had termed the greatest labor march
ever undertaken in the United

Nearly q hundred miners suffered
battered heads and six persons were
injured seriously enough to require
medical treatment, including two who
suffered minor bullet wounds.
Fleeing pell-mell when the firing
began. the invading strikers deserted
approximately 800 of their automo-
biles and trucks at the scene Of the
onslaught. In the hurry to escape.
automobiles were driven into bitches
or plunged into cornfields along the

be but a matter of hours but she rail-
lied sufficiently to greet members Of
her family who had arrived while she
was unconscious.
With her are her divorced husband,

ternational Harvester company, and
her three children. Mrs. Muriel Nc
Cormick Hubbard. Mrs. Mathilde

Express Views on Labor
Prosperity Plan
WAGE CUTTING ATTACKED
Would Mobilize Resources and
Credit on Some Basis as
in Time of War
WAGE CUTTING ATTACKED

Cleveland, Aug. 25-(P,-Emergency
governmental control of industry was
proposed Thursday in a political
economic platform adopted by the
executives of 81 railroad brotherhoods
with the possibility OF support from
united battlefront of organized
labor.
I'm cooperation with all other in
dustrial and agricultural organiza-
lions of workers." the railroad labor
executives said, Eve propose before
the election in November to put OH
record every aspirant to public office
either for or against labor pros
perity program"
Taking the view that present re-
duced wage levels cause reduced con-
sumption, which in turn forces re-
duced production the program adopt
ed by the railway labor executives
association calls for federal "mobil-
ization" of industry to halt the vici-
Gus circle.
The labor prosperity program"
was summarized by the executives as
follows:
Wage cutting must stop. Com
petition In wage cutting and price
cutting is simply competitive suicide
Adequate wages, adequate prices and
adequate employment must be restor-
ed.
"Our national resources and ma
tional credit should be modified and
employed as they would be in a time
of war, for the purpose of coordinat-
ing and compelling the use of the in
dustrial facilities of the nation for
the employment of all those capable
Of self-support.
Adequate compensation thus in
sured to the workers will provide the
purchasing power necessary to sup
port the agricultural and industrial
production of the nation.
I'VE are opposed to any permanent
Specialization of business or property.
But to meet the dangerous failure of
the managers of private industry to
maintain their operations and to ex-
change their products through volun-
tary cooperative methods, we believe
that an emergency governmental con-
troll is now as essential to the ma
tional welfare as it would be in q
time of war.
I'VE, therefore, advocate a civil
mobilization, under civil authority, to
organize our resources for national
defense against the destructiveness of
present uncontrolled economic forces. >"
In addition to adopting the govern
mental control policy. the association
decided to oppose for the present all
further consultations of railroads.

WALKER ATTEMPT TO
PRESENT POLITICAL.
TESTIMONY BALKED.
Roosevelt Declines to Hear Evil
dence on Plot to Get
Gotham Mayor

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 25.--(P)-Balked
In an attempt to show a Republican
plot" to get" him. Mayor James ].
Walker went on with hts defense
against removal charges Thursday. It
seemed likely that before the long de-
tense Is finished the courts will have
ruled on Walkers contention that
Governor Frank D. Roosevelt cannot
legally Dust him.
More defense testimony was ex-
pected Thursday concerning the
charge that Walker permitted his
brother. Dr. William H. Walker. to
split fees with doctors handling city
cases.
Dr. E. Stiles Potter, physician at
tached to the New York corporation
counsel's office. testified Wednesday
night he had sent no cases In the last
four weeks to four physicians in
volved with DR.. Walker in the fee
splitting testimony. He said he
stopped on orders from the corpora
ton counsel's office. He expressed
the opinion a fee-dividing partner
ship between doctors was ethical.
John ]. Curtin. the mayors coun-
sci, placed Walter w. Westall, Repub-
lican state senator from Westchester
county, on the stand Wednesday as
the first witness Of eight Republican
state leaders whom he wished to
question concerning the contention
Of the mayors friends that the inves-
tigation was Republican plot.
Stand Is Definite
Before Senator Westall had uttered
a single word of testimony, Governor
Roosevelt ruled out all testimony
along that line.
Curtin called Walter Hyans, rep
resentive of a newspaper clipping bu-
reau. Hyams said that. about the
time 1t was announced Samuel Sea.
bury was to be counsel for the Hof-
stadter legislative committee. he went
to see Seabury and subsequently
called on one of his assistants. Jacob
Gould Schurman. Jr., to discuss a
contract for clippings
For what purpose Is this testi-
mony?" Governor Roosevelt inter-
rupted.
ITO establish" Curtin replied. "tha.
this investigation had one individual
in mind even before 1t started"
Il don't believe this testimony Is
needed" the governor said.
II must go back again to my pre-.
vious statement" Curtin said. "You
have here dead record. What was
the motive?"
when did this take placer" the
governor asked.
Curtin replied that the converse
ton took place In February, 1881.
IF q man says, my purpose Is to
get Mayor Walker and that Is stated
even before the journey is started"
Curtin argued. don't you think tina.
should be BROUGHT out?"
I again rule" said Governor Roose-
welt, that I cannot take such testt-
mony."
