TTTF MORNING OREGOXIAIf, SATTJEDAT, JUNE 14, 1919. CITIZENS TO STRIKE IS NEW TEUTON PLAN Civil War Sought as Means to Get Political Power. EX-KAlSER SEEN IN PLOT Socialists' Opposition to Cabinet Lessens and Central Govern ' ' ment Is Stronger. ' BERLIN. Thursday, June 12. A. se cret session of the citizens council of Greater Berlin, held on Wednesday, de clared in favor of a citizens' strike, ac cording to tne independent socialist newspaper Die Freihelt. The attend ance included a number of leading manufacturers, merchants and profes sional men, and Colonel Relnhardt, the Tticnl n mini cror lf Wai". The chairman of the meeting is quoted as declaring that a striae waa necessary because the present govern ment was incapable of redeeming Ger many from chaos. It was planned, according to the newspaper, to have airplanes distribute leaflets announcing when the strike would begin. Civil War Planned. All the food industries, including the bakeries would cease work, according to the plan, this leading to civil war, which it was held would help the Bour geoisie attain political power. Letters exchanged between officials of the League for Protection of William II, one of which refers to a remittance of 20,000 marks to Holland for the pur pose of "cultivating the Dutch press," are printed by the Socialist Vorwaerts. The newspaper remarks that the league must spend considerably more than this on its propaganda, "in view of the de termination of the entente to have the x-emperor surrendered." Cabinet Is Stronger. The position of the German cabinet has been materially strengthened as a result of the speeches of Gustav Noeke and Phllipp Scheidemann at the Wei mar convention of the majority social ist party, according to the view of the non-socialist press. Opposition to the members of the cabinet in their own party seems to have been overcome. WEIMAR, Thursday, June 12. (By the Associated Press.) Resolutions ex pressing indignation at the "peace of violence" which makes Germany's fu ture "impossible," were adopted by the majority socialist party at ita conven tion here today. ISO FOOD THIEVES ARRESTED Dock Workers Forced to Give Tp Large Quantities of Supplies. HAMBURG. Thursday, June 12. (By the Associated Press.) An increasing number of thefts on the- part of dock workers engaged in unloading Amer ican food ships here resulted last night in another search of workers returning home from the docks. The result was that large quantities of bacon, flour and cereals were recovered. One hun dred and thirty arrests were made. TWO ARE KILLED IN FALL (Continued From First Page.) son. "He had been in the air 35 or 40 hours under instruction, but was not competent to fly himself." With such terrific force did the aero plane strike the street that the sound was heard for blocks around, and while the district is sparsely settled hun dreds of persons gathered in a few minutes. A detail of army guards from the flying field, with police, took charge at the scene of the tragedy and prevented souvenir hunters from get ting to the wrecked plane and it was to prevent morbid destruction of this na ture that Lieutenant Neubig ordered the plane burned. Dual Controls on Machine. The wrecked plane was constructed with dual controls. Whether Hutchin son feared that Milkowski might at tempt to use the dual control is un known, but a few minutes before the two went up, he disconnected the front control. Hutchinson received the air craft in Portland Tuesday night. He imme diately shipped it out to the lying field to have the assistance of the army mechanics in assembling it. He announced it was his intention to charge $10 for 10-minute aerial dashes, but when he got the machine to Walla Walla he would use it for purposes of communication between his Walla Walla ranch and another one 200 miles distant, devoted to stock. Machine Runs Perfect. Enlisted men at the flying field who saw the tragedy scout the idea of the tragedy having resulted because of faulty assembling. They pointed out that Hutchinson already had made one landing and that the machine was run ning perfectly. "He simply nose-dived too close to earth and could not recover control," they said. The nose of the machine struck head on at the concrete sidewalk. The fu silage of the machine was smashed in innumerable fragments. One piece was driven clear into the head of one of the aviators. All Bones Broken. Undertakers who removed the bodies had to extricate them from a tangle in which they were enveloped. Both bodies were horribly marred and probably every bone in both bodies was broken. The wings of the machine lay spread, eagled over the pavement. The machine. No. C 182. bore an in spection tag. dated May 21, 1919, at Toronto, Canada. All Flying Done Low. The machine appeared to be under perfect control until a few minutes be fore it took the fatal dive," said E. J. Chapman of 1306 East Seventeenth street, last night. "I was watching it go through some stunts and was ad miring the graceful progress of the craft. It looped and dived. I thought it was one of the army aviators. All of the flying was comparatively low. while I was watching the machine It tood a sudden dive toward the ground but still I did not think any thing was the matter until I heard the engine stop. It was behind some trees then and I could not see what hap , pened. Then I saw people begin run ning in that direction and jumped in 6 Bell-ans Hot water , Sure Relief ELL-AN S -FOR JNQIGCSTmi my car, on which . I had been working, and ran down there myself." William Burdlelgh Hutchinson was 22 years of age, and prior to enlisting in the naval service was a student of the Walla Walla high school, and assistant weather observer at that place. He was married not long ago to a daughter of S. W. Hester, a well-known farmer liv ing in Whetstone Hollow, near Dayton, Wash. Hutchinson's mother lives in Walla Walla. Two years ago Mr. Hutchinson enlist ed -in the army air service, being as signed to aviation while stationed at San Diego and Riverside, CaL He was discharged in January, and received his aviation license but a short time ago. The machine in which he met death was the Curtiss bi-plane C-182, and was purchased in San Francisco June 4 for $3000. Raymond Staub. a senior at the medical college of the university, and Frank B. Thompson, also a student, were the first to reach the scene of the plane's fall. They found both men dead. Witnesses of the drop say Hutchin son appeared to be trying to thrill the crowd below when he was at a height of about 600 or 800 feet. The machine previously had negotiated several maneuvers that showed the pilot to be an experienced driver when suddenly it turned its nose to earth. The motor continued to run until the crash came. Lieutenant Neubig ordered other fly ing officers who approached the scene away from the tragedy, saying that Colonel Watson did not wish them to see what had occurred aa it might de stroy their nerve. A large detachment of police under Captain Inskeep were at the scene of the tragedy within 15 minutes after the accident. Captain Inskeep did effective work in keeping the morbid crowd away from the death scene. Fllgnt Proposals Revealed. Newspaper clippings found in Mr. Hutchinson's pocket indicated that he naa made propositions to make exhibi tion flights in Wallace Walla and Yakl ma. Wash., and in Pendleton, Or., this summer. Captain Inskeep had police on the scene in a few minutes, with a physi cian rrom the emergency hospital. Both the men had been killed instantly, how ever, and the bodies were not removed until Deputy Coroner Goetsch arrived. Hutchinson had purchased the aero plane from Earl P. Cooper, of the Prest-O-Lite company, San Francisco, accord ing to papers found in his pocket. One of the papers showed that he made a deposit of $100 as evidence of his good faith in trying out the plane, and the other showed that he had completed Payment of $3000 for title to the ma chine. Both papers were dated June 4, 1913. R. C. Barnes, president and general manager of the Oregon Aircraft & Transportation company, who wit nessed the accident, said last night many people had confused the plane With that owned by his company and desired to correct the erroneous im pression. Mr. Barnes declared Hutchin son had gone up in his machine without a final check and had disregarded usual precautions by trying to do difficult maneuvers immediately after assembl ing. That the pilot also was in error in not going to a greater height, Mr. Barnes said was apparent to all avi ators on the field. "The motor was working perfectly," said Mr. Barnes, "and the machine re sponded wonderfully in the thrilling stunts he put it through. The nose dive had been completed, even at a dangerously low point,, and the plane had just straightened out when some thing went wrong. It came down nose first, with the motor still in operation, but was so badly wrecked that the cause of the accident cold not be de termined." . . Flight to Waria Walla Planned. William D. Pearson, pilot of the car owned by the Aircraft & Navigation company,. also was a witness to the ac cident. "The plane was not built for stunts such as Hutchinson put it through yesterday," he said, "but that type often is used for such maneuvers. It was of Canadian make, and when I suggested to Hutchinson yesterday that he strengthen certain parts with braces, he replied, 'I've never had one of them break with me yet." He had planned to start his flight to Walla Walla in the morning, to use the plane in connection with farming operations." TOO MUCH WATER COMES IRRIGATION CELEBRATION" IS MARKED BY RAIX.

PHONE LINES JEOPARDIZED Electrical Workers Out Monday Ex pected to Add 130,000 to 3 um ber of Strikers. CHICAGO, June 13. The second stage of the commercial telegraphers" strike will be reached tomorrow, when rail road operators at 23.000 points in America are to discontinue handling commercial messages under an order is sued by the Order of Railroad Teleg raphers. Such action, strike leaders declared tonight, will tie up all commercial tele graph business except between the larger cities, in which the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies maintain their own offices. Officials of the Postal said that com pany would not be affected by the or der, as little Postal business is handled through railroad stations. Western Union officials predicted its effect would not have serious results. Strike Move Spreads. Meanwhile officers of the Commer cial Telegraphers' Union of America continued to receive reports indicating the strike is spreading. S. J. Konen kamp, international president of the union, said the number of strikers had reached 22.000; that the strike of elec trical workers set for next Monday would add 130.000 workers to the list of those idle, and that by early next week telephone service in many cities and towns will be greatly impaired through a walkout of telephone opera tors. Practically all union telephone opera tors are members of the electrical workers' union. Committees set to work in many cities today picketing among telephone operators, who are be ing urged to join the strikers. Brokers' Men to 'Vote. The brokers' division of the teleg raphers union has been asked to take action. Meetings were to be held to night and tomorrow at which it will be decided whether to strike in sym pathy. Claims of strike leaders that the walkout is rapidly spreading were re- luted by officials of commercial com panies, who said they were accepting business without restrictions and that conditions were practically normal. The Association of Western Union employes, representing 65 per cent of Western Union workers, announced that a small number of strikers in that company had returned to work. Peace Move Made. A committee representing the strik ers submitted to the Postal company conditions upon which a settlement could be reached. They provided that tne company agree to wage adjust ments after the government has re leased control of the company. The conditions were forwarded to New York. The union men charged that Postmas ter-General Burleson had in a sense tied the hands of the commercial com panies by prohibiting the signing of wage contracts. The number of Chicago strikers waa placed at 800 by strike leaders. The Western Union said only 61 persons were absent from the operating de partment, and the Postal announced that of the 350 operators. 70 per cent were at work. The messengers of both companies still are on strike. Kenenkamn Claims Gain. 'We gained between 1500 and 2000 men today; that is. that many joined the strike," Mr. Konenkamp said to night. "Mr. Reynolds will find himself sadly mistaken in a few days." he said, when told that the Postal general manager in New York had said the men were returning to work, and that no princi ple was involved in the strike. "What about collective bargaining" asked Mr. Konenkamp. "Doesn't he consider that a principle? However, we are not alarmed by Mr. Reynolds statement." COAST STRIKERS CONFIDENT Telegraphers and Electrical Men Join Forces In California. SAN FRANCISCO. June 13. Striking telegraphers and the various electrical workers' unions who expect to go on strike on Monday, combined their inter ests in the San Francisco bay region today to effect a complete tie-up of wire utilities here. "The government must act before to morrow night if it wishes to prevent the electrical workers' strike," R. E. Swain, president of the Pacific district council. International Brothernood or Electrical Workers, said today. "We will be unable to prevent the strike after that, as the time for notifying the unions will be too short." LOS ANGELES. June 13. Statements of officials of the Postal Telegraph company here and L. I. Marshall, first international vice-president of the Commercial Telegraphers' Union of America, were at variance tonight as to whether any of the telegraphers who struck Wednesday had returned to work or offered to return. . V. V. Stevenson, district manager of the Postal, said several operators had applied for their former positions here today and one man had been accepted. Mr. Marshal tBtated the situation had improved from the viewpoint of the strikers. "Not a single operator who left the Postal has offered to return," he said. "Reports from all western cities are favorable." Mr. Marshall is directing the strike west of Denver. POSTAl PEACE MOVE DENIED General Manager Reynolds Says No Word From Strikers. NEW YORK. June 13. The Postal Telegraph company has entered into no negotiations whatever with ita striking operators and has received no com municatlon from them at any time ex cept through the public press, it wai said here today by Edward Reynolds, general manager of the Postal system. Mr. Reynolds added that the company looks on the strike as virtually at an end. LOCAL LEADERS CONFIDENT Strikers Here Expect Big Results From Railway Men's Aid. Twenty-five percent of Western Union business will be tied up in Ore gon and Washington at 6 A. M. today, according to President William Burke of the commercial telegraphers' union. Every small railroad station at which the Western Union has not an inde pendent office will refuse to handle Western, Union telegrams, aod .these W points represent 80 percent of Western Union stations in the northwest. Should Walter D. Hines, railroad ad ministrator, endeavor to force out the members of the Order of Railroad Tel egraphers as a result of this action, the four other big railroad brotherhoods will strike, said Burke.

HANDS OFF, SAYS WILSON (Continued Krom First Pare.) turbances that will be annoying, but no one in the ranks of labor whether he is classed as an extreme radical or an extreme conservative or in all the ele ments between those two will stand for bolshevism for a minute when he knows what bolshevisb itself stands for." "They talk a great deal about the dictatorship of the proletariat and we who have been more or less familiar wit hthe theories promulgated by Marx had Interpreted the dream to mean that a majority of the workers of the land would determine the policy of it and impose it upon the balance of our peo ple. And our workers were not willing to accept even that kind of a principle." Resolutions urging, recognition of the soviet government of Russia -and the lifting of. the blockade , against 'that part of the country under its control were among 200 submitted by dele gates attending the convention, texts of which were made public to day. Publication of the resolution concerning soviet Russia aroused in tense interest among the delegates, and was more discussed than any other. Indications were that when It comes up for discussion on the floor it is likely to precipitate a bitter controversy. Free Ireland Advocated The Independence of Ireland, a six hour working day. immediate repeal of the espionage law, the electoral fran chise for the district of Washington, D. C, regulation of the meat-packing Industry, action by congress to lower I the cost of living, condemnation of In troduction into their plants by steel companies and other big industries of the "Rockefeller plan" of collective bargaining and a severe condemnation of the "Prussian Istlc, imperialistic" postmaster-general, are suggested in some of the other important resolu tions. The resolution on Russia, which was adopted by the Seattle organization, calls upon congress immediately to or der troops out of Russia and recognise the soviet government, and would re quire the American Federation of Labor to conduct a ballot of all local unions to "ascertain the sentiment" of the membership upon the question of rec ognition of the bolshevists. The result, it is declared, "would serve as a guide to the conduct of all labor officials and unionists generally." Lift for GoniDera Urged. Restriction of immigration, further action by organised labor to assist in securing the release from jail of Thorn as Mooney, government ownership of railroads according to the plan fostered by the railroad brotherhoods, proper enforcement of the seamen s act. in crease in the salary of President Gom pers to $10,000 a year, approval of Sec retary Lane's project to furnish land for soldiers and sailors, a protest against the emergency fleet corpora tion charging excessive rents for hous ing facilities furnished by it. also were submitted as deserving the approval of organised labor as a body. Several resolutions propose the changing of Labor day to May 1. A resolution severely condemning the American Tobacco comlV.ny for alleged practices affecting cigarmakers was adopted.
