Moran of New Haven, president of
the Southern New England Tele-
phone company. operating in Con-
necticut, appeared as a witness today
in the public service commission in
vestigation of the affairs of the New
York Telephone company. Mr.. Mora n
declared that. although his company
operated under a license agreement
with the American Telephone and
Telegraph company. and received the
same services from the American
company as did the New York COM
pany, approximately only one-thrd
of his company's stock was held by
the American company.
Deputy Attorney General Thomas
r. Pcnnell, appearing for the state.
frequently interrupted Mr.. Moran
testimony on the relations ietween
the two companies. with objections
as TO its admissibility. Mr. Moran
was permitted to tell that the ser
vices rendered the New England
company by the American company
were similar to those rendered the
New York company and that the
same percentage of revenues We're
paid in either case The witness
also testified that although his COM
pany had the right to terminate the
contract at any time. no such action
was ever contemplated as the rola.
tionship was too valuable. In his
opinion he testified. the service OF
the Anne rican company was absolute

Charge Big Interests
Plan to Crush Union
Labor of Country

New York, March 23.-Charges that
'big business and so-called American
ism organizations Of the country are
engaged in a deliberate attempt to
crush organized labor were made
here today by John L. Lewis. pres
ident of the United Mine Workers OF
America.
Mr.. Lewis statement came at the
close of three-day session OF the
mine owners and workers wage arbi-
tration committee, which ended with
out any agreement which would halt
the impending strike of anthracite
and bituminous miners April l.
Agreement of miners and operators
upon a wage scale for the three
thousand anthracite men who will
maintain colliery properties while the
strike is in progress was the sole re-
suit of today's session. This agree
ment was in the form of contract
stipulating that the three thousand
men shall receive the present scale
while the strike is on. their wages for
the strike period to be governed re-
troactively by the scale upon which
settlement of the strike shall be bas-
cd
The committee Of eight adjourned
tonight to permit Mr.. Lewis and the
dozen anthracite chiefs chosen s dis
trict representatives to attend con-
ference of the general policies COM
mittee of strike was and means
scheduled to begin at Cleveland to-
morrow.
Mr.. Lewis charges that organiza-
tio-s throughout the country were
working to overthrow the unions was
made in connection with an an
nouncement that the rail and miners
protective alliance had been formed to
combat such an attempt.
THE protective alliance. with a
present membership of 215,000 rail-
road men and miners, is an organiza- =
ton to preserve the integrity of the
associations attacked Mr.. Lewis as
serted 'It will seek to promote the
welfare of the unions and to fight in
! f1uences which threaten to destory or
jeopardize their continuation.
! Among the foes Of the United Mine
Workers and other affiliated unions,
! he said. We're the National Chamber
/ Of Commerce. the United States Steel
Corporation, Associations of Mine OPP
orators and sponsors of the American
Plan, which he characterized as
wholly un-Amcrican."

MILLIONS DIE
Before Next Harvest
in Russia
Estimate Made in Almost Hopelessly
Chaotic Land = Money Is Waste
Paper-Hope for Commercial Un-
ion

Washington. March c3-Striking
evidence of the chaotic and almost
impossible condition under which
business now is being conducted IN
Russia, appears in letter received
here by a diplomatic oficer from a
representative in Constantinople OF
one of the largest English wholesale
companies doing business in the Le-
want. Among the statements are
these:
I'VE are trying to do business with
the soviets. Our last venture was to
send goods to Rostov and we received
in part payment: American paper
dollars, American gold Ga small
amounO, American checks (Near
East Express and others), American
exchange (bankers), English notes
and checks, Turkish gold, checks and
paper notes, French notes and checks,
and Russian gold rubles.
"Of the checks not one was over
40 pounds sterling and there were
five different currencies and about as
many different rates Of exchange.
We also had given to US wool, CUTS,
horsehair, pigs bristles, and cement,
and after these are sold we credit
them with the different amounts.
1T is a hopeless task and we only
continue because we too are making
efforts to pull together these people
and to seek commercial union.
One of our statesmen was there
for nearly three months. He reports
them as hopeless in their methods.
They estimate that before next har-
vest 20,000O00 people will have died
from want of nutrition.
II think it will end eventually in
some sort of sea coast control of
some districts by corporate tions in
terested and protected by their own
troops or employed troops. preferably
Russians. Exchange at Tiflis has
como beyond repair. 1t is now about
2.500,o0 to pound sterling. It will
eventually have to be sold as waste
paper and weighed as such"

"Woman's honored place IN our

woman would lose her place in the
social scale and man would enslaVe
her once more But this high and
exalted place TO which women has

that woman is mans moral superior.
There is nothing inherently finer or
