LABOR BANK HAS AUSPICIOUS YEAR
 AND BIG ASSETS
First of Workers Controlled Institu- tions Firmly Established
 in New York.

The Federation Bank of New York, 34th street and Eighth avenue, has just reached its first anniversary, press ac- counts accentuating the fact that this bank accumulated $5,500,0OO, more than, ten times its capital and surplus, in one year.
 This is declared to be just the be- ginning of a movement to marshal the enormous savings of workers, not large individually but imposing in the aggre- gate and to lend it to the community and to individuals for projects that have a social purpose. Until labor banks began to sprout up in many places within the last four years, Peter J. Brady, president of this bank points out, workers, farmers and other pro- ducesr put the fifty billion dollars they deposited in banks every year, entirely at the disposal of capitalistic banks and bankers.
 Much of the Federation Banks sue cess Is admitted to be due to the en- terprise and initiative of its president, who Is veteran in the labor move ment. It's composite strength is that of the entire labor movement, and a diversified board of directors, com posed of photo-engraver pattern maker, a carpenter, a textile worker, steamhtter, fireman, an upholster- CT, a longshoreman, brewery work CT, and several lawyers, bankers and business men who gladly offered to serve a labor bank.
 MT. Brady credits much Of the first years success to the good will of in dividual stockholders, of which there are a great number, to the depositors and to the cooperation of the general public
 Expansion of the bank is looked for ward to. It is already serving na tional and local clientage.
 The growing habit of banking by mail and the development of the prac- tice of going to the bank for informa- tion Or all subjects. which have to do with finance is rapidly making the Federation Bank of New York a clear ing house of information as we'll as depository for surplus funds of many organizations, Its strength and so1i- darlty IS testified to by the additional fact that compliance with the most
 rigid requirements makes it guardian

SCIENCE CHURCH
 DENIES LEISURE
No New Society, Declares Judge
 Clifford P. Smith

BOSTON, June 23.-Recenty repub- lished statements suggesting that new society had been formed through recent assertions of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, have been challenged as misleading. An announcement on June 15 was that the Christian Science Parent Church of the New Generation, formed by a dissenting minority, had held its first services here on that day.
 Speaking for the committee on publi- cation of the Frist Church of Christ, Scientist, Judge Cliord P. Smith today said:
 ''The so-called Christian Science Par ent Church of the New Generation is nothing new. Under slightly different names it has been advertised intermit- tently for more than ten years. Mrs. Anna c. Bill, who organized it, with drew from the Mother church of Chris tian Science in 1910 while Mrs. Eddy was still active in the Christian Science movement. John V. Dittemore, who is associated with Mrs. Bill in this move ment has been estranged from the church formed by Mrs. Eddy for several years although he did not formally withdraw from it until recently"

ROCKWELL DENIES .DOHENY FINANCED M'ADOO IN RACE
Says Statement Of Re publican Paper Is
 Utter Lie

NEW YORK, June 23.-David l.. Rockwell, manager, of the William G. McAdoo campaign, tonight denied a statement published here today that E. l.. Doheny, the oil man, had contribut- ed $10,O0O or $35,0OO to the McAdoo campaign for president.
 The assertion contained in an article in The New YoYrYk Evenink Post, owned and controlled by the rich re- publican Curtiss interests, that the pre- convention campaign of McAdoo was financed by E. l.. Doheny is, of course, an utter Iie," Mir. Rockwell said. MT. Doheny has not contributed one cent to the McAdoo campaign. Such a fragrant and patent misrepresentation comes from but one cause.-the determination of the predatory interests at all costs to block the nomination of the man whom they justly fear"

Beaten Like An Egg,
 Says Corey OfMcAdoo
Chooses Ralston, Davis Or Underwood As The
 Nominee Rather Than McAdoo Or Smith

RalstOn. Davis. Underwood-whaty you hear means nothing. The delegates will run this convention when they get around to it, because the bosses cannot. They will get round to it after the wind instruments cease tanning, which will be later than tomorrow.
 Big Fight On Klan
 The convention may end the middle of next week. The big fight-big, spelled in red letters-will be on the klan. No one talks of the League of Nations now. It is as forgotten as the Dred Scott de- cision. Wet and dry have ceased to fret. Minor vote catchers have been garbage-canned. The delegates are get ting emotional and sentimental. They vs. intolerance. That means campaign fought on an issue of religious belief as sweetly conducted as such campaigns usually are. Bourke Cochran used to say: "No one was ever persecuted ex- cept to make him good"
 I think there will be an anti-klan plat form by name. l may be wrong, but I believe there will be a majority report by the resolutions committee requiring an anti-klan plank. and that it will be adopted by the convention. know the elder politicians are advising against thds, but the flame of feeling is rising higher with each hour. It is plain kIan and damn everybody on the one side and anti-klan and damn everybody on the other side. Bryan is slated to attack Al Smith and the vets and they are talking physical violence in rebutal Newton Baker Is all set to lead the fight against the klan and he is a woolly bear. When he gets all charged up with convictions he is as venomous as an Arkansas cottonmouth. He's charged.
 There you are. An expression of per. sonal opinion. No McAdoo, no Smith, anti-klan, and hell roaring.

SMITH CONFERS
 WITH DELEGATES FROM q STATES
Manager Roosevelt Re. ports Situation Very
 Encouraging

NEW YORK, June g. (By the As sociated Press) Delegates from 21 states met today with Governor Alfred D. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt, his campaign manager, and discussed questions affecting the governors can didacy and acceptability for the Demo- cratic presidential nomination.
 At the end of the days events, MT. Roosevelt said the series of conferences had been "very encouraging, revealing many unexpected sources of support, for the Smith movement. It was ex- pIained, however, that though the dele gates who called did not in all cases represent the full delegations from the states they represented, they let it be known that Govrnor Smith "had votes in them"
 The states represented, either in whole or in part were named by Mir. Roosevelt as follows: Tennessee, Vir- ginia, North and South Dakota, Ken lucky, Missouri, Washington, Oregon, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi, West Virginia, Maryland, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Maine.
 Governor Smith divided his time to- day between political municipal and state affairs. In the morning he met q state board from Albany and award ed printing contracts for the year. Then brief stay at his campaign headQuar- ters devoted to conference purposes, and he left to review the parade and street departments.
 Returning to headquarters, late in the afternoon, the governor was again besieged by callers and gave his time to them until called to hurry to Mayor John F. Hylan's dinner tonight for New York state and other delegate guests of the city.
 Meanwhile, the New York delegates had been assembled at the Smith head quarters to meet, with MT. Roosevelt and incidentally be instructed by him to do missionary work among other delegations for the interest of the gov ernor's campaign.
 Henry Morgentheau, former ambassa- dor to Turkey, issued a statement from the Smith headquarters urging nomina- tion of New York's chief executive.

By HERBERT COREY

NEW YORK, June 23.--I do not know what is going to happen; neither does anyone else. if they told the truth. That goes forc these mis-caTled bosses. This convention is on the knees of the gods and the delegates. The delegates are to stand. The gods wear goat hair underclothes. The time is ripe for another cross of gold speech. A human catbird could get this convention to fol- low him anywhere. The delega tes would not know where they had gone until they wake up.
 This is merely my personal opinion, of course. It may be wrong, but at least I'll be right out in the open where rocks can be thrown through my front windows. I shall not talk as though I were tanning a stethescope against the breast of eminence. No one knows what is going to happen. The most anyone can say is that Miss Democracy is cutting up freudian.
 Beaten Like Egg
 I think McAdoO is beaten like egg. He has more votes than anyone else 1t this moment, but his voters are acting as though a constable were after them, So far as I can see, the hopping from the other wagons has stopped. That is bad sign for McAdoo-Hke a red razz on fever patient. Also the dirers on the McAdoo blackboard are begin ming to wonder if there isn't "a pack stuffed with hay on some other body s vehicle. That sign is worse.
 Likewise Al SmithAin my opiniOn-I is dead as Wild Bill Hickok. He may run as high as 400 delegates. His friends say so, but that will not win him the nomination. He and McAdoo will kiH each other off, and the man wheC wins the nomination will be as dark fas though dipped in night shade.
 You can hean( anything you want to hear about the name of the nominee

CANADA WATCHES
 M'ADOO BOOM
Change In Tariff Longed For By Northern
 Neighbor

OTTAWA, Ont, June 23.--Canadian politics, is sidetracked and the dominion is pulsating in time with the Demo- cratic convention in New York, owing to a newspaper report circulated throughout Canada that William c. McAdoo would attempt to effect the re- peal of the Fordney- McC Cumber tariff law if he were nominated and elected to the presidency.
 United States politics is dominating popular interest in a manner unpre- cedented in the last 20 years.
 Western Canadian progressives de- clare that the repeal of the present tariff legislation would provide Can ada with the greatest agricultural boom of decade. Political gossip in the federal parliament buildings here centers on McAdoo's chances and the boon his election would be to Canada.
 The present United States tariff blighted Canada's agricultural export trade and especially was detrimental to the vast wheat growing belt of western Canada. The effects of the American barrier have provided a ma jor political issue since the passage of the law and acrimonious. debate in the Canadian parliament and senate often has fared about the question.

 II am leaving the contributing to MT.
