wood Committee to-day when asked
by Samuel Untermyer if he didn't
see the Committee must put through
legislation giving to members and
employers a court review of conduct
of the unions.
"Why won't we?" shouted Mr..
Untermyer. ''Do you mean you have
such political power through union

legislators-that you can prevent it %

was insulting him.

in their struggle to better their COM

Mr.. Untermyer asked how Mr.
G0mpers would regard a Federal La
Dor Commission with powers similar
to those of the Federal Trade Com
mission and the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
THE American Federation of Labor

power to enforce its edicts among its

But the local unions have abso-

comment.
"In some cases." said Mr..
Gompers.
Mr.. Gompers admitted that the
function of the A. +. of L. over
subordinate bodies was "merely ad-
Visory, conciliatory and declaratory."
Mr.. Tntermyer was seeking to
show that the State should force the
union to incorporate so that it could
be held responsible, as a corporation,
through the courts, for illegal or un-
fair actions.
Mr.. Gompers's utterance was re-
garded as an admission that the A. f.
OF L. and the international unions in
the various trades have little or no
authority to make 'lawless locals"
behave themselves.

had fixed in its mind misconceptions
due to his appearance on the stand

RUSSIANS AWAIT
MOSCOW DECISION
ON ALLIED TERMS

GENOA, May 4 (Associated Press)
The Soviet representatives here an
nounced to-day that the terms of the
Allied note to Russia had been tele.
graphed to Moscow, says the Ex-
change Telegraph, which adds:
at Is stated that possibly Premier
Lenin will accept, demanding stimuli
taneously full recognition"
Frances decision to support the
opposition of Belgium to the private
property clause of the memorandum
sent the Russians was announced to-
day by the French delegation here on
receipt of official information from
Paris. 1t was added that Vice Prem
ier Barthou, head of the delegation,
would hasten his return to Genoa, ar
riving here Saturday.
French representatives here con-
ceded to-day that the more the prop
erty clause Is amended to satisfy Bel
gium the less satisfactory will 1t be-
come to the Soviet Government and,
therefore, as the question of national
ized property Is a fundamental one
for the Soviet further changes are
liable to increase the difficulties of
ine negotiations.
Belgium desires more definite as
surances that property taken over by
the Soviet Government will be re-
turned to its foreign owners and not
Incorporated in Russian companies.
The Soviet delegates said the
financial help offered by the Allied
memorandum was disappointing and
inadequate.
They admitted, says the Exchange
Telegraph correspondent, they were
considering various offers for oil con-
eessions, which they said constituted
nor Russia a basis of future interna-
tional policy, and they were studying
plan to divide the Baku and
Gronzy fields into four or five zones,
one of which the Soviet would oper-
ate, granting concessions on the
others to rival national groups such
as the American, British, Belgian
fnd French. This, however, the
Soviet delegates said, would be con-
ditional upon de jure recognition and
sfdeouate financial heIn.

WANAMAKER QUITS
ALL THE MAYORS
CIVIC COMMITTEES
Understood He Will Retain
His Post as Special Deputy
Police Commissioner.

Rodman Wanamaker, who has al.
ways referred to Mayor Hylan a.
John Faithful Hylan, has resigned
from the Mayors most prominent
committees on which he served a,
Chairman. These consisted of the
Mayors Committee on Reception tC
Distinguished Guests, the Mayors
Committee on Public Welfare, the
Mayors Committee on Permanent
War Memorial and the Municipal
Wireless Broadcasting Committee.
The letter OF resignation, which
has created a decided stir in official
circles, was given out to-day by
Mayor Hylan and was undated. After
reporters had made many efforts to
find out when the letter was written
they received a pink slip of paper
from the Mayors Office with the in =
scription: Dec. 81, 1921, date of
Wanamaker letter"
Since that date Mr.. Wanamaker
has been very active in the affairs OF
the committees.
Several hours after the Wanamaker
letter had been made public, Mayor
Hylan said:
at is ridiculous to assume that
there has been o break between Mr..
Wanamaker and myself. The facts
are that he is very busy man and
he has accepted many burdens on
committees when | requested him to.
Some of these committees can be han
died by other men and | am asking
Mr.. Wanamaker to retain his activity
with some of the committees, such as
the Radio Committee. | am confident
that Mr.. .Wanamaker will accede to
my request and continue to work on
at least some of the committees. I'm
writing him a letter embodying such
a request"
Among the prominent members of
the Permanent War Memorial Com,
mittee which ceases to exist with the
resignation of Mr.. Wanamaker were
former Fire Commissioner Robert
John Agar, Brig. Gen.

Famous Classical d an C e r
Becomes Bride of Serge
Esenin in Moscow.

MOSCOW, May 4.-Isadora Dun
can. famous dancer. was married here
yesterday to Serge Esenin, Russian
"lmagist" poet, twenty-seven years
old.
In an interview published recently
lsadora Duncan declared she intended
to stay in Russia because of the spIen-
did opportunities at her disposal tc
teach children aesthetic dancing. AT
that time there was no intimation that
she considered marriage, or that love
might have anything to do with her
determination to remain within the
Soviet domain.
When she took over the Soviet Ma
tional School of Dancing, Miss Dun
can declared she did so in the "hope
Of reconciling the one and only one
true art OF dancing with the one and
only ideal Government. She is under
the protection of the Soviet officials,
coming directly under the supervision
Of LunacharsiY, Commissar of Edu-
cation.
Miss Duncan was one of the first
proponents of aesthetic dancing' in
this country. Her first appearance in
loose, tilmy garb and with bare feet
evoked considerable comment. Even
Berlin barred her performances Later,
Miss Duncan devoted most of her
attention to teaching. Early morn
ing visitors to Central Park and
through the suburbs frequently caught
slimpses of the young girl students
expressing Greek allegory in the form
of mining.

 The clerks were cut cents an hour in the case of those who have had two years or more experience, and 4 cents for others, with mini mum starting salary of $6O month for beginners.

CHICAGO, July 6.-Wage slashes totaling $135, 100000 annually went into effect on the railroads of the country July l. There are approxi- mately 1,425,O0O railway workers in the service at present, but probably not more than one million of these will feel the cut in their pay env- lopes.
 Three decisions of the United States Railroad Labor Board during the last month and a half form the basis for the wage reductions. Sev- eral classes of employees, notably the engineers, firemen, conductors and trainmen, were not included in the reductions and no decision has yet been issued for one other group the telegraphers, and the train dispatches suffered no reduction whatever.
 The railway employees were not hit as hard this year as when the board cut the wages of all workers last year a total of 50,000000. The cuts ranged from one to nine cents an hour for various classes of work CTS, while certain groups of semi official and supervisory employees es- capped the pruning knife entirely.
