TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON, May 12.-During a long cross examination before the interstate commerce committee today.
 Julius Kruttschnitt, chairman of the
 board of the Southern Pacific, held
 firmly to the views he had given in
 direct testimony as to the causes of
 the financial plight~of the railroads.
 Expenditures for labor. fixed par
 tially or wholly by government action,
 are to high and must be reduced. he reiterated in reply to questions
 Present revenues affected by recent rate advances are justffiable, he add ed. and must be sustained.
 Arguments and inquiries by sena- tors designed to bring out the views of the witness as to whether lower freight rates might bring the roads more business and increase profits out of smaller tolls. met not the | slightest encouragement. In reply tC the suggestion of Senator Townsend of Michigan that railroads might gair popular favor by dealing with rate reductions and wage reductions at the same time. the witness retorted that ! the railroads are almost in the deatI l throes
 l Senator Poindexter Washington said many complaints were being voiced because Of the slowness of ac- ! ton of the railroad labor board ir deciding complaints and Mir Krutt- schnitt agreed that this was a diff | ferent factor

CHICAGO, May 12.-The national executive committee of the Farmer Labor party after a three-day session made public statement today de- claring that there was no difference between the Republican and Demo- cratic parties and that the only. .peaceable remedy for the workers is to supplement the efforts Of the trade unio1E, farmer organizations and CO., operative societies by independent political action through the Farmer Labor party.
 President Harding made his cam paign on the issue of opposition to President Wilson's league of nations" the statement said. He is now in the act of embroiling the United States again in the intrigues of the un- principled plotters of Europe"
 The statement also assailed the Esch- -Cummins law and declared that the Republican administration, how ever, finds this measure not suf- ficiently oppressive of labor and is about to amend it to abolish the rail- road labor board
 :'President Harding's administra tion,' the statement continued, lis said also to be about to abolish the | federal trade commission which ex- posed the lawlessness of the bee1 trust and stimulated the popular de mand for federal control of the meat packing industry.
 "The courts, likewise. continue their humble service for Wall stree and their stony indifference to tn, welfare of the workers. The United States supreme court has destroye, the protection for labor which Wa contained in the Clayton act, ha served wealth by whitewashing tn detection of Senator Newberry 0
 Michigan, and prevented the use o
 the Lever act to punish profiteers, al
 though it was Hberally used to las
 labor
 The United States court of appeal
 at Minneapolis has declared invaI
 North Dakota's grain grading law fo the protection of farmers. The onl ipeaceable remedy is by independen political action through the Farmer Labor party"

TRAIL OF bERGDOLL COLD
 IN KITCHEN IF SLACKER' $ HOME
New Jersey Judges Denied
 He Had Been Employed
 To Defend Bergdoll- Probe Continued Today

 WASHINGTON. May 12.-The trail for the buried gold of Grover Berg doll, draft dodger. which a house i'm vestigating committee is trying to pick up, ended today in the kitchen of the Bergdoll home at Philadelphia. where it was last seen by the man who had taken it there from the United States treasury.
 James E. Romig. former police magistrate of Philadelphia, who came here with the slacker's mother in 1919 to get the gold and from whom the committee had hoped to learn something of it's alleged burial place. declared he never set eyes on it after it had been dumped on the kitchen floor.
 Aged Witness Adds Sparkle
 The serious sessions of the commit tee were upset frequently by Romig. who is 70 years old, and is awaiting sentence on conviction of aiding Bergdoll to escape. Always in a laughing mood. Romig added con stant touch of levity.
 He was called after former Judge ] John w. Wescott of New Jersey had reiterated that there was not a word of truth in reports that he had been employed as one of BergdolTs law yers.
 Two of the judges sons, both law yers, and two other lawyers associat- | e6 with him. testified to the same effect
 l John H. Sherburne. counsel for the committee. had not brought the Ro- mig story up to the point where Berg doll slipped through a bathroom and started for Germany when the hear ing was adjourned until tomorrow. | There was a roar of laughter wher | the witness was asked if Bergdoll ha6 told him to go see Harry Thaw and get Thaw's advice as to the best alienists to engage in proceedings in l volving his sanity.
 Nothing to that the old man an swered. T did look around and asl people and they told me Thaw's doc I tors were all right"
 Carried Gold in Stocking
 Telling of his troubles with treas ury officials who tried. he said. "t, stall him off" Romig said he frs saw a part of the gold certificate
 which were exchanged for gold a
 Mrs. Bergdolrs home. The mothe accompanied him to Washington.
 Where did she carry it'' he said repeating a question. Why she ha' most of it in her stockings" When Grover first started to tel
 him about the buried gold, Romig a g !, serted he had refused to listen
 Pressed for a more explicit reason, h ! said it was none of his business. Why" he was asked. Well it's a hard thing to tel what's in my mind" and Romi | joined in the laughterA
 Asked about the stop-over at tn | Bergdoll home, in the custody of tw l sergeants, from whom the prisone
 escaped. Romig said that the gir r about which there has been much tes timony. suddenly appeared in the poe , room as if by magic. He denied h $ had taken 1t there. adding that h : would not have carried it that far.

NAVAL MEASURE MEETS STRONG
 OPPOSITION IN
 SENATE DEBATE
Little Progress Made In
 First Consideration of Bill-Disarmament Ad- vocates Promise Fight
rRepubuiean A. p. Leased wlre]


 WASHINGTON, May F. - The half-billion dollar naval appropria- tson bsll was taken up today in the senate only to encounter immediate opposition from disarmament advo- SMtcs-
 shortly after reading the naval af- fairs committees amendments had s<arted. the first rumblings of the eminent fight were heard The first amendment slightly increasing ap- rropriations of the house bill were reported without discussion but when The amendment was reached to in crease the sum for recruiting by a million dollars, Senator Borah, re- g,1hlfcan- of Idaho asked that it be psSSed over until the senate takes up the question of naval personnel
 Progress Frequently Blocked
 This request was repeated time af- rse day ended practically all of the major committee increases in the first half of the bill had been passed over. These included the appropria- sions for the Key West. Fla, subma- rfne base. San Diega, Cal, naval hos pGrai project, Guam submarine and .aeStroyer bases. and Sand Point, -tx Rshington. air station. San Pedro, @l submarine base. and the Ala D3FQ3- Aat- S0Ppig DdSS-
 Senator Borah. before asking that the Alameda project be passed over rntil later when he announced he wished to discuss them, made point cf order authorizing the secretary to accept for naval purposes at Alame- da. Los Angeles. Camp Kearney, Cal, and in King county. Washington The xsce president, however, over-ruled his contention that the provision was general legislation
 Senator King. democrat. of Utah attacked the b.ll. contending that escr~fncstion of the 1916 building nregran was a waste of money.
 ~The navy department he de- s<izred. has gone into the tomb and si< up the naval program of 1915. We haven't apparently learned any thing from the war"
 Says Bill Is War-Like
 The senator described the bill as g ~ar-lfke message from the United States to the nations of the world He read press dispatch saying tha Great Britain. because of the Amer lcan naval bill, had decided to con tract immediately for the building o four 5a.000-ton vessels of the super Hood type Many ships now in ser vice should be scrapped, he asserted adding that the Pacific fleet wa mace up of obsolete ''hulks.'
 Predicting there would be Ire ssstless tide in favor of world peac and a universal demand that tn United States assume the leadershi in a movement, Senator King de clarcd that the decision of congres an naval appropriations would de roand. whether the United States 10 he a peaceful or an aggressive na ton"
