GOMPERS THINKS
STRAW MAN SENT
HARDING LETTER
Labor Head Disclaims ]. Cleve
Dean as Representing
American Labor.

NEW YORK, July 27.-CBy A. P.l
That a man OF straw fict.-
tious parsonage without official
standing in labor circles-sent Pres'i
Harding the message which Wednes-
day night drew a lengthy reply from
the white house. reiterating the gov
ernment's position on the rail and
coal strikes, was the belief expressed
here Thursday by samuel Gompers
president Of the American Federation
OF Labor.
The message TO Mr.. Harding pre-
dicted that Ito attempt TO operate
the mines or the railroads by military
forces, or to attempt TO draft men"
would result IL thes approach Of the
long predicted war between capital
and labor" II was signed -. Cleve
Dean, chairman. Railway Employees
Publicity association"
The president addressed a reply to
the alleged author of the message. in
which he said in part: II you mean
TO challenge the Righteousness of
free men to be protected in their
lawful pursuits against interference
and violence, / will be glad 20 join
you in submitting that question TO
the decision of the American people. d"
Mr.. GOmpers expressed surprise
that the administration should have
shown such concern over the J. Cleve
Dean message as to have replied to
1t, especially, since the labor leader
asserted, the white house apparently
was ''all in the dark" as to the iden-
uty of the sender or his capacity in
official circles Of organized labor.
The white house called me yes
terday, asking If I knew this man"
said Mr.. GOmpers. Il told them I
did not, and had no record of him
as an official Of American labor. I
am positive Of one thing. and that is
that the author Of the letter 70 Pres't
Harding is not chairman of the Rail
way Employees Publicity association.
The longer I think about it. the more
/ am convinced that j. Cleve Dean
was just a straw man set up nv
interested persons for purpose
which should be plainly evident"

RECIPROCAL RIGHT
TO SEARCH SHIPS
PROPOSED BY U. S
Seeks Agreement with Britain
TO Examine Vessels Out
side Smile Limit.

WASHINGTON, July IA re-
ciprocaI agreement under which
both the United States and Great
Britain would be permitted to
search one another's merchant ships
in certain zones outside the three
mile limit, forms the basis If the
plan which has been suggested TO
the British government by Sec'y
Hughes TO prevent rum runners
from approaching American shores.
AS outlined Thursday in authori-
tative quarters here the recent Anne
rican note 10 London brought for
ward this proposal in a wholly
tentative manner, without claiming
any right 10 hold up British ship
ping beyond the three mile line un-
less a similar privilege as regards
American shipping was granted TO
British officials. The secretary's
was said TO treat
the reciprocal search p'al as stand
ing outside international law but to
be desirable as a spsc al arr nge
ncr.t because OF the difficulties OF
enforcing the prohibition law of the
United States.
In order TO make the agreement
fully reprocal IL was said, the
right 10 search IN the proposed
zones along the American and
British coasts would be uncon-
ditional. Under the plan any sus
pected British vessel could be stop
ped and examined within the extra
legal American zone for liquor or
any other evidences Of Illegal rur-
poses. while the same broad priv
ilege would apply 20 American yes
sells in the British zone regardless
OF what might be the cause OF sus-
picion.
London dispatches indicating that
the proposal had not met with
favorable reception among British
officials apparently caused no sur
prise here. the state department
having anticipated that its sugges-
ton might be interpreted as an in
fringement on the well-established
2f freedom on the TiSh
seas
