TRY To NULL|FY
HOUSE s ACTION
Vote, AZ to "a, to Expunge
From the Journal All Rec
ord of Ratification of the
Federal Amendment.
WILL NOT CONCUR IN
THE SENATE'S ACTION
Gov. Roberts WithhoIdS Com
nlent, Except to Say the
Situation Must Be Handled
In a Legal Manner.

| Nashville, Aug. 31.--The Ten
nessee house of representatives,
with quorum present for the
| first time since August 20, ex-
plunged from its journal today all
record of ratification of the fed
eral suffrage amendment, and vot-
ed, AZ to "a, with 20 not voting,
to non-concur in the action of the
senate in ratifying the amend
ment.
Governor Roberts, upon being
notified of the houses action, de-
clined to make any statement other
than to say that the situation
could only be dealt with in le-
| gal manner and was in the hands
of Attorney General Thompson.
The latter, in q letter read on the
house floor during discussion of
the matter of reconsidering the
vote, expressed the opinion that
consideration of the resolution
of ratificP ton was impossible since
the house already had adopted it
land Governor Roberts had certi-
fled to Secretary of State Colby
this action by both house and
senate.
State officials and members of
the legislature expressed tie belief
tonight that legality or il'egality
of the ratification would be de-
cided upon the record certified to
Washington by Governor Roberts
and not on the. action taken to-
day.
Ants i'm the Majority.
Shortly after the house coa-
vened it became evident that the
i-ratificationists, majority Of
whom have been in Alabama on
a filibuster for more than a week,
We're in the majority, through
failure of several OF the suffrage
members to arrive in time. With
clock-like program, the antis pro-
ceeded to put through their plan
of attempting to undo what was
done August 81, when ratification
was accomplished.
The first step was the motion to
eXpunge from the journal of that |
day all reference to the proceed |
ings upon the suffrage ratification |
resolution. After this was car
ried, AZ to 81, with six not voting, |
motion was made and carried that |
a certified copy of the resolution, |
the original of which is in the
hands of the senate, be spread |
upon the journal.
Riddick Is Overruled.
Representative Riddick, floor
leader of the ratificationists, made |
the point of order that the reso- I
luton was out of the hands of the |
house and now q part of the fed
eral constitution through proclaim
alton of Secretary Colby. He was
overruled by Speaker Walker.
The house by viva voce vote
then adopted a motion to recon-
slider its previous action upon the
resolution. Motion then was made
and carried to non-concur in the
action of the senate in ratifying the
resolution.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. would not
state tonight whether they expect II
to make an effort to have the sem
ate, which voted to ratify, twenty
five to four, reverse its action.

CAPITAL OF ARMENIAN
 REPUBLIC EVACUATED

New York, Nov. 15.-Erivan, capital of the Armenian republic has been eyacu ated, communications between the great railway Junction of AlexandropoI and T1fiis, capital of Georgia, have been in- definitely cut, completely isolating Ar menia from the outside world, and the road from Ardahan to Ardanautch is damned with Armenian women and chill dren fleeing down the valley of the Tcho- rok river towards Batum, according to cable despatches received by the head quarters of the Near East Relief here to- day.
 At the same time reports were receiv- ed that Mustapha Renal Pasha. in per- son, at the head of the Turkish nation allst forces operating against Armenia has ordered the Georgian government to eVacuate Batum, on the Black Sea and that the Georgian army has been mo- bilized to defend that port
 Charles V. Vickrey, general secretary or the Near East Relief, said today that part at least of the needs of the situa- ton in the Caucasus had already been anticipated by the Near East Relief and that cargoes were now on the seas bound Tor Batum consisting of 5,813,OOO cases ana bales Of old clothing and shoes; B.. z10 bags Of rice; 1880 bags of sugar and 6ZO tons of soap and other supplies.

WOULD ADJUST DIFFERING
 BETWEEN CAPITAL AND LABOR

Washington, Nov. 15.-The executive council of the American Federation of Labor continued here today its discus sion, understood to be largely devoted 10 seeking methods by which differences be- tween labor and capital may be adjusted peacefully. There was no indication of what progress was being made, however, except that it was stated officially the meeting would probably continue several days. All sessions are executive and no statement Of the matters under considera- ton has been given out.
 Suggestions that the federation planned to select some widely known man to act as it's int : lediary with capital in future
 labor controversies were characterized by officials as absurd" Those who would discuss the suggestions, which named
 Herbert Hoover, former federal food ad-
 ministrator, as the man likely to be se- lected, declared the report baseless. Neither MT. Hoover. nor any other man outside of the president of the i United States was in a position to ren- der beneficial services in such capacity, one official of the federation asserted It was recalled, however. that it was stated at federation headquarters last week that MT. Hoover was expected to confer with
 the executive council during its session and improve working conditions in vari- ous industries through cooperation fo | labor officials and scientists.
 There were reports at federation head quarters tonight that the executive coun- i cil had under consideration legislation af- l fecting the adjustment of disputes which
 1t would urge labor's friends in congress | in congress to push Members of the
 council refused comment, however, and there was no surface indication that any definite steps had been taken in that di- 1 rection.

resign if it is beaten in the elections is considered here as a significant indication of the results of the balloting. The Eeni- zelist organs are gloomy, their editors tacitlly admitting that the premier will not have a majority even if he is not defeated.
 The opposition claims the election of two hundred deputies. with majority in ancient Greece.
 It is rumored that if Venizelos goes down to defeat the British will prevent the landing, of. former King Constantine, declaring that his return to power is i'm possible. s
 The opposition's surprising vote is at tributed in some quarters to overconfi- dence ons the part of the Venizelists, the premier's absence from Greece during part of the campaign and his interest in foreign affairs, as we'll as to the silent organization of the Gounarists. It was today that many members of the opposi- ton made their appearance, wearing the olive branch, the emblem of the opposi- tion.
 Premier Venizelos, amid all tse turmoil, spent Sunday night sleeping peacefully.

 Mir. Thorne explained that prior to the war European supplies of goat and camel hair were drawn on for filter pur- poses, but that when this source was cut off the industry he represented turned to China. where the fall of the Manchu dynasty was followed by abolishment of the edict directing Chinese subjects to wear queues. The Houston Company. which is joined by the Southern Cotton Seed oil Crushers' Association, chief users of hair cloth filters. in the peti- ton. has accumulated s00.oo0 pounds of Chinese hair. the equivalent of the former piGtails of 2.io0,0O0 Chinese, and now seeks carload rates to move 1t north for the consumers. nineteen carloads al. ready having been ordered and the pros- poets being for sixty more to move dur ing next year.

EVENTS PRECEDING THE
 EVACUATION or SEBASToPOL

Constantinople Nov 1S.-M. Krivochin, premier in the government or GeneraI Wrangel, talking to the American news paper correspondents today. made an ap- peal for American aid for the refugees from southern Russia.
 First" said M. krivochin, permit me to express heartfelt gratitude to the American people and the. American Reo Cross for their charitable work on behalf of the wounded and sick Russian refu- gees. The military disaster does not mean that there is no further necessity to render assistance. Aid now IS more than ever a matter of life and death to the tens of thousands of unfortunate and utterly destitute refugees from the most cruel tyranny the world ever has known. -- General Wrangers army has been pled white. Although inferior in numbers, II held position after position against the overwhelming weight of the Reds.
 "The situation became extremely crit ical swhen General Wrangel was isolated, especially after the Polish armistice, when
 he supported the brunt of the Red on- slaughts. We expected Perekop to hold out, but the premature frost proved a
 powerful ally to our enemy. Wrangel positions were defended by frostbitten, wounded and exhausted soldiers, the dead
 were piled in heaps, the cruel artillery snatching nearly all the commanders. Despite their high morale, there is a limit to hurnan force which has now been reached.
 ."Crimca, the last strip of Russia where the principles of truth, liberty and free dom prevailed, is being evacuated. The wounded, the children, the women and the sick will be evacuated first, because If left behind, their fate at the hands of the bolsheviki would be frightful Al though saved from the Red barbarities they are bound for an unknown destina- ton, where they will be without the means of support in a strange country We do not know where they can find refuge we can only beg help. General
 Wrangel in his last order pointed out the
 real situation to all who desired to em-
 bark on the ships He not only did not advise them to go but warned them of
 the danger of going 10 an unknown destl- nation. The good people of the civilized
 world will not permit the destruction of peoples who are not responsible for the events. except through their repudiatior of atrocious barbarism. Our hopes will not be in vain that the powerful Ameri- can people are in position to help and know how.
 s,"L am aware that America and the newiy-elected president are opposed to in terXention in European politics. l an sure, however, of their readiness to con- tribute to philanthropic works not con l nected with politics. Wherever there is
 misery and calamity it is impossible not
 to meet the flag of tne American Rec
 Cross.
 we appeal to the noble American peo pie to stretch out a helping hand to tht -uumberiess unfortunates who lost every | thing and are embarking now on the colo high seas, going God knows where. Oul 1 only hope is .sn the American people, who
 surely will not be deaf to this piteou; appeal and will earn the undying grati tude of the Russian people"
