Miss Minteri as Jenny deserves
praise: Her pictures in the past year
show how the art of this young &C.

FW'ego Profits to
End Unrest, Urged
West Virginia Governor
Calls on Merchants for
ActiOn to Curb Prices

ATLANTIC CITY, May 11,-Govcrn-
or John ]. Corn of West Virginia told
the joint convention of the American
Hardware Manufacturers Association
and the Southern Hardware Jobbers'
Association here to-day that high
prices are the groundwork Of discon-
tent.
II believe if the great merchants of
this country would make up their
minds to forego profits for three or
four months, and sell the things which
our people must have at cost and n
reasonable commission they would 20
Tar toward knocking the bottom out Of
unrest and discomfort" he declared
II am no alarmist but the man who
has failed to grasp the extent of the
radical movement in this country does
not know all he ought to know. We
have got to get government back to
constitutional grounds, and we have
got to eliminate lot of the socialistic
doctrine and theory running riot
through the Federal government and
some OF our state governments as we'll. "
Major Frederick Payne, of Green
field, Mass, president of the American
Hardware Manufacturers Association,
asserted that the high cost of doing
business was due almost, if not quite
as much to high and unjust taxes as
the high costs Of labor and materials. :"

Sons Of the Rev. John Roach
Straton, pastor Of the Calvary Baptist

The alarm had driven all Of the

Raids Block
Red Plot for
French Revolt
tcentinued from pase one,

failure of the electrical workers to re.
spond to the cali of the federation to
strike this morning and the continued d
operation of tramways, auto buses and
subways gave no impression that any
general strike was in progress. Volun-
teers IN increasing numbers enrolled
as drivers. motormen and conductors.
After the Cabinet meeting Premie,
Milterand explained to the newspaper
correspondents the measures decided
upon. He said:
"The federation has adopted as its
approved purpose during the last few
days the stoppage of work in import
ant corporations, whose activity is es-
pecially necessary to the economic life
of the country. 1t has done this at q
moment when France had vital need to
work and produce.
'lt is not the fault of the general
federation that work was not con-
petely stopped in all the branches to
which it successivelY appealed. 1t was
not to safeguard professional interests,
but for political purpose-to obtain
reform which was poorly defined and
in opposition to the government and
Parliament.
"ln other words, it is this power that
pretends TO put itself against the pub
lie powers and obtain realization OF it's
life of the country by profoundly dis
turbing its habits, needs and interests,
The government does not intend to
affect any of the rights of unionism.
Moreover | am convinced of the neces-
sity of labor organization"
eve shall continue to act along the
lines that we have laid out in our pro-
gram and toward the aims we have set
for ourselves" he said.
The federation replied to the gov
ernment's decision to dissolve it in a
manifesto declaring the governments
action amounts to admission, of the
Importance Of the movement and shows
that the government is "at its wits
end because the federation has legal
existence. Previous governments, it is
pointed out. have tried to bring about
its dissolution, but were obliged to re-
nounce the idea.
The manifesto concludes by firm
ing that the federation will continue
to direct the strike until its ends are
attained. Fresh forces are ready to
enter the struggle, it is declared, and
Will move at the proper time

Proposed Changes Affecting the
Philippines Fought by
Senator Thomas

WASHINGTON, May 11.--Opposition
to the proposed extension Of coastwise
navigation laws to the Philippines con-
tinued in the Senate to-day when con-
sideration of the merchant marine bill
was resumed. AS now drawn the bill
would require coastwise shipping to
be American owned.
Senator Thomas of Colorado, Demo-
crat, said such legislation would pro
woke retaliatory tactics by foreign gov
ernments.
Chairman Jones Of the Commerce
Committee and Senator Calder of New
York, Republican, defended the plan
Senator Jones said that the provi-
sion would make Manila the great dis
tributing center for the Orient and
assure American ships cargoes on home
trips.
Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin, Re-
publican, opposed authorizing such
rates for carrying mails on American
ships as would aid "the development
of a merchant Marine" saying he op-
posed such unlimited powers to grant
subsidies. Senators Jones, Calder and
Underwood, however, disagreed with
