a 1ormer Supreme Court justice called
Tom Girdler, Republic board chair
man, and John L. Lewis, c. I. O. chief
tain, two Of kind"
Says Neither Fitted.
John H. Clarke of San Diego, Calf,
the former justice. wrote H. G. Dali
ton, chairman of the Youngstown
Sheet & Tube Co., that neither Mr..
Girdler nor MI Lewis was fitted to
a wise exercise of the power which a
strange turn of the wheel Of fortune
had given them"
Mr.. Clarke, stockholder in the
youngstown company, had written to
criticize the corporation for its refusal
to sign contract with the c. I. O.
He asserted that the question at is
sue In the strike seems to narrow
down to a question of personal pride
or aversion on the part of the parties
concerned to sit down at table and
talk the subject out as equals ."
In reply, Mr. Dalton said the c. I. O.
had demanded that pay, hour and en-
ployment schedules arranged by the
company be first submitted to the
union for signature before being posted
in company plants.
The purpose of the c. I. o. in this
demand has been frankly avowed by
us representatives." the steel official
asserted. They desire recognition by
the company which will enable them to
persuade our employees to submit them
selves to its disciplinary fines. Our
Judgment is that our employees do not
desire to be thus controlled and obliged
to continue to contribute to the c. I. o.
whether they approve Of it and find
it useful or not
Yesterday the committee was told
that William B. Gillies, vice president
OF Youngstown Sheet e. Tube, as
Sembled the ministers of Youngstown
at dinner one evening back in 1886,
delivered a fiery speech against the
G. I. o. and practically commanded"
them to keep their church members

Senator Declared Typical
Of Group Warning on
Roosevelt Program.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FREDERICK, Md, July 30-The
Tydings-Lewis fight for the Demo-
cratic senatorial nomination went into
another round today, with Representa-
tive Lewis asserting Senator Tydings
represents "a small group Of Liberty
Leaguers who are out to frustrate Mr.
Roosevelt and hamstring his program :"
Mr.. Lewis launched his attack on
the Senator at rally here in an ad-
dress criticizing Mr.. Tydings' conten-
ton that he represents the Maryland
view"
Instead OF the Maryland view, Mr..
Lewis said. Senator Tydings repre-
sents Tory Republicans
Mr.. Lewis also said Senator Tydings
had voted against farm subsidies. but
for subsidy OF $3.50, 900 for the Bal
timore Mail Line.
I'm other words" he commented,
"a subsidy to big business firm con-
trolled by the giant International Mer-
camille Marine is an excellent thing
for the country, whereas a subsidy
averaging about $40 each to Maryland
farmers is iniquitious. dangerous and
is not the Maryland view"
On the Republican side, Leo Vein
berg. Frederick attorney and candi-
date for the senatorial nomination,
turned campaign fire on his two pri-
mary opponents. demanding that one
resign his judgeship and twitting the
other in Shakespearean style for ig-
noring Weinberg's candidacy.
Judge Oscar Lesser, backed by the
administration in the Senate fight,
was again called upon by Mr.. Vein
berg to resign his supreme bench post,
on grounds 1T is part of the tradi-
ton of the bench that judges
should not participate in politics. -
A similar request by Mr.. Wein-
berg several days ago drew no re-
sponse from the jurist.
In a letter to Galen L. TAFT, his
other opponent, Mr. Weinberg used
Shakespearean quotations, which have
marked the Republican Senate race.
and asked: ''Dost thou feel thy i'm
portance to be so supreme as to look
upon me as q mere ant crawling in
the dust?"

Remarking that the committee ought
to have the reports for publicity pur-
poses" Sen. Sheppard said:
I'VE want to give them to the States
SO the people can be acquainted with
the expenditures of funds by the
candidates before they vote"
Senator Sheppard said he would
refer to the full committee at a
meeting Tuesday a complaint from
John r. Neal, Tennessee senatorial
candidate that efforts were being
made to throttle free speech
Senator McAdoo, Democrat, Of
California telegraphed the committee
that charge that Federal ofice-
holders were being forced to con-
tribute to his campaign fund came
from desperate men"
McAdoo Welcomes Probe.
James w. Mellen, on Of Senator
McAdoo's opponents, asked the COM
mittee several days ago to investigate
the matter. Senator Sheppard said
the committee had sent two investi-
gators to the western State.
Senator McAdoo, saying he pre-
ferred defeat without such contri-
buttons to victory with them" sug-
gested that the committee inquire

Head of Virginia U. Alumni
Holds NeWComb Incident
UnCaIIed For.
By the Associated Press.

b! the Associated Press.
Charles R. Fenwick, president Of the
University of Virginia Alumni Asso-
citation, in a statement today, said
Secretary Ickes' recent criticism OF
President John Lloyd Newcomb was
"a vicious, uncalled-for attack upon
the president Of great university by
q cabinet officer"
Mr.. Ickes, in commenting on let
ter by President Newcomb expressing
appreciation for Representative How
ard Smiths effectiveness" in certain
requests for P w. A. funds, charged
that the Representative was trying
to muscle in on the popularity" of the
university. Mr.. Ickes said the New
comb letter showed an apparent de-
sire on the part of the university head
to give Smith credit to which he
wasn't entitled"
The statement by Mr.. Fenwick fol-
lows:
FIRST by way of an anonymous bull
letin giving the impression that it was
from the Alumni Association of the
University of Virginia, and then
through a letter from M. T. C. Rosen-
berger styling himself president of the
Student-Dodd- for Congress Club. the
University of Virginia was deliberately
dragged into a political campaign
without cause or reason. Statements
were made that reflected on Judge
Smith in his attitude and relations to
the university.
president John Lloyd Newcomb, out
OF a sense Of fair play, made a reply
repudiating these statements insofar
as they related to the university.
Under th/se circumstances, I think
the people of Virginia elsewhere will
resent vicious u>>alled-for attack
upon the President of a great univer-
sity by a cabinet officer"

so far as you know Committee
chairman La Toilette, Progressive of

Mr.. White said he thought some of

I'VE didn't see," Mr.. White said
how we were going to have a contract
that would not lead US into more trou-

they did.
We felt, very frankly that the mo-
