Threats Of Arrests
Try to Throw Delegate
Overheard on S. S.
Muntropic

NEW YORK. The SIS. Muntropic
of the Munson line, docked here on
Sunday. The crew asked for draw
and were refused. Aided by a ships
delegate of the Marine Workers In
dustrial Union, a committee of the
crew went to the captain and de-
manded full pay-off on Monday. They
were refused and police were called
on board. Four officers we're station
ed on the gangWay and the list as
sistant engineer attempted to throw
the delegate overheard, but was de-
feated in his purpose.
The ship shifted from Brooklyn to
West Street on Tuesday night and
committee of the union crashed
through the main gate to join the
crew in their action, but were re-
pulsed at the gangplank by gang
of officers.
Nine members of the crew went tc
the company offices and demanded
their payroll. They won their de-
mand after threats to Jail the union
representative failed to intirnidate
them.
This is the 18th struggle on the
Munson line in the past year. Special
police guards are now employed by
Munson to keep the union organizers
off the ships, but Tuesdays action
testifies to the activity OF the
MW.IU.
Leaflets we're issued to the long
shoremen calling for solidarity In

Unemployment a Gift
From God to Do Men
Good, Pope Declares

VATICAN CITY, Sept 2S.-With
outspread smooth hands. the Pope
today addressed a group of $50 job
less workers who came to him for
guidance for a way out of their
sufferings.
@If divine providence caused you
to be deprived of work" said the
Pope, whose vestments glittered
with Jewels, she did it for your
own good. Being without work, you
are all the more appreciatiye Of
work when it returns. The fact
that you are lacking material work
does not prevent you from doing
spiritual work"
Then piously raising his hands
upward in prayer, the Pope slowly
turned back into the rich silence of
his luxurious quarters, leaving the
workers outside-to starve.

enraptured, "but I shall know after

Thomas considered. No, he would
not lunch at once. He wanted Sybil
to be there ahead Of him, so that she
could not escape as soon as she saw
him. He would enter the dining room
In a quarter of an hour.
He wandered into his consultation

He dissolved knife-end of powder in

He wanted to go up to their table,

thing that might follow this "other-

entitled to write in this way, but when
It flashed through his mind that Sybil
might ignore his demand, his con-
seriousness became befogged with rage
and bitterness. Thus to warn Sybil of
the danger seemed almost like extortion,
something quite alien to his whole
nature. He crossed out the otherwise, :"

When he had written this he became
calmer. He knew he would keep his
promise. He folded the letter and put
it into his pocket. Then he looked at
his watch. The quarter Of an hour
had passed.
The dining room was on 2 deck also;

The steward nodded, and went ahead,

laughed. Sybil must be among them
but he did not see her; in fact, he saw
nothing at all. His legs had grown
curiously weak and he had sort Of
cramp in his jaw, as though he could
neither open nor close his mouth.
Hello, doctor, there you are! I was
just going to have you sent for. Thought
you couldn't find your way here" said
the captain.
The table beside which Thomas stood
was at one end of the dining room.
In contrast with the others it was
long and narrow. There we're only men,
most of them in uniform.
Thomas pulled himself together, rec

face. He bowed to the officers, and
when he sat down at the only vacant
place, found cup of steaming bouillon
on his plate; he took it up, burned his
tongue, but did not even notice it. His
eyes searched the room in a wide
circle.
Sybil was not there Neither she nor
Shortwell. This filled Thomas with all
sorts of apprehensions, but, for the time
being gave him the presence of mind
which he needed to carry on an in
consequential conversation with his
neighbor on the left. He had intro
duced himself as Kohler. He was

At this moment the conversation Of
the men at the officers table was con-
centrated almost entirely upon the
Baroness Mergentheim. Thomas had
noticed during his conversation with
Kohler that the lady of the lift had
come In, but again he had paid no
particular attention to her. Now, he
thought, she must be exceptionally
beautiful II all these men at his table
are as enthusiastic at the sight of her
as was the lift boy short time ago.
Old Frederick the Great" what Is
more, used exactly the same expression
as the half-baked lift boy. Did you
ever see such q dream of beauty?"
For time the second officer held
every ones attention, for he knew the
Baroness family. Finest old aristoc-
racy, but completely broke. The father
was in active military service. After
the war he went into all sorts of busi-
ness ventures, but the more he tried,
the deeper he got into debt. His only
son helped him to the best of his abil-
ity-particularly in getting into debt.
