"BiIP Lee Haunted BY Left Wing

Lee leading it, was enough Of q bunco
party for him.
And the New York Central believed
enough in Lee to do something to
tickle the convention, 50 it gave sew
eral trains to Lee last Sunday so that
the convention could have a squirt at
Niagara Falls.
Last night Lee received quite a
measure of criticism at the Cleveland
Federation of Labor meeting for re-
fusing to allow VIM. Dawson, the floor
at the convention to talk against pris-
on made goods. Kitty Donnelly of the
Mattresses Union. was also kept off
the floor. She wanted to ask the
delegates not to patronize unfair
restaurants.
Foster Speaks In Cleveland.
"Bilp' Lee has graduated far be-
yond this kind of trade unionism. Ad-
vising delegates which are Cleveland's
non-union restaurants is small pota-
toes to him. Conserving with presi-
dents and managers Of big railway
systems, this is big stun so far as
Lee is concerned.
VIM. e. Foster, secretary Of the
Trade Union Educational League, will
expose this union wrecking scheme Of
class collaboration at a meeting to be
held in the Labor Temple, 1856 Eu-
cid avenue, Sunday evening, May a.
All workers are invited, but railroad
workers especially so.

RENEGADE CZECH
EDITOR Receives
SEVERE DEFEAT
All Traitors Cannot Be

Frank Kozumplik, editor Of Spra.

Of a renegade IL not always strewn
with roses, when he was defeated for
the vacany to the city council seat

Kostner.
KoEumplik's defeat was not caused
BY his devotion to the working class,
tho the sheet he now edits lives by
the grace and generosity of the Hill
man-Levin machine In the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers. The fake
radicals behind Spravedlnost have be-
trayed the Czecho-Slovak workers for
the meat bones that Sam Levin of the
Aknalgamated may see At to throw
at them.
The Political Chameleon

Of Kozumplik as editor when the
Workers Party severed relations with
IL. Politically he is like the channe-
leon. Today he is a socialist, tomorrow

GRAFT Tho elections are aIlegedly non
partisan in this city, the republican
and democratic groups nominate their
tools and put their machines behind
them. Bersan. the republican, failed
to qualify and the contest was be-
tween Kozumpnk. sometimes social

san and prominent members Of the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES machine sup
ported Kozunplik as did the Chicago
Tribune, The Daily News and the
Municipal Voters League. But the de-
mocratic machine was too much for
Kozumplik and when the votes were
counted, he was far In the rear.

been emtarra ssed by reports of a
man or about 80 years visiting
self to be Rev. Blocks son and OBJ
tanning small loans. but It was not
until yesterday that he came face to
face with the alleged SWtndler.
BY chance, Duvall met Theodore
Block. brother of the minister. on the
street several days ago. said he WAS
the son of q Harrisonburg, Va. par
son and obtained q loan of 81. and the
prisoner is said to have admitted the
transaction yesterday when he con
fronted his benefactor.
1t happened that Duvail yesterday
afternoon visited the diocesan house OF

took charge of DuNall. The prisoner
is said to have admitted having WIS.,
tied numerous ministers in this city,
Bishop Freeman being one of them,
and to have obtained various sums OF
money. He admitted he had no per-
sonal acquaintance with the Rev.
Block
