Under direct pressure of the
administration lea d ers the
house reversed itself on the Tink-
ham census bill amendment passed
day before yesterday to cut down
representation from states which
prevent Negroes from voting. The
leader of the Hoover majority, Til
son, himself introduced another
amendment to take out the whole
section relating to Negro disfran-
chisement and aliens, and permit
states to send representation based
on total population, no matter how
many aliens are included, or how
many Negroes are deprived of a vote
in violation of the constitution.
After this Tilson proposition was
voted through, the house passed the
whole census bill by 272 to 105.
Hoover Message.
A message from Hoover was read
in Congress calling on that body to
involve itself with his Claw En-
forcement Commission" in the con-
centration and Capitalization of the
prohibition service under a single
head, responsible directly to Hoover.
Part of his message demanded that
Congress enlarge the army of spies
and special officers, also the navy
of armed cutters, at the better dis
posal of Hoover under the proposed
arrangement, and stated the pur-
pose of this new armed force to be
"unification and strengthening of
our border patrols both in connec-
ton with prohibition and illegal
entry Of aliens"
The house had adjourned without
doing any business yesterday be-
cause of the noisy demonstration of
southern representatives against the
Tinkham amendment. Everybody

NATIONS LEAGUE
STRIKES AT U. S,
TO help BRITAIN
Labor Party Backs It's
Native Imperialism

MADRID, June 6.-The League of
Nations Council met in secret ses-
sion here today to consider the min
critics question.
It found the British labor party
lining up completely with the Bald
win administrations imperialist pol
icy of using the league as a weapon
against the imperialism of the
United States.
Step to War.
This action of the League of Ma
tions is interpreted here as an indi-
cation of the sharpening conflict be-
tween American and British imper-
ialism. Great Britain's capitalist
government, smarting under the an
noying competition of American
ship owners who, aided by the U. S.
government in the announced at
tempt to drive the British out of
certain trade, and sore at the recent
hulldozing of England and France
by Morgan and Young in the Dawes
plan conference, is using all its
power to strike back.
There was double effort under
way to place responsibility for the
present dissatisfaction of some 81
100000 minority people of the
United States.
Blame Wilson.
The two efforts, specifically, are:
1.-The secret minorities' report
prepared by the committee under

British foreign secretary, who is at
present at the meeting. This report

Call for Organization

Denouncing the policy of the A.
F. of L. officialdom in the food in

breaking" Local 719 of the Cooks
and Broilers Wednesday night unan-
imously voted to abandon the A. F.
of L., and affiliate with the Anal
gamated Food Workers, which was
characterized as "a fighting, mill
tant, industrial organization"
The local took this action at a
special meeting called by Organizer
Harry Annis, and held at Irving
Plaza, 18th St. and Irving Pl.
Tremendous enthusiasm prevailed
when this action was taken by the
local. The members rose on their
feet and cheered for nearly 10 min
utes.
The members declared that the
abandonment of the A. F. of L. was
in line with the new and correct
policy in the direction of the new
Trade Union Center which will be
launched at the Cleveland Confer
ence.
Local Aided Strikers.
Although the immediate cause of
this step is the strikebreaking ac-
tivities of the A. F. of L. officialdom
against the courageous struggle OF
the cafeteria workers, long period
of disgust with the corrupt and anti
union policies of the A. F. of L. de-
termined the action on Wednesday
night.
Because Local 719 had taken the
lead in aiding the fight of the cafe
terra strikers, had given moral and
financial assistance to them, and
had joined with them in the picket
demonstrations three delegates of
the local at the New York Joint
Board were recently expelled. An
other reason for their expulsion is
found in the fact that the gang in

WOMAN Who died.
AS CHILD IS LIVING
Keighbor of Hoover'S Camp
Cannot Recall Ordeal
of Early Life.
BY a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

BY a STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.
SYRIA, Va, August 17.-One Of the
interesting residents Of the mountain
country near President Hoover's lodge
in the Blue Ridge is Fannie Broyles, .
little white haired old lady living on
Bob Graves farm here, whose chief
claim to fame Is that she once was
laid out for burial.
1t all happened many years ago
when Fannie was years old-and the
strange incident might never have
filtered out Of the mountains had not
a newspaper man about year ago
spread the story all over the country
with startling distortions.
Perhaps through a misunderstanding
of the facts In the case, the reporter
made it appear in his account that Miss
Broyles was a young lady who had Suf-
fered the weird experience quite re-
Gently. Many papers In various parts
of the country printed the story, and
before long letters were coming into
this section from curious persons IN
far-dung States.
Can't Remember Incident.
A number of those who wrote Miss
Broyles wanted to know just what her
sensations were during the Zero hour"
member anything at all about the oc-
currence, and all she knows today
about it is what her mother told her.
One man wrote her an offer Of mar.
riage. Some of the letters plainly
were from "cranks." Most Of the mis-.
Sives were tossed away somewhat testify
by their recipient.
The true story, as Miss Broyles re-
members 1t, Is that while playing near
her home she was struck on the head
by the falling linL of tree and rem
dered unconscious. She was carried
into the house and every effort to re-
vive her failed. Apparently she had
ceased to breathe and finally the frantic
parents mournfully gave her up for
dead.
Life Discovered.
An undertaken had been summoned,
so the story goes, and preparations
were being made for her funeral when
a member of the family, bending over
the inert form of the little girl, detected
some slight movement Of the facial
muscles. Instantly all was excitement
in the household. A mirror was held
over the childS mouth and q film Of
moisture developed.
Fannie was alive!
In a few hours the little girl had
opened her eyes and eventually she re-
OONCLCu NO1l4PACtC1J1 SAOCPO 4OI a oAA61AO
paralysis which has left her with limp
to this day.
Miss Broyles is one Of the active
members Of the Graves household. She
spends most Of her time in the kitchen,
assisting In the preparation Of meals,
preserving and other domestic duties.
OF a naturally quiet disposition, Miss
Broyles has little to say, except when
the subject Of newspaper men Is men
toned Her faith in the press has been
somewhat shaken by her experience Of
last year.
