BROTHERHOOD EDITOR
DENIES RED CHARGE
Engineering Journal Chief De-
nounces Lewis for Communist
Accusation.
By the Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, October 13-
Albert F. COyle, editor of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers Jour-
nal, charged by John l.. Lewis, presi-
dent Of the United Mine Workers,
with being "a lieutenant of William
z. Foster" and working with the Com
munist party, declared last night that
the statements were "f1agrant false
hoods"
Lewis allegation that 1 am a lieu
tenant of Foster or in any way con-
nected with the Communist party is
a fragrant falSehood, all the more con-
temptible because he made it knowing
that l was not present to refute it.
Mr.. Lewis reference to the control
of the Big Sandy River colieries or
any other mines is equally untrue, and
l can say emphatically that the En-
gineerS' Brotherhood has no connec-
tion with the collieries and does not
have one penny in them.
Neither the Brotherhood nor it's
bank has any investment in the col
lery or any Interest in its manage
ment.
His statement that the delegation
or labor union executives who contem-
plate a visit to Europe, including
Russia, next Summer has any connec-
ton with the Soviet government or
Communist party is wholly and un-
qualif1edly false.
while have no right or desire to
comment in any way on the internal
politics of the American Federation of
Labor, since the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers is not connected
with that organization, 1t is perfectly
obvious that Mr.. Lewis violent and
untruthful attack was motivated by
partisan reasons to bolster up his own
political fortunes in his own organiza-
tion."

Al. OF |. PLEDGED
TO WAR ON SOVIET
mo Quarter" Decreed for
Those Who Seek to Divide
Labor Ranks.
BY the Associated Press.


DETROIT, October 13.-The Amer
lean Federation of Labor is pledged
to no-quarter war with the friends Of
Soviet Russia who seek to divide the
ranks Of labor.
Nearing the end Of their program
today, delegates to the forty-sixth an
nual convention of the federation had
in the record the unanimously ap-
proved report of the committee on
resolutions characterizing the sym
pa.hizers Of the Soviet government
the one foe of organized labor in
America with whom there could be
no compromise.
The committee report was approved
yesterday in a three-nour session
which veterans in the convention de-
the federation.
Opposes Plant Organizations.
Consideration of suggested plans
for advancing the interests Of fedora
ton in the face of resistance from
labor organizations formed within va
rious employment plants was first on
the convention program Of the fed
Grafton today as the delegates assem-
bled to resume labor on the reports
of the committee on resolutions.
Through the report of it's executive
council the federation is already on
record as unalterably opposed to the
local plant unions. The council re-
port suggested opposition to the full
extent Of it's powers by the federation
to the development of the company
organizations.
Two resolutions on the subject
were considered by the resolutions
committee.
VitriOlic Debate Feature.
In a fiery afternoon session yes
terday which ran overtime and
brought out some of the most vitriolic
debate ever heard on the convention
floor of the federation the delegates
rededicated their organization to un-
swerving loyalty to American prtn-
ciples of government and denounced
the autocratic relationships Of Russia
and Italy.
Following charges by John L.
Lewis, president Of the United Mine
Workers of America, that Russian
sympathizers in the ranks Of Amer
lean labor sought the destruction Of
the federation, President Green called
upon the convention to accept the
challenge of the enemies Of labor"
The convention unanimously ap-
proved, in accepting the report Of the
vigorous denunciation Of the Russian
government which ever has come
from the federation.

therefore, will continue to get dry
votes, he also will receive support
from Liberals who de not like the
idea of having Cooper come into office
to enact more stringent laws and
regulations.
Two years ago Gov. Donahey had
the support of the Ku Klux Klan.
This organization is less strong in the
State today than it was in 1924, it is
claimed. But it is estimated that 1t
can still control from 10000 to $4,000
votes. It's support probably will go to
Donahey in the end, Notwithstanding
the fact that the governor vetoed the
so-called "Bible BILL" which had Klan
backing, compelling the reading of the
Bible in the schools. There is very
considerable Gernan-American popu-
lation in the State. Generally speak
ing, it is wet This fact is not likely
to help Cooper against Donahey. The
German-Ame1icanS were strongly
against Pomerene when he ran for the
Senate in 1922 and helped in his de-
feat. In spite Of their wetness they
may be q. factor against Pomerene
again because Of his attacks on the
Germans during the war and after
ward.
The Republicans insist that they
Cooper, but this is denied by impair
tial observers who have looked close
ly into the situation Some Of the
leaders have their knives out for
Cooper, they say.
His Popularity Discounted.
Two years ago Donahey was elected
governor over Harry L. Davis, the
Republican nominee, by 176,S42 votes.
The Republicans say now that it was
because Davis was a weak candidate
was against him. Four years ago
Donahey beat Carmi Thompson by
1858 votes. The Republicans again
insist that it was due to the unpopu-
larity of Davis, who was governor at
the time of the election. 1t is a fact,
however, that in this Republican
State Democrats have been governor
for 16 out Of the last 20 years, only
Senator Willis and Davis having won
the governorship for one term each
during that period.
While candidates struggle for office
in the present campaign, a campaign
is being waged to do away with the
State primary laws and to return to
the convention method of nominating
for office. a referendum on the ques-
ton will 10 carried on the ballot. The
committee. Yeading the fight for the
repeal of the primary laws is headed
by former Representative c. l..
knight, a Republican, and among its
members are Robert A. Taft, son Of
the Chief Justice, and former
Gov. Davis, all Republicans. A COM
mittee has been organized against the
repeal Of the primary law and a
series Of debates on the subject is
planned, which may distract some
what from the interest in the cleo
tions themselves.
Willis and Donahey look today to
be the winners in the principal elec-
ton contests here. Donahey, like
Willis, is leading in the Columbus
Dispatch straw vote, though not so
far ahead as the Republican Senator.

MUSIC TO HERALD
ORATORS EFFORT
National Anthems of Contest
ants Will Form Sole
Introduction.

A corps of go cadets, picked from
the Washington high schools, will act
Rs ushers and special aides in seat
ing the crowd at the Washington
Auditorium at the International Ora
tOrical finals on Friday evening. These
cadets will work under the direction
of Capt c. j. Schwartz of Eastern
High School, The attention of ticket
holders is called. to the fact that no
reservations will be held after 8
o'clock At that hour all tickets lose
their validity and seats will be given
to any persons who are ready to claim
them. The meeting will be the short
est one in the history of the oratorical
competitions in Washington. There
will be only five contestants instead
of the seven which have been heard
In the national finals. In addition,
there will be no loss of time in the
Introduction of the speakers.
The meeting will be briefly opened
by the chairman, John Hays Ham,
mond, who will announce the names
and subjects Of the five national
epokesmen. Thereafter President
Coolidge will deliver an address Of
welcome. Immediately after the Chief
Executives address a fanfare of
trumpets will announce that the COM
petition is under way. From that
time forward no voice other than that
of a contestant will be heard in the
program until the winners name Is
ennounced by Frank B. Noyes, who
will hand the winner the loving cup.
Each speaker will be introduced by
the playing of his national anthem, at
the end of which he will, without any
further introduction, advance to the
front Of the stage and begin his
speech.
This introduction of the orators by
music rather than by the usual eulo-
CYSTIC phrases will be a totally novel
plan in public speaking contest. It
so happens that the anthems of the
five participating nations are extreme
~ stirring, and their rendition by the
United States Army Band, which will
furnish the music for the occasion,
will be one of the memorable features
Of the program.
In case Rny persons who have re-
ceived tickets find that they will not
be able to use them, they are request
ed to return them to contest head
quarters, 1923 Star Building, as there
Is heavy overdemand for seats.

That it was never thought, limited

these Indians had, or presented any

Mr.. WheelOck also claimed that
Governor Ramsey, due to lapse Of
time, was mistaken as to some lat
ter. statements made by the COVER
nor relative to the claims Of Little
Shells Band at the time the treaty
was effected in 1863. In my mind
there is no doubt but what these
Indians having on various occasions
hunted on the lands in question
after reflection and knowledge Of
the eastern and northern bOundar-
les of other tribes OF Indians, name
~ the Cut Head (Parboxi) and
Santee Sioux Indians, and the Fort
Berthold Indians and the Poplar
Greek Sioux, finding there were no
Indian claimants to this vast terri
tory in question thought it would
De u good thing to lay claim to all
these lands simply because at in-
frequent intervals they had hunted
over same and due to great distan-
ces from their original habitat in
Minnesota had established semi
permanent camps at times in the
turtle Mountains to obtain shelter
and fuel, perhaps Mt the time doubt
full if their claims would be recog-
nized. Indians other than these
Lhlppewas might have with equal
propriety laid claims to these lands,
but they had already been provided
for.
In view of the foregoing in my
opinion the title was not "imper-
feet" but absolutely void. How
ever, at the present time all this is
Il closed chapter. The old Indians
of former years as well as their
white compatriots have passed over
to the great beyond.
