The Wall-Street Journal tells
us what fine Secretary Of the
Treasury Mr.. Andrew Mellon is
making, and then, as if to clinch
its point, proceeds to sneer at
Democratic Secretaries of the
Treasury. such as job n G. Car
Isle, William G. McAdoo and
Carter Glass. Mr.. Mellon is ac-
ceptable to the Wall-street men,
this authority tells US; Mr.. Car
Isle, Mr.. McAdoo and Mr.. Glass
were not. 1t is perfectly true
that Mr.. Mellon is making good
record at the Treasury; Dem
ocrats should not initiate the in
durable partisanship of such pa
pers as the Wall-Street Journal
and deny the truth. But Mr..
Mellon is not the able man that
John G. Carlisle was, and he has
as yet done nothing to show that
he has greater grasp upon f.
nancial problems than Mr.. Nc
Adoo and Mr.. Glass, Mr.. Mel
lon is a Republican, and, there
fore, the Wall Street Journal ex-
tolls him. If he had been nam
ed by a Democrat that paper
would now be trying to embar-
rass him in every way possible.

Summoning Grand Ju-

New Brunswick, n. D., OcL. pu'-
Possibility that the HalI-Mills mur-
der case would be presented to the
grand Jury today, seemed remote
this morning. Information from
Somerville, the county seat, was to
the effect that notices had not been
forwarded to members Of the. grand
Jury and that it would require at
least q hours for the inQuisitors to
assemble after receiving notices.
Special Deputy Attorney General
Wilbur A. Mott, today reiterated his
confidence in the story told him by
Mrs Jane Gibson, woman farmer,
that she witnessed the murders.
Two witnesses, Mr.. and Mrs. Nor
man R. TingIe, who live diagona!Iy
across from the Phillips farm, have
corroborated Mrs. Gibson's story in
so far as the hour OF the murders is
concerned. The Tingles heard sounds
which they think may have been pIs-
itol shots about 10 p. M, September
ia, the night the Rev. Edward Wheel
er Hall and his choir leader. Mrs
aanor Reinhardt Mills, were shot.

VoIga Is Dragged
for Relief Worker;
Murder Possible
By Associated Press)

Moscow. Oct. 3O.-Two arrests
have been made in connection with
the disappearance two weeks ago OF
Phillip ]. Shield, American relief
worker at Simbirsk, according to a
telegram received here by Colonel
William N. Haskell, head of the
field forces of the American relief
administration.
Until Saturday night last the au-
tborities were inclined to believe
the relief worker, whose home is in
Richmond. Va, had committed sui
eide. but early yesterday certain de-
velopments not yet made public, led
them to believe that Shield may have
heen murdered. Detailed informa-
tion concerning the arrests was not
received here. Investigating au-
thorities are still dragging the Volga
in the belief that they will find the
body in the river, since Shields hat
was found on the bank above Sim
Ibirsk several days ago.

Cleveland, Ohio, Oct. 30.-The
Mayfield township grade school, un-

of here, was demolished by two eX-
plosions last night. Houses in the
vicinity We're shaken and the blasts
were heard in a radius of several
miles. There were two explosions at
intervals Of two minutes; one charge
had evidently been placed in the boil
er, recently installed, while the 9th
er was in the northeast corner Of the
building.
The building, a two-story brick
structure, was being erected by the
Harbaugh Construction company of
Akron, at a cost of $4,000.
According to Harry Addison, pres

Secretary of Labor Is
Against Any Further
Concentration
TAKES WORKERS PART
Declares They Deeply
Impressed With the
Responsibility
CRx Associated Press)

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 3O-Hope OF an
early solution of the problem of rail
road conditions was expressed by Jas.
J. Davis, secretary of labor, in state
mant made public here last night.
"In the past three weeks l have
travelled more than 5000 miles on six
Of our great railway systems" Mr..
Davis said.
"On this trip | have been able to
get in touch with the human factor
in transportation problems, having
talked with the men who do the work
of these roads.
81 have been impressed with the
strong sense Of responsibility among
the railroad workerssand with their
recognition of the duty that they and
their employers owe to the whole peo'
pie. To my mind we are getting
c.Osa to a solution of the problem OF
insuring industrial peace on our rail
roads. The men who do the work are
almost universally convinced thai
means can be found to adjust the re
lations Of the railroads and their EN-
ployes in SUCH way as to eliminate
all possibility Of great RAILROAD
strikes.
There seems to be feeling among
the workers that government med
ding without real power behind l
tends to stir up dissatisfaction and II
litation and that the decentralization
of the treatment of railroad labor con
/ troversies is vitally needed.
81 am hopeful that by the time
have returned to Washington it viii
be possible to formulate a definit
program that will deal sensibly an
practically on a human basis with tn
problem of railroad labor conditions.
