AMES DOUBTS
WAR BY HITLER

COLLEGE PARK, Md, Jan. 13.
Hitler will not start an interna-
tional war. even to save his own
regime, says Sir Herbert AmeS,
noted Canadian authority on in
ternational affairs.
Speaking before the Interna,
tional Relations Club Of the Uni
verSity of Maryland here last
night, AmeS told the students
Hitler would not start a war with
out the approval of his staff and
most of them are World War vet
Grams. The German today does
not believe he would have as much
chance of victory as he did in
1914, and the general staff is cog
infant of the fact that England
will not make the mistake of de-
laying as in 1914.
Ames, formerly financial ad-
wiser to the League of Nations
secretariat, is making a series of
lectures in Canadian and Ameri-
can colleges.

MOTIVE SOUGHT.
IN SLAYING OF.
WOMAN, GIRL, 10.
Victims Found Gagged,
Bound and Shot

ELMONT, N. Y, Jan. 13 Q.N.SO &.
The Staying of 59-year-old Mrs.
Lenida Waite and 19-year-old Jean
Schuelain without apparent mo-
tive, occupied attention of New
York's homicide experts today.
Sometime between 4 and 5
o'clock yesterday afternoon,
vicious killer literally blasted the
brains out of the woman and her
young visitor with a gun which
left quarter-inch holes in the
skulls.
At 5 o'clock, George Waite, 26,
the widows son, arrived home,
he told police, and sat downstairs
for two hurs before looking for his
mother.
QUARREL HINTED
Two circumstances pointed to-
early solution of the crime and the
cause, authorities said. One was
that the WaiteS' police dog which
barks If a stranger even passes
the house was silent yesterday
The other was that loud voices,
indicating a quarrel, were hard
coming from the house during the
afternoon.
Mrs. Waite apparently was the
intended victim. the Schuelain
girl an incidental victim. The
fact that she was still wearing
hel coat when hel body was found
tieG. to chair indicated that she
walked IN on the murder scene
ano was slain to silence her.
Police said Mrs. Waite had no
money, nothing to steal, indicat.
Ing the motive was not robbery
On the other hand. they added,
she led a retired life and could
hardly nave incurred an enemy
among her small circle Of friends
who would be so bitter as to kill
her, then add another murder to
tie evil deed.
FINDS HER DEAD
On arriving home, Waite said,
he called to his mother and get
tirE no answer through she had
gone out. possibly to the Schuelain
home. He went there but she
wasn't there and neither was
Jean.
He returned bone and occupied
himself with his newspaper until
almost Z o'clock. Then Mrs. Bertha
Peckham, a cousin who boarded
with the Waites. arrived. She
asked at once where Mrs. Waite
vas. George guessed she was
'fout."
When the police arrived, thev
started search of the upstairs
rooms and found Miss Schuelain's
body. Both women had been
gagged with silk stockings, bound
and shot.

This Is scarcely less important than
the first. Our Nation is in as great

They will tell you that private enter

not work, that it necessarily gives way
to private monopoly under private
ownership and that that In turn will
necessarily give way and ought to give

the youth who cannot get a chance
to express their energies. We have
a fair example of American fascism
in the person of the New York State
Commander of the American Legion,
jeremiah F. Cross. He has called
for the capture of the government
by the use of storm troops. Veterans
picket the city hall because of the
appointment of n communist to a
minor office. This is like Hitler's
drive against the Bolsheviks when
he entered Catholic Austria. We re-
member that six million Communist
votes were cast in Germany, yet Hit
Ter took power. So the American
fascists should not be afraid of one
communist or all of them in U. S. A.
But this is the var cry used by all
fascists today. Mussolini did not
need to use it. 1t was the so-called
victories of the European fascists in
Spain and Austria that spurred the
American fascists to surge forward.
Now we are more sure of the nest

in reversing the U. S. District Court
of Wisconsin and the Federal Cir

the holdings of liberal courts in the
states of New York and Wisconsin
which had already determined that
a dispute between a union and an

to the union and its members all the

members. Mr.. Wing, with the very
able assistance of the Associated
Farmers, gathered flock masters to-
gether in central points and levied
assessments of three cents per sheep
on three and one-half million sheep,
amounting to s1O5,0OO, to be used
for the importation of scabs and the
hiring of gunner and thugs. Texas
Wool Growers officials flew to Cali
fornia offering assistance by delay
ing shearing in that state twenty
five days in order for California to
import cheap labor. Individual
sheepmen in California insisting On

farm officials that if they did not

The strike lasted SO days in Ari-

with full support of organized labor

No garment containing wool can
rightfully be called a union-made
garment, where the wool is shorn
from the sheep by scab labor. Every
man and woman handling wool is a
member of organized labor, working
under a signed agreement so why

PUBLIC COOPERATION

At the last several meetings of the

of cooperation by the public with
the men was discussed. It was
brought out in these conversations
that it has been rather difficult for
the National City Lines, Inc, to oper-
ate in the Butte field owing mostly
to the cessation of mining activities
and the general decreases in pay
rolls.
The practice of motorists picking

justified in many instances, really

luton submitted by the Yellowstone
Council in this case is printed else

A communication was received
from the joint committee of the Car
penters and Joiners of America at
Tacoma, Washington, asking organ
lied labor to purchase union made
furniture, and also demanding that
furniture shows on the coast be open
to the public. The Trades and Labor
Council concurred in the request
from the Carpenters and are de-
manding that these shows be open
to the people in general. The letter
from Tacoma is as follows:
Silver Bow Trades and Labor
Council:
We wish to call a very important
matter to the attention of your hon
orable body, Three years ago work
ing conditions and wages paid in the
furniture industry on the Pacific
Coast were deplorable, Taking adj
vantage of the opportunity offered us
by the National Recovery Act, we
organized ourselves into unions affil-
lated with the Brotherhood of Car
penters and Joiners of America and
the Upholsterers, Furniture, Limo
leum and Awning Workers Inter
national of North America and the
American Federation. Through our
efforts as organized workers, we
have increased our wages, until al
the present time our minimum wages
is higher than the highest wages
paid in the south and east. This
higher wage has been reflected some
what in the prices to the retail fur
niture dealers. The retail dealers are
therefor catering more and more tc
the low wage paying district of the
south and east.
Will you please make a note. Of
this in the minutes of your Council
to all affiliated unions. Ask theil
membership to demand furniture
made in the northwest and bearing
the union label of both International
mentioned above.
We have yet another problem, The
manufacturers hold a furniture show
twice each year, to display their new
and latest designs to the retail furni
ture dealers. This show is a private
affair, with the public excluded, We
feel this show should be opened t.
the public, as in Milwaukee, Wis.
Rockford, Illinois, and jamestown
New York, the manufacturers hav'
opened the show to the public. I
has proven there, what we contend
it will do here, stimulate bushes
and a revived interest in the HON,
and its furnishings.
Will your Council therefor send

the Retail Furniture Dealers Asso
