Nelson G. Kraschel tonight closed the
National Labor Relations Board hear

In an order to Maj Gen. Mathew A.

Guard troops on duty in the strike
zone, the Governor directed that the
National Labor Relations Board hear
ing be closed Immediately for an in
definite period.
The hearing into charges of 'un-

the company by the Maytag c. I. o.
union, was in recess over the week

The order was worded in way
which prevents the hearing from

Settlement Held Vital.
Enlarging on his comment about
the effect of the N. l.. r. B. hearings,
the Governor said:
THE sole purpose of establishing
martial law in the community was
to prevent any activity which would
tend to destroy the peace"
The Governor said that the Labor
Board hearings had become show"
and a spectacle" that they were
dealing with matters which already
have been fully aired, and that they
might be delaying a settlement of the
dispute.
The hearings have not been con-
ducive to peace in the community"
he said. They have served to stir
up several hundred people. Moreover
they have been occupying the atten-
ton of the opposing parties. 1t is
vital that the opposing parties-the
company and the union-center their
attention on the settlement of their
differences"

'FRANK|NG Of TALK

Smith Threatens Action
Against Coffee in Dispute
Over Mail.
Nv JAMES F. CHINN.

Representative Howard W. Smith
charged last night that 10000 copies
OF political speech by William E.
Dodd. jr., his opponent in Tuesdays
Democratic primary in the eighth
Virginia district, had been circu-
lated through the mails free under
the franking privilege of Representa-
tive Coffee, Democrat. of Washington.
Copies Of the speech, according to
Mr.. Smith, were a reprint from the
Congressional Record of June last
space that had been reserved in the
Record for Mr. Coffee to insert q
speech by William E. Dodd, former
Ambassador to Germany, and not one
by his son.
The charges were contained in q
l50-word statement in which Mr..
Smith said the little trick deprived
the Government of 5000 in postage,
and graphically illustrates the diff
ference in the methods OF conducting
the two campaigns"
Mr.. Smith also threatened to take
action against Mr.. Coffee in the House
when Congress convenes in January.
Mr. Dodd denied there was any i'm
propriety IN the circulation under
frank Of his speech by the Washing
ton Representative, and declared Mr..
Smiths attitude on the matter was
evidence of the desperate" nature Of
his campaign.
Smith Statement.
The text of Mr., Smiths statement
follows:
"On day before yesterday I sent out
5000 letters to my constituents on
which I paid postage. In the same
mails, 10000 political speeches of my
opponent went out under the free
frank Of Representative, thereby de-
priving the Treasury of 5000 worth of
postage. This incident graphically
illustrates the difference in the
methods Of conducting the two cam
paigns.
1T may be interesting to know
how this little trick was worked A
member of Congress, John M. Coffee
of Washington State, on June 8,
1898, asked leave of the House to print
in the Record speech of William E.
Dodd, who is we'll known as the recent
Ambassador to Germany. Naturally,
there was no objection to printing in
the Record speech of one whose
official capacity with the Government
had just been severed.
Speech by Son Inserted.
"Under this leave to extend remarks,
Coffee inserted in the record q speech
of an entirely different individual,
namely, William E. Dodd, jr., which
was a political speech in the interest
of his candidacy for Congress from
Virginia. shall bring this incident
to the attention of the House Of
Representatives for appropriate action
at a later date in case Coffee OF
Washington Is reelected"
Mr.. Smith later said Mr.. Coffee's
action was unprecedented" and that
he would urge the House to take
action against him for violation Of
rules.
"You know" he declared, "the
House can take any action against
member that it feels is justified"
Upon learning of the Smith state
ment, Mr.. Dodd said:.

intimidated any W. P A. employees.
There is no evidence" the letter
continued, that any w. P. A. en-
ploye has been threatened with his
job for political reasons"
Mr.. Hopkins, in Chicago for a brief

CHANDLERGA|NS

Observers, However, Expect
BarkIey to Retain
Senate Seat.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN,


LOUISVILLE. KY, July 3o.-Bark-
ley in the stretch.
Happy" Chandler coming up
That about describes the race for the
Democratic senatorial nomination in
Kentucky as the entries. Senator Alben
W. Barkley and Gov. Albert B. Chand-
Ter, enter the final week Of the cam
paign. The voters go to the polls Sat-
urday.
Senator Barkley. who carries the
blessing of President Roosevelt, is
rated by most observers, even by some
who would like to see Chandler win, as
the probable victor.
However, from all parts of the State
come reports that Chandler sentiment
is gaining. If the 40-year-old Gov
ernor finishes with rush he may up
set all the dope. Certainly he has the
young people of the State bowling
their heads of for him. His defeat, if
it comes. will be the result of a studied
campaign to make it appear that
rejection of Senator Barkley would be
repudiation Of President Roosevelt,
his New Deal and his relief program.
Chandler Has Tough Job.
Gov. Chandler-known to Kentucky
and to the country as "Happy"-bit
off tough morsel when he entered
the race for the Senate this year. His
job is:
/. To beat Barkley, a sitting Sena-
tor, with all the prestige incumbency
carries.
2. TO beat the Democratic leader of
the Senate, after President Roosevelt
said to Happy: mo, no, papa SLAP"
The campaign here, despite all the
efforts of Gov. Chandler, has come to
be regarded as a test of Roosevelt
popularity and influence. Should
Senator Barkley be defeated, all over
the country 1t would be regarded as an
administration defeat. 1t would be
nailed also as a warning to the Presi-
cent to keep his hands off Democratic
primary elections.
Senator Barkley says there are onlv
two issues. The first Does his record
uo SeAoCu WdTTdQC his Reelection?
second: Does Kentucky want to re-
pudiate President Roosevelt?
Every hater of President Roosevelt
all over the country will rejoice if
am defeated" is the way the Senator
puts it.
w. P. A. Support Is Issue.
When Barkley people-including
the Senator-are asked about charges
that the w. P. A. and Federal Office
holders generally are being used to re-
nominate Senator Barkley, they look
as though butter would not melt in
their mouths, so righteous are they.
They can't even hazard a guess as
to the number of people on w. P. A.
Gov. Chandler, however, does not
hesitate to discuss the use of the
w. P. A.
Why" he said to me, there are
10000 on w. p. A. in Kentucky TODAY

Tor the A. F. of L. said last night.
Thls is the general idea behind a
proposal for resistance to board orders.
which Mr.. Padway will present to
William Green, A. F. Of L. president.
Mr.. PadWay yesterday attacked the
board for its order invalidating a
contract between the International
Association of Machinists and the

and directing the company to deal
exclusively with the United Automo-
bile Workers of America, c. I, O,

Accuses Board of Bias.
Inc federation had accused the
board on several previous occasions
Of bias in favor of the c. 10.
Mr.. Padway said that the general
outline of the proposal to be presented
to Mr.. Green was this:
Where the board has, in the opinion
OF the A. F. of L.. unfairly favored
the c. I. o. in its decisions, designat-
ing G. I. o. unions as exclusive bar
gaining agents, the A. F. of L. will
demand that the employer deal with
the federation, regardless of the de-
cision
If the employer fails to do so, the
A. F. of L. will hle charges of unfair
labor practices against him before the
labor board. If the board fails to
adjudge the action of the employer
an unfair labor practice the A. F.
OF L. will appeal the decision to the
circuit courts.
Mr.. Padway said the case of the
International Association of Machin-
lists was being held in allegiance until
Arthur Wharton, president of the
union, comes to Washington from
Chicago, where he is conferring with
railroad leaders.
To Be Laid Before Council.
The proposal for resistance to Labor
Board orders will be laid before the
A. F. of L. council when it meets in
Atlantic City in August. And the
entire policy of the federation re-
garding the board will be threshed
out at the convention next October
at Houston, Tex.
The A. F. of L. has indicated its
favor Of an amendment to the Ma
tional Labor Relations Act calculated

the board from taking sides with the
G. I. o. in disputes between U.S."
Strikes against companies comply
ing with adverse labor board orders

siole outcome of the A. F. of L.
struggle with the board. One official
OF the federation. while declaring
that the organization would not adopt
national policy to that effect, added
that If individual unions chose that
method OF fighting the boards order
1t would be their privilege to do so.

SCANT HOPELEFT
F0RL0ST CLIPPER
Slick Samples Found to
Contain Lubricating Oil
and Gasoline.
By the Associated Press.

MANILA, July 81 (Sunday).-A
huge and significant oil slick" found
on the ocean surface left searchers
with scant hope today of finding the
missing Hawaii Clipper and its IS oc-
cupants. But the forlorn hunt con-
tinued.
The big oil patch was found yester-
day by the Army transport Meigs on
the course the trans Pacific flying boat
was following between Guam and
Manila when it vanished Friday
(Thursday night, Pacific time).
Samples dipped up by the Meigs for
scientific examination showed the
slick" contained lubricating oil and
gasoline. 1t was about 1900 feet in
circumference and it lay only so miles
west by southwest of the spot where
the plane last reported its position.
Aviation circles generally regarded
the find as evidence that the clipper
plunged into the sea, but officials of
Pan-American Airways refused to give
up hope of rescue. They conceded the
slick" was Significant, but not con-
elusive"
Not on Any Other Route.
Several warships moved into position
to continue their search of the east
coast of the Philippines pending ex-
animation and further report on the
composition of the "slick."
The spot in question, however, was
not on any ship or air route and ex-
perts concluded there could have been
no other craft in that area to have
caused it.
On many occasions the Navy has
discontinued searching for its own lost
planes upon finding the telltale oil
spot on the water.
The Meigs, nearest vessel to the
clipper when it made its last radio
report, searched the "slick" for possible
traces of wreckage, but in the first at
tempt found none.
At dawn she resumed patrolling of
the oil slick area, but several hours
later reported she had found moth
ing new.

A war Office spokesman said:
Two days ago Soviet troops occu-
pied Shachofeng. approximately 1000
yards north of Changkufeng Hill, and
began fortifying it as they had done
at Changkufeng.
They clashed with border guards,
but were repulsed and then returned
with reinforcements The Japanese
countered and a terrible fight ensued
both at Shachofeng and Changkufeng.
The Russians used mechanical
units including tanks and heavy
artillery. Changkufeng was retaken
at 4:40 am. and Shachofeng at am.
Soviet big guns now are lombard
ing Kucheng, which is a nearby point"
The japanese attack came as
complete surprise, since the govern
ment's previous statements indicated
that only diplomatic means would be
used to settle the bitterly disputed
border sovereignty.
