Oppeln, Silesia. June 8.-Rosen-
berg, a town about 20 miles north
east of this city. and located near the
old Polish frontier has been occupied
by battalion of British troops. Ros-
enberg was taken by Polish insur-
gents during their first advance in
upper Silesia and there has been
danger of serious fighting there be-
tween the Poles and Germans.
Reports received here are silent as
to whether fighting occurred when
the British occupied this Polish
stronghold but in official circles it is
believed it is quite probable that the
British and Poles clashed.
Three Frenchmen were wounded,
two probably fatally, by Germans

In Hands of Men

tons was in the hands of the en-
ployes, railroad brotherhood chiefs

suggestion was made by L. E. Shep-
pard, head of the conductors, and

men, in opening the big four testi-
mony in the railroad labor boards

They were followed by w. 5.
Carter, president of the fremen and

the hazards of the mems employ
ment and on what he called their
losing fight to maintain an adequate
wage standard.
The attitude of the railroads in
attempting to cut wages and the
labor boards reduction order were
declared to be the responsible causes
if the train and engine service men
vote to strike July |. when they
meet here in conference, Mr.. Shep-
pard said.
Mr.. Carter declared that the board
should give attention to "the losing
struggle" of firemen to secure an
adequate wage. He made lengthy
comparison with wages in the metal
and building industries since 1907.
His comparisons were challenged by
]. G. Walber, representing eastern

Chicago Man Starts
War on Gun Toting' =

son owner of a string of restaurants

upon pistol toting.' He is inserting
display advertisements in various
papers offering reward Of $1,000
to any person who can furnish one
eood reason why manufacturing of
revolvers should be permitted to ex-
ist in the United States and enjoy
the facilities of the mails.
Mr.. Thompson argues that it all
the revolvers and pistols in the
United States were conhscated by
the government and their manufac-
ture and sale prohibited by law, the
decrease in crime would s.artle the
world.
The revolver always has been and
is still menace to any community"
he said. 1T is merely the weapon
of the thug, the holdup man and
the murderer. 1t is impossible 20

army OF 10000 men, the senate to-
day passed the army appropriation
bill carrying $334,000,000 and max
ing provisions for an army of not
less than 10000 men. The house
had previously provided for 10000.
Advocates of /conomy, after pour
ing hot attack on the committee
provision for 10000, voted down, Sc
to 81, the committee amendment. By
like majority the senate yesterday
had accepted the 10000 figure, so
that today's vote constituted a re-
versal.
The army budget now goes to con-
ference. The house bill carried ap-
preparations totaling about $4,000
600 less.
Two democrats, Senators Fletcher,
Florida, and Meyers, Montana, voted
with so republicans to support the

republicans voted with q democrats
against the 10000 figure. These in
cluded Borah, Idaho; Gooding,
Idaho; Jones, Washington; Kenyon,
Iowa; McNary, Oregon; Stanfeld,

Even those who are "fed up" on

The knowledge that there is nc

There is no similar fund in ex-

As the hot, trying days of summer

Union Men
Will Fight
Wage Cuts
Leaders at Annual Convention
Urge Workers to Resist
Reductions and Long.
er Hours.
Blame Dealers forH.C.L

Denver, June 8.-Co-operation ant
joint action by all the metal work
ing trade unions in the country tt
resist further reductions in wage,
and increases in the hours Of labor
was urged by James O'Connell, pres
idcnt of the metal trades department
of the American Federation of La
Dor, in his annual address to the de-
partments convention.
Building trade workers were also
warned that further wage cuts were
not justified by William Spencer,
secretary OF the building trades de-
partment, in his address before the
departments convention. He placed
the responsibility for excessive
building costs upon the building ma
terials dealers of the country and not
on labor.
Despite the deplorable industrial
situation, President O'Connell of the
metal trades said that there was no
justification for a second reduction
Of wages, nor above all, can l con-
ceive of any reason whereby the
hours of labor should be increased
with millions out of employment.
Cooperation Urged.
The labor leader asserted that the
proposed plan for united action in
the metal trades did not involve the
"one big union" idea, but its pur-
pose is to secure a closer and more
direct cooperation between atfili-
ated ORGANIZATIONS. This would also
enable the metal trades, he said, to
act as q unit in opposing employers
attempts to abolish collective bar
gaining, the non-union shop and
compulsory signing of individual
contracts.
Labor is not responsible for en-
cessive costs of building" said Sec
retary Spencer, Notwithstanding in
sidious efforts OF certain cold, cal
cu1ating interests whose purpose
are best served by attempting to
blame the high costs ON the back
of labor in order that the building
materials dealers may through du
plicity continue to reap their harvest
of inflated prices.
"The curtailment of building ac-
tivity throughout the country is
traceable to excessive cost of build
ing materials"
The labor official said the con-
tractors would also require. agree
nents from the building materials
dealers if they ARE sincere in their
efforts to reduce building prices and
want to be fair with the building
public, as we'll as the worker"
Prices May Rise.
While some building materials
have temporarily declined in price,

Congress Authorizes

Washington, June S-.A joint res

the secretary of war to extend all
possible relief to Colorado flood
sufferers.
Previously Senator Phipps Of Col

Buck Passed to
Supreme Council
By Ambassadors
Question of Control of Ger
man Aviation Will Probab.
ly Be Taken To Bou.
logne Conference.

Chicago Tribune Cable, Copyright, 1921.
Paris, June S.-The counsel OF
ambassadors this morning passed the
buck on the control of German avia-
ton to the supreme council, and in
view of Berlin's demand that the
question be settled, it is expected the
matter will, be placed on the agenda
of the Boulogne conference. The
treaty of Versailles provides that
Germany may maintain commercial
aviation, but requires that the planes
be such as cannot be transformed
into war craft.
Military aviation experts are seek
ing to find technical means for
solving the problem and the follow
ing recommendations have been
made:
l. An interallied control is to in
spect regularly, all the airplane fac
tories in Germany to superintend the
number and size of the machines
constructed.
2. German commercial airplanes
will be restricted as to size so that
they cannot carry more than cer-
tain weight of freight, thus auto
matically restricting the amount of
explosives capable of being carried.
8. The German machines will be
restricted as to horsepower SO that
they cannot exceed certain speed.
1t is impossible to engage in aero
batics with slow machines and they
would be an easy prey for the
speedy. fast climbing machines which
the allies will develop in readiness
for any German aggression.
British aviation experts propose
limiting the cruising radius of Ger
man machines to $50 miles and the
French point out the significance of
this by stating that the shortest dis
tance between Germany and Eng
land is more than 200 miles.
The French assert if the weight
carrying capacity of the German
machines is limited, the Germans will
merely install 200-horse power
motors and then substitute them for
450-horse power engines at the out
break Of war.
