PRESBYTERIAN, METHODIST EPISCOPAL
CHURCHES TALK OF UNITING FORCES
Proposal Will Come Officially
Before General Conferences
of Both Denominations This
Summer - Would Involve
100000 Communicates in
$1,000 Churches

Chicago, April 25.-(AP1-Union
Of the Presbyterian and Methodist
Episcopal chruches, involving IT,
100000 communicates in $4,000
churches, was predicted today by
William F. McDermott Of the pro-
motional department of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church.
The proposal will come officially
before the supreme bodies of both
denominations next month. DR.. Raw
Allen of Hornell, New York, will
present a memorial for union with
the >Presbyterians to the quadrennial
general conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church in Kansas City,
McDermott said, and an unnamed
delegate to the general assembly of
the Presbyterian church at Tulsa,
Okla, will offer similar resolution.
No such sweeping union Of
churches in the United States has
been proposed or promoted officially
before, but there has been such a
tremendous growth in the spirit of
unity that McDermott believes the
move will be given serious attention.
Commissions on church unions prob
ably will be appointed by both
groups for study and later report,
he said.
Time Ripe for Movement
DR.. Orrin w. Auman, treasurer
Of the world service commission of
the Methodist Episcopal church, in
expressing approval of the plan
pointed. to the newly organized
United Church of Canada. II am
convinced" he said, "that the time
is ripe for such movement in the
United States. So great has been
the success Of the Presbyterian,
Methodist and Coneregationalist
churches in Canada that there should
be no fears here as to the feasibility
Of the proposal"
There are approximately 1000, 900
church members with an added TO-
OOO,O 900 including Sunday school pu-
pills and other adherents, who will
be affected If the union takes place.
Should the southern branches of both
denominations also subscribe to the
plan it would affect almost 24,00O,-
600 persons.
The proposal would cause also re-
adjustment Of hundreds of millions
in property values. The Methodists
have $4,000 churches, thousands Of
hundreds of colleges,
hospitals and institutions with .
total value of about $3.50, ,O0O, 900.
The Presbyterian denomination has
10000 churches and property valued
1t $500, ,OOO.O 900.

MASS PICKETING
GOES ON DESPITE
MANY ARRESTS
Bosses Try Intimidation
of County Officials

ST. GAINESVILLE, Ohio, June 10.
"A decision has been handed down
by the Belmont County Common
Pleas Court awarding $500 to Emroy
E. Brewer, scab miner employed in
the Florence mine of the Y & O Coal
Company in a damage suit against
the Belmont county commissioners.
The suit grows out of an alleged at
tack on Brewer by strikers last Aug
ust 2. The institution Of the proceed
ings and the favorable decision rem
dered to Brewer is looked upon by
Belmount County strikers as an eff
fort of the Y go Coal Company and
the courts to intimidate county au
thorities and to spur them to greater
strikebreaking efforts. Emroy alleges
that he was a target for eggs and
stones flung by wives of strikers as
he attempted to reach the mine.
Mass Picketing Goes On.
The action of the company, the real
power behind Emroy's suit, according
to the strikers here, will have no ef-
feet on the mass picket lines which
continue regularly here. eve have
established our right to picket" says
John Barto, veteran of the mass ar
rests at Lansing and st. Clairsville,
which attracted nationwide attention
late in April. eve will keep on pick
citing till we close down every mine
in the county. The only thing that
worries US is food. We can't expect
chicken dinners when we are on strike
but we've got to have enough to feed
the children once in while. The car
load Of food sent US early last week
by the National Miners Relief Com
mittee is the only thing we will have
to keep US going until they send US
more"

1000 HURT THIS
YEAR AS SHIP CO.
SPEEDS Up Men
Allow /, Instead of 2
Planks On Scaffolds
(By d Worker Correspondent

(By d Worker Correspondent
CHESTER, Pa. (By mail). - On
May 18th, at a banquet given by the
officials of the Sun Shipbuilding
Company some very important infor-
nation was disclosed. The real pur-
pose Of this affair is not known, but
the foremen, the high officials and
the representatives Of the company
union" were present.
The Vice President, Mr.. Haig, spoke
on the prospects for greater activity
in the yard in the way Of work and
didn't hold out anything encouraging
for the workers.
One foreman in my hearing said
that the speech fell flat, which was
confirmed by the representative of
the company union"
The rest of the speech along this
line had to do with the possibility of
the ship subsidy bills going through
on the 26th of May. This failed to
pass to give relief to the poor ship
owners.
The remainder of the speech had to
do with Safety first" According to
the "vice president" the monthly ex-
pense to the company through acct
dents and deaths since the first of the
year has been $4,000. The total ac-
cidents since the first of the year
has been 1000 and some odd cases.
This months company union bull
letin" emphasizes the Importance Of
safety first"
The bosses are driving the men to
greater speed and where two ten-inch
planks were formerly used on the in
side scaffolding the men are told that
they can get along with one. One
riveter tells me that this is not enough
as they have heavy tools and hose to
drag along.
Why all this noise about Safety
first" when men are driven at high
speed and compelled to work under
such conditions?
The Sun is getting dry dock work
(short jobs); a few car-floats on the
ways is all the work in sight at
present.
A fellow asked the company "stool"
when the notice for closing was 60
ing to be posted, his reply was, "Is
that the rumor?" IS.

DECLARE WALL ST.
CAUSED COLOMBIA
OIL LAW CHANGE
Loan Follows Repeal and
Lease Dickering

BOGOTA, Colombia, June 10-De-
claring that the presidential repeal of
the protective petroleum legislation
was made under pressure of Wall
Street'and the White House." Deputy
Dell Vale of the Colombian liberal
party yesterday launched an attack
on the administration.
The influence of American inter-
ests in securing the suspension of the
petroleum laws in Colombia was rec
ognized when the president signed
his repeal.
Negotiations for the leasing of the
Barco oil field near the Venezuelan
border are at present in progress be-
tween the minister of the interior and
the American investors.
A substantial loan to the Colombian
government from American bankers
was announced directly after the
suspension of the petroleum legisla-
ton.

TEXTILE STRIKERS
FIGHT Be TRAYERS
Textile Workers Union
Issues Appeal

The New Bedford Textile Workers
Union has issued an appeal to all
workers to leave the nisleaders of the
American Federation of Textile Oper-
ators and to join in a militant strug-
gle against the wage-cut:
For eight weeks now the textile
workers of New Bedford have CON
Quoted militant struggle against the
10 percent wage cut and for a decent
standard Of living.
The mill owners thought that New
Bedford would be like Fall River that
the officials of the United Textile
Workers and the American Fedora
ton of Textile Operatives, Mr.. Batty
and others would be able to strangle
any strike move by the workers.
However, this was not to be. The
entrance of the Textile Mill Commit
tees changed the entire situation. I'm
der the leadership Of the Textile Mill
Committees the hitherto unorganized
textile workers were organized and
led into the fight.
At first the mill owners and their
agents thought that the new union
would soon collapse. They sent Mr.
Batty to try to break up the picket
lines and beat up one of the workers
organizers. But instead Of being
frightened the workers answered blow
for blow and Mr., Batty retired. Now
the mill owners will use the police
and courts and the usual strike terror
viii begin. Detective agencies will be
hired to frame up the leaders of the
strike. Nothing win be left undone
in the attempt to crush the new union
In order to meet this terror more
effectively, the textile workers have
decided to reorganize themselves into
the New Bedford Textile Workers
Union affiliated with the National
Textile Mill Committees. This union
will be based on the slogan: One fac
tory one branch-One industry, one
union!
At recent conference the workers
elected their new strike committee and
officers. The following are the Of
ficers:
IESSiueHl5 "A. ,. AuaO (WeaVef,
Portuguese); first vice pres, F. Will
lett (French-Canadian, spinner; sec
ond vice pres, j. De Mello (Por-
tuguese, unskilled); third vice pres,
j. Porter (American weaver; fourth
vice pres, E. Mendes american, un-
skilled; fifth vice pres, ]. Comes Ga
Negro worker), and financial secre-
tary-treasurer, A. Izyk polish loom
fixer, formerly of the A. F. t. o..
All the funds of the New Bedford
Textile Workers Union will be de-
posted to be drawn out by the presi-
dent and secretary-treasurer only.
This new union is here to stay.
During the past eight weeks the
workers have learned the lesson that
whether the strike is won or lost,
only "a union of their own can protect
them. The union accordingly now
raises the following demands:
A. Abolition of 10 percent wage cut.
NO percent increase in wages.
as4Qr hour, 5-day week.
IVA pay for equal work.
