FRANTIC BOSSES START 'ONE-BIG-
 UNION" MOVE

Washington, Aug. 18-President Gompers has made public a copy of a general call to employers through out the country to rally to the aid of railway managers in smashing the shop mems strike. The call for an employers "one big union" is issued by the national industrial council, consisting of a score of employers organizations, and is as follows:
 'The railway strike will be won if organized industry acts immediately and effectively. Situation as much a test of our ability as of railway ex- ecutives. Immediate needs are, first, volume expression associations, but particularly individuals, to president sustaining position railroads on seni- ority question and urging administra- ton support; second, immediate con ference with your local railway ofic- , ials for purpose assist them to man shops; third, pressure on presidents roads your territory to stand firm on position to date. We speak advised | ly; above suggested actions imper- ative and permit no delay. Urgently request wire reply. National Indus trial Council"
 This call to the business interests of the, county can be summed up as follows:
 Flood President Harding with tele- grams that he is wrong and the rail road managers are right on the semi ority question.
 ] Confer with local railroad officials and aid them to man shops. Loan them some of your free and inde- pendents" if possible.
 Put pressure on railroad officials in your vicinity to stand firm against , the shop men.
 'We, speak advisedly," or in otYer words, we know the shop men will win If you don't act. | The telegram, according to Presi- dent Gompers, has been sent to every employers association in the country l to chambers of commerce, to civic bodies and other organizations in ar effort to rally all anti-union employ ing interests to the support of the
 small group of railroad executives who dominate the association of railway executives. The telegram makes clear the character of the campaign being waged against the unions, said Presi- dent Gompers.

RECORDS ARE STOLEN
 BY ANTI-UNIONISTS

Toledo, Ohio, Aug. 18-In a speech in this city on "The Courts and the Poor," William F. Clarke, president of the American Flint Glass Workers Union, stated that records in the unions office were stolen to aid the Eagle Glass Company of West Virginia in it's fight against the union.
 Not being satisfied with keeping Us (off1cers of the union) out of West Virginia, for approximately seven years, the attorneys in the case came to Toledo and secured other legal assistance"
 The officers of the union were haled before Federal Judge Killets and were charged with practically every crime imaginable.
 We answered that we did not know what they were talking about, but if, they would make their com plaint in direct manner we would make answer thereto" said President Clarke.
 ''When we appeared in court we were confronted with upwards of 200 photographs of records which had been stolen from our office in the Ohio building in this city. These records had been photographed and subsequently returned to our files. l will not now undertake to name the thief, yet with all of their damnable acts we challenge the opposition to sustain their charges. We are, how ever, thankful that in Judge ,Killets we found one who had the courage to render a rebuke to the opposing counsel" "

LEGION COMMANDER
 ON STRIKE, EVICTED

International Labor News Service.
 Washington, D. C., Aug. 18.- Wholesale eviction of textile work CTS occupying tenements Is now the method of coercion adopted to force strikers back to the textile mills in Rhode Island. The inhu- manity of the situation is enhanced by the fact that, under an obso- lete law exhumed by attorneys for Goddard Bros. in Lonsdale, evic- tions are made without notice or court order.
 Consequently hundreds of fami1- eis are now living in tents hastily constructed by the United Textile Workers.
 Among those evicted is the commander of Cumberalnd Post of the American Legion, one of the strikers.
 At night the streets are piled high with furniture surrounded by weeping women and children.
 A blind boy, one of a family of nine, insisted on having a cheap phonograph, but his own, next to him where he sat on the curbstone so that he could play "The End of a Perfect Day.

HARDING MAKES PLEA
Would Return to the Convention
System.
Would Benefit the Party, He Declares
Calls Lincoln "the Great
Partisan"

Washington, Feb. 10. - President
Harding pleaded for the return Of the
convention system in addressing the
Lincoln day banquet of the League Of
Republican Clubs here. Characterlzing
Lincoln as the great partisan OF
American history, Harding launched
an appeal for strict party loyalty.
"I'l dare say 1T crave the return
Of intelligent conventions the Presi-
dent continued. 81 would rather have
men appeal for popular support en-
the declaration of a responsible con
yentlon than on the appeal Of man
to his individual locality.
81 had rather trust the declaration
of party I'm n national convention, eX.
pressing the conscience Of It's men,
bership than the ephemeral whlms OF
the passing moment"
He paid his respects to party frrec-
oncllables" by declaring he would
rather see little more Of tie partl-
sanship Of Lincoln's day than the aloof-
ness of the kind shown recently.
81 believe in political parties" he
said IF | could express one outstnnd-
ing wish | would rather have a little
more of the outstanding party spirit
Of Lincoln than the kind we have
sometimes nowadays
Lincoln 5eliev. In party dictum
and party policy. Lincoln was the
great partisan. No greater or better
Republican ever lived He believed
that the greatest possibilities for SER
vice were In political parties.
