AFGHANS CHANGE
mourning" FLAG
New Banner of Black, Red and
White Replaces Somber Square
and Crescent.
BY the Associated Press.

CALCUTTA, Bengal. July 12.-Be-
cause its old flag too often was taken
as a sign Of mourning, Afghanistan has
a new flag, on which are three perpen-
dicular stripes of black, red and white,
with the crescent of a mosque in the
center.
The old flag was black square in
the center of which Shone a white cres-
cent. Diplomats and foreign Office Of
f1cialS complained that citizens of other
nations invariably raised their hats
when passing nearby, believing it indi-
Gated funeral.
Then, too, the Afghans are not a sad
race and the Somber black was consid-
cred as altogether incongruous with the
gay music and decorations in general of
official functions. Its composition was
explained as indicating an age of dark
ness and world darkened by sin
through which Islam Shone in a clear,
cold light.
The flag. designed by King Nadir
Shah, is also intended to be symbolic,
the touch of black being meant to con-
vey the idea that Afghanistan for ages
was held within the grip of darkness.
The bright red band denotes the revo-
luton into which the country was
plunged after having emerged from the
darkness, while the white stands for
peace and prosperity of the nation.
The mosque in the center is designed to
announce to the world that Afghanistan
has achieved its present peace through
the grace of God and shall remain I'M
der the shadow of Islam forever.

FISCAL RELATIONS
GROUP DISPERSED
Holiday Wires His UnCer.
tainty as to When House
Study Will Start.

Members of the special committee oil
the House appointed by Speaker Long
worth to study fiscal relations between
the Federal and District governments
have not had time since their selection
few days ago to make plans for be-
ginning the inquiry.
Il do not know who was appointed
chairman of this committee and, there
fore do not have any idea as to the
probable time that the committee will
start its work" said Representative
William P Holiday of Illinois. in a
message to The Star today.
Members Have Dispersed.
Mr.. Holiday is at his home in George
town. Ill. and the other six members
Of the committee also had departed for
their homes when the appointments
we're made.
In view of the fact that Congress. has
just concluded the work of long SeS-
sion. the probabilities are that this
special committee will wait until near
the end of Summer before tackllng

when the personnel of the committee
was announced, is motoring to his
home. in Grand Rapids. The other
members of the committee are Repre-
sentatives Frear of Wisconsin, Beers OF
PENNSYLVANIA, Crisp of Georgia, Collins
Of Mississippi and Patman of Texas.
Created by Simmons Resolution.
The committee was created under a
resolution offered in the House by Rep
resenta tive Simmons of Nebraska
chairman of the subcommittee on Dis
trict appropriations in the House. He
obtained action on the resolution i'm
ruediately after the House confereeS
had yielded to the Senate by agreeing
10 raise the Federal contribution toward
the current District appropriation act
from IS, 900 900 to S9.500000.
The committee was given authority
b study taxation in the District and
to recommend changes. The appoint
ment of the House committee is ex-
pected to lead to renewal of the con-
test over fiscal relations in the next
session, but the contention of the Sen
ate that 100000 was an inadequate
Federal contribution has been greatly
strengthened by its victory in the cur
rent appropriation act.

DENY CARPENTERS
REPLACED LATHERS
Labor Officials Say Union
Workers Would Not
Break Rules.

Emphatic denial that union car
penters are taking jobs vacated by union
fathers who went on strike July l in
support of their demands for a So in
crease in wages was made today by Of
flcials of the local carpenters union as
the strike. which has tied up part of the
construction of number of large build
ing projects. continued in force.
While union fathers would not be at
work today, regardless of the strike, be-
cause they arc on the five-day week
schedule here, which now is virtually
the universal rule in the building trades
in washington reports were that the
controversy as yet has not been settled,
although hope is held out that an
amicable agreement would be reached.
Cause of Denial.
Spokesman for the group of employ
ers involved reported Thursday that in
at least one of the building projects
affected by the strike, work had been
resumed by substitute workmen, who
we're described as being union men of
trade other than the lathing, who
had been out of work" Later these sub
Stitute workmen were described in en-
ployers' circles as being union carpen-
tiers.
spokesman for the employing group
were true was made today, however, by
Richard H Burdette and John I.
Swarthout, business agents, and John
Macbeth. president of the Carpenter S
District Council.
Mr.. Burdette declared that if any
substitute workmen were engaged on
any of the building projects to replace
the striking union fathers, they were
not and could not be members of the
carpenters union.
Union Rules Strict.
He said that the union would not
permit union carpenters to take the
places of striking members of another
union trade and further did not be-
lieve that member of the carpenters
union would be willing to violate this
union rule
The union fathers are demanding an
immediate increase from $12 to S13 per
day and a further increase to $14 per
day affective october /. This has been
refused by the Employing PlaSterers'
Association. A number of conferences
have been held between the employers
and the union spokesman, but an
agreement had not been reached this
morning.

sale of the Youngstown Sheet g. Tube
Co. 10 the Bethlehem Steel Corporation
today took advantage of the week end
adjournment of court to plan shorten
ing Of the hearing by two or three
days.

ference to agree upon statement of
facts in the hope of materially short
ening the mass of testimony.
Monday Elton Hoyt, II, of Cleveland,
a partner of Pickands, Mather & Co.,
ore concern, will be called to the stand
in continuance of efforts of those op-
posing the billion dollar merger to show
that considerable Sheet g. Tube stock
was voted illegally in favor of the deal.
Henry Dalton, also of Cleveland, and
another Pickand5, Mather partner, has
testified that his concern spent So. 0O0.-
600 for Sheet & Tube stock voted in
favor of the consolidation and received
a loan of 100000 from Bethlehem for
few days.
The hearing is on the suit filed by
Myron c. Wick, jr., and the Interna-
tionai Shares Corporation of Cleveland

are affiliated with Cyrus S. Eaton,

the merger was fraudulently negotiated
and that the terms of four shares of
Bethlehem for three of Sheet e. Tube
we're unfair to the Youngstown stock
holders.
