DAVIS. DEFENDS
G.. D. p. ALIEN LAWS
Democrats Blamed For Work
ingman's Plight After War.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Oct. l.
Secretary of Labor James j. Davis IN
an address at the memorial auditorium
here tonight praised restricted immt-
grafton legislation adopted by the re-
publican majority in congress and rap
ped democratic misrule, declaring that
because of failure to deal properly with
the industrial conditions at the close OF
the World war there were five million
American workmen walking the streets.
Secretary Davis said that at the end
of hostilities there were literally mil
lions of husky, two-fisted European
workers eager to come to the United
States and THIS country was threatened
with a flood of alien workers ready and
willing to work for almost any wage
and that it was the Republican party
which had the courage to meet this in
vasion and pass the necessary legisla-
ton to protect American labor.
In an interview with newspaper men
before his address, Secretary Davis at
tackled the La Toilette progressive
movement, declaring that it was smoke
screen for socialism and had for its
purpose the destruction of the American
constitution by indirection.
Secretary Davis was introduced by
Mrs. Mary Giles Howard, republican
candidate for congress from the Third
Tennessee district.

fspeciaI Leased Wire to Age, Heraldl
GENEVA, Oct. despite
the first flush of enthusiasm
over an apparently acceptable
compromise, ifis now realized
that Japan's amendments to
the disarmament, arbitration
and security protocol now be-
fore the League of Nations as
esenbly may yet wreck the
elaborate plan by which the
league hopes to outlaw war
and make world peace impera-
tive.
informed observers here are
frankly pessimistic over the
situation. They,fear that the
amendments to the protocol,
which Japan forced through IN
order to bring her emigration
problem within the scope OF
the league, will offend the
United States and make more
remote any chances that the
United States may join the
league.
They fear also that the amendments
will be unacceptable to the British 60
nnfnions, thus possibly endangering APP
prevail Of the protocol and eventually
kiIlinr plans for the disarmament con-
ference which the protocol provides.
Not Yet Bound
Political observers emphasize the TACT
that the text of the protocol has Just
arrived in London and that no action
Of any sort has as vet been decided
upon, serious talk Of the possibility Of
the amendments resulting in rejection
Of the protocol by pariiaments OF
Britain and other countries, however,
continues. 1t must be emphasized that
the signatures of the Geneva delegates
do not bind any nation, but must sub
sequently be approved.
However, when Lord Parmoor spoke
before the assembly late Wednesday he
told the body that the English delega-
ton to the assembly would make every
effort to secure the ratification of the
protocol by England. Parmoor declared
that the only alternative to war is the
system Of general arbitration which the
protocol provides.
THE world is at present ready for
it, he said, "but its success depends
largely on the degree that it can enforce
acceptance of arbitration and obedience
To- arbitration.
