Executive Council of the National Fed
Grafton of Federal Employees today were
holding conferences with members OF
Congress on the program for which they
stand.
In winding up their meeting, the
council attacked William Green, presl-
dent of the American Federation OF
Labor. for reputedly attempting to stir
sentiment among the federation for
reconciliation between the two groups,
which split on the reclasSification issue.
At the same time the council called
upon Congress for a new classification
act, which would extend this principle
to the field service.
President Green "is now planning to
bore from within" the council said in
a statement on the reported move to
bring the Federal employees back into
the ranks of the Federation of Labor,
from which it withdrew because the
latter opposed classification backed by
its affiliate.
Few Urge Acceptance.
"A former employe of the National
Federation of Federal Employees, dis
charged for cause, is endeavoring to
work up sentiment in favor of a ref
erendum on our relations with the
American Federation of Labor" the
council said
1t added that "fewer than a half
dozen" locals have urged acceptance
of "the invitation from President Green
to attend the meeting of the Executive
Council Of the federation of labor to
discuss sthe problem at issue with the
thought in view of finding a way to
adjust the present situation

new DRIVE ON
DALE STARTED
BY RIVER SUIT
State Move Seen as Effort
to Force Huge Sewer
Plant on Muncie.

By Times Spccfal
MUNCIE, Ind. May IA new
drive against the administration Of
Mayor George r. Dale Of Muncie
was opened today.
The latest activity against the
mayor who has driven the corrupt
elements from the city and saved
thousands Of dollars 10 taxpayers by
smashing the paving trust came in
the form Of information that
mandate suit would be filed BY the
state TO halt pollution Of White
river"
Dale's supporters see in the move
an attempt to force through the
plan for an intercepting sewer
system and disposal plant which
Dale has fought consistently and
successfully since he took Office.
The mayor has stated on several
occasions that he realizes the citys
needs for more up-to-date system,
but declares that he will not pile
such an excessive burden on tax
PAYERS at this time, as the action
would mean that scores of property
owners could not pay the heavy as
scssments.
Cost Would Be Huge
A survey more than year ago by
the city engineer resulted in re-
port that the project would cost at
least $4,000 600. and one prominent
Muncie contractor, with years Of ex-
perience in the business. asserts that
the cost would be far greater.
Experience in other cities has
shown, say municipal officials, that
the city should own its waterworks
system before it launches any such
plan as that contemplated by coun-
ell members. who have fought Dale
in an effort to put over the sever
age system here.
Purchase OF the Muncie water
works plant would mean an outlay
OF three-auarters OF a million or
more, officials declare.
Hundreds OF property owners al
ready are carrying assessments for
sewers, paving. curbing and gutter
far in excess of the value of their
lots" asserted Lester Holloway, city
controller. today. They were as
sessed almost into bankruptcy by
the paving grabs which were showed
through during the John Hampton
administration.
Burden Too Great
TO ask the taxpayer to shoulder
the huge burden of a new sewerage
system would be almost criminal at
this time"
One Muncie daily paper has been
carrying queries as to whether resi-
dents would not be willing to pay
a few cents more" taxes for the new
plant.
Dale's supporters declare that this
is an attempt TO dupe the people
into the belief that the cost to them
would be negligible if the plant were
