Glasgow, Sept. % h.-Seventy lives
are believed TO have boon lost early to-
day, in one Of the worst coIIiery disas-
ters in the history Of the Scotch mines,
in which a deep pit at the James Nimmo
C0mpany's coiliery near Falkirk, was
flooded. The water which flooded the
pit broke through the walls of an
adjoining pit which had not been used
for many years. The active pit was
flooded so quickly that there was no OF
portuuity to warn the miners. They had
NJ chance to get to the pithead and only
one man escaped after the thrush of
water begun. Frantic relatives OF the
victims rushed to the pithead, at which
re5cuers hastily began work, but little
if any hope was entertained of saving
any of the unfortunates.

Lieutenant Governor Ed Trap, one of
the most bitter enemies of the league
in the state.
That the farmer-labOr movement
will in turn capitalize upon the ire
mendouse popularity of George Will
son by running him for the senate, is
apparent at this time. Walton's re-
moval of the Wilson board has defin-
itely alienated the anti-Ku Klux vote
of the state, inasmuch as it is recog-
nized as a concession to the Khan
which, heretofore has dominated all
the educational institutions OF Okla
homa
The Oklahoma Leader, labor paper,
has definitely, broken with the govern
or.
Governor Walton's new plan for
"direct dealing with the people is
characterized by the Leader as a
company union. He attempted at a
previous date to organize a council of
! u" which, it was then charged, was
designed to displace the league but
which the governor smoothed over by
saying it was merely an organization
20 gain support for certain economic
organizations. To this he invited the
cooperative marketing organizations
the labor groups and the farmer or
carnations. This body refused to or
ganize permanently and adjourned
without taking any action.
The governor now admits that he
contemplates the elimination of the
league by a new council of II" to be
composed of the elected heads of the
state federation of labor, mine work
ers' union, farm labor union, fanners
union and the international repre-
sentatives of the railroad brother

Dor and the farm unions, as well as

expected to decline to take part in this

parently counts on the support Of the
outgoing president of the state feder-
alton of labor and the newly chosen
head OF the farm-labor union.
The governor charges that the
league board is no longer representa-
tive OF the farmer-labor element. He
bases this on the fact that the boarC

WASHINGTON.-Acting in a hgh

the statement OF William n. Smelzer,
chairman Of the departmolt's board
of review, in deportation cases when
Mary Gertrude Fendall, executive sec
rotary of the joint amnesty committee
protested against increasing the bail
of the six men from $1,000 to $1,000
The six are: Richard Brazier, Brit
ish; Joe Salm, Rumanian; Peter Green
Czchoslavak; J. A. Macdonald, Can
adam; Don Sheridan, British; James
Slovik, Russian. They have not been
out of Leavenworth since their sent
ences were committed.
They will be deported without any
hearing unless habes corpus proceed
ings prevent it. +. J. Henning, acting
secretary of labor, in the absence OF
Secretary Davis in Europe, appears
contemptuous of the law in the mat
ter When explanation of his order
was demanded he gave the fiimsy ex-
cuse that the government was unable
to secure any information about the
history of the six men. When 1t was
called to his attention thu such infor.
nation had been given the government
when the men were arrested, Hennine
repeated that he had wired for then
immediate removal to Ellis Island.
The combinations issued by the
president carried no deportation or
ders in the six cases. Henning is ac

AUSTRALIANS WIN
FOURTH VICTORY
QUEENSLAND LABOR PARTY IS
VICTOR ONCE MORE - WILL
CONTROL GOVT.

BRISBANE, Queensland-Fo the
fourth time in succession the Labor
party has swept the polls in the gen
eral elections in the state of Queens
land. This is perhaps the first time
in the history of world politics that a
party has maintained its identify thru
four successive parliaments without
resorting to coalition with the other
parties. The big majroities given to
the labor government of Queensland
means that for II years. Queensland is
to have continuous labor rule. An
other record established was that the
lator party did not lose a single seat,
but made gains from its opponents.
The fight was waged on a straight
out capitalism against the So
cialization of industry, production, dis
tribution and exchange. The anti
labor parties called the labor policy of
specialization the red objective Of Boil
shevik policy, and asserted that vic
tory for labor would be interpreted as
a decision of the electors in favor OF
soviet rule. And labor won, smashing
down its opponen,suin all directions.

FARM BUREAU
and IMMIGRATION

CHICAGO-Reports circulated in

ask congress to let down the bars
against migrant farm labor are de-
MED by President o. r. Bradfute.
"The papers have magnifed an in
jury from one Of our state bureaus
into a decision Of the national feder-
ation," Bradfute says. "The Mime
sofa bureau submitted a plan to inn
port farm laborers from Russia and
Czecho=SlovalIia to the bureaus in
the other states and to us for com

that an ascertained shortage Of farm

migration, but we are not acting in
that direction now"

GOV. WALTON
KNIFES FARM-LABOR
By ERNEST R. CHAMBERLAIN
Federated Press Staff Correspondent

OKLAHOMA CTEY-Governor j.
c. Walton, unable to dominate the
Farmer-Labor Reconstruction League
for Oklahoma, has definitely broken
with that organization, which elected
him, and announces that he will go
direct" to the people without consid-
ering the executive board of the
league.
First evidence of the break came
with the discharge of two league
members of the board of agriculture
and the removal of George Wilson as
president of the Oklahoma A. & M.
college, following the bitter attack of
the American Legion upon Wilson.
The dismissal of the Wilson board of
agriculture followed the discharge of
Joe Strain, league member, who had
been named as state bank commission
er, and the governors complete sub
mission to the dictatiOn of the anti
league attorney general and the anti
league president of the board of agri-
culture.
Governor Walton for some time has
wavered between the two elements of
the Democratic party, threatened with
impeachment by the majority Of the
legislature, which the league never
controlled, and apparently reluctant to
abandon the farmer-labor backing
But the pressure has been TOO great
and subsequent developments may re-
veal the exact nature of the real fore
es which brought about Walton's
change of front.
Walton has been under IRE from or
gained labor, due to his failure to put
a stop to the contract labor system at
the state penitentiary, as promised
and his failure to demand the union
label on state printing.
Farm and labor leaders have resent
ed the inzuence of q coterie Of corpor-
alton lawyers who have been foremost
in the governors eounsels. Recently
the tremendous fight of the farmer
labor organizations to place George
Wilson at the head of the state agri-
cultural college brought the governor
into line with farmer-labor.
But his decision was changed on the
Wilson matter by his sudden decision
TO run for the senate in two years
The league denounced this move, as il
would leave the governors chair to
