DYE MARKET CHARGED
Head of Chemical Foundation Hits
Effort TO Remove Directors Of
Allied Corporation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 16-Francis P.
Garvan, president Of the Chemical
Foundation, said In a statement yester-
day that committee seeking to replace
four directors Of the Allied Chemical
& Dye Corporation is simply a tool of
the world cartel determined to obtain
possession of our markets"
He also declared that Allied Chemical
and Orlando Weber, its head, 'in a
large measure can take credit for the
fact that the representatives Of our
country alone go to the London Confer
ence with no power of pressure in the
hands Of any foreigner for any ne
cessity"
Caravans statement followed one by
Weber Wednesday charging that the
movement to replace the directors was
inspired by foreign interests and de-
nial by Rogers S. Lamont. secretary Of
the Stockholders Committee, sponsor
ing the change.
Il do not enter into the dispute be-
tween the company and the Stock Ex-
change" said Garvan. 1T is none of
my business. But 1t is my business and
the business of every American citizen
to see that this latest scheme of the
bankers under foreign control to de-
stroy our chemical independence is
crushed in no uncertain terms"

this does not mean that conference
subjects will be barred from discussion
The only business at conference head
quarters this afternoon was meeting
of the Committee on Subcommittee
of the Monetary Commission. The COM
mittee decided to set up Immediately
two sub-committees, one to deal with
problems connected with temporary
monetary measures and the other with
measures of more permanent nature.
A third committee to deal with move
ments of capital is contemplated, and
it was said that it probably would be
set up later.
The committee on subcommittee ad-
journed without naming chairmen. Mr.
Cox sat in the chair throughout the
long session, which was prolonged BY
some argument over what subjects
should have priority in the discussion.
This concluded all business scheduled
for conference headquarters until Mon

nounced. The number of such ap-
plications this year was 145,932,
against 1928 last year.
Efforts of the commission to
build up it's eligibility lists are
largely responsible for this great
increase. Present eligibility lists
are for the most part several years
old, and the names which remain
on them are largely those of can
didates who qualified with low
ratings. The new lists, it is felt,
will provide better material for

'NOMADS' LAUGH
At FEDERAL
CAMP PLAN
BY JAMES r. MCCARTHY

Naua SaruireN

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Oct. 20
GN.S0.-A young chap, sitting
next to me in an open box car,
pushed much handled news
paper toward me and snickered:
"This'Il hand you a laugh"
He pointed toward a news item
which stated the government was
planning to round up all the
transient unemployed and place
them in Federal concentration
centers" for care and education.
His eyes swept the length of
the fast freight. speeding south
ward through the San Joaquin
Valley. Every one of the long
line of freight cars was dotted
with scraggly, addressed human
forms. There must have been 200
Of them. My companion said:
"Th0se birds aren't taking
any chances. They're doing
some concentratin' themselves,
and its on L. A., where they're
sure of a little warm air in
the winter time"
HOrdes Pouring In
"Those birds" were but an
infinitely small proportion of the
hordes of men and boys-and
even, in some cases, women and
chlidren-that for weeks have
been pouring into this part of the
country. ...
All these nomads of the de-
preston have, at the moment,
but one thing in mind-the assur-
ance of flight from the cold. They
have no assurance of food or
lodging or work. For weeks,
months and sometimes for two or
three years, they nave been NOV
ing from city to city, section to
section, earning or begging or
stealing a living. There has been,
for them, no new deal" as yet
and the report of Federal camps
Is the first semblance of it.
There are, of course, two sides
to the question. While travelling
more respectfully in this part of
the country 1 encountered indi-
viduals who look down upon the
wanderers as a menace and a
nuisance, hardly better than
criminals.
Moct! Are Not Tramps
But to venture on the high
ways or into the freight yards, or
camp for a night in the "jun-
gles," is to discover that most of
these men and boys are not
trampS.
I encountered many white
collar men out Of jobs. The
young man who sat next to me
in the box car had been a clerk
in an office in Boston. He lost
the job a year ago. Couldn't get
another. He went from place to
place until he realized he was
becoming a bum. He was deS-
perate and bitter as he took the
paper from me and crumpled it
In his hands. He said:
"GOOd God, I don't want any
concentration camp any more
than I want to ride the rods
like this, day after day, or beg
for food, or have to sleep night
after night in the open, when
there isn't room in the Saliva
ton Army or Red Cross. All 1
want is a Job"

account for a great number Of

In the first quarter of the pres

692 communications of all kinds,
as compared with 278,736 last

to work five hours overtime each
week, and most of them, it is said,
are working even more hours.
The Commission announced
during the quarter 2,733 examina-
tions, as compared with sos in
the same period last year. Three
causes given for the increase are
the greater number of Presiden-

been handed down six months
after the granting of an inter-

application of the plaintiff.
In many cases plaintiffs have
neglected to take such action and
the cases have remained open on

emily as one can who has lived
through them. He promises square
deal to the masses because he has
always considered himself as one of
them.
Mr.. Carter has been always active
in church work and is thought well
of by the clergy as is evidenced by
an invitation to address large
group of children at Hillman City
Christian Church.

If you don't know who he is you

Allen, candidate for one year term,
City Council. "Many candidates are
being supported and ballyhcod by
special interest groups or rodical
elements of which most of us are
keenly aware,' Mr.. Allen continued.
Economy in the city government
means as does economy in our ma
tional and state government, the
ability to say NO. The chief trouble
with our legislative bodies is their
incapacity to use the small two
letter word at the right moment
when so doing would prevent the
already heavily burdened toxpayer
from assuming a further burden"
Mr.. Allen has been in the build
ing business for more than decade
in Seattle and wants an opportunity
to use his business accumen in the
city governing body.
