BRENNAN GIVEN A
GOOD chance NOW
Believe Illinois Committeeman
Will Recover Health

Chicago. Aug. ! R,-George Bren-
nan was given u good chance for re-
covery today, but there was a gem
eral sentiment among democratic
leaders that the Napoleon of Hi
nois democracy" may never again be
able to resume the political leader
ship he has held since the death OF
Roger Sullivan.
There was no single personality
outstanding among the states demo-
cratic chieftains who appeared as
natural successor to Mr.. Brennan,
who is lighting for his life follow
ing operations necessitated by in
:ected teeth. There were dozen OF
more men. however. any one OF
whom might fall heir to the demo-
cratic dictatorship should Mr.. Bren-
mans health compel the abandon
ment of the mantle.
Rose to Power
Brennans rice to power from
breaker boy to banker was being re-
told today by his friends as they
kept in touch with reports from his
bedside which early today were that
he was getting better every hour. :
Ever since Brennan stepped into
the shoes made vacant by the death
of Roger Sullivan, he has warred
against the Volstead act, against the
return Of saloons and in favor of
beer of 3 per cent alcoholic con-
tent.
His fervor, say his friends, has
carried him through accidents that
would have meant death for lesser
men. When he was a breaker boy
leg was crushed and amputated;
few knew he strobe through politi-
cal warfare on an artificial leg. AS
he conducted his vain fight for a
seat in the senate, he fell from a
truck on which he spoke. While
3, physicians labored to save his life,
Mrs Brennan stumped the state for
him.
Septic Poisoning
! Then this week there came the
septic poisoning following the en-
traction of two teeth. And he laugh
ed at the worries of the friends who
went to the hospital and flooded a
reception room with kilograms.
| Brennan always has laughed. Fol
the last II years Illinois politics has
been veneered with his humor. He
entered politics in 1897 when he
cast his lot with the Sullivan Gahan
Hopkins group. 1t was his humoi

NO WEAKENING IN
STRIKERS RANKS
New Bedford Clash Goes on
Seemingly Indefinitely

New Bedford, Mass. Aug. / (UP)
Here in one OF Americas biggest
textile centers, the forces of capital
and labor are waging grim and
stubborn battle. with the industrial
life OF the city at stake.
TODAY. nearly Is weeks since IS
ono mill hands went on strike IN
protest against a 10 per cent wage
cut, New Bedford is beginning to
feel rather seriously the effects OF
the most desperate labor strife in its
history.
No WeakcninG
But while the city struggles under
the burdens thrust upon it by the
crippled industry, there is no sign OF
weakening in the ranks of either the
manufacturers or The striking oper-
atiyes Both sides appear as deter
mined as on that April day when 90
mills, with nearly 100000 spindles
and more than $4,000 looms, We're
, abruptly closed.
Already, the strike represents a
payroll loss of close to $4,000, N0p,
and this figure will be increased by
about 100000 during each succeed
ing week of the dispute.
At first, it was only war OF
words between the manufacturers
and the strikers, the strikers and the
police, and the conservative strikers
and so-called radical strikers.

NO Objections
Not Against Compromise on
Naval Disarmament

Washington, Aug. R)-Washing-
ton officials apparently see no objec-
ton to the compromise worked out
by Great Britain and France IN an
effort to end the naval disarmament
deadlock arising from the prelim-
mary disarmament conference of
Geneva.
Although the British communica-
ton describing the compromise has
veto reach Washington, it is un-
derstood here that it includes the as
signment of a total combat ship
tonnage TO each nation and will per-
NIT the resumption OF the confer
ence in the fall.
1t is believed too, that France and
Great Britain have found 4 way out
of their disagreement on limits to be
placed upon the construction IF sub
marines, cruisers. destroyers and
smaller vessels. The deadlock arose
when France rejected proposals TO
limit submarines and Great Britain
declined to approve any limitation
of craft used as a defense against
submersibles.
France Willing
To reconcile total tonnage limita-
ton with British views. which are
shared by the United States and
Japan, it is understood that France
is willing that the projected treaty
set forth a specific construction
program for each class Of fighting
vessels, the grand tonnage total not
to exceed the maximum prescribed
F, for each power. The treaty, it is
| further understood, would be effec-
tive for a specific length Of time.

There are bread lines, too. which

 FUR THIS SECTION
FIRST MILD CURE PLANT IN SEWARD DESTINED TO EN-
 PLACEMENT

"The results already achieved in Resurrection Bay this season will be a revelation to fishermen of the en l tire Northwest, in quantity and grade of mild-cure salmon they have put up,' sand John Torwick, of the Cor man Packing company who has just finished a successful season in An chorage and is now on his way to Seattle for the winter He and Mrs Torwick left on the Steamer Alaska yesterday.
 There seems now to be only one thing holding Seward back and that 1 Is a safe harbor for small boats, and gre glad to know that arrang. IacIits have already been made for !. breakwater that will protect small boats from the souh winds that sweep up the bay.
 'I'u tell you something. They had more silver salmon than they could handle at the local plant and they sent some up to us at Anchorage and they were splendid grade of fish. The mild-cure process in Seward has a great future"
 Torwick said that the salmon sea son had been a success with total catch on the upper Cook Inlet of about 60,000 cases at Anchorage. Four out fits shared in the harvest, including the German Co.,, the Magill Fisher ies company, the Emard Packing Co.,, and the Tomen company. In the case of the Magill company they had a fine season, making a mark that will be shot at during future seasons.
 "The German company is still op- erating at Anchorage" said Torwick, under charge of F. o. 'Scotty Perry. Weather conditions have been bad, but there is still good chance for a good run before the close of the sea son.
 "In Seward, MT. Champenes and his associates have achieved an en- viable record, and there is no telling what they will reach before they knock off salting down the salmon for this and many seasons"

NORWEGIAN SHIP PICKS UP SEAPLANE PoNTooN BE-
 LONGED EXPLORER

TROMSOE, Norway, Sept, 3, (P) The first definite clue as to the fate of Amundsen and the five men who accompanied him on the relief expedition to rescue the members of the Mobile Arctic party has been brought here. It is a float from the seaplane in which the adventurers started for Spitzbergen on June IS. The relic was found by the Norwe- gian fishing vessel Brood picked up near Fugloe Islands, Cocky group off this port but seldom approached because so dangerous to shipping.
 Officers of the Steamer Michael Sars and the French vessel Dulacne, identified the float as belonging to a French naval seaplane in which Amundsen rode with Gene Guiland as pilot. Comparison of the float with photographs of the plane tended to confirm the identification.
 Beside Amundsen and Guiland, plane carried Lief Dietrichsen and three French navy men comprising the regular crew.
 The Brood has been operating off Vannis Land put into Tromsoe early Saturday molhinig. Captain Haeig told the authorities he had picked up the pontoon Friday night.
