Labor Will Try to Save
Congress From Bondage

Washington, Oct. 5.-Labor is out
to rescue Congress from the bondage
Of reactionary control" Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation Of Labor, declared in Il
statement outlining what labor will
attempt in this years congressional
campaign.
Labor already has stunned the re-
actionists effectively" Gompers said,
by aiding in the defeat of Senator's
New and McCumber, and in the nomi-
nation of Frazier in North Dakota,
Pinchot in Pennsylvania and Brook
hart in Iowa.
Labor has a militant, aggressive
organization in every State in the
Union" Gompers said. Labor Is
partisan to principles rather than 20
parties. No important reactionary
legislation will be enacted in the next
Congress, as a result of labor's op-
position to frozen reaction"

EXTRA SESSION
SEEMS CERTAIN
Believe Governor viii Issue
Call to Pass Bond
Issue
Author of Bond Issue Bill Providing
For Sl2,000,000 For Roads and
Chief Opponent Al" Reported TO
Have Agreed.

Richmond, Va, Oct. 5-Now that
Holman Willis, democratic floor lead
er in the Virginia Houe of Delegates
and author OF tho bill providing for
a bond issue of Sl2,OOO,OO0 for rpad
improvements, and Marvin Smithey,
representative nf Brunswick county,
who was rated as The chief opponent
of the bond .s5ue at the last session,
are reported 10 have come to terms,
the prevalent opinion around the
Capitol today was that Governor
Trinkle would soon send out call
for a special session to put the bond
issue through
At conference in Roanoke, Willis
is said 20 have given Smithey asSur-
ance that the new bill would be 50
drawn as to leave nc doubt that the
funds to defray the cost of the bonds
would be derived from a tax on gaso-
line
Smithey, it appears, harbored the
idea that a tax on real estate might
eventually have been levied. This, he
said. would have proved objectioabie
for the farmer element, WHO feel that
thev are already taxed heavily
enough on then lands.
It is thought that Governor Trinkle
will delay issuing the extra session
cali until he receives from the At
tornev General an opinion as to the
legal status of the Redistricting bill
with Madison county left without
Senatorial representation through an
oversight.
This. of itself, would necessitate
special session of the General As
sembly. it is pointed out, should The
Attorney General hold that 1T was
compulsory for the Constitution 70
renact a bill Shis year, for Madison
otherwise would not have representa-
tion at the 1924 session in the upper
! branch of the legislative body The
Attorney Generals opinion is expect
ed to be delivered to the Governor be-
fore the end of this week.
Should it he held that it was no;
necessary to redistrict the State this
wear, the old pill of 1912 might stand
and thus obvia,e the necessity FOR
emergency action by the Legislature.

Constantinople, Oct. 5.-The Mud
ania peace conference apparently has
achieved remarkable success in solv-
ing difficult preliminary problems OF
the Near East.
Official announcement OF the sign
ing of protocol providing for the
return of the Turks to eastern Thrace
coincidentally with their withdrawn
from the neutral zones near the
straits was momentarily expected
here.
The way has been paved for final
conference. at which Mustapha kemai
and allied leaders will agree upon dis
position of disputed Near East terri
tories and the threat Of holy war
removed.
The turning point at the secret par
lev at Mudania came when allied rep
resentatives were convinced that the
Turks genuinely desired 10 return to
eastern Thrace for peaceful occupa-
tion of their former territory. When
they conceded this point, the KemaliSt
representatives became Immediately
conciliatory. and agreed not, only 20
withdrawal of their troops from the
neutral zones east of the straits but
10 proposals that Turkish forces
should not enter Thrace until after
the final peace conference.

Senator Walsh, of Massachusetts,
chairman of the Democratic sena-
torial campaign committee, is in an
optimistic frame of mind. Tie COM
mittee is predicting that at leas:
seven Republicans in the Senate Will
be forced to give may to Democrats.
SURVEYS made by the Democratic
managers indicate three Senators
from hitherto Republican States in
the Middle West will be defeated IN
the November election. They are
basing their hopes on Iowa, North
Dakota and Michigan. They figure,
also, there is possibility of defeating
Senator Kellogg in Minnesota.
In the East the Democrats hope to
win in Maryland, New Jersey, Con-
necticut and West Virginia. The
nomination of Smith w BroOkhart IN
Iowa on the Republican ticket on a
platform pledging him to work for
the repeal of the Esch-Cummins
transportation has alienated to a
great extent the Cummins organiza-
tion-a powerful factor in that State.
Cummins' Republicans regard Brook
hart as a Socialist and they are plan
ming to put W. o. Payne of Des
Moines into the fled as an indepenc-
ent candidate. Should that be done
the division in the ranks of the Re
publicans would make the election of
the Democratic candidate almost a
certainty.
In North Dakota the Republican
party is split wide open and the
Democrats figure they have an excel
lent chance to elect their man. The
fight there is between the supporters
and opponents of the non-partisan
league. The fact that the followers
of Senator McCumber, who was de
feated in the primary, are for the
most part lukewarm in their support
of John H. Frazier. the non-partlsar
league candidate, lessons his chances
materially.

In Michigan the Newberry ISSUE
has split the Republicans, according
10 reports reaching Democratic SEN
atorial headquarters. The Democratic
campaign managers see q fine pros
pect of electing their man in that
rock-ribbed Republican stronghold.
With that end IN view it is planned
to concentrate a most earnest fight
in the State of Michigan.
The Democrats take it for granted
that Senator France will be defeated
in MARYLAND by William Cabell Bruce.
To support their conclusion they
point to the recent bitter Republican
urinary in that State and the fact
that Senator France is accused Of
radical tendencies which are uppopu-
lar with the vast majority Of the
electorate.
That Governor Edwards will de-
feat Senator Frelinghuysen in New
Jersey on the wet issue is the con>
firned conviction of the managers OF
the Democratic campaign+ They de-
clsre that the wet and dry issue is
the paramount one in that State and
that the overwhelming sentiment is
in favor of Governor Edwsrds, an
avowed wet candidate.
