 The Rundschau and other cOnser- vattye organs Cite America's first sol dier president as evidence that an active commanding general is also qualified to become the head of a modern republic, They say that Washington, the first popularly elect ed republican president in a modern sense, accomplished by his personal ity pacifcation of partisan strife. set tlement of internal dissessions, and a coordination O. the young repubic's nnances and social conditions.
 None of these newspapers refers to the fact that Washington was 57 years old when first elected presi. dent, after military service, whereas 1 Von Hindenburg is now v years ol age.
 Von Hindenburg, after telling recent visitor 10 his Hanover home that his is solely a one-track soldier mind, added that the leisure he hal enjoyed for the last six years na! enabled him to keep abreast of post war developments in economics ant international politics.

 Von Hindcnburg still avoids inter views but has consented to receive delegation Of German and foreigl correspondents next Sunday, whel he is expected 10 deliver his frs lormal oral campaign statement.
 Heretofore, Von Hindenburg ha. lived quiet life at his villa in Seel Ilorststrasse, Hanover, which tha city has placed at his disposal fo life. His companions are his secre tary, housokeeper, valet and an ad jutant who usually wears uniform although he holds no rank in tn ReichsWehr,

ARMY HEADS LAY
PLANS FOR NEXT
WORLD CARNAGE
More Appropriations to
Be Demanded

x. WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-The In
vestigation by President Coolidge's
special board headed by Dwight Nor
row Of Morgan C Co., into the air
craft controversy, gave the army
chiefs a chance to lay their plans for
the next war before the country.
Acting Secretary Of War Davis, Chief
Of STAFF Hines and Assistant Chief of
Star Drum, supported by General
Patrick, chief of the army air service,
took advantage Of the opportunity.
They presented figures and charts
showing how tremendous an air force,
along with other branches Of the mill
tary establishment, have been mapped
out for the war that may come.
One thing made clear was that the
army wants the American people to
put up a good many millions to buy
coast defense guns that can be aimed
at aircraft. Gen. Drum suggested $50
big guns and $40 machine guns for
the anti-aircraft defense Of the New
York region. The present number OF
army air service officers on active
duty is 921, with 1854 enlisted men.
This would be enlarged to 1000 Of
ncers and $4,000 enlisted men as a
first step.

EMPLOYEES OF
UNCLE SAMUEL
WANT. A RAISE
But They Beg Congress
Instead of Striking

WESTINGHOUSE. P.)-Returned
from their eigth convention, held in
Boston, President Steward and Sec
rotary Mentally Of the National Fed
Grafton Of Federal Employees announce
membership drive in support of a
program of wage increases and other
betterments which must be secured
from Congress. They argue that the
postofice workers secured a salary
increase Of $500 a year because they
are organized nearly 100 percent.
Federal employees outside the postal
and other industrial branches of the
public service are still far from that
degree of group consciousness.
A minimum salary of $1,000 for all
full time adult employees was the
outstanding economic demand made
by this convention. Other points in
the program include Saturday half
holiday the year around, establish
ment of sick leave as right, increas-
ed travelling allowance, liberalization
of the present old.age retirement law,
fair administration of the classified
ton law for the District of Columbia,
Reconsideration Of the field services, a
six-day week for all services, overtime
pay for work in excess of regular
hours, preferential treatment of en-
ployes dropped from the rolls, aboli-
ton Of the personnel classification
board, and payment by the govern
ment of premiums on bonds for
bonded employees
Steward and Miss Mentally point out
the necessity for an immediate and
thorough membership drive, to make
the influence of the organization felt
in every congressional district in the
country.

HEAD OF BRITISH
LABOR SEES END
OF WAGE SYSTEM
What VIII "BiII" Green
Say About It?

SCARBOROUGH, EnEl., (F.P)-'It
seems to me, that we are ent1ring
upon a new phase OF development II
the upward struggle of our class" said
A. B. Swales, president of the British
Trade Union Congress, in opening the
annual meeting. "All around are signs
of an awakening consciousness in the
peoples OF all countries that the
present system Of society is condemn
ed =. The backward centres Of
industrial and political slavery are
rising in revolt against the capitalist
order Of society; and so we see
India, China, and other Eastern coun-
tries in the throes of upheaval and
demanding the right of selfdetermina-
ton =. Those who believe that a
new order OF society is inevitable,
cannot do other than rejoice that at
last there are clear indications of a
world movement rising in revolt and
determined to shake off the shackles
of wage slavery. Just as our people
have passed out Of slavedom into
serfdom, and out of serfdom into
wagedom, so will they finally pass
out of wagedom into freedom"
These sentences sum up the main
conclusions of speech filed with
references to the failure Of capitalism
and to the necessity for the working
class to take hold Of the economic
and technical institutions and create
new social order. 1.-THE workers
must sweep away such a system and
replace it by a structure based upon
cooperation, and in which every
man and woman will be assured the
full fruits Of their labor"
President Swales gave a careful re.
view of the present economic situation
in the British Isles, and pointed out
how the low standards in India and
China were cutting under British
living and working conditions.
Membership in the Trade Union
Congress is about thirty thousand
greater than it was in 1924. The
number of delegates at the 1926
congress is TIA, representing an
affiliated membership of 4,342, 9S2.
The number Of unions, on the other
hand, shows steady decrease, as
the process of consolidation is still in
full swing. There are, IL per cent
fewer separate unions in the United
Kingdom than there were in 1920.
