therefore, the interest of labor
in legislation is not limited inter-
est falling between any two given
points.
Congress cannot do a single
thing in which labor is not inter-
ested."

Chicago, March 2l.--The scale Of

lacks courage and patriotism. The
sultan's cabinet threatened to re-
sign, but after several meetings de-
cided to retain office.
The only government in Turkey
which has any power is believed to
be at Angora (215 miles east-south-
east of Constantinople).
Mustapha Kemal and his COM
mittee have the interior of Asia
Minor largely at their mercy.
Communication has been broken
with virtually all of Asiatic Turkey.
The small number of allied
troops in Turkey has made it i'm
possible to afford protection to the
Christian population in the interior
and great uneasiness Is felt for the
welfare workers in Anatolia and
Cilicia, as it is feared the national-
lists will take hostages.

Paris, March 21.-The rejection
of the treaty of Versailles by the

The Figaro attributes to Presi-
dent Wilson lack of clearness in the
solution of the questions of the
SaaTe valley and the left bank of
the Rhine. and says:
But it was singularly difficult,
and in certain points dangerous, to
clash with an authoritative and
dictatorial man, stubborn in his
theology and ready to have re-
course if need be. to demagoglc
passions to break down the resist
ance of governments"

which this newspaper alone of the
morning journals alludes.
Lincoln" it says, had some
cause to complain of British ex-
pressions of sympathy with the
south in the civil war. Here we
have a case that pretty nearly coin
cides, for the British government
stands, if not for union, at least
for common sovereignty in the
United Kingdom. The unity of the
islands under one supreme govern
ment is as important to the British
people as the unity of the United
States was, and is to the American
people"
Reiterating its hostility to the
league of nations and its sympathy
with the senate in rejecting the
of the league, the Morning
Post says:

wry face-for
having wiser men in the senate
than we have in our government"

London, March 22.-The London
Times in a long editorial on the
rejection of the peace treaty by the
United States senate says that the
''rout of President Wilson is for the
time being complete" and ex-
presses fear that the prospect of
the treaty and league of nations
being the leading issue in the COM
ing American presidential cam
paign must be accepted.
ut is a regrettable prospect for
all the world and particularly for
ourselves" says the Times. "None
the less. we adhere to the belief,
which we share with Lord Grey,
that the American people are un-
likely in the long run to withdraw
their influence in world affairs or
to be satisfied with playing only
a small part in the league of ma
tons"
Referring to the warning of its
Washington correspondent that
England in the campaign will be
denounced as the oppressor of Ire
land, Persia, India and Egypt, and
the supporter, together with
France, of the new imperialism"
the Times says:
I'VE have gone through the
same sort of storms before, though
this one promises TO be exception
ally violent, and they have not hurt
us very much"

Berlin, March 81 (by the Asso-
clated Press. 1.-The government of
president Ebert. which left Berlin
@eelS ago when DIR. Wolfgang
Kapp and his reactionary troops
entered the city, is again in power
in the capital. President Ebert and
the members of his ministry
reached here at II o'clock this
morning from Stuttgart, and soon
afterward the order for a state of
intensified siege was withdrawn.
Public services have in a meas
ure been re-established, and it is
hoped that Berlin will soon resume
Its normal activities, though it will
be a long time before the damage,
material and moral, will be re-
paired.
A cabinet council deliberated
throughout the afternoon to deter
mine the steps necessary to bring
Germany back to her position prior
to the revolt, This, it is believed,
VIII require considerable maneu-
Vering and delicate handling, for
the Independent socialists and
workmen are making heavy de-
mands for concessions.
The situation in parts of the
country appears serious, from the
group of industrial centers on the
Rhine and the Ruhr district con-
tinue to come reports of Spartacan
agitation. In several places, par
ticularly the Ruhr district, the
Spartacans are said to be in abso-
lutte control. Here their available
force is estimated at 10000.
Concentrations of loyal govern
ment forces, however, are taking
place and their arrival at the scenes
of disorder is expected to bring
quiet.
While the resignation of Gustave
Noske, minister Of defense, has
been demanded nv the radicals II
is considered probable that he will
retain his post for time at least
in order to restore the confidence
of the Berlin population generally
1t is declared that the new cabi-
net will include active representa-
tives of labor, Carl Rudolph Legien,
president of the federation of trade
unions, being named for chancel-
lor.

President Wilson has selected
William M. Williams, of Montgom-
cry, Ala, as commissioner of in
ternal revenue to succeed Daniel
c. Roper whose resignation takes
effect April /. At present Mr
Williams is solicitor of the depart
ment of agriculture. He practiced
law in Montgomery and New York
city before entering the govern
ment service in 1917. AS COM
missioner of internal revenue, Mr..
Williams will be in charge of the
collection of the income tax and
the enforcement of the Volstead
dry law. In Alabama politics he
has always been friendly to Sena-
tor Underwood, who is known as
a wet.

Coblenz, March II (by the Asso-
ciated Press The Spartacans
gained control of the Ruhr district
today. The Red army took pos
session of Duisburg. Ganbern, Null
beim and Mettmann, west of Elber-
field.
A direct report from Duisberg
says that a soviet government has
been set up there. No private tel
ephone conversations are permitted
except for the procuring of food
and coal
The red army in the Ruhr dis
tricts is reported to have available
a force estimated at 10000 men, all
Of whom probably are armed. The
situation is considered extremely
critical because CT the rapid growth
of the ,eU army and their mobility,
which was displayed in the taking
of Essen. There are about 5000
troops If General Won Waters
command in that vicinity, hut nf
there, i.t.Nn are said to have been
forced to retire across the bound
ary into the broad area.
However there are no further
reports of ,bloodshed and it is be-
lieved the imminent march of the
government forces now being con-
centrated will quickly quiet the re-
gion.
Berlin, March 81 (by the Asso-
ciated Press) The state of siege
in Berlin and province of Brande-
burg was raised Saturday after
noon, it was announced officially
today.
The streets of Berlin for the first
time in a week presented a peace
able aspect today.
The shops are closed. but only
because it is Sunday. Trains are
running but the tramway service
has not been resumed. Most of
the hotel staffs have returned to
work.
A manifesto issued today by the
trade unions advises a resumption
of work now that all grounds for
continuance of the strike have been
removed. 1t adds that the funda-
mental causes of the reactionary
coup d'etat lie in the unnatural
peace of Versailles" radical
amendment of which the manifesto
declares to be necessary.
