he would blow the city of Wah-
sein to hell unless the Chinese
military authorities marched in
the funeral procession of the
American and then executed the
two junkmen's leaders.
The Chinese junks, which are small
sea and river going craft, are thorn
in the side of the British shipping in
|terests in the orient They can carry
cargoes to all parts of the far east at
prices much below those charged by
the British.
The announced theory Of the Brit
ish commander, who did not accuse
the junkmen's leaders of having any
thing to do directly with the murder,
was that Hawley had been killed by
members of the Junkmen's guild, and
he demanded that they be executed
for that reason. The two leaders were
taken to the place where Hawley's
body was found and executed by a
rife squad in view of the people of
Wahsien.
HaWley was connected WIN an
American company which sold ma
chinery for river boats. The British
commander said that the junkmen re-
scented the introduction of machinery
into their industry, and for that rea-
son killed him. There is no evidence
that this was true.
u. S. Consul Clarence ]. Spiker re-
ported that the inhabitants and Chi
nese military authorities at Wahsien
appeared to be "thoroly awed" by this
example of western justice.
The Chinese who were executed
met death with oriental stoicism and
seemed vastly amused at the whole
proceedings. They were being killed
in order to save their city from bonn
bardment by the wild foreigners, and
made no fuss about it.
This incident serves to recall that
a similar situation-in a milder form
served as the spark which set OFF
the bomb which engulfed Europe in
the world war. 1t was Serbias re-
fusal to submit to permitting the
Austrians to try the murderer of
Archduke Ferdinand which caused
the mobilization of the armies of Eu-
rope and the declaration of war be-
tween the European powers.

dent after the smoke OF the
battle, that had resulted in his
crushing defeat, had blown
away.
In his speech Mayor Hoan had
declared that he would rather
go fishing in Northern Wiscon-
sin than attend the Cleveland
Conference for Progressive Po-
litical Action. But he will no
doubt attend as one of the dele
gates of the national socialist
party.
Quick Rebel in 1920
State Senator Quick is also del
egate to the Cleveland G. P. P. A.
gathering, but states he is doubtful if
he will attend.
"Will you get in touch with the
national executive committee of the
st. Paul Convention that will be in
Cleveland for the meeting of the C.
P. P. Az" he was asked, but was
rather hesitant about giving definite
answer.
Quick was one of the Wisconsin del
egates to the national convention of the
socialist party in New York City, in
1920, that fought for utilization of the
Socialist Party with the Communist
International. At that time he was
considered rank traitor to the major
ity of the delegation that stood by
Bergers anti-Communist position. In
stead of leaving the socialist party in
1921, with the forces organized in the
Committee for the Communist Inter
national" he remained in the socialist
party.

The crushing defeat administered to
Berger's pro-La Toilette position was

socialists had permitted the nomina'

White NIGHT|E
PERILS CHANCE
OF WILSON HEIR
But Wall Street Would
Like to Use Him
Especial to the DAILY Worker.)

NOPSSiot ~ ZIG lazy WOiNCIsy
NEW YORK, June 23.-The
K. K. K. nightshirt that William
G. McAdoo is charged with
lingering is causing Catholic
iackasses to kick up their hind
legs. McAdoo's shrewd choice
of Senator PheIan of California
to place his name in nomination
is expected to Offset much of the
anti-klan opposition, but the
result is a gamble-the more so
because of the khan resolution
to which candidates may be ex-
pected to subscribe.
Wall Street Likes McAdoo.
Wall Street, which will dominate
this convention, is not unfriendly to
Woodrow Wilson's son-in-law. 1t
knows him as the shrewd promoter of
the Hudson tunnel project two de-
cades ago. And during the war Nc
Adoo excited the admiration of the
Street for the prompt way in which
he carried out orders in the Liberty
bond campaigns. Equally was high
finance pleased with McAdoo's sue
cess in keeping railway men from
striking during the war while keeping
their wages well below the sums paid
to war munition mechanics.
That Doheny Record.
But Wall Street is divided as to the
wisdom of putting McAdoo up. There
are doubts whether the Catholic op-
position to McAdoo can be dissipated
and his friendliness to the X. X. X. ex-
planned. Then it is felt that, while
his $250,000 retainer from Doheny
was entirely legitimate from the view
point of the Street, yet the crude pop
ulace might not take such a sane
view.
John w. Davis of the House of Nor
gan fits the Streets ideal far better,
but Davis is not regarded as suffi-
GENTLY strong candidate. McAdoo, on
the other hand, with the smell of the
brotherhood Offices upon him to set
off the oil odor.
Al Smith Wet Roman.
AL Smith has been useful to the
Street in local service, but he is not
taken so seriously as national fig
ure. His Catholicism is not needed
to win the support Of the Catholic
hierarchy. American cardinals and
archbishops are sufficiently broad to
stand by the candidate of their class
They are traditionally Democratic
and while they might vote for the
other capitalist party, there is no dan
ger of their going Farmer-Labor.
On the other hand, Smiths Cathol
icism would ALLEVIATE millions OF hys-
terical Protestant voters. In any
but Catholic state he is out Of the
running.
