BERLIN AND WASHINGTON
AGREE

A great number of OF people
were interested in the announce
ment that the Washington and
Berlin governments had entered
into an agreement-an executive
agreemeut-whereby two Com
miSSioners and an umpire, would
sit in judgement upon the claims
OF American citizens against the
Germans and their government.
1t was officially announced that
Associate Justice Day OF the Unit
ed States Supreme court, would
serve as umpire, this course being
agreeable to both governments.
Apparently this is one proposal
with respect to which Republicans
who have u voice in shaping events
in Washington have found it pos
sible to agree. Even Mr.. Borah
has thus far failed to raise a dis
senting voice. But many Demo-
Gratis are critical, and It's just pos
Sible that the act OF the Admins
tration in agreeing with Berlin to
set up this Commission, the claims
against Germany and the counter
claims, together with the facts
surrounding the work OF the Alien
property Custodian, will yet figure
as an issue i'll the approaching Con
gresSional campaigns, if-not III the
next Presidential campaign.
Following the formal announce
ment Of the Washiugton-Berlin
agreement MIR. Overman, OF
North Carolina declared to the
Senate that the State Department
had sought to iorcStall action by
Congress in dealing with the
claims in question, and he queS-
toned both the wisdom and the
validity of what had been done.
Senator Underwood, who some
time ago initiated some legislation
dealing with the American and
German claims growing out OF the
war, was manileStly diSpleased
over the turn OF affairs.
There can be little discussion OF
the subject at this time, because
the Senate has agreed to dispose OF
the tariff bill at the first moment
possible, but a number OF Demo
cratic Senators served notice that
they would not permit the matter
TO rest where it is at present. For
one thing they are certain to chal-
leuge the ConStitutionahty OF the
act OF the State Department in
seeking to dispose of this matter
without asking the advice and con-
sent of Congress.
The fact has not been given
publicity, but The Gazette under
stands that Mr.. Underwood is to
address d formal letter to the Judi
ciary committee. which will ac-
centuate the Constitutional phase
OF the Administrators conduct,
and the position will be taken that
no fine lines of distinction should
be drawn between Executive
agreements and treaties, in the ef-
fort to obviate the necessity Of
consulting the Senate. Some
Democrats revolt at the idea. too,
OF having a German sit in judy
ment ON claims growing out of the
sinking Of the Lusitiania. They
think that provisions OF the I'm
derwood bill should be accepted
which would make available the
property seized by the Alien prop
erty custodian in settling Ameri-
can claims. This course was au-
thorized by the treaty OF Yer
sailles.
1t must be remembered, how
ever, that the Versailles treaty has

IRON MOLDERS UNION NO. 152

At the last regular meeting of Iron
Molders Union No. 1852 representa-
tive of the Trades and Labor Assem-
bly, was granted permission to speak
on the proposition of building a new
high school, and after listening to a
very fine talk our members were
enthusiastic for the new building and
voted unanimous in its favor. Our
delegates were instructed to request
the Trades Assembly to use its in
fiuence with the school board to have
inserted in the contract for the build
ing that all work be done by HOME
ORGANIZED LABOR, and as far as
possible, to patroniZe home labor and
home merchants, otherwise we can
rot support the proposition. No open
shop for US. The molders can furnish
the board with the names of COM
panies who make union school seats.
One other important matter came
before our meeting, and that was the
Telephone Company's proposition.
After some debate, and some of it
was real warm, we came TO the COR
cluson that we would never get back
to NORMALCY (whatever that ls)
with wages going down and al other
business asking for an increase in
rates, and our members voted to a
man to oppose any advance in tele-
phone rates, and our delegates will
report our action to the Trades As
sembly We also request all other
organized bodies to indorse our action
and ask that our city councilmen will
please take notice.
