The House Of Representative has
passed the ship subsidy bill which
President Harding called Congress
into special to consider.
Ship Subsidy Bill.
This IS the measure designed to
give governmental financial aid TO
shipowners. in order that 1t may
pay them to keep merchant vessels
on the sea under the American nag.
The bill met. so much opposition
that the msjority in its favor was
only "a, though there are 1G7 more
Republicans than Democrats in the
lower house of this Congress.
The Senate will discuss the pro-
posal next and the fight against IL
there promises TO be harder than in
the house.
Lining Up for Fight.
In the new Congress, recently
elected. which succeeds the present
one. as already has been explained,
there are, in both houses, groups or
members practically uncOnnected
with either big party though elect
ed on the Republican ticket.
Il was foreseen from the first that
these members would join forces TO
a sufficient number to throw the
majority either 10 the Republicans
or Democrats. as they chose.
This forecast has been verified.
The Progressires as they are known
have met at Senator La Follette's
call and are shaping their plans.
Il is taken for granted that. in re-
turn for the aid they will be able 10
give. now to one. now to the other
Of the regular parties. they will in
sist on help in carrying out their own
political plans.
Pushing Daugherty Charges.
Congressman Keller has laid be-
fore the Judiciary Committee Of the
House Of Representatives detailed
charges attacking Attorney Daugh-
erty Of President Harding's cabinet. |
Keller some time ago began
against Daugherty an Impeachment
proceeding--in other words form
OF accusation designed 10 cause re- !
movsl from his position Of a public /
Official against whom the accusation |
is directed, of course assuming that |
1t is made good.
The case primarily grew out Of the I
federal court injunction secured by |
Daugherty last summer against the 4
railroad men on strike at that time /
This is mentioned again, but the
charges also mention other abuses
OF office for which Keller asserts the
attorney general IS responsible.
Such notable men as eX-President
Taft and President Gompers Of the
American Federation Of Labor are
referred to by Keller as among the
witnesses he viii call.
Daugherty denies all the charges
against him. saying the influence OF
law violators and dangerous radicals
caused them 10 be made.
Radicals Freed by Pardon.
Governor Small OF Illinois has
granted pardons 10 William Bross
Lloyd. a millionaire. and to 16 other
men who were serving penitentiaryi
or jail senences FOR violations Of the /
State anti-syndicalism law, syndical- !
ism being q sort Of politico-s.cio- /
economic philosophy best represent /
ed i'm this country by the I. W. w. I
Of which, however. an individual !
does not have to be a member IN 4
order to entertain syndicalistic /
views.
The pardoned men had previously /
appealed their cases 10 the Illinois
Supreme Court, which decided
against them. One member of the
bench, however, Justice Carter. dis
agreed with the others. referring to

we're secured as war psychology"

paid for reparations. Thus all the
enormous sums she has paid plus
her trade deficit, have had to be
paid by inflation-that is, by selling
paper marks TO the foreign markets.
That was only possible because
of the confidence which the whole
world had in the regeneration oven
of crippled Germany and the con-
sequent mania to buy paper
marks.
Owing to the attitude-above all,
of France-that Germany must full
fill what we claim are impossible
conditions, the worlds confidence
is rapidly waning, and the thou
sands of millions of marks held By
firms and by all sorts of specu-
lators, from New York to Constan-
tinople and from Buenos Aires to
Yokohama. are being flung on the
markets with disastrous effect to
the price of the mar.
Thus Germany's financial deficit
and the paper mark sums neces-
sary for paying the bills for repa-
ration payments are rapidly being
not only increased but multiplied.
Constant increase OF all home
prices and wages results, and the
! final crash is inevitable and immi-
nent if the separations question is
not almost Immediately revised.

Jonesboro, Ark, Aug. 80. The
Jonesboro Evening Sun says that
party of ten strikebreakers are
in the city today. They are said
to be enroute from Pine Bluff to
limo The party IS in charge OF
two armed guards, both OF whom
wear rifles slung over their shout
ders. They arrived on the north
bound train, which ties up here.
On arrival it is said that the
strikebreakers went to the Cotton
Belt shops. A report was current
that they were put to work here.
The shop officials denied this. A
report also ensued that they would
go to work tomorrow. This could
not be affirmed.
The striking shopmen knew lit
tie about the movements Of the
strikebreakers and attempted in no
way to modest them, showing little
interest in them.
