CHICAGO, Feb. 13.-Union-smash-

left wing in the labor movement for
over a year now has predicted will
become nationwide, have at last in
vaded even Matthew WolPs organiza-

Hides News of Lockout.
Details of a lockout by the Wal
lace Miller Engraving Co., which was
instituted on Jan. 7, have at last come
to light even though Local 5, VOLTS
own local, has tried, it is stated, to
suppress the news. Acting under what
is believed to be a well formulated
plan by the employers in the indus
try and supported by the open-shop
interests of the country, the firm
overnight locked-out it's 25 union en-
ployes and announced that it would
run open-shop.
The firm has been selected in trial
attack on the union, it has been learn
ed. At the same time that scabs were
employed, the hours were increased
from Al to 48 per week.
VOL Avoids Action.
Characteristically, VOLTS union has
thus far refrained from taking any
action against the firm although it
announces that it will do something.
VOL hitherto has boasted of the sue
cess which his policy of harmony"
between employers and workers has
met. This act by the Wallace-Miller
Engraving Co., it is believed, will be
the means of discrediting this policy.
The firm is threatening an injunction
should Woll declare a strike. 1t is
believed that Woll will do nothing.

WALSENBURG, Colo, (By MaiD.
Arguments pro and con on the out
come of the present strike are both
interesting and educational. Many are
srifling, some preventative, but the
gist of one of the more constructive
1nes can be summed up in one para
graph:
More than seven thousand of the
original strikers are still on strike
after one hundred and ten days of
strike. The coal operators admitting
that without these men in the coal
mines of Colorado, no profitable pro-
duction can be carried on. To replace
these men would take years of train
ny of the available slave material,
In the meantime no fat, nor even pro-
fitable contracts may be made and the
mines must remain mostly idle-not
10 forget the financial losses, both of
production and mine destructive va
rieties. Yes, we realize our advan-
tageous position at the present time;
will we take full advantage of it?

A fellow worker was recently asked

To Those Who Are Weakening.
You men who are going back to
work, stop and think, have you for
gotten that you elected your State
Executive Committee to fight, for
you? Are you going to leave them
fight this battle without your back
ing2 When your committee undertook
their job they knew that you would
have to stand soil or they would be

confidence in you and went ahead to

Don't leave them now men, think of

HOOVER FINDS LIFE ON SHIP
MOST INTERESTING EXPERIENCE
President-Elect and Wife Enjoy Trip on
War Vessel, One of Many Voyages
Since Honeymoon.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
U. S. S. MARYLAND, November "a
Life for President-elect and Mrs.
Hoover aboard the Maryland is prov
ing to be one of the most interesting
experiences in their almost unceasing
travels on most of the seven seas since
their honeymoon voyage across the
Pacific to China more than quarter
of century ago.
This trip is not only opening new
vistas and seas to the two passengers
but is furnishing an ever changing
picture of how 1900 men assembled
from various parts of America per-
form the Navys task of keeping fit a
massive unit of the Nations first line of
defense.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover evince a
never-fi tagging interest in the work of
the officers and men in all parts of the
warship which. to a landsman, Is a

naval minds and architects from tested
theories and experiences of all battles
from the Merrimac and Monitor to that
of Jutland. The complicated machin-
cry and construction naturally has at
tracted Mr.. Hoover's engineering mind,
but above and beyond that is interest
in the men themselves and their places
in the vast scheme Of things in this
noatng stronghold OF armor and guns.
Decks Washed Daily.
The day for the sailor begins at $40
am. with the sounding of the "Reveille"
bugles. Then he has half hour to
wash up and stow away his hammock
and dunnage. After that the washing
of the decks begins to the discomfort
of some members of the Hoover party,
who had taken to sleeping on the deck
in these tropical waters.
fast Is served on tables which are slowed
overhead. After the repast the COM
panies muster on decks for setting-up
exercises This Is followed with rou-
time that varies daily with weather
conditions and the kind of drills that
are on order for the day.
Since the Maryland left San Pedro,
Calf, almost every conceivable drill
has been presented and these are fol-
lowed closely by the President-elect.
One morning gunnery drill was
ordered. Crews hurriedly began scram-
bling into turretS and manned the eight
gigantic 16-inch guns. On the upper
decks 5-inch anti-destroyer and cruiser
rifles began to be manipulated. Anti
aircraft guns, which the officers and
crew proudly assert can keep off all
enemy aircraft as shown by frequent
firing against flying targets, began to
pepper away at the sky.
Collision Drill Held.
The one-pounders mounted on four
turrets and some of the smaller rifles

Kellogg Exchanges Greetings
With Czechs in inaugural
ing New Service.

BY the Associated Press.
Verbal greetings were exchanged yes
terday between Secretary Kellogg, in
his ofice here, and Dr. Eduard Benes,
sitting in the ministry of foreign af-
fairs at Prague, Czechoslovakia, when
they inaugurated o-telephonic serv-
ice between the two countries. Ex-
pressions of good will by President
Coolidge and President Masaryk were
conveyed through the. two cabinet
officers.
Mr.. Kellogg expressed gratifcation at
talking with DR.. Benes, whom he had
known in London and had again met
last August in Paris, where they both
signed the anti-war treaty. Speaking
of the signing of the treaty, DR.. Benes
said:
Nations are drawn closer by it, BY
it our hopes are increased that con-
facts between the two nations will be
more and more numerous, their rela-
tions more intimate and also that mis-
understandings between them will occur
more rarely"
DR.. Benes welcomed the achievement
by which business men and many citi-
zens of his country who have relatives
and friends in the United States may
communicate directly with them.
Direct telephonic communication, +"
he said, brings our Nation still closer
to the North American nations, whom
we esteem so highly for their momen-
tous share in our struggle for liberty
and whose sons made such sacrifices
in the common fight and who play the
role of pioneers in the daily economic
and cultural life of the world"

LEADERS IN CONGRESS
MEET WITH COOLIDGE
TO DECIDE PROGRAM
Continued From First Page.)

tGOUJlIluEu Eh0t dSC'V
Consideration of the Kellogg multi
lateral treaty renouncing war, will not
interfere with the regular legislative
program of the Senate, 1t Is explained,
since the treaty is considered in execu--
tive session and can be taken up at
any opportune time without displac1ng
the unfinished legislative business OF
the Senate.
Senator Curtis, now Republican lead
er of the Senate, yesterday declined TO
say lust what his plans were for retir-
ing from the Senate In view of his elec-
tion to the vice presidency. He has
let it be known, however, that he will
make some announcement Of his plans
at the close of the year. There is
nothing to prevent his remaining
member of the Senate until 1t becomes
time for him to be inaugurated as Vice
President. However. there has been an
impression he would retire from the
Senate, either about January or after
the electoral vote has been canvasSed
by a joint session of Congress the sec
ond Wednesday in February. and he
shall have been declared formally elect
ed Vice President. The late President
Harding remained a member OF the
Senate after his election as President
until similar time.
In spite of the fact that Senator
Curtis has made no announcement yet
as to when he plans to leave the
Senate and give UP his leadership in
that body, brisk race is looming for
the leadership after he shall have re-
tired. Senator Watson of Indiana
assistant leader; Senator Jones of
Washington, Republican whip; Sem
ator Moses of New Hampshire, presi-
dent pro ternpore. and several others
are reported to be canvass!ng the situa-
ton with a view to becoming candi-
dates for Republican leader. Others
who have been mentioned as possible
successors to Senator Curtis in this
office are Senator McNary and Senator
Reed of Pennsylvania.
Warren Not Candidate.
Under the old rule of procedure in
the Senate, Republican leaders have
been the Senator'S who have led the
longest service. Senator Warren of
Wyoming has a record for long serv-
ice. He stepped aside after the death
of the late Senator Lodge of Massachu-
setts, leader until his death, SO as to

with blank cartridges, the explosions of
which caused most members of the
goodwill party to recoil. There was
no firing of the heavier calibered guns.
On another day, Mr.. Hoover wit
messed a collision drill This was ac-
coInpanied with much blowing of whis-
ties and double-time march by COL
lision crews to their allotted stations
and tasks which included getting out
huge collision mats. These are tri-
angular affairs of heavy canvasses
stuffed with coca fiber, designed to
cover theoretical holes and to keep
out the water until temporary repairs
can be made within the hull. This
is usually accompanied by the aban-
don ship drill when boat crews gather
at their posts with the necessary equip
ment for small boat voyage, including
water casks, food, lanterns, sextants
and even dishes
From day to day there were fire drills
Between times the men are engaged in
keeping the ship spick and span. daub-
ing paint here and there; washing tur-
rets and cleaning tarnished articles
High up. boat deck crews polish, paint
and scrub to keep the lifeboats in fine
condition. Swinging aloft on derricks,
guy ropes and on the masts like aero
bats, others are constantly at work
painting and making repairs.
Movies Close Day.
After the usual midday lunch come
more drills and instruction as to work
on the ship, with supper interrupting
the busy bees at o'clock. This is fol-
lowed by the rigging Of hammocks and
bedding and then come the movies on
the quarterback, weather permitting
At $50 taps rings out and quiet in
vades below the decks
Ceaseless activity, however, reigns in
the fire and motor compartments for
"a hours of the day as shifts carry on
the lit1e-sung but all-important work
OF keeping the machinery in running
condition, without which the great
fortress would wallow helplessly.
All is not work. however, for as one
roarnS about in the daytime one can
find groups, Off duty, gathered around
dozen or more music boxes dispensing
jazz. Others may be found playing
cards or other games behind the guns
or below deck
The sunny days find leisurely groups
stretched out lazily on decks and others
reading, or writing to their loved ones
far away. Again sudden turn around
corner leading to the sunkissed deck
may bring one smack into punches of
rockies receiving instruction from young
officers.
A little formality which aroused Mr..
Hoover's interest is the appearance be-
fore lunch daily of band of fife and
drum players piping Roast Beef of Old
England" which is a brief tune coming
down from the ancient days of the
English Navy.

buildings by bus at public expense,
there is another student group of spe-
ciaI schools, who, because they are
mentally or physically deficient are en-
dangered when they use regular COM
mercial means of reaching their schools,
are believed by many school officials to
need similar bus carriage. During the
present year the board will consider, at
the suggestion of DR.. Ballou. whether
the establishment of bus transportation
for these abnormal children of the
atypical schools and classes would be
desirable. He has suggested that ne
himself be directed to make study Of
the situation for the board. and action
on this recommendation will be made
at an early meeting Of the board.
Similarly. the board is desirous of
knowing how many crippled children
are regularly enrolled in the schools,
and it has ordered DR.. Ballou to make
a thorough investigation with view to
determining whether bus transportation
for these children would not be advan-
tageous. The superintendent already
has sent out missionaries to the prin-
cipals of the elementary schools
throughout the city by which he hopes
to obtain the numerical status OF these
children and a crCss-section of the opin-
ions held in the actual field.
DR.. Ballou believes also that bus
TRANSPORTATION for normal elementary
school children might we'll be provided
in newer communities which, while re-
moved from established schools, have an
insufficient number of children to war
rant the building of new 16-room build
ings. These children could be trans
ported to the schools in other COM
munities until the school population In
their own neighborhoods is large enough
to demand a building. This problem
too. is among those which the board will
study during the coming months.
