CHICAGO, Dec. IA, - Visiting
baseball owners with likely per-
formers around second base were
quickly drawn into negotiations by
Ray Schalk, new manager of the
Chicago White Sox here today. A
successor to Eddie Collins is bad
ly needed, and Schalk asked for
terms on Marty McManus of the ST
Louis Browns, Frank O'Rourke of
Detroit, and Aaron Ward of the
New York Yankees. The Ward
proposition has been under con-
sideration for some time, with the
Yankees understood to be hold

pitchers.

Columbus american association
cluh ~ the Cincinnati Reds, for a
player farm" is also undergoing
fna negotiations, between Thomas
+. Wilson, Chicago packer who
owns the club, Garry Herman,
president of the Reds, and Joe Carr,
president of the Columbus club.
With the Lands vote disposed of,
the American league officials had
only a revision Of their constitu-
ton left to debate. President
JOhnsons term was extended last
year, SO the directors, chosen in
rotation, are the only officers to
elect.

Roger Peckinpaugh of the Wash
ington club, the fourth big league
infielder he is willing to buy for
Collins place.

with Collins"

ed to manage the Columbus club
of the America nasociation, but
it remained unconfirmed

cided whether to sell, or trade

Committee Posts

WASHINGTON, Dec IA (AP)-
The we'll laid plans Of Republican
leaders to bring Senator Frazier,
the North Dakota insurgent, back
into the party fold have gone
slightly awry because ne was not
given his former rank on all com
mittees.
Frazier's disappointment over.
his committee assignments has
disturbed those who were instru7
mental in getting the Republican
conference to vote unanimously to-,
day to welcome him back into the,
councils from which he was eject.
ed two years ago because he sup,
ported Robert M. LaFolette for
president.
Snator Frazier declared he had
bene led to believe that he had
been SO placed on only one, In.
dian affairs, and left low down on
the list of others. He made the
discovery late today but declined
to say what he would do about it.
Il guess it is all right if they
want to do that way he added.
1T is all their doing anyway. I
haven't asked them for anything"
Mr.. Frazier expressed pleasure
over the prospects of becoming
chairman of the Indian affairs
committee after March 4 when
Chairman Harreld retires.
He said that he had never at
tended but one Republican confer
ence and did not believe he would
participate in any more, although
by the. action of the conference to-
day he will be invited to future
party meetings.
1t developed today also that SEN
ator Shipstead, farmer-labor, Min
nesota, had ben approached to
learn if he desired to attend Re-
publican conferences. He is re-
ported to have replied that he
would let the Republicans know

BRITISH TRADERS
HOPEFUL AGAINST
OBSCURE OUTLOOK
5000, 200 Unemployed
IN Great Britain

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The Federation
Of British Industries in its official
trade forecast for the third quarter of
1926 states that the present position of
International trade is Extremely
obscure" due to the coal stoppage,
the crisis in French money and the
general fall in world prices of gold,
which has been progressing since late
5st year. This fall of gold prices has
reacted on the French crisis and been
Influenced by it and the coal strike.
The federation hopes that If France
gets thru her crisis and the coal strike
ends, the autumn will see trade
recovery.
However, at present the situation is
complicated by the unemployed ques-
ton, there being 100000 more unem-
ployed registered than a year ago,
while in addition there are 100000
miners idle in the stoppage. The total
figure Of unemployed is reckoned as
being between 2.75O,OOO and 5000, 900.

JENSEN FAvORS
STAND or LABOR
IN MEXICAN WAR
Carpenters Head Backs
Gales Government

$50 far as am concerned, I stand
with the Mexican Labor movement in
the present fight in Mexico" said
Harry Jensen, president Of the Chica-
go District Council of Carpenters when
asked for an expression of opinion on
the war between the church and state
in Mexico in which the latter Is being
supported by the Mexican Federation
of Labor.
The question was put with particu-
lar reference to letter sent to Presl-
dent Green of the American Fedora
ton of Labor by Samuel p LuzZo, a
vice-president of the Chicago Building
Trades Council In which he urged a
protest be lodged with the Mexican
government in "the name Of American
labor" on behalf Of what he termed
the prosecuted church"
DIsagrees With Luzzo.
Jensen said further that he was
not in sympathy with Luzzo's letter
and that he was of the opinion Luzzo's
connection with the Catholic church
was responsible for it. Nor was he,
he said, in sympathy with Michael J.
Kelly, head of the Chicago
Meat Cutters Union who call
ed meeting of his union to which
other labor officials were invited. Jen-
sen thought that Kelly's membership
in the Catholic church likewise influ-
enced his action.
Fitz is Silent.
President Fitzpatrick Of the Chica.
go Federation of Labor refused to
make a statement to The DAILY
WORKER regarding the question, but
Ed. Nockels, secretary of the Fedora
ton said that, personally, he was in
clined to agree with the stand of the
Mexican government.
The secretary of the Chicago Build
ing Trades Council was asked to state
his private position with regard to
the Mexican situation and altho he
declined, he said that Luzzo's action
was taken wholly upon his personal
initiative and had no connection with
any action the council had taken or
anticipated taking.
Printers Head Mum.
Robert Hedger, president OF TWO.
graphical Union 16, declared he did
not wish to express himself on the
Mexican question. Peter DAILY, of the
Machinists' district council said he
would make a statement in day or
two. Officers of the Painters district
council the metal polishers' union, the
furriers' union and the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers union could not be
reached yesterday by phone.

thing that could be handed down from
father5to som.
Socialists A Fadeout.
The socialists seem to be almost
completely euchered out of the politi-
cal picture in Wisconsin. They com
mitted haZi kiri in the last presidential
election when they identified them
selves with the LaFollette organiza-
ton even to the extent of losing their
identity. Now they must turn around
and be introduced all over again.
The cenEer of gravity in the next
presidential election promises to be
the western agricultural states. Should
the northern and southern democrats
be able to, reconcile their differences
they may have a chance of winning
the presidency. Some think that local
option on the liquor question may
solve the problem. This would leave
the southern dry statesfwith their pro-
hibition and their moonshine while the
.northernerG could vote themselves into
liquid heaven at will.
Move For Labor Party.
That republicans and democrats will
not have everything their own way
is certain. A strong agitation for the
launching of a labor party is being
conducteds and in several western
states the poor farmers have already
taken steps to give this agitation or
ganizational form. The working farm
ers have no confidence in millionaire
swivel chair agriculturalists like Low
den or fascist sympathizers like
Charles Dawes. They have gotten
nothing but insults from both demo-
Gratis and republicans and are begin
ming to learn that they must have
their own party to look after their in
terests.
The industrial workers who were
breaking away from the old political
parties during the height of the La
Toilette movement are promising ma
terial for a labor party tho the reac-
tionary labor leaders are doing their
best to collar them into the old cor
rupt parties of the employing classes.
