Labor in South

Chattanooga, Tenn.-Debased work
conditions enforced on textile work
ers at East Marion, North Carolina
has marked these employees, said
David Hanly, legislative chairman
Tennessee Federation Of Labor, who
visited that strike area. The work
ers are employed by the Marion Man
ufacturing Company. They demand a
10-hour day and union recognition.
East Marion is a typical South
ern mill village" said Mr.. Hanly.
"Squalor and poverty are present at
every turn. The mill enforced work
day of IL hours and 20 minutes. A
standardized labor injunction has
been issued, but the strikers main
tain a 24-hour picket line. Not wheel

HOT TARIFF FIGHT
TO PROLONC ISSUE

Washington.-Prospects of a pro.
longed fight over tariff looms and the
issue may be carried over to the regu-
lar session of congress, which con-
venes the first Monday in December
When President Hoover called the
special session it was the belief that
the tariff would be gotten out of the
way before the regular session. Sen.
ate hearings on the Hawley bill
passed by the house, are being held
for the purpose of reaching an under,
standing before the senate convenes
next month.
Agreements can not be reached or
many features of the bill. The pro-
posal that the president be given ad-
ditional powers to lower or increase
the tariff on any particular commod-
ity will be fought with especial vigor

ANTI-STRIKE
Judge Is Called On to Quit
His Job

Madison, Wis.-E. B. Belden, anti
labor circuit judge of Kenosha, Racine
and Walworth counties, was declar-
ed unfit for his judicial office by
seven members of state legislative
committee that has been probing
Belden's loans from concern that he
afterwards freed from tax payments.
Two members of the committee ia
vor Belden. They present technical
defense, but do not refute the main
charge.
The majority report calls on Belden
to resign because his conduct brings
the courts into disrepute. 1t is also
recommended that the state board OF
bar examiners take proper steps to
disbar the Judge as a practicing at
torney.
1t was proven that Belden in 1915
solicited and received loans aggregat-
ing $4,000 from z. G. Simmons, Ke-
nosha manufacturer, and that these
loans were later cancelled. Belden
failed to pay any of the principal and
paid interest for one year.
Belden later ordered refund OF
100000 taxes to the Simmons con-
cern, and aided the same concern in
other litigation.

umph for striking employees Of the

WARES HOPE
For Senate Blasted; Sena-
tor King Changes

hington.-Senator King, demo
crat of Utah, has reversed his posi-
tion on the seating of William S.
Ware, of Pennsylvania, who is charg.
ed with defeating William B. Wilson
former secretary of labor and secre-
tary-treasurer of the United Mine
Workers, for seat in the senate By
fraud.
Senator Kings announcement is 8
severe blow to Wares hopes of win.
ming the contest. The Utah senator
predicts that Ware will not receive
10 votes.
The Ware forces have pinned their
hope on Senator King, a member of
the Reed senatorial campaign expen-
diture committee that reported Wares
election was won by corrupt methods
AS minority member of that COM
mittee, Senator King advocated that
Ware first be seated, in recognition
of the states rights theory, and then
he be expelled because of completely
in the election fraud.
1t requires a two-thirds vote to ex-
pei senator after he has been seat
ed. 1t requires only majority vote
to refuse to seat him.
The Ware forces are making their
fight on Senator Kings minority re-
port. BY playing for seating on the
technicality of states rights, to be
followed by expulsion, the latter could
then be blocked by 33 votes.
Senator King is an outstanding
champion of the states rights theory
but now he declares he has been COM
PEELED to reverse his position in this
case because he has found "that the
election was so fagrantly fraudulent
as to be entirely vitiated.'
"It is entirely out of the question
that the senate will seat Mr.. Ware,
Senator King declared. "He has been
losing strength continually from the
time his right to the seat was first
challenged. He will not receive lC
votes in the final test"
