TREATY SETTLING
 SILESIAN PROBLEM
Poland and Germany Sign Papers Over Long Standing Controversy With Agreement of 6O1 Articles.

Geneva, May 15.-(By The Associ- ated Press. )-An economic treaty be. tween Poland and Germany settling the Upper Silesian question between the two nations, was signed today ir the presence of the council of the league of nations and many other in. terested spectators.
 Both the German and the Polish representatives said the treaty eimi- mated any possibility there might have been of a European war over this long standing controversy.
 The agreement, longer than the treaty of Versailles and containing sol articles was negotiated under the auspices of the league and covers de tailed arrangements for disposal ot all problems connected with the rail- ways, water, electrical and coal sup plies and postal and telegra phit questions for the next 15 years. The joint Polish-German commissions un. der league of nations chairmen arc provided for the first to execute the treaty and the second to settle private disputes.
 In league circles the agreement is regarded as the most important ad- justment of European controversy since the signing of the treaty of Yer sailes.

 vantage at the expense of the public
 welfare"

Chicago, May 15.-Eight labor men nection with Chicago's labor war, will have preliminary hearings today be- fore kickham Sanon. chief justice of the criminal courts.
 Their attorneys have been instruct ed to ask for habeas corpus writs thus forcing the state, if 1t wishes to hold them without ball. to produce evil dence upon which hanging verdicts are to be asked for the big three" la- bor leaders. Big Tim" Murphy, head of the gas house workers union; Con Shea, of the theatrical janitors union and Fred Mared, president of the Chi cago building trades council.
 It is alleged by Henry Barrett Chamberlain, of the Chicago crime commission, that the labor men are equipped with a million dollar "slush fund" for the defense.

 Their Sensational Confessions.
 We have three astounding confes- sions," said Mir. Chamberlain.
 Alleged tactics employed by Fred Nader in obtaining the presidency of the building trades council were barred today by members of that or ganization, who asserted that many members antagonistic to Nader were kept away by sluggers from the meet ing at which he was selected.
 Strike Called Of.
 The building strike scheduled by Nader for next Monday and involving 65,000 men, has unofficially been called off, it is said. The men were asked to go out on strike as a pro- test against the open shop declared in the 12 trades blacklisted by the citi- zens' committee, an organization to enforce the Landis wage award, which was a decision handed down by K w. Landis, former federal judge then act ing as arbiter which was intended to settle differences between contractors and members of the building trades council.
 Clean Up of Unions.
 None of the 32 unions involved has voted on the question and leaders ns- serted that no vote would be taken until the council had been reorganized and men of clean records put in charge.
