PEACE ORGANIZATIONS URGE
CONGRESS STAY IN SESSION

Washington, ID. c. QLNS).-Ap-
proval of the demand that Congress
should remain in session as long as the
war crisis exists was expressed in a
statement issued here by six peace
organizations, including the Labor
Anti-War Council and the National
Council for the Prevention of War.
The statement said:
"The Constitution gives Congress
the responsibility of war and peace.
No issue is of such vital Importance
to the people. Members of Congress
could not better demonstrate their
patriotism, their faithfulness to the
Constitution and to the people than
by remaining in Washington to ex-
ercise their right to keep this country
out of war. 1t is to be assumed that
the Executive desirous Of collaboration
in this effort will welcome continu-
alton of the present session of Con
gress so long as danger of war eX-
lists.
"No government policy can be eff
fective unless it has the united sup
port of the people. This united sup
port depends upon clear expression
of the will of the people through Con
gress and compliance by the Executive
with that will"

ment last week, when the three mem

PIon TO DispIoce

Druws Ire of AFL
Bill Would Also Enddnger
Asidtic Exclusion
Policy

Washington, D. C.-Another at
tempt is being made by the C. I. o.
to qualify Filipinos for jobs on Ameri-
can ships.
On March 20, 1889, the president
of the C. I. O. Seamen's Union testi
fled before the House Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries that
there were unemployed in Atlantic
and Gulf ports approximately $4,000
experienced seamen and approximate
ly 5000 licensed officers.
On May 3, 1889, the Legislative
Representatives of the C. |. o. Sea-
mems Union testified before the House
immigration Committee in support of
H. R. 3657 providing that Filipinos
who have served three years on Amer
lean ships shall be eligible to U. S.
citizenship.
When asked if the enactment of this
bill would not further increase un-
employment among American seamen
the c.. |. o. representative startled the
members of the committee by declar-
ing that there was scarcely any un-
employment among American seamen
at the present time.
The G.. I. o. sponsored a similar
bill at the previous session of Con-
gress but the gentleman who intro
duced the bill failed Of election last
November This setback evidently
has not discouraged the c. I. O. strate-
gists. They still want the Filipinos
to be eligible for citizenship and for
jobs on American ships.
The only one who joined the c. |
o. representative in support of H. R
1857 was the Philippine Commissioner
to the House Of Representatives, Mr..
Joaquin Miguel Elizalde.
Opposing the proposal to naturalize
Filipinos were Congressman Richard
Welsh of San Francisco, James H.
Patten representing various patriotic
organizations, and Paul Scharrenberg,
Legislative Representative of the
American Federation Of Labor.
The opponents of the bill stressed
the fact the Filipinos had been treated
most generously by the Congress of
the United States. Upon their own
earnest petition they have been grant
ed independence. An appropriation
has been voted by Congress to enable
all Filipinos in the United States to
return to their native land free of
charge if they wish to do so.
Aside from this it is virtually GER
tain that Chinese, japanese and other
Asiatic countries will again raise the
cry of discrimination if Filipinos
should be singled out from the hun
dreds of millions of Asiatics who are
now denied the privilege Of American
naturalization.
Needless to say, such grant OF
naturalization to Filipinos would oper
the entire question of Asiatic exclu
sion which has become really etfec
tive since it was based upon ineligi
bility to citizenship.

bUCAdminisfrution
Rules On Payments
To Injured Workers

Columbus, o. (OLNS).-H. C. At
kinson, administrator of the Ohio Bu-
reau of Unemployment Compensation,
last week ruled that out-of-work bene-
fits are payable in specific circum-
stances to eligible unemployed who
are receiving workmen's compensation
from the Ohio Industrial Commission
for permanent or temporary partial
disability.
"Monies paid. for temporary par
tial disability under the workmen's s
compensation act must be regarded in
the nature of unemployment compen-
sation while. suffering from such
INJURIES" the decision reads.
"Our law covers only partial dis
ability" the administrators said. "Total
disability, whether permanent or tenn
porary, is not covered by the unem-
ployment compensation act since log
ically the recipient would be unavail-
able and incapable of work, hence not
eligible to receive benefits"
Boiled down, the rule permits the
payment of unemployment compen-
sation to workers receiving workmen's
compensation for temporary or per-
manent partial disability, when they
become unemployed for reasons other
than their injury and are entitled to
benefits by having worked in 20 weeks

employment in concert and to inform
the world of their controversy.
Senator Burke stated that he de-
sired to protect the Individual worker
and minority groups in their rights.
His proposal runs counter to that as
sertion.
81 do not wish to take the time of
this Committee and launch upon a
discussion of these legislative pro-
posals which are entirely Incompatible
with the purposes of the Act, would
destroy its guarantees and bring on
worse evils than those which the Act
was intended to overcome.
"The American Federation of Labor
is opposed to these comprehensive
bills which have thus far been intro
duced in both houses of Congress on
behalf of groups and organizations
who wish to revert to that period in
labor history when strife, turmoil
and government by injunction was the
order of the day."

next month. Four hundred of the
Chukor birds, imported from the
mountains of Asia, were bred on the

With its red legs and brown and
white head markings, the Chukor
partridge will prove strange addi-
ton to the bag of the Maryland sports
man, but probably a welcome one.
The Chukor is described as "a fine, fat
bird, all breast meat. It's weight, full
grown, is more than pound.
Ready to be turned loose throughout
the State next month also, are 1000
bob-whites. Garrett county will get
her share of both species.
