ALLEGE GREAT CONSPIRACY
BY the Associated Press

New York, Oct. 22.-The joint lcgis
lative committee Investigating the al
legged building trust can perform no
greater service for legitimate organized
labor than that of exposing, Furnishing
and ejecting from its councils the wolves
aud vultures who have been fattcning OH
its vitals."
This statement was made today Mt
the continuation of the inquiry by
Samuel Untermyer. committee counsel
in branding as "a tissue of wicked
falsehoods, cunningly calculated to mis-
lead the public" statements issued at
the close Of yesterdays hearing. at
which witnesses testified that q S25. .00O
bribe had been paid to end building
trade strike here. One of the post :
session statements to which Mr.. Tn
termyer took exception was to the effect
that organized labor was being
framed
ut will be a sorry day for organ
lied labor" said Mr.. Untermycr.
when every exposed crook, operating
under the shield of organized labor. can
cover his tracks and rally the ranks OF
labor to his support by the hypocriticaI
cry that the exposure of his stahs in
the back Of labor are an attack on the
institution that we are trying to rescue
from his sordid clutches"
Proof of Conspiracy Promised
Mr.. Untermyer said the legitimate
elements Of organized labor were ac-
lively supporting, encouraging and as
sisting his efforts to bring out the facts.
He outlined the general trend of proof

Welliver. a Washington newspaper cor
respondent, now acting as publicity man
for Senator Harding, as the most likely
possibility for the secretarial berth In
the event Of Harding's election.
II Governor Cox is elected, his pres
ent secretary, Charles Morris, is con :
sidered the most available man for the
post.
All three Of these individuals are
newspaper men, as are their respective
employers.
Starek has combined Ohio and Wash q.
ington newspaper experience and knows
the ins and outs of politics in both
state and nation. He came here orig :
inally as correspondent for the Cincin-
natl Leader. Prior to that he was re-
porter for the same publication. Event
ually he left the Leader to become
Washington correspondent for the Gin
cinnati Enquirer, with which he re-
mained for several years. From here
he went to New York, where he is un-
derstood to have become associated with
important financial interests. He was
righthand man for the late John X. Nc
Lean, owner of the Cincinnati En-. :.
auirer and Washington Post, for several
years and wrote extensively on national
pOlltlCS during tne perlou ol Ills heMo-
paper connections.
lie has been associated with Senator
Harding since the latter loomed on the
presidential horizon. and is one of the
individuals in whose judgment and ad :
vice the Republican nominee places much
reliance.
Stareks brother, Charles Starek, Is
the man who, rs n national bank exam
iner, turned up the famous Cassie Chad
wick case and uncovered the evidence
which sent her to the penitentiary.
Later he was assigned by the Depart. =.
ment Of Justice to investigate the beef
trust, and his investigation led to the
first prosecution of the Chicago packers.

70 the White House stall. II is Thought
here. although 1t is accepted he eau snip
into an attractive berth in the new ad-
ministration IL he wants to--nnd Hard
ing wins. He has been Washington
correspondent for a number OF Ameri-
ci II and European newspapers and was
one of the best known members OF the
newspaper fraternity here when he OBJ
tained a leave OF absence to go with
Senator Harding for the campaign.
Little is known here of Morris, who
has been secretary to Governor Cox
for the last four years at Columbus and
before that was engaged in newspaper
and publicity work in Ohio. He is SAID
by those who know him to be qualihcd
for the White House post. however.
and Governor Cox unquestionably re-
poses much confidence in him.

which will be offered the committee by
its counsel, and asserted il would show
banding together among the material
men, This combination, he said, Is
composed of thirty two separate lines
and reaches from the manufacturer Of
building material down to the retailer.
These different associations, he said,
are banded together under the head of
the. Building Material Employers As
sociation. .
I'VE purpose to show that in many
instances labor has been dragnetted into
the Building Trades Council and that
employers also have been forced into
certain of these associations by the re-
lation that exists between the Building
Trades Council and the Building Trades
Employers Association.
This relation he described as one of
"you tickle me and l tickle you."

that "the little small change that was

spread that until it has been checked
and punished! building operations In
the city of New York are simply i'm
possible"
When Mr.. Untermyer asked II Robert
r. Brindell, president of the Building
Trades Council, was present, there
was no answer. Chairman Lockood de.
clined to accept statement on behalf
of Brindell from John J. O'Connor, his
counsel. until O'Connor took the stand
for cross examination.
I. O'Connor declined to do this and
challenged the committee to force him
to testify. He said Mr.. Untermyer had
made false and malicious statement
10 the committee regarding his inter.
view with newspaper men, and added
he stood on his constitutional rights In
refusing to be subjected to examination,
which he characterized rs a Russian
inquisition."

Washington, Oct. 22.-As Secretary

hcial circles is turning to his successor,
the man who will be secretary to the
Iaext President Of the United States.
This individual. whoever he may be,
will have a job more difficult in many
ways than that Of his chief. He must

the martyred McKinley's time the Pres

was President McKinleys intention
when he asked Congress to make this
change to later on raise the secretary
