NON-PARTISAN
METHOD GENERAL
IN CONGRESS

Washington. - Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon opposes the govern
ment purchase of 100000 ounces of
silver He says the treasury has no
use for the white metal and that it
will be gift of $5,000,000 to silver
producers.
The administration party members
of the senate committee on banking
and currency are against Mr.. Mellon,
while the minority party supports
him.
The situation is another indication
of the -partisanship in this con-
gress. Party lines have been wiped
out on major issues, such as the world
court, the income tax law, and Mus
Gle Shoals. The public, however, is
urged to "stick to their party" as our
government "is founded on this sys-

PETER ]. BRADY
President Federation Bank
Rests After Operation

By International Labor News Service.
New York City.-Peter j. Brady,
president of the Federation Bank of
New York, after being stricken sud-
denly with appendicitis and being
rushed at night from his home to
st. Vincent's Hospital to be operated
on, has recovered rapidly and is now
recuperating in Atlantic City. This
is the first rest Mr.. Brady has had
since the formation of the Federation
Bank, now the largest labor bank in
the East, with resources of over
$17000,000 gathered in less than three
years.
Before leaving and in fact from his
hospital cot he announced the forma-
tion of an advisory committee of over
200 stockholders in the Federation
Bank who will assist in its transfer
nation to the Federation Bank and
Trust Company within few weeks
The change to trust company status
was recommended to the union mem
bers, who are the controlling stock
holders, by the board of directors and
approved unanimously. Wider service
will be made possible by the new
charter which has already been ap-
proved by the state banking depart
ment.
The advisory committee consists of
200 leaders of labor, including Will

lean Federation of Labor; John Sui

Harry f. Sinclair and Edward l.. Do
heny, oil magnates, and former Sec
retary of the Interior Fall with re-
sorting to ''dilatory tactics" in an
attempt to evade trial on conspiracy
charges.
District of Columbia courts upheld
the indictment and the defendants are
making special appeal for rehear-
ing.
1T would be highly immoral to the
institutions of this country" said the
government counsel, "if wealthy and
influential citizens are permitted,
through the delays of the law, to post
pone indefinitely their trials.
1T is essential to the maintenance
of the high moral consciousness of the
people that the defendants be prompt

confusing to the proletariat mind, eh :?
The big boys are certainly getting
theirs. Taxes are being reduced for
them, and the income of the president
has been exempted, thereby saving
President Coolidge $4,000 year, and
returning 100000 to the Harding es-
tate. Federal judges pay no tax
Senators and Congressman will very
likely come next, but this burst of
generosity will be long time reach
ing down to you.
Senator Howell declares Washing
ton should develop it's Great Falls
project, which would furnish light
heat and energy for the eastern Sec
ton of the country. Washington, he
says, is shining example of how a
city should not be rum The disposi-
ton of Muscle Shoals undoubtedly
will affect the Great Falls project,
and big business is straining every
muscle to prevent the government
operating the Shoals, because once
the people learn of the benefits of
publicly owned water-power plants
there will be no more fat dividends.

Washington, D. C.

New York labor people want work
ers' compensation handled by the
state, and because of their power at
the polls they will very likely get
what they want But here in Wash
ington, where we have no vote, we
invariably are compelled to take
what is given us. Two bills are be-
fore congress providing for workers
compensation. The Underhill bill
would give the business to private
insurance companies, and the Fitzger-
aid bill provides for government ad-
ministration. Big insurance compa-
nies and the United States Chamber
of Commerce have strong lobbies here
fighting against the Fitzgerald bill,
and it is not unreasonable to expect
organized capital with its vast and
multifarious influences in the halls of
congress to win out over voteless or
ganized labor of the District of
Columbia

William Nelson, U. s. Commission CT at Koggiung, who arrived in Sew ard last week on the s. s. Alaska from Seattle, departs for his west ward home on the s. s. Starr which leaves for the westward May 10, on Monday.
 MT. Nelson has been Outside since last fall and during that time travel ed quite extensively. He went to San Francisco and thence to the Atlantic coast via the Panama Ca nal. From New York he sailed for Europe, where he spent several months. Weather conditions in Flu rope during the winter were bad, he said, with heavy rains, floods, and severe cold and snow. MT. Nelson says he enjoyed his visit immensely, but is glad to get back to Alaska again.

 CORDOvA TEAM;PLAN
 CAGE CAME, FRIDAY
BOATS CREW COME OUT ON SHORT END OF THEIR FIRST
 MATCH WITH LANDSMEN

It did everybody good last night 10 see how much the S.S. Cordova indoor baseball team, the Amocat, enjoyed the same fast night with the locals. Though they were defeated by the score of 31 to 20 the sea-far ing lads covered themselves in a coat of glory by the splendid sporman- ship displayed and in several clever ly executed plays.
 Unlike Dempsey, no color line was drawn so several colored lads were present, in the lineup or as specta- tors. One of these, husky about the size of Jack Johnson, setting on the sidelines, with a glistening grin over his countenance, almost receiv- ed a serious injury when a bat slip ped from the grasp of one of the batters, smoting him a terrific blow on the chest. AS far as could be ascertained last night no bones were broken. Had he been a smaller man it is quite possible the accident would have ended quite seriously.
 The sailor boys stepped around fast and furious but could not halt the steady advance of the locals who have had the benefit of winters practice whereas the ship team were playing their first game. The hope was expressed another ball game will be played before they leave port.
 It was stated last evening that to- morrow night (Friday) they hope to take on the local champs in a bas- ketbal game. They fear nothing, evidently, or in their innocense have not heard the locals are known as the champs of southwestern Alaska.
 The gallery was packed with spec tators at last nights game, as well as that portion of the hall where home plate is located. AS was stat ed in the beginning the scrappy game last night sent everyone home in good humor so interesting was it.

High praise is accorded a former
Augusta man for the splendid Music
al clubs that represent Bowdoin this
year. This man is Prof Edward H.
Wass, professor of music at the
of all Bowdoin College musical ac-
Invites. The fact that the Musical
clubs have been trained under Prof
Wass' direction lends an added in
terest to the coming concert which
they are to give at City hall, Au-
gusta, Friday evening, April 16, I'M
der the auspices of the Kennebec
County Bowdoin Alumni association.
While Prof. Wass was born in the
Bay State, his musical activities of
the past in and about Augusta have
won him an enduring place in the
hearts Of Augusta music lovers. For
master of st. Marks Episcopal
church of this city, conductor Of the
Choral Art Society, the Festival
chorus, and the Cecilia Club of Au-
gusta. He is also we'll known in
Gardiner where he acted as visiting
choir master of Christ church, and
! the First Congregational church of
that city.
Prof. Wass has had a most excel
lent training for his chosen career.
He studied the piano with Gerald
Tallandier. the voice with S. Soaring
and Warren Locke; and studied
music at Harvard university. In
1912 he was called to Bowdoin COL
lege as Instructor in Music, and col
lege organist. His courses have be-
come exceedingly popular at Bruns-
wick, and have resulted in the Pro-
fessorship which he now holds.
1t is to Prof. Wass that Bowdoin
