G.O.P.LAbORPLAN
TO Be ASSA|LED.
Non-Partisan League Plans
to Campaign in Landon's
Stronghold.

Labor's Nom Partisan League, un-
impressed with Gov. ALI M. Landon's
Interpretation of the Republican
platforms labor plank, moved today
to invade the Republican candidates
stronghold, the Midwest farm terri
tory.
Maj. George L. Berry, league head.
announced at his press conference
yesterday that he was leaving for
Chicago with group of farm leaders
to make contacts with farm organiza-
tions in the Midwest. What organiza-
tions the leaders represented he de-
clined to state.
No Tie Up Planned.
Berry explained, however, that the
league would make no attempt to tie
up politically with the Farmer-Labor
Party in Minnesota or other sections,
but was merely attempting to enlist
farm support for his organizations
campaign to re-elect President Roose-
welt.
In a statement commenting on Gov.
Landon's letter to Norman Thomas,
Socialist candidate, Berry stressed
that no mention was made of collec-
tive bargaining, and that Landon's
Interpretation meant there must be
IAN absolutely clear road for the
formation of company unions, which
are owned, financed and controlled
by the employers"
Opinion Of Lewis.
John L. Lewis, head of the United
Mine Workers and one Of the organiz-
ers Of the league, added in a state
ment that the Kansas Governors
labor policy would make every strike
illegal and every picket law-breaker."
Landon comedies, Lewis pointed out,
the right of labor ito send in an or
ganizer," but still thinks the unor-
ganized should have complete free
dom from interference from any one
whatsoever" even a fellow employe.
"Of course, this policy" Lewis con-
tinued "is taken from repeated dec
larations of the National Manufacture
ers Association and is designed to
isolate workmen from the trade union
movement, while employers. under
their cooperative privileges. may ag-
grandize their economic power over
the labor market"

Mcneil Loses Appeal,
Must Go to Jai

Benedict M. Mcneil, former as
sistant cashier of the defunct Park
Savings Bank, must serve from
eight months to four years in
prison for conspiring to steal $780,
600 of the banks funds, the Court
of Appeals ruled today in affirm
ing McNeil's conviction in the
United States District Court.
Mcneil was indicted in July,
1893, nearly four years after he
had resigned his position with the
bank which crashed into a receiv-
ership shortly after the suicide on
March IA, 1888, of Robert S. Stun,
it's executive vice president, who
had embezzled nearly two million
dollars Of the working capital.
Indicted with Mcneil was Stun
and McNeil'S father, Alexander
Mcneil, who died before the case
was called for trial.
One of the counts accused Nc
Neil, Stun and the elder Mcneil
of conSpiring to commit larceny
The Washington times., 1936-07-13

of $4,000 and the other count ao-
cused them of conspiring to com.
NIT embezzlement of the same
amount. Mcneil was convicted on
both counts and was given con-
secutive sentences of from four
months to two years imprisonment
on each count.
Denying McNeirs appeal, the
higher court today found the for
mer banker had been given fair
trial and that the jury had no
improper evidence before it when
McNeils guilt was determined.
Although Mcneil was convicted
on November Is, 1885, and sen.
fenced within a few weeks, he
has lost very little against his
prison time through his appeal.
Ordinarily a convict imprisoned is
not given credit for prison time
during the tendency of an appeal,
but Mcneil came into court last
April and elected to begin serving
his sentence regardless of the out
come of his appeal.
