ONE DROWNED, ONE
MISSING AS SUBSEA
R-6 SINKS IN PACIFIC

Los ANGELES. Cal, Sept 27.-onC
drowned and one missing, believed
drowned, was the authentic casualty list
given out today by Rear Admiral Her
man .. Sticknsy, commander Of the Pa
cifc feet train following the mysterious
sinking last night Of the United States
submarine R-6 at San Pedro. The ON
cial list:
Drowned. r. Drefren seaman
Missing Vincent Spaulsberg, cleo
trlcian.
The body Of Drefen was shot out Of
the diving boats coming tower by tho
inrushIng water which hned and sunk
the R-6.
Ho could not swim and in HIS panic
fought off would be rescucrs. according
to witnesses. He went down In the
suction which followed tho last dive OF
the R-6 in the weird circle Of brilliant
light thrown by searchliGhts OF sur
rounding battleshlps.
If Spaulsberg succeeded in "doggin &
down" the watertight doors OF the com
partment In which he was caught when
the submarine sank without warming, he
can live for forty eight hours on the
supply of air In the compartment, Ad-
miral Stickney said.
A report from San Pedro that ten men
were unaccounted for following the dis
aster was discounted by Admiral Stick
ney. He expressed confidence they would
be accounted for when the confusion
over the ships roster is cleared.
One line Of hose has been secured to the
ship to pump out the water. second
line has been connected to carry air in
and raise it TO the surface.
A courst Of inquiry will be convened
to determine the cause of the disaster
and fix responsibility, according to the
train commander
Available reports assign as the cause Of
the sinking the opening of a torpedo tube
by mistake, he said
With two diving crews working at top
speed it will take until tomorrow morn
ing to bring the submarine to the sur
face, accordin to Lieutenant Commander

JOB PARLEY
AVOIDS WAGE
PARINGPHASE
Tactful Manipulation
Required to Evade
Question.
PHELPS ON STAND

WASHINGTON. Sept. 27.-Tactful
manipulation was necessary today TO
prevent the national unemployment
conference from colliding with those
controversial questions which II IS
hopeful Of avoiding, such as wage
reductions and their effect on unem-
plOyment
Roswell Phelps, director OF labor
statistics in Massachusetts, was the
first witness before the committee
that is trying to ascertain the ex-
tent Of unemployment. He said it
has been found in Massachusetts that
the present widespread unemploy-
ment was due not so much to lack
Of work as to the unwillingness of
workers to accept the wages offered.
Unemployment, he said, dated gen
orally from the time hte employers
began reducing wages.
Matthew Vol, the labor member of
the. committee, questioned Phelps closely
concerning his statements that wage re
ductious formed a great factor in unem-
ploymeut, but Phelps stuck by his guns
and VOL desisted from his questioning
with a smile.
HOPES TO AVOID
CONTROVERSY.
Phelps expressed the hope that Con
troversial questions could be avoided
and this was echoed by Henry n Robin
son Of Los Angeles, the chairman.
There is not as much unemployment
now as there was some months ago,
Phelps said. He thought the situation
was growing better
This is Illustrated" he said, by the
fact that last Nay in our public employ

cants FOR every position. There now are
about thirteen.
People have exhausted their resou rces
now and are willing to 90 to work at
wages offered

reduction Of wages:"

SENATORSNOT
S0LID0NPACT
Few Expected to Get
Behind Wilson in
Opposition.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-Despite
the understanding given a n Der
Of Democratic Senators that former
President Woodrow Wilson quietly is
opposing ratification of the German,
Austrian and Hungarian treaties,
Democratic leaders of the Senate
persisted today in their prediction
not more than a dozen on the Demo
cratic side would vote against ratl-
ncation.
Influence Of the former President was
reported to be at work when the entire
Democratic membership OF the Senate
met in secret conference for an exchange
Of views regarding the treaty situation.
1t was not tho purpose Of the con-
ference TO bind the Democratic Senator's
to any party policy Of course respecting
the treaties.
Senator Underwood Of Alabama. Demo
cratic minority leader presided. lie was
seconded by Senator Hitchcock OF
Nebraska, ranking Democratic member or
the Senate Foreign Relations Committee,
who fayors ratification. No definite
action was taken and another meeting
will be held Thursday.
Senator Swanson OF Virginia, another
Democratic member Of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, denied a report
that he had conferred with Mr.. Wilson
regarding the latter's credited opposition
to ratification on the grounds that n
separate peace with the Central Powers
would be betrayal Of this country's as
sociates IN the World War, and that the
terms Of the treaties would give the
United States all the advantages Of the
Versailles Treaty without the assumption
Of any Of It's responsibilities

interest In the growing Senatorial oppo-
