LEWIS CONSIDERS
TEXTILE CAMPAIGN
Future Course of c. |. o. to
Be Mapped at ParIey
Tuesday.
Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated freSS.
The future course OF John L. Lewis
movement for organizing mass-pro-
duction workers hinged today on .
meeting next Tuesday of the Commit
tee for Industrial Organization.
Lewis said he would lay before his
associates projects for substantial
organizing campaigns" in several large
industries.
The committee already has won
agreements for its unions in the steel,
automobile and mining industries.
Lewis did not name the industries
whose employees he hopes to organize.
but said the committee would consider
a drive to bring the 1,250.000 textile
employees into the United Textile
Workers Of America, c. I. O.
affiliate.
Organizers for the Lewis group now
are seeking recruits in the oil industry.
Refusal of Lewis rival, William
Green, to support the reconstruction
of Carnegie Illinois Steel Corps en-
ploye representation plan left the
husky c. I. 0. chief still foremost in
that sector.
Although hope Of reconciling the
Lewis and Green factions apparently
has been abandoned for the time, rep
resentatives of both groups will attend
the convention here Monday of
Labor's Non-Partisan League.
Headed by a stanch Roosevelt sup
porter, Maj. George L. Berry, the
league will discuss the Presidents s
court reorganization program.
1t hopes to unite labor support for
the Presidents proposal, which it has
indorsed. The Lewis-Green battle
will not come before it.

Geisha Girls End
8-Day Sit-Do,Un as
Guild Is AIIOlUed
Gala Welcome Planned
in Osaka by "Tired
Business Men,"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
OSAKA, Japan, March s.-Three
hundred gaily-clad geisha-girl enter
tainers in Osaka's bright-lighted cafes
ended their eight-day sit-down
strike today with recognition Of their
right to form a geisha guild.
The striking girls, who spent more
than a week of self-immolation IN a
Buddhist mountain temple. accepted a
compromise agreement which police
had labored to effect throughout the
night.
Their principal demand, guild OF
their own organization, was granted
by harassed Osaka employers.
Osaka's gay amusement quarter i'm
mediately plunged into plans for
gala welcome tonight when the VIC
torious maidens resume their singing,
dancing and entertaining for the
tired business men" of industrial
Osaka.
kilograms of congratulations and
praise poured in on the girls from al
parts of the empire.
The geisha held a long conference
in front of the altar of Buddha before
sending their acceptance of the COM
promise terms to the Osaka police.
The girls agreed to withdraw imme-
diately from the temple where sympa-
thetic priests have sheltered them.
The strike leaders promised to apollo
gize for their action and the employ.
ers of geisha agreed to recognize ar
autonomous geisha guild.
The only note of sadness was the
eternal absence of one of the geishs
band-22-year-old Fukuko Miyamotc
who took her own life yesterday
rather than participate in a nude
ceremonial of publication.

COURT ISSUE LAID
TOHUMPHREYCASE
Dr.. E. A. Walsh Denies New
Deal Law InvaIidation
Started Fight.

The conflict between the CHIEF
Executive and the judiciary was
ascribed more to the Humphrey case
than to the invalidation of New Deal
laws by DR.. Edmund A. Walsh, S. j,
Of Georgetown University. who last
night opened a lecture course at
Memorial Continental Hall.
In the case cited, the Supreme
Court held that President Roosevelt
had exceeded his rights in ousting the
late William E. Humphreys from the
Federal Trade Commission.
An overflow crowd heard the initial
lecture of a series of eight on The
Constitution and the Supreme Court, !"
in which the speaker declared the
issue has reached "a danger point be-
yond which lies dark and unpre-
dictable future"
In my opinion" DR.. Walsh said.
"the present conflict was not so much
precipitated by the N. R. A. decision,
nor by the A. A. A. reversal, Or in
valuation of the Guffey coal act, as
by an incident that, curiously enough,
seems to have been lost and submerged
in the floodtide of more spectacular
Developments AS one removed from
purely party interests, or political ad-
vocacy, believe future historians will
put their finger on the summary re-
moval without legal cause of member
of the Federal Trade Commission
named Mr. Humphrey as the true be-
ginning of the present conflict between
the Chief Executive and the supreme
Judiciary I recommend careful read
ing of the recorded facts in that i'm
portant case to all who seek an inte-
grated knowledge of the present con-
Stitutional impaSse. 1 suggest that
there was the cloud, no bigger than a
mans hand on the horizon which has
now assumed the WhirlWind propOr-
tions of storm over the Constitution.
I am not impugning the motives nor
defending the policies of either party
TO this high debate. Leave that to the
camp followers. I am merely pointing
to an antecedent cause, as physician
diagnoses a condition and indicates a
specific lesion that had apparently
been overlooked. And, as this course
develops, We shall see that similar
acrimonious controversies between the
Chief Executive and the judiciary oc-
Cured before, from Jefferson and
jackson to Lincoln and Theodore
Roosevelt"
He said last night he concurred
sunreservedly" with the President on
the point that the Nation faces a
crisis fundamentally more grave than
when he took office March 4. 1888.
At that time, DR.. Walsh pointed out,
the economic structure that supports
the inner form of democracy, as the
body does the SOUL" had collapsed.
But now, after four years" he
added, 1T is the spirit, the intangible
core of democracy, the very soul of
the Nation that is shaken in its inner
most citadel as public challenge is
hurled at the apple of freedoms eye

LEHMAN PRESSES
CH|LDLAB0RF FIGHT
Governor Appeals to Public
to Support Battle for
Ratification.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y, March 6.-Gov.
Herbert H. Lehman carried his ngnt
for New York State ratification Of the
Federal child labor amendment di-
rectly to the people last night with an
assertion that this Is the only practi-
cal way to end exploitation Of chill
dren in industry throughout America"
1.-THE ratification Of the child-labor
amendment Is completely non.
partisan question" he said. There Is
no issue involved in this matter save
that Of child labor, and make my ap-
peal for ratification solely on that
issue"
The Governors appeal came as
members Of the State Assembly OF Is
Republicans and IS Democrats pre-
pared to vote Tuesday on the long
pending proposal. The Democratic
controlled Senate ratified four weeks
ago by party-split vote Of SO to IL.
Discusses Objections.
The Governor took up one by one
the objections voiced by opponents Of
ratification, insisting the amendment
"is simply grant of power by the
States to the Congress just as were
the other grants of power. To
mistrust Congress is to indict democ-
racy. II we cannot trust the men we
ourselves send to Congress as our
Representatives, then democracy is a
sham"
Taking up the claim that the
amendment would interfere with the
home and with parental authority,
the Governor asserted:
Just what this means, I do not
know. Some, including several leading
newspapers. have sought to distort the
intent of the amendment by tagging
it with a misleading label. They call
it a youth control amendment 1t is
in no sense a youth control program.
A fairer description would be youth
protection
Will Not Regiment Youth.
The amendment will no more con-
| troll or regiment youth than do any OF
the hundreds of measures which have
been passed in this State for the pro-
| lection Of our boys and girls"
He contended there is no lessening
of parental authority in the amend
| ment.
1T is just impossible for me to see
how the Congress is given power to
interfere with or dictate the education
and schooling of children" he said.
"' If thought that the amend
ment could possibly be construed as
grant Of power over education or
would limit freedom of secular or re-
ligious education. would oppose it as
strongly as any person in the State
I am certain that it does not do So >

of parties was the first open comment
of that kind. There was little support,
however, from other opponents of the
President.
Senator Copeland said he had heard
the possibility discussed but believed
it would be pretty hard for the old
timers to get out of either party"
Burke said that he did not believe
the court reorganization itself would
bring the realignment, but that enact
ment of the Presidents bill would be
followed by enactment of measures
that would force a new alignment"
"The bars would be down COM
pletely," Burke said.
THE most bitter opposition to the
program" Burke said, comes from
people who wholeheartedly supported
the President in the last campaign" ."

State expenditures for relief have

During that period the Federal Gov

TO the States the burden of direct

This was attributed by w. P. A.

The captain took his cigar out of his mouth,
remembering a tall, blond, boyish young man
with ice-blue eyes. I'D forgotten" he said.
The chap who dropped in after dinner. So
that's the fellow on Soledad?"
''Yes, SIR
''And the woman?"
Il don't know, sir. He was not married

But you want me to risk the lives of a

it doesn't matter. I'm thinking of Lincoln.
Pain isn't anything. But for the people who

ward the deck behind him. Above his shoul-
