socialist national convention Mon
day endorsed the general strike as a
theory and a powerful weapon of

litical strike TO force repeal or

CONFER WITH McCRAY
ON CANCELLED SALE

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June ~
Representatives of Colgate and COM
pany will confer with Gov. McCray
Tuesday concerning the proposed
cancellation Of the sale of the state
reformatory property at Jefferson
vile TO the company for use as a
manufacturing plant. The tentative
sale of the property was negotiated
some time ago when the reformatory
relocation commission, acting under
the provisions of an act of the last
session of the general assembly, was
intending ito move the institution to
a site in Putnam county. When the
commission definitely decided not to
remove the institution on the ground
that the law is unavoidable, the Col
gate officials were notified that the
deal would be declared off until the
next session Of the legislature.
Colgate officials, however, are re-
luctant to give up their claim on the
property, it is said. A payment Of
$1,000 has been made to the state,
which is now taking the attitude that
the deal was only tentative.

FRELINCHUYSEN BILL

WASHINGTON, June 81. - The
first OF the Frelinghuysen coal bills,
providing for several rates. was at
tackled by Senator Underwood. the
democratic leader. Monday. as an
example OF the old republican idea
Of using the power Of government
TO help one man and hurt another,
and to foster one industry at the ex-
pense OF others"
The bill was unjust, he declared.
and would force domestic users 70
pay $3.50 a ton more for coal in the
winter. This is a serious sum for
the toiler," he added. especially in
these republican times OF soup kitch-
ems. bread lines and unemployment "
Senator Frelinghuysen, sponsor for

hama senator was making a par
tisan and unfair argument and that
the interstate commerce commission
would insure justice in applying
rates.

OPPOSE REDUCTION IN
RATES ON PRODUCTS

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Opposi-
ton TO a reduction in freight rates
on surplus farm products intended
for export is pressed by the inter-
state commerce commission in a let
ter received Monday by Sen. Norris,
republican, of Nebraska, chairman
Of the senate agricultural committee.
The proposed reduction is one of
the provisions of the Norris bill for
the creation Of a 800. 100000 federal
corporation to finance the exporta-
ton of such products.
The commission opposed the pro-
vision on the ground that such a re-
duction would provide preferential
rates" In reply Sen. Norris wrote
the commission that it is high time"
there is a reduction in all freight
rates if both the producer and the
consumer are not to starve to death"
