Lewis and Others Are
Summoned for Trial

IMMEDIATE splitting of the
l. American Federation of Labor
into two rival groups was averted
by the action of the Federation's
executive council in voting to bring
to trial on August 3, the union
leaders led by John L. Lewis on
charges of dual unionism." 1t
had been reported earlier that the
council had voted to suspend the
II unions grouped as the Commit
tee for Industrial Unionization.
The councils action was looked
upon as a peace move in the crisis
that threatens open warfare in the
labor movement. 1t was precipi-
tated by the drive to organize $780,
coo workers in the steel industry
into one big industrial union by
John l.. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers and his fol-
lowers.
The charges against the Lewis
group include "competition as
rival organization with the A. F.
CT L.; fomenting an insurrection
within the Federation; violation of
contracts they have entered into
with the Federation when granted
their charters.

terly denounced the present admin
istration and President Roosevelt
and called upon the delegates to
follow DR.. Townsend in endorsing
the candidacy of William Lemke
for the presidency on the Union
ticket.
Lemke himself appeared before
the convention before it adjourned
and made a speech in which he
pledged himself to ''stand four
square behind the old age pension
movement and denounced the
present administration as nation
al lunacy." The delegates applaud
ed the first statement, but other
wise were rather apathetic toward
the Union party leader. Doctor
Townsend made no plea for him but
merely urged his followers to con-
centrate on the election of senators
and congressman.
Father Coughlin's attack on
President Roosevelt drew fire from
various sources. Bishop Michael
Gallagher of Detroit, as he sailed
for a visit to the Vatican, admit
ted he had "chided" the priest for
using Language that was little
too strong but denied he had dis
ciplined him or that he would re-
port on the affair to the Vatican.
ToWnsendite candidates who
must run on the Democratic ticket
planned a pro-Roosevelt demon
stration. Pro-Roosevelt delegations
representing II states signed res
olution urging that no merger or
fusion" with third party be made.
A tactical victory was won by the
New Deal forces in the election of
Willis Mahoney, Townsendite Dem
ocratic candidate for senator from
Oregon, as chairman of the resolu-
tions committee.

Marking Troops Take
Control of Canton

D EVOLT Of the Cantonese
IN against the Marking govern
ment has collapsed and latest re-
ports say government troops have
entered Canton and taken over
maintenance of peace and order.
There was no opposition and the
city was quiet.
Chen Chi-tang, the Cantc-. war
lord, deserted his followers and fled
to Hongkong on gunboat. There
was a scramble to find Chen's al
legged silver hoard, said to amount
to many million dollars, but much
of it is believed to be deposited in
foreign banks.
The Marking government gains
possession of KWantung pr vince's
fleet of more than 300 fighting
planes, and also of extensive arm
aments. These latter include guam
titles of heavy artillery, field ar
tillery and machine guns, nearly
half a million rifles, numbers of
anti-aircraft guns, tanks, the south
vests navy, two arsenals and one
airplane factory.

G., o. z.

DERHAPS you never heard of a
l. young printer named T. B
Dowden, but he was the man who
made G. o. P. a synonym for the
Republican party.
In 1884, the year that the Republi-
cans finally nominated James G..
Blaine for the Presidency, young
Dowden applied for work at the
Cincinnati Gazette and got it.
About 2:3O o'clock one morning
just before the Gazette went to
press, Dowden took from the
copy hook a piece of copy marked
Must go in ten lines" He soon
found himself in difficulty.
My copy ends with Grand Old
Party and l have two words left
over after I've set the ten lines, I"
he told the foreman of the shop,
What shall l do?"
Throw 'em away and use your
intelligence!" exclaimed the fore
man impatiently. mo, wait! Cut
'em short get 'em in some
way! Abbreviate 'em."
So DoWden went back to his case
and the next morning the Gazette
came out with this sentence on
the front page: THE Hon. James
c.. Blaine will address the meeting
on Achievements of the COP"
At the meeting that night the
Republican candidate was conclud-
ing a two-hour speech when voice
foated down from the gallery:
why don't you tell us something
about COP and what it did?"
why, my friend" retorted
Blaine, 1--WE been talking about

CO and the CanarieS and were soon
in control there. Then Franco, who
is only forty-three years old but
dynamic character, crossed over to
Algeciras, followed by the Foreign
Legion and lot of Moors, Moroc-
cans and black African troops. Aft
er a sharp battle at La Linea, close
to Gibraltar, these contingents be-
gan a march northward toward Sc
vile and Cadiz. There was severe
fighting in San Sebastian, where
the American embassy is located
in summer, and in other border
towns. Malaga was reported to be
in flames.
Commanders of the rebels assert
ed their aim was to save the re-
public" to keep order and to de-
stroy the Marxists. In Barcelona
their attack was directed especially
against Luis Companys, president
of the Catalonian parliament, who
was said to be besieged in his Of
fees.
Jose Maria Gil Robles, leader
of the Catholic c. E. D. A. Con
federation of Autonomous Right
Parties) fled to Biarritz, France.
An aviator who escaped the rebels
in Morocco declared Gil Robles had
instigated the revolt.
Premier Santiago Casares Qui-
roga resigned in favor of Diego
Martinez-Barrio, speaker of parlia-
ment, but the latter held the office
only few hours. Then Jose Giral,
former minister of marine, formed
a cabinet with General Pozas, who
has the support of both the power
full Civil Guard and Republican ele-
ments of the army, as minister of
war.
The rebels sent word to the gov
ernment that unless it capitulated
they would bomb Madrid from
planes.

light signatories to the Lau-
~ same postwar treaty have
granted to Turkey the right to re-
militarize the Dardanelles, and
they, with Turkey, have signed a
convention covering the matter.
Only Japan made slight reServa-
tions because it is no longer a
member of the League of Nations.
The convention grants complete
liberty to merchant marine pas
sage through the straits in peace
time and wartime, even with Tur-
key at war, provided the CONNER
ciaI vessels do not assist the fight
ing powers.
The Russian navy is granted COM
plete freedom in peacetime to leave
and enter the Black sea through
the straits, but nations outside will
be subjected to limitations on pas
sage of fighting ships through the
channel.
During wartime belligerents will
be prohibited from using the straits
unless acting for the league or un-
der the obligations Of a regional

Nazi DEGREES in Danzig
Crush Opposition

NluSlI OPPOoAlIOll
T Unless the protests of Poland
~ are effective, all opposition to
Nazi power in the Free City of
Danzig is due to be crushed. DR..
Arthur Karl Greiser, president of
the Danzig senate, which is con-
trolled by Nazis, has issued ad-
ministrative DEGREES ordering:
l. Dissolution of any organization
whose members, with knowledge of
its executive board, spreads news
'endangering the state interest"
2. Prohibition of review by the
courts of police measures of a po-
litical nature, including those
aimed at the right of assembly,
the press, and free speech.
3. Prohibition of Jewish ritual
slaughtering for food purposes.
4. Imposition of three month pro-
tective custody on persons declared
to be 'endangering the public
peace"
Thus the city's constitution is
virtually set aside, and the Poles
especially, having extensive eco-
nomic interests there, are indig-
nant. The League of Nations,
which holds a protectorate over
Danzig, may be called on to act
in the matter. OF course there is
talk of Poland resorting to arms,
but this is not likely at present.

Olympic Torch Started
to Berlin Games

IN OLYMPIA, Greece, scene of
l. the first Olympic games, torch
was lighted by the rays of the sun
and a Greek runner seized it and
started it on a 12-day relay to the
sports field in Berlin where the
Olympic flame is to be lighted on
August /. Five thousand distin-
guiShed persons were selected to
carry the torch, these including
King Boris of Bulgaria, King Pc
ter Of Jugoslavia, and a long list
of princes, statesmen and sports
men. On the last leg it was to
be borne by S. Loues of Greece,
winner of the marathon in the
games of 1896. A hundred thou
send Hitler youths will accompany
Loues in a triumphal parade to
the stadium.
Five thousand torches to carry
the flame were donated by the
Krupp works, so each OF the bear
ers will retain one as a souvenir.

In London, for instance, Lord
Rothermere's newspaper tells you
that Mr.. Eden, British foreign Sec
retary, has gone to "a secret des-
tination" in the country for a
weeks rest.
English statesmen always go to
"a secret destination" for reasons
unknown to Mr.. James Farley, who
relaxes at the ringside, or Presi-
dent Roosevelt, who rests fishing,
on a battleship, with fifty report
ers on another ship, nearby.
You wonder that man as young
as Eden should need a rest. Glad
stone. at nearly twice his age, was
talking in the Commons at four in
the morning-but Gladstones are
few, Tim Healys also.
Rothermere' writer thinks Eden
is all tired out after his Geneva
speech, telling just why England
lifted the Italian sanctions. 1t was
he who made a speech recently,
just as earnest and much louder,
telling why those sanctions must
NEVER be lifted. That was turning
a big somersault. The English know
how to do that, and you are sup
posed to laugh.
