Neither General Wood nor Colonel
w. c. Proctor his campaign manager,
support charges of Senator Moses Of
New Hampshire that the national
committee had used ''steam roller"
methods in its contest decisions, Mr..
Mccoy declared.
In calling the committees attention
to the Moses charges Mr.. Mccoy said
he resented them and added:
Charges Held Unfounded.
THE vote of this committee on ev-
cry case has been on the rights and
Justice and not tinged by any personal
preference as to conditions. There is
no basis for Senator Moses statement.
II is unwarranted and Is his own per-
sonal opinion and is not the opinion
either OF General Wood or Colonel
Proctor"
Mccoy said he had been urging
General Woods nomination for more
than a year and would continue his
support but deplored the Moses
charge.
Chairman Hays did not join in the
discussion except to interject that
there appeared to be perfect har-
mony' in the committee.

The president declared that he had

The text of the presidents telegram
follows;
81 received your telegram of June 8.
You call my attention to matter rEat
presented to the present congress in
A special message delivered at Joint
session of the two houses August g.,
1919. In nine months this congress
has. however, taken no important
remedial action with respect to the
problem of the cost of living on the
lines indicated in that address or any
line. Not only has the present con-
gress failed to deal directly with the
cost of living but 1t has failed even to
given serious consideration to the urg-
ent appeal oft-repeated by me and
by the secretaries of the treasury, to
revise the tax law as which in their
present form are indirectly responsible
in part for the high cost of living.
Sessions Complete Failure.
"The protracted delay in dealing
with the problem Of the railroads, the
problem if the government owned
merchant marine, and other similar
urgent matters, has resulted in unnec-
essary burdens upon the public treas
ury and ultimately in legislation so
unsatisfactory that | could accept it,
if at all, only because | despaired of
anything better, The present congress
mas not only prevented the conclusion
Of peace in Europe but has failed to
present any constructive plan for deal
ing with the deplorable conditions
there, the continuance of which can
only reflect upon us.
In the light of the record of the
present congress, have no reason
whatever to hope that its continuance
In session would result in constructive
measures for the relief of the eco
nOmic conditions to which you call at
tntion 1t must be evident to all rnat
the dominating MOVE which has actu-
ated this congress is political expedi-
'ency rather than lofty purpose to serve
the public welfare.

CRITICISM JUSTIFIED

That Samuel Gompers has ample reason for ms attack on the American Woolen Company for closing down it's plants apparent from current mar ket events that go long ways toward disprovlns the truth that corporations publicly stated cause for the shut dowr When the company first began to close its plants several days ago it announced that the action caused by cancellations Of or ders for cloth. .den in the trade, however, almost unanimously deny that there have been any cancel lations and current quotations manufactured ar tices of wooden cloth seem to bear them out ana contradict the woolen goods trusts statement As sociations of producers of mems and womens cloth ing are already making announcements that fall prices will be higher than at present and give as the reason therefor that they are unable to, obtain an adequate supply of wooens to take care of their trade demands.

One must look further to find the real reason for the corporations action It is not necessary far to discover possible and, in deed, probable causes
 It has not long that people have for gotten it that the American Woolen Company es- capped prosecution by ruling from the bench that cloth is clothing within the meaning of the Lever Act carefully prepared against the company by agents of the Department of Justice wrecked this techncality. It is not lmpos- sible that the closing down of the New England mills and the consequent throwing out of employ ment of of thousands of workers was inspired by dsire up the and intended by the corporation a warning against further interfer- cree. But far powerful consideration is the purpose alleged by the American Designers Assocla- tion which is a scarcity and thus check the tendency everywhere manifested of late to re- duce the cost of clothing
 The real reason for its action has not been ad- mtted by the company. That much is evident, There is a demand for woolens beyond the power of the mills to supply. The shutting off of the source of supply higher prices which must ulti- mately of the purses of consumers or force them to practice sef-denal unwarranted de- gree. The adoption of such policy by the wool trust is reprehensbe the recent sporadic out law strikes for which labor roundly denounced And under the circumstances, Mr. Gompers is jus- tified in severely crtieising the company guilty of such tactics

HOPE FOR MEXICO

In the surrender of Francisco Villa, Mexicos su- bandit, is probably of President De La Huer- ta's most striking victories since the beginning of his regime. In accomplishing the unconditional surrender Villa he has undoubtedly taken great step toward stabilizing Northern Mexico
 Villas rebellious activities in the Mexican States just south of the Rio Grande have not only resulted disasterousy peace in the entire nation but have kept it in hot water with the United States and produced friction between the two governments that at times has almost amounted to an open rupture of friendly relations The inability of former Mexican administrations to with Villa and his bandit followers has been large factor in their downfall
 By eliminating Villa factor in the situation, especially without yielding in any degree to his de- mands and in sticking to its utimatum to him that he give himself up without terms the Huerta ad- minstration has shown admirable firmness. It leads to the belief that it will not weakly yield to other
 troublesome clements affecting internal Mexican af- fairs and will build up confidence in its sincerity to place it's international relations in equitable basis.
 Shortly after assuming office Provisional Pres
 dent of Mexico De La Huerta assured newspaper men representing American publications that here after American interests and citizens in Mexico would get square deal and adequate protection. He also declared that his country would recognize all of her legal obligations There and is to Goubt his sincerity in these matters but there has been for doubtng his ability to make good his promises His victory Villa, however, removes to considerable extent these doubts.
 The United States honestly desires to her neighbor to the south prosper and thrive under a strong administration that will bring to it all the fruits of Mexico is rich in potential and only needs constructive work a comprehen- sive scale to build to position of prominence in the industrial world of the Western hemisphere All students of that country that this can not be accomplished in a single year, nor even in a decade. but the provisional government seems to l have made real start in the right direction. If it continues to deal with troublesome questions as it has dealt with Villa, it is but question time until 1t given full cordial recognition by it's American neghbors both North and South.
