L'FOLLETTE NAMES
 l9 LOBBY SYSTEMS
 AS MENACE TO U. s.
Chamber of Commerce and Manu- facturers Association Head the
 List Given by Senator.

Washington, April 22-The great is sue before the American people today Is the control of their own government, Senator Robert NJ. La Toilette, of Wis cOnsin, declared in an address to the founders of the "People's Legislative Service"
 "A mighty power has been builded in this country in recent years, so strong, vet so insidious and far-reaching in its influence" Senator La Toilette said. that men are gravely inquiring whether its iron grip on government and business can ever be broken.
 Again and again 1t has proved strong enough to nominate the candidate for ganizatior of legislative bodies, state and national, and of the committees which frame legislation. Its influence has been felt in cabinets and in the policies of administration and has been clearly seen ir the appointment of prosecuting officers and selection of judges. This great power which has taken from the Amer iCan people the control of their own government is the product of monopoly and organized greed"
 Declaring that never before had the national capital attracted so menacing an army of lobbyists seeking from the representatives of the people unjust concessions to special interests" Sena- tor La Toilette named 19 great com binatiOns of financial power which main tain active organizations in Washington y
 The organizations mentioned were the United States Chamber of Commerce, National Association of Manufacturers, American Association of Meat Packers, National Coal Association, Wholesale Coal Dealers Association, National Petroleum Association, National Water- power Association, National Lumber Manufacturers Association, National Association for Protection of American Rights in Mexico Lumberman's Bureau, American Beat Sugar Association, Amer '~an Cane Sugar Association, United States Manufacturers Association. Hardware Manufacturers Association, National Gamers Association National Association of Real Estate Boards, American Railway Association, Associa- tion of Railway Security Holders. and the Association of Railway Executives.
 The Senator charged that the first weapon of these organizations is per sonal influence Adoption by Congress of a fixed percentage return, (which forced the Interstate Commerce Con- mission to increase the annual trans portaton bill of the nation by hundreds of millions of dollars" Senator La Fol lettc said, was "a striking example of the enormous power which can be mar shaled by a single interest"
 To meet this ''intolerable situation,' y the Senator urged support of the 'peo- ple's legislative service," comprising rep resentatives of labor organizations, pro- grcssive farm organizations and leaders of liberal opinion. the prime object of which, he said, was to keep watch on and ana1yze legislation, with a publicity division to inform the people.

his own speedy recovery, were adopted and presented to Mr. Punkett, but the sincere wishes of his fellows were of no avail for he slowly lost strength until his death Sunday.
 Ever since the carpenters union was organized here some 35 or so years ago the name of Jim Plunkett has been svnonomOus with it. He was one of the organizers and held practically every office in the gift of the New Haven lodge and when the State Council of Carpen- ters was organized about Is years ago, he became it's head and served through several strenuous terms For many years he was also business agent of the local district council and was instrumental in many occasions in settling disputes be- tween the employer and the men, without trouble to either side A few years ago his advancing years led him to retire from active organization work, but he never for moment lost his interest in the cause Three daughters survive him Mrs. John V. Donovan, Mrs. Henry I. Scully and Miss Margaret Plunkett, and two sons, James J. and John F. Plunkett
 The funeral of Mir. Plunkett was held Wednesday morning from the home of his daughter. Solemn requiem high mass Was CeleDI dlcu at ot bI cllIdll , Nllul CIl at 9 80 by Rev.

GARY NOW SEES NO FURTHER NEED
 OF LABOR UNIONS
Steel Trust Head, of 12-Hour Day Fame, Exudes More Altruism
 to His Bosses.

I.lbcrt II. Gary, head of the Steel Trust and SO sincere friend of the work ingman that he wished to re-establish the hour day in his steel mills, told the stockholders of his corporation at a meeting i'll New York on Monday that there IS no longer any need for trades unions but that some law should be adopted to strangle them, and incidentally to regulate business through reasonable governmental control.
 Part of what Mr. Gary said is enough for the worker to get his viewpoint Declaring he did not believe i'll social ism nor in governmental management of operation, he suggested that non-parti- san, nOn-scCretarian commissions or de- partments render decisions, subject to review by the highest cours. Laws, clear, well defined, practically and easy of ehcnsiOn-COvering these mat ters, might be passed, and if so they shOuld apply to all economic Organiza- tious, groups or bodies exceeding certain specified numbers or amounts. Both organized capital and organized labor should be placed under these laws Each should be entitled to the same protection and be subject to the same restrictions and provisions.
 Will labor unions consent to this :? They have heretofore objected. Here would be test.
 "The natural and certain effects of la Dor uniOniSm are expressed by three words: inetliciency, high costs" he said
 "l would not intentionally do an in justice to any union labor leader, nor to labor union, but l firmly believe complete unionization of the industry of fl,i, ,.,n,11I ho tho If industrial decay. It seems to be that the natural. if not the necessary, result of the contemplated progress of labor unions, if successful, would be the con- trol of shops, then of the general man. agement, the business, then of capital, and finally the government.
 Admitting that unions may have been justified in the long past" because work men were not treated justly, he declared there is now mo necessity" for labor unions, 'in the opinion of the large ma jOrity of both employers and employees"
 Turning to the subject of possible re- duction of working hours for employees of the steel corporation, he said: ''The officers of the corporation, the presidents of subsidiary companies and majority of others in positions of responsibility are in favor of abolishing the 12-hOur day, and for this reason and because of public sentiment 1t is our endeavor and expectation to decrease the working lours-we hope in the comparatively near future"
 He said the employees, on the average, "havc received as high, if not the high est, compensation and as generous, ii not the most generous, treatment accorded by any basic industry at any period i'll this or any other country"

EAST HAMMERED IN
 A. A. U. CHAMPIONSHIP

Interest is gradually centering in the coming National A. A. U. championships which are going to be held at Pasadena, Cal, next July. But one of the main topics that is occupying the minds of the Eastern officials is how they are going to send real representative team to the coast games. It is apparent that the full est team cannot be sent owing to the expense entailed in such long trip-so for this reason it already begins to look as If the majOrity of the A. A. U. titles for 1921 are going to be perched on the chest of many of the Californian repre- SentatiVes.
 According to our humble way of think ing this holding the national champion ships in the Far West or the Far East for that matter IS all wrong. When the contests are held in the Far East but few of the Western athletes are on deck, while in the Far West it is the same story. A more equitable arrangement would be to hold the annual champion ships in Chicago or Denver, or at some halfway point, where both the Eastern and Western athletes would have to journey approximately the same distance i'll order to compete in the games.

TELLS ABOUT ORIGIN

]. Doak Roberts Gives History of
 Expression.
DIsqusted Syracuse Pitcher Gave Vent to Exclamation When Three Re- cruits Dropped Safeties Back
 of the Infield.

"Texas leaguers," recruits or stars from the circuit of cities in the Lone Star state making up that association, have wrecked many ball games when they passed on to the major leagues, but the real "Texas leaguer," the hit Itself, no matter from what state the player who delivered 1t came, has wrecked many more day by day, narrations of play have shown for years.

CHARLEY RiGLER ALL
 RIGHT AS AN UMPIRE

Umpire Charley Rigler likes his joke. One night after Um- pire Billy Evans had gone to bed, his telephone bell rang and Evans answered. Over the wire he was told that a fan was speaking and wished a decision on a play to settle an argument.
 It was an involved question and Evans answered it at length and with much patience.
 Then the voice asked: "What kind of an umpire is Rigler?''
 Evans began to get impatient. "A very good one; as good as there is." he answered shortly.
 "Thanks," came back over the phone. This is Rigler speak ing. Now you can go back to bed, Billy"
