GIVEN MORE Time
Wolff Packing Company Has
Until Saturday to Answer.
Court May Appoint Commits
siOner to Take Testimony.
2 APPLICATIONS BEING. HEARD
Industrial Court Asks That
Company Comply With Order.
Wolff Company Asks That
Order Be Modified.
2 APPLICATIONS BEING HEARD

Appointment by the supreme court
of a commissioner to take further
testimony in the Wolff Packing COM
pany wage case was one of the proba-
bilities today in the mandamus pro-
ceedings before the supreme court.
Following a hearing in chambers the
court granted a peremptory writ of
mandamus in form of an alternative
writ, allowing D. r. Hite, representing
the Wolff company until Saturday to
answer.
Involves Courts Wage Award.
The applications for writs were be-
fore the supreme court in today's
hearing involving the industrial court s
wage award in the packing company
case The industrial court asked for
a peremptory writ compelling the
company to put into immediate effect
the wage awards and regulations. A
second application was by the Wolff
company seeking an alternative writ
to compel the industrial court to
modify its order and remove alleged
discriminatory and confiscatory pro-
visions
Judges Higgins and McDermott of
the industrial court spoke in support
of their order as did Baxter McClain,
attorney for the industrial court. Hite
presented the application for an al
tentative writ.
In his argument Hite urged that the
industrial court award was COnIlScd-
tory and unfair. He stated that the
Industrial court was offered full and
complete access to the packing com
pany's books, pay rolls and records,
but made a decision in the wage case
without a proper consideration or
study of these records. Hite said that
enforcement of the award cost the
company $500 a week more than the
same labor had previously been paid
or could be hired on the open market.
Members of the industrial court said
they had lost their accountant and
were unable to complete investigation
of the Wolff company pay rolls Rfte
urged that In view of this situation
the company was entitled to further
hearing of the case and an order hold
ing the award in allegiance.
No New Wage Scale.
The company, according to the in
dustria1 court pleadiugs, has not put
the new wage scale in effect. Under
the action of the supreme court fur
ther action is suspended pending the
upper courts decision. Based on
Hite's answer Saturday to the courts s
application for a writ the supreme
court will determine the necessity of
appointing a commissioner and TAX
ing oral testimony.

200 Are DROWNED
Large Areas of Japan Are
Swept by Floods.
Heavy Rains Cause Great Havoc
in Many Cities.

Toxic, Japan, June 21.-Terrific
floods are sweeping large areas of
Japan. The death list approached
200. Entire villages were submerged
under fifteen feet of water in the Hita
district. At Kyusha, more than six
hundred houses were washed away.
Heavy rains caused the floods. The
district of Kyusha was inundated so
quickly that thousands had narrow
escaped. At least 1S0 persons drowned
there. The flood quickly swept hun
dreds of lightly constructed dwelling
houses into the torrent. where they
collapsed and were carried out to sea
in mass of debris. Bridges were
torn out and swept away.
In the Hita district, the waters
spread more slowly, filling streets of
many villages. some of them to a
depth of fifteen feet. Twenty-three
villages were known to be under wa
ter, their inhabitants taking to boats,
some living precariously in trees. and
others clinging to roofs of cottages
which threatened momentarily to
leave their foundations.
Near Fukuoka, a city of almost
100000 persons, great damage was
done.

union WINS FIGHT
Pullman Company Loses Its
Open Shop Battle.
Federal Board UphOlds Leaders
of Car Workers. Nse,

Chicago, June 21.-The Pullman
company lost its open shop fight be-
fore the United States railroad labor
board today when the board upheld
the contention of union leaders that
the company had not obeyed 'the let
ter and spirit" of the transportation
act when it conferred with its en-
ployes in mass meeting. >
The board threw out the company
petition for cut in the wages of its
shop employees and instructed 1t to go
back and meet the duly elected rep
resentatives'' of the employees.
The shop crafts and clerks in the
Pullman works are involved in the
case. The boards decision will delay
any action on a reduction in their
wages for several weeks.
Under the transportation act the
company must meet the union leaders
and in the event they failed to reach
a decision file a petition before the
board and ask a new hearing

To Put on State Wide Campaign
Next Year.
Out After Big Membership in
Kansas in 1929.
PREPARE FOR STATE PAPER
Political Campaign Will Be
Worked Out During Winter.

Nonpartisan league leaders have
outlined their plans for a statewide
campaign in Kansas next year. They
will direct a statewide membership
drive next fall and will prepare for
publication of a state paper and or
ganizations in every county in the
state. Township and precinct organi-
cations will be sought.
Post dated checks are being taken
by the League in securing members.
Beginning October 1, the leaders will
make two weeks membership drive
in the state. They have appealed to
all members to aid in promoting the
own cars and a bond of $1,000. They
will be reimbursed to the amount of
their actual expenses. Their time will
be donated to the cause"
To Make Political Campaign.
Plans to make a statewide poIiti-
cal campaign next year will be
worked out during the winter or next
spring. Organization of the counties
will be completed not later than Feb
ruary l, the announcement states,
while League organization primaries
Will be held in regular polling places
in each county and precinct February
22. Three committeeman, a chair
man, secretary and treasurer of the To-
cal committees will be named. The
county and township organizations
will be merged with the state organi-
zatlon for the campaign.
BE sure to get every member there
and elect three good, true men who
are workers and the battle is more
than half won," says the appeal.
Urge Necessity of Paper.
The notice is signed by Henry Mel
son, chairman; A. K. Mills, S. L. Wal
ter, Victor C. johnson and Bert Mead
as members of the Leagues state ex-
ecutive committee. They urge neces-
sity of state publication and an
nounce discussion of the project at a
meeting to be held in Salina the first
Saturday in September. The mem
Dersh1p of the League is urged to at
tend the Salina meeting.
In the statement from the executive
committee, members are impressed
with the Leagues need of funds. It'is
asserted that acceptance of post dated
checks has cut down immediate reye-
nues, altho denial is made of any claim
that the organization is not in posses
sion OF sufficient money for immediate
needs.
Add Many New Members.
I'VE are credited by our enemies
said the announceme ent, for having
| in round numbers Is, 900 members, but
this is very small per cent of the
| number of League members we will
have in Kansas when we are lined uI
tOA lHe Adli CdHipdlSH OF 1SSz. Every
day is adding new members to the
League, but the real drive for mem
bers, the diligent, unceasing drive, will
commence during the coming fall an6
be continued right up to the opening
| of the polls in November, 1922"
| Officers of the League announce they
will attend number of local meet
| ings and will hear expressions from
the membership as to plans for the
| political campaign which is announced
| for next year. League leaders have
recently stated that they will seek tt
work out their policies thru candi
dates of dominant parties rather thar
| in an attempt to win with an inde
pendent political organization.
