Dies Told Reds
Run Convention

Q.N.S.) A former organizer for
the Communist party. John T.
Pace of Detroit today declared be-
fore the Dies committee mvesti-
eating un-American activities that
Communists have just about got
control of the CLIO convention now
meeting in Pittsburgh.
Testifying as an authority on
Communist tactics, Page asserted
that a change in the union policy
of the central committee Of the
Communist party of the United
States resulted indirectly in the
formation of the CIO.
This occurred in 1884 when the
party ordered it's dual unions dis
solved and the Communists began
to infiltrate into the American
Federation of Labor, the witness
said.
Pace credited those revolution
aries gaining entrance into the
AFL with forming the organiZa-
ton that John L. Lewis was later
to lead out of the federation un-
der the name of CLIO.

DISSENSION 0 n.
PER CAPITA TAX.
Convention Approves
Clio Constitution
BY EDWARDS B. LoCKETT

By EDWARDS B. LOCKETT
PITTSBURGH, Nov. is U.N.S).
With cheers, handclapping and
whistling, the 476 delegates at
tending the first convention of
the CLIO today adopted a perma-
nent constitution, changing the
name of their organization and
setting up procedural machinery
similar to that of the American
Federation of Labor.
The vote on the new constitution
was unanimous, but came only
after CLIO chairman John L. Lewis
quelled minority vote with stern
admonitions against internal dis
Sension. A move of local unions
to reduce the size of the per capita
tax imposed upon them also was
defeated.
LAYS DOWN LAW
Completely wiping out a mild
minority demand for changes in
the new constitution, Lewis care
fully explained the rules of pro
cedure to delegates today and
bluntly announced:
1T will profit no man to rail
against the convention rules.
1T is not right and we do not
intend to let man merely with
an idea come here and destroy
the work of the committee.
Il hope there Will be no
further misunderstanding on
this subject"
Lewis short talk speeded up
reading of the constitution. and
delegates quickly approved each
section as it was read.
Broadly speaking, the constitu-
ton sets up an organization SINH
lar to the American Federation Of
Labor, but considerably more
power is handed to the execu-
tive officers Of the CLIO than the
A. F. Of L. leadership controls.
In the first place, the CLIO con-
stitution provides for per capita
taxes of 5 cents per member per.
month-five times the normal
tax imposed on the A. F. of L.
membership.
NO AUTONOMY FOR UNIONS
Furthermore, the CLIO consti-
tuition gives to each member Of
the executive board-empowered
to rule CLIO affairs between an
nual conventions - voting power
based ON the membership Of each
union.
Under this arrangement. Lewis
Textile Workers Organizing Com
mittee Chairman Sidney Hillman
and Steel Workers Organizing
Committee Chairman Phillip
Murray control nearly 10000 Of
the total of 3,914,612 votes repre-
Sented in the executive board.
The CLIO conStitution-drafted
by CLIO Counsel Lee FRESHMAN,
does not extend to the individual
CLIO unions any autonomy, either
as the AFL constitution extends
to its union.
MEET TWICE A YEAR
Executive board meetings only
twice a year are provided in the
constitution, compared with an
A, F, of L. organization charter
compelling quarterly meetings.
Adoption of the constitution
completes the important business!
of the first CIO convention and
will leave only election Of officers
to complete formation of a labor
faction similar to the American
Federation.
There is only one fundamental
difference between the two organ
izations, but this is so deeply
seated that it has made every eff
fort toward reunion futile. The
Lewis unions were formed on the
theory of one big union for each
big industry-industrial unionism
while the A. F. of L. is organ
lied by crafts.

Attorney McGrath said he had been informed that in a statement to the court Attorney Cassidy had declared that he CMcGrath) could have avoided the trouble that led to McCann's arrest.
 Judge MascolO Refused
 Judge Mascolo refused to dis qualify himself and ordered that the hearing proceed. Attorney McGrath then entered plea of non vult con- tendere, signifying his refusal to en- ter any plea at all for his client.
 The Dacey boy testified that on the day Sheriff McCann went to the Libby store to serve a writ, 8 group of boys gathered at the door. Libby, he said, pushed them away and in the process kicked Fibre.
 Case Interrupted
 While the boy was being crossed examined, Judge Mascolo interrupt ed to state that he did not believe Libby would have been arrested had not McCann been first arrested. He ordered that the charges against Libby be nolled.
 McCann has since been dismissed as a deputy sheriff. Libby com- plained that when the sheriff came to serve writ he threatened him with 8 gun.

A survey made by the Connecti- cut Chamber of Commerce reveals that waterbury factories and stores will remain open Armistice day, the l1th. Offlces, says the survey, are "t1ndecided", but local banks will be closed.
 Local World War veterans had been seeking to have Armistice day generally observed as 3 holiday in the city. They were hopeful that stores, factories and business offices would close, since Arnlistice day this year marks the 2Oth anniversary of the close of the World War.
 Banks all over the state will be closed for the holiday. Stores and factories in most cities will be open, while offices are about evenly divid- ed as to closing or remaining open.

 and found that a lamp-type cord was being run the approximate 50 feet from the house to the barn. The inspector said that he would not approve turning on of current necessary to operation of the two voting machines now in the barn unless the work of wiring conformed to ordinance and was done by a licensed contractor.
 Barn Is Fire Hazard
 At the same time, Fire Marshal Den Lahey, after inspection of the premises, said that the barn con- Stituted a fire hazard and that he would prohibit smoking there elec- tion day; also, that the lanterns hung in the quarters of '"The Ritz Club" the meeting place of neigh borhood boys where now the voters of the section will cast their bal lots next Tuesday, might not be lighted during the hours of voting.
 Inspector O'Rourke ordered the temporary wiring removed and MT. Smethurst now is conforming to requirements in having the barn wired by an approved contractor. :,
 Controversy Develops
 Considerable controversy developed at the aldermanic meeting when the Republican majority approved the renting of certain polling places, eliminating O'Donnell's hall, a vot- ing landmark. At that time the question of use of the barn was raised and the Republican leaders declared that the barn was heated and equipped with lights. So far as the heating is concerned, inspec- tion of the barn showed an old- type stove which the fire marshal is expected to list under his re- strictions on election day, inasmuch as he has cited the fire hazard but would not take issue with the alder men in their selection of the site.
 Most In Public Buildings
 Most of the polling places, how ever, are in public buildings, schools and fire houses, the list submitted by Griffenhagen & Associates and approved by the finance and alder manic boards. In this connection, it was cited that the Overlook Drug company stores situation on elec- tion day would be not very diff ferent from that at fire house where the firemen would be fre- quenting the polls although an or. dinance forbids hangers-on within 8 75-foot space of the polls.

 twill Seabiscuit make 8 run for. it from the start, or lay off the pace and make his bid in the back stretch?"
 Has the Biscuit enough early foot to keep the Admiral from rum ing away from him?"
 "What about the jockeys? Is Charley Kurtsinger, who'll be up on War Admiral, as good as Georgie Woolf, Seabiscuit's bay?"
 There were hundreds of answers. Some thought that War Admiral, winner of IS of his 9 races, was shoo-in. Almost as many be- lieved that Seabiscuit, veteran of 83 trips to the post, would break the Admiral's heart by staying with him to open up lead.
 Will be Great Race
 The truth is, there was no know ing what would happen. The only sure thing was that it will be a great race between two solid, game horses. Both have trained without mishap. War Admiral was full of fire in his final gallop yesterday, and Seabiscuit worked brisk half mile as though he could pick up an office safe and carry 1t to track record. The Biscuit will an- swer the bugle's call in his best shape of 8 year or more, and the Admiral, on the word of George Conway who trains him, will have no excuses if beaten.
 The track Is perfect. The agree ment between Charlie Howard and Samuel Riddle, owners of Seabis- cult and War Admiral, respectively, called for fast track. It will be that and more. Bathed by the warm sun and swept by gentle winds, the ancient strip is without a flaw. and it is an even money bet that one or the other of the rivals will crack the mile and three-sixteenths record of 1:56 4-5 established by Pompoon early this year. Each will carry 120 pounds today-feathers for them, because they are accustomed to 130 pounds or more, the weight necessary to make race of it with inferior borses.
 War Admiral will run the same race he ran on his first appear ance as a two year old. With the ring of the bell Git will be walk up start today, incidentally Kurt singer will give the Admiral his head and let him fly. Hot off the mark, the Admiral likes to wing it right quick and pound into the turn with a substantial lead.
 No one Gnows what Seabiscuit will do. That is, no one save his stable. The chances are, however, that he will try to match strides with his rival from the start, and see how the mighty mite" reacts when he is unable to put daylight between himself and challenger. Seabis- cult normally is slow starter, re- serving his move for the late stages of the race. But hanging back Is considered fatal in a two-horse race.
 Early foot being equal, the race will boil down to stamina and cour- age, with the gamest animal win- ming: No coward will win today, that's sure.
