In Daugherty Impeachment
Game Cause Keller's
Withdrawal

Washington-Th house judiciary
committee has adjourned and will sub
nit its report on the Daugherty i'm.
peachment proceedings to the house
after the holidays. 1t is agreed thai
the committee will find for Daugh.
erty.
The proceedings ended when Con
gressman Keller, author of the i'm.
peachment, withdrew from the case
because of glaring favoritism to
Daugherty by the lame ducks" on the
committee. The committee then sub
poened Mr.. Keller, but he ignored the
call. Jackson H. Ralston, counsel for
the A. F. of L., frankly told the com
mittee he advised Mr. Keller they
have no jurisdiction over him.
Some of the lame ducks" who
would bluff witnesses were shocked al
this frank statement by Mr. Ralston
and various punishments were recon-
luellucu lOI bIG uISODcQlGlI CONGRESS-
man. One of the committee finally
suggested that Mr.. Ralston be asked
for his authority for such advice. The
A. f. of L. counsel accepted the invi-
tation, and for Is minutes proceeded
to explain to these lawyers the dan
gerous precedent they were contem-
plating. When the rights of congress-
men We're enumerated, the committee
tactfully referred the matter to sub
committee.
A feature of the proceedings was
testimony by Mr.. Daugherty's assist
ants on how earnestly he is prose
cutting big business.
Opponents of Daugherty are not
depressed at the outcome They show
that Ballinger, in President Talft's
cabinet, was whitewashed as was
SenatoEs Newberry.

EXCLUSION
OF Union Members From Pay
Rolls of Bay State Company
Upheld by Supreme Court

Special Dispatch TO the Enquirer.
Boston, Mass, January 9.-The
Massachusetts supreme court today
decided that the Moore Drop Forge
Company, of Springfield, had a right
to make it conditional upon those en-
tering its employ that they should
not remain members of labor union.
In 1921, following settlement of a
strike, the company insisted that men
re-entering its employ sign individual
contracts stating that they were not
members of union. This led to IN
reference, followed by bill in equity
against the unions concerned.
The Supreme court rule affirms the
report of Edward L. Shaw, as special
master, on whose report the defend
ants were enjoined.

SEAMEN'S Law
LIBELS SLOWLY
LOSING FORCE

Washington.-In debate on the
ship subsidy bill, Senator King, of
Utah, declared that opposition to the
La Toilette seamen's law is camou-
fage and that the wages of American
seamen are not high and are not re-
sponsible for the present condition of
the American merchant marine.
GAS I recall the testimony, conced-
ing all the claims made by the pro-
ponents of this bill and those who
urge that the wage question cuts a
very important figure in the discus
sion of that question" said Senator
King, that position is scarcely ten
able and not borne out by the facts,
because even if the wage distinctions
are as they contend, it would make
a difference of only about per cent
in operating expenses; and that in
cludes, as | understand, the expenses
involved in the maintenance of very
high-salaried clerical force and ad-
ministrative force, which we find in
many of these corporations.
$50 | think the question of wages
is a mere camoufage urged by a good
many of the men who are insisting
upon this subsidy.
American seamen are now paid
very low wages-many of them $40
per month, some of them perhaps less
than that, and the general efficiency
of the American seamen, | think, is
recognized"
Following this statement Senator
Dial, of South Carolina, said: II
thank the senator from Utah. | will
confess that before we had these hear
ings, and before looking into the sub
ject, | thought that the wages were
out of proportion, but after thor
ough investigation | find the condi-
ton to be exactly as the senator from
Utah states"
