vandenberg Opposes
Taft Amendment on
Labor Injunciions
By The Associated Pres,

Senator Taft, Republican, of
Ohio bumped into opposition by
Senator Vandenberg, Repubh-
can, of Michigan today In his
drive to broaden pending labor
legislation to let private employ
ers seek injunctions against jur-
isdictional strikes and secondary
boycotts.
Senator Vandenberg refused to
comment, but colleagues said he
had raised objections within the Re-
publican Policy Committee to the
amendment-one of four Senator
Taft Is offering-on the grounds
that 1t would be regarded as move
to scuttle the Norris-La Guardia
Act.
When this act, barring Federal
court injunctions in labor disputes,
was passed on March /, 1892, the
Michigan Senator was one OF the rs
who voted for 1t. Others now in the
Senate who supported the measure
include Senators Barkley, Democrat,
Of Kentucky, Connally, Democrat,
Of Texas. George, Democrat, of
Georgia, Hayden. Democrat. of Ari-
zona, and White, Republican, OF
Maine.
Taft May Seek Compromise.
Senator Vandenberg's opposition
to the proposal lined him up against
Senator Taft, as we'll as Senator
George, who joined Sena tors Ball,
Republican, Of Minnesota, Byrd,
Democrat, OF Virginia. and Donnell,
Republican, of Missouri, In offering
the amendment to the Labor Com
mittee bill the Senate has been de-
batting since last week.
Friends insisted that Senator
Vandenberg's split with Senator
Taft over the proposal at a closed
meeting of the policy committee
could not be described as a "row."
And there was evidence that Sen
ator Taft was moving to attempt to
bring about compromise,
The Ohio Senator said there may
be revision permitting the filing
Of such injunction action only by
district attorneys. Senator Taft
added, however, that he is facing
demands for tough" amendment,
as we'll as for less drastic pro-
vision.
Some of the Senators from farm
States think that farmers ought to
have the right to go into court to
stop some of these secondary boy
colts that have been operating
against them,' he told a reporter.
AS presently drawn, the amend
ment would operate against prac-
tices In which one union refuses
to handle the products of another
union. This is termed secondary
boycott. Jurisdictional strikes in
volve a dispute between unions as
to which will do certain work.
Although Senator Taft publicly
predicted Senate adoption of this
and three other pending amend
ments, there we're some indications
that he would be willing to sacri-
flee the injunction proposal to get
approval of the other three.
These would ID prohibit unions
from interfering with workers rights
to self-organization, (2) restrict the
practice of industry wide bargain
ing and 90 prohibit union-con-
trolled welfare funds.

Miss Yen Sues JeweIer
For Value Of jeWeIs

ing for total of s10,620 from Nor
man D. Siedenberg, local jeweler,
asserting he had failed to return

paired.

mounting, and an imperial jade

Urgency Of Diagnosis ..,..
OF Coma Victim Stressed

The. District Medical Society's
series of postgraduate lectures on
problems of diagnosis was concluded
last night with a discussion of coma
by DR.. Howard F. Root, associate
in medicine at Harvard Medical
School.
DR.. Root, who is the physician-in in
chief of New England Deaconess
Hospital. stressed the urgency of a
correct diagnosis and pointed out
delayed or faulty analysis of the
cause of coma may be fatal.
The distinction between insulin
reaction and diabetic coma, DR..
Root declared, Is "one of the most
important diagnostic problems in
all medicine"
Whereas the former condition is
characterized by falling blood
sugar level and is relieved by ad-
ministration of carbohydrates. he
pointed out. insulin should be given
to persons suffering from diabetic
coma.
The lecture took place in the Dis
trict Medical Society auditorium.
