MACH|N|STS BACK
FOES OF NEW LAWS
Union Supports A. F.. of L. in
Rejection of RecIassifica-
ton Proposals.

Rejection by the American Federation
of Labor Of proposed new reclassifica-
ton legislation, at its recent conven-
ton in Vancouver, was Endorsed last
night by Columbia Lodge, No. TIA, In
ternational Association of Machinists,
meeting in Naval Lodge Hall, Fourth
street and Pennsylvania avenue south
east.
It was on account of the Federation
of Labor's action that the National
Federation of Federal Employees now is
voting on withdrawal of its afiliation
from that organization.
The stand of the machinists was In
line with that of the Metal Trades
ton of Labor, of which they are a
part, the craftsmen opposing the pro-
posed legislation because 1t would bring
them under the Personnel Classification
Board in the consideration of wages.
At the headquarters of the Federal
Employee this morning it was said
that the result Of the balloting on with
drawel would not be reported until
returns are completed.
The employees officers have decided
upon this course, it was said, in order
that there might be no suggestion of
an attempt to influence the voting
locally.

and from the particular fact that close
to the body of Frankel, at the center
of the floor space OF the tent, was a
plate of cooked meat, of which ne was
perhaps partaking when violent oeath

DENOMINATION of his remains revealed
that the upper part of his decapitated
body rested in oppression and that his
garments had been badly torn. From
these facts 1 am OF the opinion that he
had been suddenly stricken down by
the heavy weight of a full-grown bear
Also it seems clear that the uncovered
neck of the unfortunate victim had
been instantly severed and that Andree,
standing nearby at one side OF the tent,
had seized his gun in an attempt to
shoot the bear when he, too, was set
upon by the same or another bear and

that all was not well on board and
that the plane had fallen while at

If the exact spot could be located and
proper electrical apparatus rugged up,
Capt. Baldwin believes that a search by
a properly equipped submarine for
Amundsen's body might be feasible. He
has been In touch with Norwegian au-

Little Dread Of Surgeons.
They appear to have little dread of
the surgeons, but are looking forward
with some curiosity to the funny ice
collars which, Miss Steer tells them, the
doctors will put around their hecks.
They don't mind doctors much. One
came into the hollow" once and gave
them toys and candy for the privilege
of looking at their teeth and down
their threats.
Whether or not they will be able to
see any more sights depends on how
they respond to the operations. Miss
Sizer wants to get them back home as
soon as possible They will remain at
the hospital all day tomorrow and pos
slbly Saturday. Sunday she hopes all
will be well enough to attend Sunday
school at the Clarendon Baptist
Church, which has been very active in
mountain missionary work, and then
leave for home. II they are well enough
on Saturday a moving picture theater
party may be arranged for them.

COLLADAy CHOSEN
CHEST DRIVE HEAD
AGAIN THIS YEAR
Chairman of Successful 1880
Campaign Virtually Drafted
for Service.
UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES
INFLUENCE ACCEPTANCE
Conditions of Unemployment Led
to Demand for Experienced Head
to Raise Fund.
Workers May Give
JObless Funds to
Own Communities

In an effort to clear up any
misunderstanding regarding the
disposition of funds contributed
to the 100000 unemployment
Welief campaign here by Govern
ment employees residing in nearby
Virginia and Maryland, The Star
was asked today to bring to at
tention again the fact that any
givers in this class may specify
that their subscriptions are to go
to the agencies in their own
communities, and that such di-
version will be made.
This is covered in the following
section of the plan adopted for
raising 81 ,600,0 among Federal
workers toward the Community
Chest budget of $2,601 900:
THAT employees who reside in
Alexandria or other communities
adjacent to the District of CO.
lumbia to whose public relief
agencies they contribute be re-
quested to make their subscrip-
tons in response to the present
appeal. Any such ernploye may
indicate the portion he desires
paid to his local Community
Chest and same will be trans
mitted by the divisional chair
man."

Edward F. Collaoay, chairman of last
years Community Chest Campaign
Committee, today agreed to head the
Chests forthcoming drive for funds.
His acceptance Of the post of chair
man of the 1892 Campaign Committee
came after receipt of letter. virtually
drafting him, signed by John Poole
president of the Community Chest;
Robert v. Fleming, treasurer of the
Chest; Charles G. Glover, jr., member
of the Presidents Organization for the
Relief of the Unemployed, ard e. g
Graham, chairman Of the District OF
Columbia Committee. on Employment.
Yielded to Demand.
Mr.. Colladay previously had said he
did not wish to direct the Chest cam
paign and last year, when he accepted
the Guardianship of the Campaign
Committee, it was done with the under
standing that he would not be asked to
serve again.
He gave the unusual unemployment
and distress now existing as his reason
for putting aside personal conSidera-
lions and again taking the helm of the
Chest drive. , al
Mr.. Colladay was urged to accept the
craftsmanship again because Of his
success last year when the Chest raised
the largest amount in its history and
made a record notable in the United
States.
Wanted Experienced Man.
The Executive Committee of the
Chest felt that with present conditions
of unemployment and its aftermath it
would be necessary to have an eX-
perienced hand directing the drive in
order to raise this years quota of ap-
proximately $2,601 900. Mr.. Colladay
has been interested for years in social
work and has had wide experience in
organization work, especially during
the war.
While the Government departments,
under direction of a special committee
of Government officials are undertaking
tc raise at least 81 900 900, it is felt
that every effort must be put forth to
raise the balance of the fund, so that
the work of the. Chest, which now in
cludes the District of Columbia Com
mittee on Employment, may be carried
out adequately.

much Of a response. The youngsters
are familiar with snakes-the dreaded
rattlers Of the Blue Ridge-and when
they were told that the king cobra
was hundred times as poisonous as
the worst rattlesnake it was a trif1e
too much for them to believe.
The baby rhinoceros was in fine fet-
tie this morning and put on dance
for the visitors. They remained glued
to the iron bars before his cage longer
than anywhere else in the ZOO. All
the way out Miss Sizer has been recit-
ing to them rhyme about the ele-
phant-and the elephant was the one
animal they wanted most to see. But
it turned out to be such queer beast
that they couldn't quite comprehend it.
Then their holiday was over, and
work started-the work by which they
will keep warm in the windy, smoky
cabins this Winter. They were taken
to DR.. Sections Office in the Medical
Science Building for physical examinaT
lions. Lunch followed, after which
they returned to the Methodist home.
Late this afternoon they will go to the
hospital where they will be put to bed,
