Bitter Words Are Hurled at
Mine Union Chief by
Illinois Group.

Braving convention packed
against them, and the gavel in the
hand of President John Lewis, in
surgent Illinois delegates to the
convention of the United Mine
Workers of America today staunchly
fought against a resolution which
would rule out the right to enioin
the international from interference
III local affairs.
Bitter denunciation of Lewis in
terference in the Illinois district
was hurled by George Craggs of
Buckner, who condemned the presi-
dent and his international organ
izerS for using tactics III that state
which he said would have done
credit to the NOTORIOUS Pennsyl-
vania state constabulary."
Are we to stand the dictation by
one man, and do nothing to halt
the throwing Of a monkey wrench
In the union machinery at a time
when we must negotiate wage
'agreements?" shouted Craggs.
Called Move to Destroy
This anti-injunction resolution
is introduced for no other purpose
than to destroy the Illinois Or
ganization so that we can not ne
gotiate a new wage contract.
"The officials of the interna-
tional and the district should be
made to get together, or made to
quit their jobs"
CraggS outlined in part the his
tory of the attempt of Lewis to oust
the duly elected Illinois officials and
place in their stead a provisional
government, and the steps taken
through court injunctions by the
Illinois men to bolt this ''usurpa-
tion.''
Lewis has had his eye on District
II since he became president. The
only thing he has done has been
the revocation of charters, and the
placing of provisional governments
in power against the wishes Of the
membership" he said.
Lewis Is Defended
Craggs declared that the revolu-
tionary rank and file" movement
in Illinois was "au right to the in
ternational officers as long as it ap-
peared it would disrupt the district
organization
But sooner than see the conven-
ton go on record against the in
junction, would have it remain in
force until doomsday."
Defenders of Lewis were not slow
in coming forth. Charles Quigley
of Elkville, ILL.,, declared that not all
the miners were backing District
President John Walker, and that
many desired the injunction dis
solved.
P. T. Fagin of Pittsburgh, a dis
trict chief and chairman of the
resolutions committee, rose to the
defense of Lewis and the resolution,
and declared that the United Mine
Workers always had opposed such
step.
But Walker answered with the
declaration that when mo justice
could be received" from the inter-
national, it was necessary to go to
the courts for redress"
Pennsylvania insurgents Joined
with the Illinois miners in declar-
ing that the injunction is the only
means whereby the individual miner
has opportunity to obtain redress
against the intTnational.

The deStroyers were the Paul

Asiatic fleet.
Despite fears of a Japanese at
tack on the foreign settlement,
American and British consular Off
Gals decided the situation had not
grown sufficiently critical to war
rant advising their nationals to
evacuate.
The general strike ordered by the
Chinese as protest against the
Japanese invasion became increas-
ingly effective this evening. Business
was at a Standstill. Banks were
closed.
AirmaiI Is Suspended
The strikers threatened to tie up
essential services, food supplies, fuel
and similar commodities, but the
situation had not yet become criti-
cal.
AirmaiI and train services were
suspended. Ffle morale of foreign
ers and Chinese, both in the inter-
national settlement and French
concession, however, in the face of
the nerve-wracking firing and gen.
eral turmoil remained high.
Martial law remained in force.
Military regulations we're tightened
to prevent disorders. Order in the
settlement remained excellent, With
no hysteria.
Frightened coolies huddled in cor
ridors of Office buildings in the set
tlement. The corridor of the United

wives and children of delivery mes
sengers.
Many japanese, fearing reprisals,
concentrated their families in the
vicinity of the customs jetty on the
water front, in view of the foreign
warShips lying in midstream. Japan
had thirty-five warships anchored
in the Whangpoo river with more
on the way.
Japanese naval and marine REIN
forcements were expected to reach
Shanghai early Saturday.

PORTLAND, England, Jan. 29.-
Search for the submarine M-2
continued today in the angry chan
mel, although weary crews of res
cue ships and anxious crowds ashore
had given up all hope of saving any
OF the sixty men aboard.
Heavy seas hindered operations of
minesweepers and destroyers as they
scraped the ocean floor. Divers we're
ready to go below, but probably can
not.
A section of the rescue fleet was
sent north Of Portland where a
sweep brought up two submarine
hand flags believed to have belonged
TO the M-2. Operations were re-
stunned there in hope that further
traces of the M-2 might be found.
"Camels" Are Used
Searchlights played Thursday
night on the channel water. The
barometer dropped and the temper
ature rose.
Four lifting "camels," huge CYL
inders employed to raise submarines,
Joined the rescue craft and in
creased the excitement of the crowd
on shore.
The camels are submerged along
side submarine and secured with
wire hawsers, after which water is
pumped out of the camels by COM
pressed air and the buoyance of the
cylinders raises the submarine.
Drivers Find wreckage
The commanding officer in charge
Of the search reported that divers
had been unable to reach two OBJ
structions located soon after the
M-2 disappeared, but had reached
one six miles north of Portland
