of the coal companies of the speed up

Strike May Develop.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Jan. &c. -
By adopting methods quite usual to
the buraaucrats in control of the
unions, the leaders of the Fall River
Textile Workers Council have sue
ceeded temporarily in preventing the
calling Of strike affecting 10000
workers in the plants of the Fall
River Cotton Manufacturers Associa-
ton. The employers had recently de-
clared wage cut of ten per cent
to take effect Monday.
That a strike is likely to develop
despite this adverse decision of the
union which embraces only compare
lively few highly skilled workers, is
the belief of competent observers
here, in view of the declarations of
many workers that it is no worse to
starve on the streets, than to starve
on the job.
By declaring that the usual major
| ity decision necessary in such ques-
tons, as not enough, council officials
announced that a two-thirds vote
would be demanded before a strike
would be called. At the final count
they declared the results to be II
votes short of the necessary total.
Miscount Charged.
Over the protests of almost the
entire membership present at the
meeting, who repeatedly demanded a
recount, the secretary of the council,
William HARDWOOD, insisted that the
count as he saw it remain final. The
charge of conscious miscount were
heard all over the hall.
While the union itself is composed
only Of the most highly skilled work
arg, their walkout would have I'M
douhtedly precipitated general strike
of about 10000 workers affected by
the cut in wages.
Strike Sentiment Strong.
Proof that tho sentiment among the
thousands of textile workers is defin-
ftelv for a walkout, is offered by the
strikes Of workers in the Arl1wright
and Stevens Mills which have lasted
nearly a week The 900 workers in
the Arkwright Mill struck against the
wage cut at the beginning Of the
week, altho not affiliated with the
Textile Council. Over 500 union weav-
ers in the Stevens plant went out in
protest against the bosses demand
that each man take care of three
looms instead of two. The weavers
had decided to take the wage vote at
the union meeting.

FEAR OF CRAFT
EXPOSURES STIRS
POLITICAL RINGS
Smith and Republicans
Match Wits

ALBANY, Jan. 26.-The originally
announced intention to investigate
irregularities in the State Labor De-
partment, has been lost sight of in
the republican-demoera squabbl5
which has been going on here during
the past few days. Yesterday the
senate side-tracked resolutions passed
the day before by the assembly pledg-
ing cooperation in the investigation
of the labor department.
Republican Division.
Instead it adopted a resolution ex-
tending the life and powers of the
Industrial Survey Commission, body
created by the republican legislature
two years ago. The commission has
itself sought to compel an investi-
cation of the state labor department
in which democratic politicians and
labor officials have been stationed.
The act to increase the commissions
powers is interpreted as a republican
move to embarrass Al Smith.
Ths counter move of A. Smith in
appointing Professor Lindsay Rogers
70 conduct an independent inyestiga-
ton has created CONSERVATION in the
ranks of the republicans because, it
is reliably reported, the Industrial
Survey Commission, in close coopera-
bon with the employing interests of
the state, is concerned in some deals
which it too would not care to have
disclosed. Henry D. Sayre, its exec
utive secretary, for instance, is at the
same time the executive secretary of
the Wolff Industrial service, a "medi-
cal" service organization which CO.
operates with employers in accident
casses and whose relation to the COM
pensation cases, it is limited, might
not bear too close scrutiny.
Fear Exposures.
On the surface the fight here APP
pears to take the form of a conflict
between Senator Knight, republican
head of the Senate and Speaker Nc
Ginnis, leader of the assembly. 1t is
believed, however, that underneath
this seemingly personal feud is the
split over the policy Of whether to
worl, along with Al Smith as against
the Industrial Commission or against
AL Smith for the investigation of the
labor department with the consequent
risk that republican graft will like
wise be brought to light.
