Washington, July 19 P)-Wanted: By the United States navy a pie ure of Capt. John Rudd, L. s. N. one time commander of "Old Iron sides" native of Rhode Island, resident of Fredericksburg, Va.
 Captain Rudd is the only com mander of the Washington navy yard whose photograph is not in the naval archives. He died at Philadelphia in 1S67 and the navy has been unable to find any de- scendants or relatives who couIi furnish either portrait or personal history of the captain.

Dedication of Verdun Monument
 Finds City Nearly Resurrected
BY MINOTT SAUNDERS (NEA Service Writcr)

Paris, July 19.-"Verdun has been the most splendid of our national achievements in the eyes of Ameri- ca"
 This was the sentiment conveyed to thousands of war veterans by Raymond Poincare, premier of France, who delivered a culogy to the dead from the base of the ma jestic monument, symbol of French courage and patriotism, dedicated at Verdun to those who gave their lives on the most terrible battlefield the world has ever known.
 This struggle. when 40000B Frcnchmen died for the slogan "They shall not pass is one of the chief reasons which determined the entrance Of the United States into the war, France feels. Tt is why the leading statesmen of the allied countries felt impelled to come dur ing the war 10 salute the martyred city of Nerdun. to visit the citadel and the surrounding country" Poin- care said.
 A Patriotic Pilgrimage
 Tt was for each of them a sort of patriotic pilgrimage and they did not conceal the emotion which they felt before the waste lands which circled these old walls.
 When the United States decided to stand by us, the submarine war was without doubt the cause of it's intervention. But the opinion which the Americans had formed of France because of the Marne, Artois. the Somme and Nerdun. showed them in great measure what kind of war it was"
 Premier Poincare reiterated the governments desire that reparations | payments be made on the lines laid down in the Young plan, and Presi- | dent Gaston Doumerguc. foremost of the many distinguished visitors. also laid stress on the observance Of the peace treaties.
 The resurrection of Ncrdun is now fairly complete. The city once proud as the strongest citadel of eastern Franco, has come into its own again. New buildings line tho streets and comfortable hotels ac- commodate the visitors that flock there daily,

CALM SETTLES
IN CkSTONIA
AFTER ATTACK
Textile Workers. Union
Claims Eight Kidnapers

identified.
BY ARTHUR F. DE GREVE,
United Press staff Correspondent

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Sept. IL
Calm had settled over Gastonia and
Mecklienburg counties today after a
week filled with dramatic incidents.
The parade of startling happen
ings began last Thursday in the
county courtroom here, where six
teen textile strikers were being tried
for the fatal shooting of Police
Chief Aderholt of Gastonia, when
an ef1gy of Aderholt was introduced
by the state. The prisoners turned
pale. The widow of the police chief
and her daughter turned their eyes
from the CHASTITY sight and wepti
silently.
Then came testimony by officers
Tom Gilbert and A. j. Roach, re-
lating how the small town police
chief had been killed in front of
the strikers headquarters which was
turned suddenly into a blazing fort
resS.
Headlines Shrieked the reported
Shoot to KILL order said to have
been given by Fred Erwin Beal,
southern district organizer of the
National Textile Workers Union.
With this startling testimony well
under way, Juror j. G. Campbell,
newspaper vendor, suddenly suffered
mental collapse, causing nistrial
of the murder case.
After ordering a mistrial Monday,
Judge M. v. Barnhill set Sept. 30
as the date for a new trial.
Less than ten hours later a mob
of Communists stormed a
rooning house in Gastonia, kid
mapped three union organizers, beat
one severely and conducted reign
of terror in Charlotte while seek
ing Tom Unison, a defense attor-
ney, with shouts of String him up"
Reports that new trouble was i'm
minent in Gastonia could not be
verified early today.
Meanwhile. Solicitor John Car
penter was pushing vigorously his
investigation of the kidnapping in
cident and attorneys for the Ma
tional Textile Workers Union an
nounced civil and criminal charges
would be filed Immediately against
eight men said to have been recog-
niZed in the mob.

JUDGE ALLOWS
DRASTIC CURB
AGAINST UNION
Injunction ForbidS Clothing
Workers to Organize
in Factories.

BIZ scripps -Hor1rd Netrspqper AUt0nce
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 11.-Judge
w. H. Kirkpatrick Of the federal
court of this district has issued an
Injunction against the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America, which
labor leaders assert is one of the
most drastic anti-labor injunctions
ever granted.
It was issued at the request Of
the attorneys for a number Of
clothing manufacturers who are OPP
posed to attempts to unionize their
establishments For two months
the Amalgamated has been conduct
ing an intensive organizing cam
paign. Many factories have been
unionized and now are in contrac-
tural relations with the union. The
membership in the union. accord
ing to its officials, has increased six
fold since July.
The strikes which have been con-
Quoted, according to the police de-
partment here, have been peaceful
Works Great Benefits
The Amalgamated. which has
more than 100000 members en-
ployed in the manufacture of mems
and boys clothing. is one Of the
largest and richest trade unions in
the country and has been recognized
for years by the largest clothing
manufacturers in the various cloth
ing centers with the exception OF
Philadelphia.
The largest clothing manufactur-
ers in the world, Hart Schaffner &
Marx, hav been in contractual re-
lations with the union for eighteen
years without strike.
The Amalgamated has attracted
attention because of its teachings
that the organized workers should
make themselves responsible for
efficient production.
Unexpected by Union
The Injunction issued by Judge
Kirkpatrick was entirely unexpected
by the attorneys of the union. They
say they had been told by the fed
eral Judge last FRIDAY 10 prepare d
brief in reply to the petition for an
Injunction under the Sherman act
by the manufacturers, to be pre-
sented to Judge Kirkpatrick Tues
day The injunction was issued
Monday.
The injunction forbids the union
or its officers to do anything toward
unionizing the shops of any of the
compliments in the case. They must
not take any steps looking to the
calling of strikes and this includes
the spending of any of the funds
of the union for that purpose.
AS the Amalgamated in its cam
paign of unionization has paid
strikers benefits from the first day
of the strike, to prevent suffering,
this is regarded by organizers as a
BODY blow.

tempt to liquidate the problem in
this manner, regardless of a stipu-
lated plebescite, emanated from eX-
cellent sources. 1t is expected the
government will make a proposition
to Germany on the subject soon.
1t was stated that France was not
interested in the outright purchase
by Germany Of the mines, but pre-
ferred something in the nature of a
cooperative commercial agreement,
whereby France would retain a GER
tain control therein so as to pro-
tect the Lorraine iron and steel in
dustry, which needs the Saar coal.
