v Washington, June 26.-(UP)-The American Federation of Labor is 'sthe only organization that has ever helped the miners" President Will liam Green said in replying to the attack by Theodore Dreiser on the A. F. of L. and it's affiliate, the United Mine Workers.
 During the last ten years" Green said, more than $S,000, 008, 900 (billion) have been spent in the coal fields of Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Illinois and Kentucky. The money was spent in an effort to pro- tect wage scales and working condi- tions of miners and it was used to feed men, women, and children.
 "Furthermore, MT DreIser shows an utter lack of knowledge of the organization activities of the A. F. of l.. The United Mine Workers organized both skilled and unskilled workers. The least skilled among the miners are protected just the same as the more skilled.
 During this wage-cutting cam- paign we have protected the unskill- ed worker in the maintenance of his wage scale. The distressing and in- human conditions described by Dr Dreiser as existing in the coal field:

YOUTHFUL TRIO
 OF AMERICANS
 WIN IN ENGLAND
Sidney Wood, Francis X.
 Shields and John Van Ryn Win Their Matches

Wimbledon, England, June % - (UP) - Americas youthful trio of Davis cup competitors qualified to- day for the quarter-final round on the wimbledon mems singles cham pionship.
 Sidney Wood, 19-year-old New Yorker. defeated c. E. Malfroy, a Cambridge student and top ranking New Zealand player. 6-3. 10-12, 10-8, 6-4. His 21 year old fellow townsman, Francis x. Shields. de- feated John s. Cliff, London city champion, 6-2. 6-0, 6-2. and John Van Ryn of Philadelphia, 26-year- old senior member of the squad, de- feated Christian Boussus of France, 6-2, 1-6, 6-2, 6-1.
 Van Ryn's triumph was decided upset and left France with Jean Borotra as its only representative in the mems singles division. The Phil- adelphian, more noted as a doubles player than in the singles, had the match we'll in hand save in the sec ond set when his usually dependable forehand failed him. Capitalizing this weakness the southpaw French man hammered away for his only set in the match.

Water Spout Struck Cleveland To-day In
 Residential Zone
Wind of Cyconic Speed Hit the City Just Before Noon
 " Skies Had Just Cleared From Storm

Cleveland, O., June 26-UP) - A water spout accompanied by win of cyclonic velocity, struck Cleveland shortly before noon to- day.
 Preliminary reports said heavy damage had been inflicted in the residential section of the metropolis tan area.
 Hundreds of automobiles were stalled as traffic became paralyzed by the torrent which weather bureau officials said was believed unpfe- cedented.
 The waterspout struck less than an hour after the skies had cleared from a storm of lesser intensity. Skies were blackened and the entire city plunged into darkness moderate winds swept in with the first downpour which continued for nearly an hour. The skies cleared momentarily and then became oyer- cast as the second storm descended.
 Telephone and telegraph compan- ies reported hundreds of miles of communication lines were down in the outlying districts.
 The storm lashed the city nearly 30 minutes before subsided. It sped up the Eastern Lake Erie shores towards Cocneaut and Ashtabula which reported it's arrival shortly afternoon. Reports said that area felt the force in the same manner as Cleveland.
 Reports from suburban districts indicated estimated that the proper ty damage would be considerable.
 Power lines were out a while and local radio stations reported they were shut off for nearly ten minutes as power went off.
 In the downtown area hundreds of cars were abandoned at street in- tersections as motors stalled. Tops were torn away and scattered along the streets.
 Storm sewers were unable to ac- commodate the heavy flow of water and curbs were overfiowing into store fronts.
 Lightning and heavy thunder blasts rode in with the tempest, adding to the general confusion and fear. Bremen were kept busy answering numerous calls to homes which had been struck by lightning.
 Windows in stores, homes and of flee buildings were shattered. One girl office worker was cut by fly ing glass. Trees were uprooted and telephones poles were snapped off. Because of the condition of com munication lines, it was impossible immediately to ascertain the extent
