Improvement With Short
age of Competent Help
in Some Localities.

Washington, May IA wide
spread industrial awakening ist.c%s
tending all over the country, Sccre-
tary Of Labor Davis declared, fol-
lowing a conference with officials
of the United States employment
service.
There are few dark spots" said
Secretary Davis, where there is con-
siderable unemployment, such as IN
the state of Louisiana and in the
large shipbuilding centers; also in
New York city, San. francisco and
Chicago.
However, the extensive building
program in New York city will abb
sorb all building trades mechanics.
Chicago is engaging in a build
ing program, but is considerably
handicapped by reason of the Lands
award, which has not been accepted.
Nevertheless. conditions are improve
ing rapidly in the centers.
Farm Outlook Good.
"Thc farm situation is decidedly
encouraging. The demand for farm
help from all sections Of the coun-
try is indicative Of the optimistic at
titude of the farmer. As there are
6,448,000 farms in the country, they
will absorb tremendous amount OF
labor.
New York state reports great
decrease in unemployment. There IS
revival OF business in the New Eng
land states, notwithstanding the sus-
pension in textiles. / am pleased to
advise that reports coming from New
Jersey state that building and con-
tract operations are now in full
swing. They are encouraging out
side workers to come to their state,
especially in the building lines.
Ohio reports increased activity
along all lines. Pennsylvania is show
ing decided improvement in indus
try. There is considerable improve
ment in Indiana. The federal direc-
tor OF Spokane, under date Of April
22, reports labor conditions through
out the state as showing gradual inn
provement FARM help is in demand.
with slight shortage. There is an
increase in building operations.
Prospects Encouraging.
Under date Of April %, the fed
eral director for Kansas reports that
weather conditions are unfavorable,
retarding industrial upward move
ment, but that the prospects are very
encouraging.
THE west north central district
comprising the states OF Minnesota,
Iowa. Missouri, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas, are
all>entering upon an era Of consider
able activity. In some of these sec
tons, especially North Dakota, there
is an actual shortage of experienced
farm help"

Concluding an exhaustive review
Of the events leading up to Ameri-

the United States was actuated by
the two following motives:,
ITO terminate the appalling con-
ditions Of anarchy, savagery and op.
preston, which had been prevalent
in Haiti for decades. and to under
take the establishment of domestic
peace in the republic. in order that
the great bulk of the population,

of repeated revolutions, should en-

and industrial development to which
every people of an American ma

Organized Labor
Boycott Against
Baseball Failure
Chicago Building Ira d e s
Council Sends Out Second
Appeal to Unions in
Major League Cities.

Chicago, May 1.-The organized
labor boycott OF organized baseball
has failed to bring results. Disap-
pointed because of the failure Of their
appeal to cut down the attendance
in big league cities. the Chicago
Building Trades council, through its
president, Fred Nader, has sent out
another plea to organized labor in
the major league cities, urging all
union men to boycott professional
baseball as long as Judge K. M.
Lanris remains as the ruling head of
the game.
The letter characterizes Judge
Lands as "buffoon" who, by his
actions as arbiter in the local build
ing trades disputes, threw thousands
of men out of work. Tht labor men
themselves picked Judge Lands to
settle the case. They have refused
to abide by his decision.
/ The first appeal was sent out at
the optning of the season. Labor
union chiefs here had visions of
dwindling attendance at the ball
parks, but reports so far indicate that
the crowds have been even larger
than previous seasons
Emmett I. Flood, an official Of the
council, says the appeal will reach
1,500,000 union workers.
"As soon as the central bodies OF
tht major league cities receive our
letter they have instruction to copy
it and send il to all affiliated locals.
This move is bound to be felt at the
gates Of the baseball parks said
Flood.
Judge Lands refused to comment
ON the boycott. Others intimated
that tht only way the unions could
in any way affect the attendance at
the ball parks would be to let their
men go to work.

Cooperation of DR.. Sun
With Chang Tso.Ling.

--ss-7->s
Washington, May 7-Warning the
powers OF the dangers of foreign in
tervention and denouncing General
WI Pei-Fu as renegade. Ma 500
American representative OF the Can
ton government, defended the coop
Grafton OF DR.. Sun Vat Sen with
Gen. Chang Tso-Ling as the most
promising measure for the unifica-
ton of China.
Ma 500 denied that WI had de-
feated Chang decisively and said civil
war in China is no, ended. Describ-
ing conference at Canton to which
WI, Chang and other chieftains sent
delegates, Ma 500 said:
"Our terms were easy. They were
that the various military factions
should subscribe to the provisional
constitution and as a pledge of their
seriousness, should disassociate them
selves with the Pekin government
and submit to the Canton govern
ment. We purposely made these
terms easy so as to get the factions
to agree. They were accepted by the
representatives of Chang Tso-Ling.
In negotiating with WI Pei-Fu we
added the stipulation that WI should
Withdraw his troops from Hupeh and
Human. WI Pei refused.
Working With WI
Now it must be explained thatun-
kown to the general public we had
been working with WI Pei-Fu for
the last. five years. Ali this time
WI had man named Chang Tso-
Pen attached to DR.. Sun, carrying
letters to and from DR.. Sun and act
ing as general intermediary. We
did not add special terms to make
agreement harder with him, but be-
cause of a special situation which has
arisen.
1T will be remembered that dur
ing last summer the principal super
Tuchuns in China held conference
at Tientsin, including Chang Tso-
Ling of the Fengtien party. WI Pei
Fu and Tsao Kun Of the Chilli par
ty, and Wang Chan Yuan. military
governor OF Hupeh and Human.
Shortly after this conference the peo-
pie of Hupeh and Human planned to
drive Wang Chan Yuan from pow
cr. WI Pei-Fu promised to aid;
especially he promised to help the
peoples armies of Hupth and Hu-
nan. We furnished these armies,
money and appointed Wu's emissary
with US, Chang Tso-Pen, as their
commander in chief. But what hap
pened? Wang was driven out, but
no sooner was he gone than WI
Pei-Fu occupied these two provinces
himself and had himself appointed by
the Pekin government as inspector
general of Human and Hupeh.
This was treachery and naturally
when we came to deal with WI Pei
Flu in the present instance we in
sisted. that he live pto the original
terms OF our agreement and hand
over the two provinces he was occu-
pying by force to the rightful peoples
armies OF those. provinces. We had
no intention of making harder terms
for ~Wu than for Chang-only to
make WI live up to previous bar
