New arty Formed
 by French Recently

"a Paris, June 17.-A new party re- gently formed in the chamber of de- puties, comprising 260 votes, is one which it is expected any future premier will have to take into ac- count in preserving his majority in the chamber. Charles c. A. Jon mart, senator from Pas De Calais, has been elected president. The party represents remnants of the rad ical party and clements of the na- tional block holding seats in the cen ter and right center of the chamber.
 The party's program as outlined by Senator Jonnart in his speech ac- cepting the presidency, includes. a declaration against a dictatorship no matter from what quarter it might come; a policy of reconstruction of France bv unity and hard work; the substitution of the solidarity of the classes for class hatred. and law and order with abolition of the right to strike except for special reasons.

HARDING IS INVERSE TO STAGING 0NE-MAN
 CAMPAIGN, HE SAYS
Nominee Will Hold ImOrtant Conference With Daugh-
 erty Today

Washington, June 17.-In accord with his announced decision against "one man" campaign, Senator Harding, the republican presidential nominee today conferred with var ious party leaders and tomorrow will discuss his plans with Harry M. Daughterty of Columbus, Ohio, his pre-convention campaign manager. At tcmorrow's conference a date for holding the formal notification cere- monies at the nominee's home at Marion, O., is expected to be fixed.
 Senator Harding announced his aversion to a "one man" campaign at his conference with newspaper men today. He declared that all re- publicans looked alike to him and that he would solicit, advice from leaders of all factions in the conduct of his campaign.
 A two hour conference with Sen ator Lodge, republican leader in the senate and Brandege of Connecticut, and also a conference with Senators Moses of New Hampshire, Fall of New Mexico and France of Maryland, all republicans, was held by Sena- totr Harding today. All the con. ferences, pertained it was understood, to campaign plans.
 The conference with MT. Daughter ty is considered important as it will be the first between the senator and his campaign manager since the formers return to Washington and also because it is expected to de- termine details connected with the immediate conduct of the campaign. The senator is expected to decide to- morrow the place where he will go for his vacation and for the numer- ous conferences with party leaders.
 Senator Harding was said to be de- sirious of fixing without delay the date of notification so that arrange ,ments for the ceremonies can be started at once. The nominee's home town, it was explained, must be given lplenty of notice as it is not ade- quately prepared at present for the handling of such an event.
 Preparation of the speech of ac- ceptance is expected to be sub feet of discussion with MT. Daugh- erty. Senator Harding today also received number of callers. His office continued to be swamped with congratulatory letters anod tele- grams.

CASE OF PITCHER SMITH THREATENS
 FIGHT IN LEAGUE
Frank Refuses to Play Little Rock Because of His
 Presence

Atlanta, Ga, June 17.-Charlic Frank, manager of the Atlanta base ball club of the Southern association, today closed his park and refused to play the game scheduled with the Lit tie Rock club of the association. be- cause he objected to the presence of Pitcher Casey Smith on the visiting team.
 Whether the games scheduled be- tween the two teams tomorrow and Saturday will be played was undecided tonight. Officials of the two clubs asserted intentions of maintaining their respective stands regarding Smith.
 Umpres Kerin and Roth, who went to the ball park stated tonight that the game of today stood as mot play ed," and was not forfeited to the Lit tie Rock club. The matter will have to be settled by the directors of the Southern association, the umpires stated.
 Advices received here tonight were that A. J. Heineman, president of the New Orleans club, had wired President U D. Martin of the association at Memphis, asking him to call special session of the directors.
 President Allen and Manager Fiber field of the Little Rock club said to- night that if anyone would prefer charges against Smith, who with Pitcher Tom Seaton, was let out by the San Francisco team of the Pacific Coast league on grounds of "unsports- manlike conduct" they would make no attempt to play either man until a hearing was held. This they said would permit the game to be played tomorrow. Smith and Seaton, it was said, are willing to sign affidavits that regardless of how the investiga- tion turned out as regards them, fney would take no steps to seek personal damages from anyone instigating the investigation.
 After being let out by the San Francisco club the two men signed as free agents with Little Rock. Ap- proval of Smiths contract, the first presented, was Withheld by President Martin until a court order was issued by Judge J. E. Mccall of the federal court of appeals.
 San Francisco, June 17.-Casey Smith and Tom Seaton, former pitch CTS of the San Fraicisco club of the Pacific Coast league reported today as involved in Southern association controversy were dropped month ago from the San Francisco team "fol the good of baseball" Presibent Charles F. Graham of the club an nounced. Their release came during an investigation of alleged gambling at the baseball park, but Graham's statement at the time said they were not directly connected with the gam bling charges.

CRITICISM OF MRS.
 CRITz IS RESENTED
 BY W0MAN'S CLUB
Voice Objection to Personal Attack in Chamber
 Bulletin

Protesting against "the personal na- ture of the attack made upon one of our members, Mrs. Lucy Critz, in the Chamber of Commerce Bulletin ot June 15," the Business and Profes- esional Women's club of Pine Bluff yesterday mailed to newspapers and tc clubs and organizations copies of a resolution adopted by the organiza- tion Tuesday evening.
 The resolution refers to recent criticism of Mrs. Critz appearing in the Bulletin and is as follows:
 Be it resolved, That we, as mem- bers of the Business and Professional Women's club of Pine Bluff, in regu- lar session of June 18th, 1920, do here by voice our objection to the personal nature of the attack made upon one of our members, Mrs. Lucy M. Crtz in the Chamber of Commerce Bulletin for June 18th. Signed:
 s MRS. LILLIAN L. MOHLER,
 MRS L. K. LAND,
 GRACE STROBRIDGE,
 MARJORIE HEPBURN,
 RUTH JEFFCOAT,
 Committee.
 The Bulletin item to which the res olution refers is as follows:
 "At meeting of the recently elect ed county board of education Friday J. P. Alexander was elected president of the board and R. F. Woods of AL theimer secretary and w. P. Keith, the present county superintendent of edu- cation, was reelected for two and a half years, the unexpired term of F. G. May and this closes chapter in our county school affairs that will long remain as black spot in the efforts of our people for good rural schools, when, this board and the vo- ters, condemned the efforts of Mrs Critz, the home economic agent, at tempted to have schol board elected that would make her the county su- perintendent and creating sentiment among our citizens that, caused them to overwhelmingly defeat several ot the most prominent men in the county because of rumor that they favored her election. It was condemnation of her meddling in politics while hold ing government position, which should always requre her undivided attention and interest and which good many people think she is quite wholly neplecting,"

Japan's Balance of
 Trade UnfavOrable

Washington, June 17.-Japan's bal ance of trade for the first ten days of June was livery unfavorable" and the general financial and industrial depression showed no sign of im- provement, said dispatch today to the department of commerce from it's representative at Tokio. The Mogi bank at Yokohoma, which was forced to suspend on May "A. failed to open last Tuesday. The dispatch added that this indicated continued uncertainty in the silk market and the failure of the banks and silk merchants and manufacturers to reach an agreement as to the seeur- ity values of silk.

COMPERS IS BEATEN ASLABOR ENDORSES
 RAILROAD PROPOSAL
Government Ownership Plan He Had Opposed
 Passed
HE CALLED TT STEP
 FOR REINSTATEMENT
Also Over His Protest Salary of Federation President is Raised From $l0,OOO to $12,OOO
 Per Year

Montreal, June 1.-The American Federation of Labor's endorsement to- day of government ownership of the railroads at it's annual convention here, was declared by labor leaders tonight to have been the first genuine defeat Samuel Gompers, it's veteran president, has suffered in years. The final vote was 29,O59 for government ownership and 8,349 against.
 The decisive vote, it is reported. prompted the labor chief to state be- fore the convention late today that he was not quite sure" he would be a candidate for reelection.
 Mr. Gompers fought hard against the convention's action declaring # was step toward the enslavement of the workers as government employees. who he said had been denied many political and economic rights under the past administration. He received only mild ovation.
 The United Mine Workers and the powerful railroad workers organiza tlons combined to bring about Presi- dent Gompers' defeat.
 They had the support of the Ma chinists' union and the metal trades organization, all powerful voting fac tors.
 The Carpenters union and the bull ding trades organization stood loyalty by Gompers, but were overwhelmed.
 After the federation's action the ex- ecutive council whose members SUD- ported MT. Gompers, are said to be placed in an embarrass position. They must take steps to bring about government ownership, which they have opposed, or resign it was stated. Supporters of MT. Gompers declared tonight that they would urge him to retain leadership of the federation and stand up for reelection for the thirty-ninth time
 Raise Salaries.
 Despite the protests and desires of MT. Gompers the convention increased his salary as president from $1O,OOO to $12,000 year.
 In appealing to the delegates not to give him an increase MT. Gompers declared that "$10,0OO is all sufficient for man living in the ordinary modes of life to satisfy him and his needs"
 The salary of Secretary Frank Mor- rson also was increased from $7,5OO to $1O,OO0 year. Organizers wages were increased from $48 to $6O per week and their travelling allowance from $6 to $8 per day. This was de- clared necessary owing to the high cost of living.
 The convention called upon congress to enact necessary legislation to es- tablish the United States employment service as permanent bureau in the department of labor, with ample ap- lpropriations.
 The executive council was instruct ed to render all possible assistance to "abolish present unreasonable speed tests, time measuring. devices and the unreasonable standards of personal efficiency in the postal ser vice."
 The council will aid civil service emplo1es to obtain "the right to a hearing and to appeal from the judg- ment of officials in cases involving demonition or dismssal."
