Buffalo Labor Councils
Records Are Seized
Lockwood Investigators Also
Get Employers Books for
an Inquiry Starting Tuesday


BUFFALO, N. Y, June 12.-Minutes,
books and contracts dating back to
1916 pertaining to building matters
have been seized from the Central La
bor Council of Buffalo by investigators
for the Lockwood Legislative commit
tee, it was learned to-day. George w.
Bork, secretary of the council, said he
had willingly surrendered the docu-
ments last Wednesday and courted a
full investigation Of labor dealings
here.
Labor leaders manifested their con-
Germ, however. in a series of confer
ences, after which they expressd per-
feet Willingness to aid the committee.
"Our fear is that the committee will
skim the surface of the other side
and fail to delve deeply into the activi-
ties of the employers organizations, )"
said Henry Streifer, an organizer
prominent in local labor affairs, after
yesterdays meeting. "If the investi-
cation is perfectly fair and all hands
are showing there will surely be some
interesting Developments"
1t was learned tonight that similar
records have been obtained from the
Buffalo Builders Association Exchange,
the Master Plumbers Association and
practically every other building trades
body in this city.
George R. Brennan, associate counsel
Of the committee, announced tonight
that Samuel Untermyer, chief counsel,
would arrive tomorrow to take charge
of the four-day investigation which
starts Tuesday.

FROM a STAFF Carrosnonaant

ROSLYN, l.. L., June IL. Georges
Carpenter. hero of many military and
pugilistic fights. took his stand in a
feminine ring this afternoon. He Jared
like Roman gladiator Of old, and all
but bore away laurels on his brow.
Roses. carnations and kisses were

fashion.
The young Frenchman, who has de-
fed death in the air and won cham
plonshlps in the ring, showed strong
symptoms OF stage fright He blushed.
was embarrassed as a schoolboy at a
party, rumpled his sleek fair hair dis
trsctedly, jerked his eyebrows nerv-
ously. But through it all he smiled
nus intriguing smile, and people
laughed and cheered and loved him.
All for Milk Fund
given here on behalf of the Free Milk
for Italy Fund. 1t was held in the
beautiful Italian grounds of the Villa
Marina, the home Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank c.. Henderson. Carpenter was
the lion of the afternoon. Crowds
were present to see him. From the
moment he drove up with Francois
Deschamps, his manager, he was
hemmed in on all sides by pretty girls
in summery muslins and rainbow rib
bons. Slender and handsome in his
blue and white hannels, he looked
more like a matinee idol than hero
of the ring. But he did not take
kindly to adulation. 1t fustered him.
Standing under the tricolor the
"Marsellaise" was sung in his honor
imm ediately upon his arrival in the
grounds. Beside him were Mrs. John
Adams Drake and Mrs. Frank C. Hem
derson, hostesses Of the afternoon. AS
soon as the moving picture men began
to operate Georges turned with a
broad smile to Mrs. Drake and boldly
exclaimed in his best American slang:
"Some picture Make 'em grind"
Then the rose and the kiss were be-
slowed upon him by Sigried Hillqust,
the Swedish Mary Pickford." She was
dressed in her native costume and was
lovely to look at, and Georges did not
seem to mind being kissed as much as
he did responding to all the pretty
speeches that were made to him. More
flowers came his way until his button
hole and his hands and his hat were
somewhat overladen with bouquets and
he had to beg the pretty flower girls to
be less generous.
His embarrassment was intensified
when girl approached him with a
program and asked him to buy it. He
dived into all his pockets but in getting
into his f1annels he had evidently forgot
ten to transfer his roll Of bills. He
could not find a nickle. Some one stand

ing nearby came to his rescue and gave
him dollar.
Finally he sought a secluded corner
Of the stairs leading up to the villa and
thought he was hidden and in for a quiet
time. Inside of two minutes, however,
the organdie mob was massed on the
steps and Georges had to put on his
smile over and over again until it must
have become mechanical Right at his
feet sat Gida Gray, brilliant as para
quet in flaming orange bathing suit
with green dragons. Now and again
she shimmied her restless shoulder and
addressed remark to the champion,
who smiled and nodded and said nothing.
The bathing suit was auctioned off
after Gilda had paraded and shimmied
in its silken folds The bidding was
vivacious under Mrs. Henderson's guild
ing, and ended at $500, with Mr.. Hen
derson the winner.
The kiss that Georges got for moth
ing from Sigfried Hillquist was dupli-
Gated for $500 at the auction booth. con-
Quoted by Julius Fleischmann. There
the pretty Swedish girl offered to kiss
the man who would bid highest for the
privilege. She lived up to her agree
ment. Mr.. Henderson was again the ton
bidder.

In. the Boulevard des Italiens the
carnival spirit reigned. Mrs. Edward

told fortunes. There were prohibition

There were boxing contests between

Of the ring, however.
Several thousand dollars were added
to the fund for milk for the starving

garden party. On the committee that

Reform Edict
Explanation Is Made Resist
ing of Federation's Order
Will Revoke Charter of
Building Trades Council
Untermyer Point Carried
Reorganization Will Take
Control Of Workers Out
of Hands of Employers

Orders of the American Federation
II Labor convention at Denver calling
Tor an immediate reorganization of the
Building Trades Council here, the body
formerly ruled by Robert p. Brindell,
nave caused great stir among the ele-
ment reputed to be continuing the
labor czar's power in the organization.
There were intimations yesterday that
these persons would not release their
grip without fight.
The move, too, it was pointed out,
comes as blow to the Building Trades
Employers Association, whose rela-
tions and agreements with the coun-
Gil, it was brought out in testimony
before the Lockwood committee, were
declared to have afforded Brindell the
power that enabled him to carry ON the
extortionate operations which finally
landed him in Sing Sing.
Charter To Be Revoked
The refusal of the council to put
into. effect the reforms which John
Donlin, head of the Building Trades
Department of the A. f. of L., has been
instructed to introduce will result in
the revocation of its charter and the
organization of another council to sup
plant it. AS adherents of the Brindell
faction are emphatic in their stand
against any reform, labor war of gi-
gantlc proportions may result.
The rem odeling of the council is ex-
pected to nullify the agreements exist
ing between that body and the Building
Trades Employers Association, and
thus break the domination which the
employers association is said to have
exercised over the building industry
through its control Of the labor mar
ket.
There are others who say that the
house-cleaning will be welcomed by the
bulk of the membership of the council,
as large section of the organization
was opposed to the BrindeIl regime,
but was helpless in the face of the
atter's strong-arm methods,
Samuel Untermyer, the Lockwood
committees chief counsel, whose con-
slant attacks upon the present form of
the council are mainly responsible for
the proposed overhauling, was elated
Yesterday when told Of the action Of
the Denver convention.
IRquiry to Proceed
The most Objectionable feature of
the Building Trades Council rules is
said to be the regulation requiring
membership unions to elect delegates
for three years instead of six months,
as is the case among other such organi-
cations, with the stipulation that all
such delegates must be paid salary of
S75 a week.
1t was the contention of Philip
zausner secretary of the district coun-
Gil of the Brotherhood of Painters,
Decorators and Paperhangers, that this
deprived certain unions of representa-
ton in the council. Zausner held that
the council had no right to dictate
what salary should be paid these rep
resentatives. The three-year rule, too,
he held, was employed mainly to per-
petuate Brindell's power.
Members of the Lockwood commit
tee and its counsel were busy yester-
day preparing for their special inquiry
at Buffalo tomorrow. Mr.. Untermyer
will leave for Buffalo with several
members of the committee tonight

OF all those who had heard the
dreadful story of the Red Terror
on the Great Mountain as told by
King Eagle, and how the careless
ness of a man had started it, Mother
Bear and Mrs. Lightfoot were the
only ones who really shared in the
sadness of King Eagle and Mrs.
Eagle. You see, none of the
others had lived on the Great Noun
tain. But Mother Bear had and so
had Mrs. Lightfoot. Both had come
down to the Green Forest from the
Great Mountain and it happened that

the Red Terror had eaten every tree
and bush and vine and plant.
And as they heard how all the
beautiful places they had loved so
well, the places that once had been
home to them, had been destroyed by
the Red Terror, which, as of course
you know, is fire, they were filled
with a sorrow quite equal to that
OF King Eagle. In their hearts, way
Gown deep, they had thought of some
Gay going back there. Now they
knew chat they never would. There
WAS nothlng to go back to but ter
rlote nlackeped waste where for a
long time there could be no living
thing.
They still had the beautiful Green
Forest, but supposing the Red Terror
should come down there? And King
Eagie had said it might if the wind
should change. So sorrow over what
mad happened was replaced by fear Of
Wnat might happen, and in this fear

the whole the people are not justly
treated or~adequately represented. The
machinery of legislation has grown
complicated. The interests are always
