warning against foreigners "who show
a disposition to interject destructive
ideas regarding home, religion and
government" and an appeal for the
preservation of fundamentalism in re-
ligion were the chief features of an
address by Mrs. Alfred J. Brosseau,
president general of the Daughters of
the American Revolution, before the
national convention of the organiza-
lion, which opened here today.
There are 10000 foreigners in the
United States and it should be the
first duty of all citizens to make them
understand that acceptance of Ameri-
can "ideals and institutions" is obliga-
tory, the leader Of this women's la
bor-baiting organization told her au-
dience.
On the eve of the convention, Mrs.
A. ]. Brosseau, president general of

their membership to all who are ''un-
questionably not exploiters of labor
and the camp at Monroe will be the
first Of a series Of cooperative I'M
dertakings. When the camp is estab-
lished, plans will be started for CO.
operative apartments, retail stores
and restaurants such as are now be-
ing operated SO successfully by other
workers in the city.

their week-ends and vacations there.
1T will be truly a cooperative ven

NAME WATKINS AS
Their CANDIDATE
Repudiate Shipstead as
Capitalist Agent

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, April 10
The evening papers in the Twin
Cities announce the filing of William
Watkins, member of Switchmen's
Union No. 500, as candidate for U. S.
senator in the farmer-labor primaries.
The filing of Watkins indicates that
the bona fide working and farmer
elements within the farmer-labor
party are determined to resist to the
last the surrendering of the machin-
cry of the workers organization to
Senator Shipstead, who has never by
word or deed done anything to build
the organization or to forward its
principles in any way, shape or form.
A Workers Representative.
Watkins enters the race for the
primary elections in the farmer-labor
campaign in Minnesota as the ac-
cepted candidate of over one-third of
the delegates to the state convention,
which convention was in the control
of the Shipstead elements backed by
the official families of the railroad
brotherhoods and the A. F. of L., who
have constantly fought the idea Of
independent political action through
out the entire building of the farmer
labor movement in the northwest and
are still opposed on principle to in
dependent political action and the
building of an independent political
party of the workers and farmers.
Expose Shipstead.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, April II
(By MaiD Has the Farmer-Labor
Party of Minnesota become an instru-
ment controlled for personal advance
ment by Senator Shipstead? This
question has been agitating the minds
of all sincere builders of the farmer
labor movement since the close of the
recent state convention. Shipstead
maintains silence on his intentions
and even the capitalist journals won
der how honorable these intentions
are.

Evidence Linking Do

WASHINGTON, April 16.-Not

Albert B. Fall virtually dropped but
Justice Jennings Bailey in the re-
sumption of the Harry F. Sinclair
conspiracy trial today refused to ada
nit evidence bearing on Falls rela-
tionship with E. l.. Doheny, leasee of
the Elk Hills Reserve.
Doheny gave Fall, former Harding
Coolidge secretary of the Interior,
100000 at the time the Elk Hills re-
serve lease was being negotiated. But
Justice Bailey today refused to per-
nit the special government prosecu-
tors in the Sinclair trial to put E. l..
Doheny, Jr., son of the oil man, on
the stand to tell about the 100000.
The son delivered the 100000 from
his father to Fall
Fall was originally charged jointly
with conspiracy with Sinclair. But he
is vacationing in California. 1t is not
part of the governments program
to try him or even to put him on the
stand as a witness in the Sinclair
trial.
