Paris opinion is that the refusal to
recognize a decision in relation to dis
puted borders is not a violation Of
the covenant and therefore France
will not be called upon, in case Of
war, to aid England. In London,
however. the opposite opinion pre-
walls and the papers supporting Bald

Force sisman Retreat.


So raw was the provocation Of
Sigman and so obvious the violation
of the fundamental basis of the unity
agreement that even capitalist papers
here, like the Evening Ledger, place
the blame for the crisis upon Sigman.
At nine o'clock negotiations opened
between the administration and the
left wing and an agreement was
reached that the administration would
urge the convention to adopt the re-
ferendum provision upon the return
of the left wing delegates to the con-
vention. The convention will resume
its sessions at 8 a. m. The situation
is critical and much depends upon the
manner in which the Sigman machine
carries out the agreement.
After the left wing had walked out
the machine attempted to reorganize
the convention, read the left wing out
of the union and proceed with the
business of the convention but opposiS
ton to this policy came from a num-
Der of administration delegates who
were not close enough to the machine
to be blinded to all reason and who
still retained some loyalty to the
union.
These unexpected defections forced
Sigman to change his policy. After
stating that he would crush the New
York locals in two months after the
convention, even the promised sup
port of Green and the A. F. of L.
could not counterbalance the decreas-
ed morale of the machine followers.
The situation was a very dangerous
one, not only for the left wing in the
|. l.. G. w. but for the entire Amer
lean minority movement.
The split in the l. L. G.. w. was not
only imminent this afternoon, but it
had actually occurred. The maneuver
