SECRET SERVICE ON JOB .Enforcement of Act of October 6, 1918, AVill Clean Out Radicals, ex-Prosecutor Declares. "Seventy-five per cent of the mem bers of the Industrial "Workers of the World are men who are not citi zens of the United States. Under the act of October 6. 1918, these men can be deported," declares Clarence L. Keames, former United States attor ney for Oregon, who later handled the espionage cases in the state of Washington. The solution to the "red" problem, according to Mr. Reames, is to send these agitators back to the land of their nativity. The shirkers, such as Finns, Norwegians and others, who avoided military service, under the treaty agreement, should be sent back home as soon as possible, now that the war is over, instead of permitting them to remain and prosper here, says the former prosecutor. Air. Reames had one of the most Important duties devolving on any government representative in the Pa cific northwest during the war. After he had handled espionage cases in Portland his record was such that he was transferred to Seattle where he directed the forces of the depart ment of justice and established a notable reputation for himself by his ability in handling the espionage sit uation. 'Prior to the war," eays Mr. Reames, "the United States made treaties with various countries in which both coun tries agreed that in the event of war the citizen of one was not to be sub ject to military duty . in the other country unless fully naturalized. Nor way, Sweden and Finland were some of the countries with which the United States had such agreement. Fre-War Conditions Lax, "Before the war we were rather lax about citizenship. Men were per mitted to vote on first papers. Only in recent years have there been con stitutional amendments and other statutes requiring full citizenship for voting. Up to a few years ago thou sands of men who had declared their intentions to become citizens, and never carried out their declaration, were permitted to attend the elec tions and exercise all the rights of full citizenship. "When the war came, many of these men from Norway, Finland and Swe den, demanded enforcement of the treaty agreement when the selective service law became effective. They wanted to avoid military service for the United States. Some local boards refused to grant the exemption and when an appeal was taken by the shirkers to the department of state there was nothing for the latter to do but to grant the petition. "These men were required to sign a statement that they withdrew their applications and canceled their citi zenship. These shirkers escaped mili tary duty; made money and now want to remain here. They are showing no disposition to return to their native land. This being the case, America should send them home. United States Only Stopping Place. "This is the class which is largely causing the disturbances. They are the radicals. They claim allegiance to no country and use the United States as a stopping place. They should be cent on their way. "Investigation discloses that 75 per cent of the men who compose the membership of the I. "W. W. are not American citizens. In the state of Washington the percentage Is even higher. An act was enacted Octo ber 6, 1918, which is an amendment to the immigration statute. It provides that if a person becomes a member of. or associates with, or espouses the cause of any organization teaching principles of anarchy or advocating seizure of private property by other than lawful means, or overthrow of government, or resistance to its laws, mere membership is grounds for de portation regardless of the length of time the alien has lived In the United States. Prior to this amendment, if a person lived in the United States three years the statute of limitations became operative and there was no deporting him unless a felony was committed within the- three-year period. "It is probably inadvisable to at tempt to deport now the entire alien membership of the I. W. W. There are hundreds of ignorant working men in its ranks who do not know what it is aiming at and think it Is a labor union. Unskilled men, unable to join any union affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, are attracted to the I. W. W. when it Is represented to them as a labor or ganization which they can join. Act Should Be Enforced. "What ought to be done is for the department of labor to give its en forcement officers authority to en force the act of October S. 1918, to the end that these officers can arrest and hold aliens of the I. W. W. on proof that they are such, and that those misguided and ignorant members on severing their connection with the or ganization be permitted to remain and go on prohibition, while the radicals and leaders are deported". "Whatever provocation there may be for mob law or its apparent neces sity, it is not only unfortunate but wrong against the government, as it is a violation of law and permits I. "w. w- radicals to pose as martyrs and carry on propaganda among the ig norant. There is ever danger under mob law that the guilty will escape and that the innocent will be pun ished. 'Luckily, the state of Washington has had capital punishment restored to its statute books. "The entire power of the state of v acumsLon iB Deing used to ferret out the crime and punish the iruiltv. The state is aroused and nothing will be left undone to -fix responsibility for the Centralia outrage. The inves tigation will not stop with the wretches who fired the cowardly shots, but will go on to the men who were the producing cause. The of fenders will be found. That is cer tain. The government has turned its secret service loose to run down the perpetrators and no one behind the crime will go unpunished." Liquor Law Violator Fined. THE DALLES. Or., Nov. 14. (Spe cial.) John Hartman pleaded guilty in justice court to a charge of having liquor illicitly in his posses sion. Justice Allen fined Hartman $350 and sentenced him to serve three months in the county jail.

PRINTERS TO GET $41 FOR 48-HOUR WEEK Board of Arbitration Ends Long Controversy. LIVING WAGE MADE BASIS Union Fails to Win Demand or $42 for 42-Hour Week; Award Retroactive to Sept. 1. Maintenance of the 48-hour week and granting of an Increase ' in the wage scale of slightly more than 50 per cent of what the unions had de manded are features of the award of the board of arbitration, handed down yesterday in the controversy of the Portland commercial printing houses and members of the allied printing trades. The new scale for the journeyman compositor is $41 for a 48-hour week, as compared with the previous wage of $36 for a 48-hour week and the demand of $42 for a 42-hour week. The decision yesterday marked the culmination of almost two months of hearings and study conducted by the arbitration board members. It was about the middle of August when the controversy first arose, and after sev eral efforts by the employers and union men to reach an agreement It was decided to arbitrate the case. Public hearings were started the mid dle of September. In all 18 hearings were held and the transcript of the public hearings alone covered nearly 1000 typewritten pages. In making the award Chairman Franklin T. Griffith and the other members of the arbitration board pro pounded two principles upon which the award may be said to have hung: First, that the wage scale should be based primarily upon a living wage for men and women of average abil ity, and, second, that in the promul gation of wages above this minimum due regard must be given wages paid for like services in competitive com munities. The decision of the arbitration board was unanimous and the final award, prepared by Mr. Griffith, was signed by all five members as their collective opinion and decision. The members of the board. In addition to Mr. Griffith, were E. R. James and M. J. Sweeney, representing the employ ing printers, and A. C. Ravens and F. A. Williams, representing the three, local unions involved, the Multnomah Typographical union No. 58. Portland Printing Pressmen and Assistants' union No. 43 and Bookbinders' and Bindery Women's union No. 90-113. The award will be retroactive to Sep tember 1. The findings of the arbitration board, together with the new wage scale, follows: I There Is In existence today an agreement between the International unions, of which the locals Involved In this controversy are members, and that section of United Typothetae employing only members of said unions, of which the Portland Print ing association are members, providing that the working hours of members of the crafts shall be 4S hours a week until -May l, which date a 44-hour week shall be adopted. The agreement referred to was approved by referendum vote of the mem bership of the-unions Involved. we con clude, therefore, the agreement referred to is binding upon both parties to this- ar bitration and that the hours of work dur ing the 12 months' period ending August 31, lUHO. shall be 48 hours a week. 11 Tht there is little, if any, difference in the degre of skill or value to the in dustry of the work performed by journey men compositors. Journeymen cylinder pressmen and binderymen, other thaji stock cutters. Ill That there is little. If any, difference In the degree of skill or value to the In women of average ability and that the policy now in force In several of the printing plants ol roniana or rewarding men and women of exceptional ability by paying them more than the standard scale, should be encouraged and extended. That the same scale of wages should apply to first and second rulers and first nd second binderymen. In the fixation of wage scales above the minimum absolutely required by living costs in any community, due regard must be given wages paid for like services In competitive communities In order to se cure and retain In Portland plants the bustnets to which said plants are entitled. we recognize also that scales of wages niKner man tnose paid in competitive com munities can be maintained onlv bv es tablishing a relatively higher standard of einciency in workmanship and manage ment, auu we entertain tne hope and be lief that the wage scales hereinafter ne scribed can and will be maintained h.
