ALSACE SOCIALISTS
OPPOSE BOLSHEVIKI

Strasbourg. March 1.-The Ma

voted to refuse adhesion to the
Third Internationale of the Russian
Bolsheviki. This body is sponsored
by Premier Nikolai Lenine.

As to the Monroe doctrine, the Re-
publicans insist on reservation which
says, first, that the Monroe doctrine is
not to be submitted to the inquiry. discus
sion or decision of the tribunals of the
league; second that it is completely be-
yond the jurisdiction of the league for
consideration or action; and third. that
it is solely for the definition and enforce
ment Of the United States
This is to say the same thing in three
different forms. The Democrats wish to
leave out the last form and repeat the
same idea twice only, while the Re-
publicans wish to state it three times.

IS NEARING ITS END
Leaders Expect to Order Strikers

Nv Associated Press to Every Evenfns

by Associated Press to Every Evenfn9
Haxleton, Pa, Sept l4.-Dcflnite
action on policy toward ending the
vacation" strike Of mine workers in the
anthracite coal region WAS expected here
today when the miners policy committee
resumed its session. Indications were that
the deadlock which resulted in the com
mittee's adjournment yesterday would be
broken by the acceptance OF some definite
plan.
Among the proposals. to be presented to
the committee today was one to order the
miners back to work and renew the re-
quest upon President Wilson for the re-
opening of the award of the Presidential
wage commission. -
Union officials predicted the proposition
would be adopted despite the opposition
of the insurgent elements
Representatives Of Districts 9 and de-
clared, however, that the stand taken yes
terday in demanding definite guarantee
that President Wilson would reopen the
award before ordering the miners back to
work was unchanged. They said they de-
sire TO have committee go to Washington
to confer with President Wilson or Seere-
tary of Labor Wilson before issuing any
order to the "vacationists."
Philip Murray. international vice-presl-
dent, and representatives OF District l.
asserted that they would not quit the
meetings until they had put through their
policy to order the men back to work In
accordance with the agreement signed al

NEWSPAPERS ARE FAIR
SAYS PACKERS HEAD
Swift Says They Were Imposed
on by Foes of Meat
Industry.
nv Associated Press to Every Evening

Atlantic City, Sept. 14.-Addressing
this mornings session OF the Institute OF
American packers here G.. +. Swift, Jr.,
of Chicago, chairman of the Committee
on Public Relations. gave the newspapers
n clean bill of health, and admitted that
when news values were considered the
papers had been justified In printing
all they had concerning the packers.
In his report MIR. Swift declared that
"the newspapers of the country are iair,
despite the fact that nearly all OF them
have published reams of absurditics and
statements not in accord with the facts
concerning the packing industry"
II know that In testifying to the fair
ness of American newspapers" continued
MIR. Swift, 81 may incur the dIspleasure
of some of YOU men who have been the
victims of the general misrepresentation
of the packing industry which has been
current for the last few years. None OF
YOU. however, has been wronged more
than the company with which l am as
soclatcd.
"But in directing the public relations
of this, the largest industry in the United
States, / have learned much of the spirit
of our newspapers, and also of the dit
fcultv that surrounds the gathering and
printing of all the news of the world
each day.
.'When our critics started their sys-
tematic campaign of misrepresentation,
the packing industry through the SANDER
Gus stories which were sent broadcast, L
confess | thought the newspapers pre-
ferred to print such unfair statements.
| have learned since that newspaper may
be truthful when it prints something that
is unfair. For example, if some govern
ment agency should issue sensational,
unfounded statement, attacking the pack
ers industry, the primary duty of the
newspaper would be not TO examine the
truth or falsity of the statement and give
its conclusions but rather to report the
statement as 1t Is gwen.
The newspaper In its columns is first OF
all a record-not judge. But it always
has the obligation of giving the injured
party an opportunity to state his side OF
the case.
''One regrettable feature, however, is
the fact that the space gwen to corrections
is usually less than accorded to unjust
accus ations, but this is largely because
violent criticism is better news than care
ful and complete refutation of it. 1t Is also
due, in some degree to the paper very
proper desire TO have its new stories
stand up and especially if the stories are
exclusive"

SKYSCRAPER WINDOWS
WASHED BY A SMALL
ARMY IN CHICAGO
tRy Associated Press,


CHICAGO, Dec. 17.-Practically all
the windows of Chicago's sykscrapers
are cleaned by small body of men
225--who are members of the Chicago
Window Washers Union, according to
William McDade, business agent for
the organization. The men work on
d weekly basis, eight hours consti-
tuting days work When conditions
make outside work impossible, the
men are employed on the inside.
The contract for cleaning the win
Gows is given to contracting COM
panies. These companies bid on the
work and when the bids are accepted
they furnish the men from the union.
They also furnish all material used in
washing the windows, SUCH as work
ing harness for the washers, pals,
sponges. channels, etc. In fact they
supply everything except the water
Every possible safety device known to
the trade is employed by the union to
protect its men from accidents.
The number of men killed. doing this
kind of work has been greatly lessen
ed through the efforts of the union,
Mr.. McDade said. The contractors
also have done much to safeguard the
pedestrians below. In the past year,
the union lost only one man by death,
while the number of accidents to its
members has shown a big decrease.
The average union washer will
clean about 100 windows q day the
business agent said, as this is what
the contracting companies figure on
when giving their estimate on the
work aat
The membership of the union is
made up OF about 40 per cent Amer
leans, so per cent Polish while the
other 10 per. cent is divided among
other nationalities. About two-thirds
of the members OF the union are
married men.
