WASHINGTON, May SENATOR
Norris, Nebraska. with his vitupera-
tive attack on President Coolidge for
playing politics" with Muscle Shoals.
has aroused administration leaders to
high resentment.
More and more the Ford offer for
Muscle Shoals is becoming an intra-
party as well as bipartisan issue
with the Republicans, with waning
chances that there will be final action
on it this session.
In a session lasting far into the
night, debate on the Shoals question
grew very bitter Norris led the at
tack on the Shoals question, declaring
that Mr. Coolidge, Senators Harrison,
Mississippi. Hefin, Alabama. and
Henry Ford had become partners to
get congressional sanction for Fords
enterprise.
Norris described the conference
between Ford and the president, and
pointed out that Ford became fast
friend and supporter OF Mr.. Coolidge
thereafter He also referred to the
telegram sent to Fords secretary by
James Martin Miller. a contributor to
the Dearborn Independent, in which
Miller said Coolidge told him he was
trying to deliver Muscle Shoals TO
Ford.

President Ebert to attempt forma-
ton Of the next German cabinet, to-
day pledged his party's support to
the Dawes-Young plan with some
reservations"
Herr Hergt, a former Prussian
minister Of the interior, who recent
ly rose to leadership of the power
full nationalist group, declared his fol-
lowers would make only such con-
cessions as it was physically pos
sible to meet" Certain reservations,
he added, were "unrenounceabIe.v
The sum and substance of Herr
Hergt's statement was that the ma
tionaIists will not sabotage the ex-
perts' report.
Such declaration was a pre-re-
quisite to obtaining necessary cen
trist (cathoIic) and Peoples party
consent to cooperate in a cabinet
headed by Hergt.

form cabinet, the old coalition will

GERMAN ELECTION
CAUSE
OF BANKER BLUES
Note OF Pessimism In
Wall Street

NEW YORK, May despite the
protested satisfaction in banking cir
cles over the German elections, there
is an undercurrent of pessimism. The
early return of ]. p Morgan to the
United States is anxiously awaited.
Several results of the German cleo
tions disturb financiers who will be
called upon to underwrite the $780,
100000 American loan to Germany il
the Dawes plan goes thru. OF imme-
diate Importance is the question
whether the Dawes plan is going thru
lat least in its vital clauses, such as
that calling for the return to private
ownership of their railroads and their
mortgaging to foreign capital
Secondly, the financiers are disatis-
fed with the character of the coali-
tion forces. 1t is felt that right wing
Nationalists. assuming that they join
the coalition, will be perpetually in
controversy with Socialists and Peo-
pies partyites. The Socialists them
selves are a broken reed, reduced to
half their former strength. There is
no dominating party on which the in
ternational bankers can depend.
Alarmed at Communist Power.
Another factor contributing power
fully TO the moodiness of the leading
spirits Of the banking world is the
amazing Communist sentiment shown
by the 100000 votes which put 81
Communists into the Reichstag. 1t is
argued that Germany is a dubious
field for investment in view of the
strength of the revolutionary party.
Experience OF the bankers with Rus
STA shows that properties nationalized
in a revolution return to absentee
owners about as rapidly as nolasses
runs up hill.

Try to Unseat Four New
York Delegates
BY REBEccA CREcHT.

BOSTON, Mass, May 1.-THE
battle for the rights of expelled
members of the international
Ladies' Garment Workers. Union
swept onto the convention floor
here today with the report of the
credentials committee, that re-
ported it had been busy for two
weeks preparing its recommen-
dations.
The committee reported 95
local unions, joint boards and
district councils represented by
297 approved delegates.
Makes HypocriticaI Appeal.
1t was this committee that laid
down the attitude of the Sigman adj
ministration toward expelled mem
bers. 1t made serious charges against
local unions and individual members,
at the same time recounting the great
international achievements Of the Sig
man administration, winding UP with
the usual heated, appeal to the loyal
ty of the unions membership.
The report urged the taking of dis
ciplinary action against the so-called
union disrupters, giving warning that
"The International would not tolerate
their demoraIizing actions. In true
Gompers' style, it declared that the
Sigman dictatorship would fight en-
emies both within and without.
N. Y. Delegates Refused Seats.
The recommendation to seat the 297
delegates, plus three from the gener-
al executive board, was accepted
There was objection to four delegates
of local No. l, of New York City, on
the ground that their names had been
illegally placed upon the ballot, after
they had refused to sign a statement

League submitted to

of the General Executive Board. 1t
was claimed that they had thus dis
qualified themselves as candidates for

The recommendation was made that

that action be deferred until the ap-
peal of Local No. /. from the decision
Of the General Executive Board could |
be taken up.

ognize the amendment, claiming that

Judge Clubs Strikers With
Fines as Union Officials in
Convention Hit at Mi|itantS
FOeU Shows Same Bias
AS Sullivan

Judge Charles M. Foell has al
last come out and shown his
narrow-minded, puritanic, red
white-and-bIue striped prejudice
against workers and all those
unfortunate enough to have
been born under any but the
American sun.
The court has done all he
felt it his duty to do and would
be cowardIy if he didn't do" an
nounced FoelI as the final word
after sentencing the five men of
the thirteen striking garment
workers whose cases came be-
fore him yesterday afternoon.
Foell had just given four of
the men: Morris Sudin, Sam
Natesky, William Ellis and Fab
ian Tipschitz, fines of $25.
Morris Scher he fined $50, char
acterizing this young mans be-
havior as vicious disobed-
fence"
Girls Cases In Abeyance.
All of the thirteen strikers
We're found technically guilty
of violating the injunction, in
spite of the fact that many of
them had worked for shops not
participating in the injunction.
Judge Foell refused to excuse
the workers on that account and
issued stay of sentence for the
eight women involved.
All of these cases are held in obey
ance and can be re-opened at the
pleasure of the court. They are due
for another hearing on May 81, when,
if evidence is introduced showing that
they have violated the injunction be-
tween now and then, all of the strik-
ers may be given fines or Jail SEN
fences or both.
Foell is, stripe for stripe, of the
same mind of "Dennie' Sullivan, ex-
cept that he does not consider the Of
Tense of picketing such severe crime
as does Sullivan. At least his first
sentences have not been as severe
But his prejudice is the same that
the strikers are guilty of violating
the injunction, that the injunction is
law and must be obeyed, that he viii
use his power to enforce it, and that
the strikers are "the tools of some
culprit who is responsible for their
violations and is escaping punish
ment," as Foell put it yesterday.
The girls who came under Judge
Foell's judgment yesterday, are Mary
Gastina, Minnie Garshin, Mary Ma
shin, Ellen Weisen, Elizabeth Krusig,
Mary Tschaikowski, Katherine O'Con-
nor, and Ida Sulkoff. Over twenty
