SOVIET LABOR RULE
FLAYED BY GOMPERS
Refusal to Urge Recognition
by America Repeated.
AGITATION IS RESENTED
Federation Head Declines to Recede
From Position and Calls Crit
ics 'Unpatriotic Americans.
"WASHINGTON. March 27. (By the
Associated Press.) Samuel Oompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, today denounced as "unpa
triotic Americans" those labor leaders
who have criticised his refusal to
indorse the .Russian soviet govern
ment or urge its recognition by the
Vnited States.
Refusal to recede from his position
was expressed by Gompers in a letter
to the Central Trades Unions of Kala
mazoo. Mich.. Phoenix, Ariz., Laramie,
"Wyo., and other similar labor organi
sations which had adopted resolutions
condemning the administration of the
federation because of its Russian
stand, as subservient to capital and
against' the best interests of the
workers.
Propaganda la DlaraNard.
The action of these bodies, the let
ter said, apparently was based on con
clusions drawn from "utter misin
formation" of the Russian situation.
"No document has been received by
me containing more misinformation
or conclusions based on euch a lack
of knowledge," the letter said. "It
is true that I read much of the prop
aganda in favor of the bolshevikl
government of Russia and 1t is true
that the letter adopted by, the Kala
mazoo trades and labor council gives
voii'e to that propaganda.
"It is past understanding how Am
erican citizens can bring themselves
to aid and comfort a propaganda that
has for its purpose the destruction of
the trade labor movement in America
and the overthrow of our republic."
Soviet Tartlca Oppoaed
The letter quoted from soviet of
ficial announcements as to the ne
cessity for "militarization of labor"
and commented on measures Trotzky
had taken to force the return to work
if railway and bank employes who
had "voluntarily quit."
"Does the Kalamazoo trades and
labor council support this programme
for the United States?" Mr. Gompers
inquired.
Ha declared that "the communist
party in Russia numbered less than
10,000 members."
Assertion of the Kalamazoo central
body that unemployment in America
would be relieved by lifting the em
bargo on Russia, Mr. Gompers de
nied on the ground that there Is no
euch embargo and if there were, lift
ing it would have no material effect
on0lrade relations.
"The greatest amount of American
manufactured articles sent to Russia,
outside of munitions, was in 1913," he
wrote, "and then amounted to only
J40,000,000."
Obnlarle Now la Denied.
Trade relations with Russia were
normally resumed in July, 1920, the
letter continued, with removal of the
embargo and today "there is no ob
stacle In the way of the Russian
people dealing with the United States
as far as the latter is concerned." '
"Millions of dollars are known to
have been sent from Russia to the
United States to pay those who cir
culated bolshevik propaganda." he
said. "If those who have aided in
the circulation have failed to be re
warded they have missed a- great op
portunity for gain.
"When the people of Russia elect
a representative government, the
American Federation of Labor will be
first to demand its recognition."
It is understood that about 60 cen
tral labor organizations and locals
have gone on record as opposing Mr.
Gompers' anti-Russian policy.
E
WOMAN LEGISLATOR, GIVES
REASON'S FOR CHANGE.
Cost to Slate of Maintenance of
Institutions for Defectives
Held Argument for Oau.se.
KALEM. Or., March 27. (Special.)
The cost of .maintaining the several
state institutions which, at tha re
cent session of the legislature, was
reported to aggregate J985.000 per
year, is one of the most convincing
arguments why the taxpayers of Ore
, gon should approve at the special
election to be held om June 7 the
measure making it incumbent upon
all persons seeking a license to marry
to undergo, both mental and physical
examinations, according to Represent
ative W. S. Kinney of Clatsop county
in a statement submitted to the secre
tary of state today for publication in
the voters' pamphlet.
This measure was approved by the
legislature at its recent session, with
the proviso that it should be referred
to the electorate for final acceptance
or rejection. '
The annual cost of operating the
several institutions referred to by
Mrs. Kinney follows: Feeble-minded
home, $150,000; state hospital, $465,-
000; eastern Oregon state hospital,
$115,000; industrial school for -girls,
$25,000; state training school for
boys, $60,000; penitentiary, $150,000.
"The great mass of mental defec
tives Inherit their feeble-mindedness,"
said Mrs. Kinney in her argument.
"Sometimes defectives occur in
healthy, normal .families, but authorl--ties
agree that two-thirds of all
feeble-minded persons are victims of
bad heritage from their parents who
themselves are not well born. Every
feeble-minded person is a potential
criminal. . Unable to distinguish right
from wrong, they drift into crime or
pauperism."

CONGRESS FACES TASK
Test of Administration Declared
Coming When Session Begins
. to Outline Programme.
BY ROBERT T. SMALL.
(Copyright, 1021. by The Oresonian.) .
WASHINGTON, March 27. (Spe
cial.) -The real achievement of the
first three weeks of the Harding ad
ministration unmistakably has been
the creation of what may be called a
favorable atmosphere. The definite
and noteworthy acts of the adminis
tration have been ' few as yet, for
things have been more or less in a
settling down process, but there has
been a broad, human touch in all that
is gone at the White House, and it
has created a countrywide impression
which should prove one of Mr. Hard
ing's greatest assets in time of need.
There in every reason to believe
Mr. Harding will have the machinery
at his end of Pennsylvania avenue
working smoothly by the time con
gress comes to town two weeks from
tomorrow. What congress, with its
unwieldly republican majority in the
house and senate, will do after the
gavels fall at the capital remains to
be seen. Mr. Harding hopes that it
too will create a favorable atmos
phere, but the congress has not been
in a particularly happy frame of mind
the past two years, and with leader
ship unchanged, it will be interesting
to see how the shift from obstruction
to construction will be worked out.
Open Door Policy Liked.
A great deal of the favorable at
mosphere about the White House has
been due to the open door policy im
mediately started by President Hard
ing. The republican' congress will
have to create a favorable atmosphere
at the capital by reversing some of
its ways of transacting business.
Congress during the last two years
has gone on the theory that anything
favorable It might do would be cred
ited to the-Wilson administration, and
that by the same token its failures
would just as readily be set down by
the people as part and parcel of the
same regimt. The weight of influ
ence therefore was in favor of the
worA fall. All of this is about to be
changed however. Congress now be
comes an integral part of the Hard
ing administration, and so as the
president's own party controls the
legislative branch, the president will
have to stand or fall by the records
made on Capitol hill.
Harding Regarded as Chief.
The indications are that congress
In the near future will work as hard
to please Mr. Harding as it labored to
displease Mr. Wilson, and to draw the
fire of his frequent vetoes. Already
the new drift is noted. Leaders of
the house and senate have been in con
stant consultation with the president,
and have shown that they will look
to him for final decision in all mat
ters affecting ' the legislative pro
gramme., One of the lessons of his first three
weeks In the White House has left
Mr. Harding with the knowledge that
he is as supreme in the 'legislative
branch as in the executive. It is al
ways so when the White House and
the capitol are in the control of the
same political party. It is all very
well to talk. of IcttinT congress go its
own way, but it is never done until
an upset at the polls throws the en
tire congressional machinery out of
gear with the White House.
Test Yet To Come.
The real tests of the administration
as i whole are still to come. Thus
far Mr. Harding has encountered no
opposition and very little criticism.
The talk o" Colonel Gedrge Harvey as
ambassador to Loadon has not been
taken kindly in some quarters, but
otherwise it may be said no poisoned
speeches have been directed at the
White House. Mr. Harding has made
few appointments other than personal
ones, and he has been liked for his
loyalty to old friends. He has dis
cussed pci!ciA on many subjects and
dec.Sions point to a favorable atmos
phere. It was Inevitable that the open door
policy at the White House, as it has
been practiced since inauguration
day, should come to an end. There
was no surprise in the president's de-
cision to confine "open house" days to
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays,
so as to devote Tuesdays and Satur
days to work. He literally has seen
thousands of visitors during his three
weeks in effice, and it has almost
made a wreck of him. He has come
to wear the tired look which marked
the close of his last conferences at
Marion. '
In all fairness it must be said that
the cabinet has been doing its full
share in the creation of the adminis
tration's "favorable atmosphere," and
this is as Mr. Harding would have it.
Mr. Hughes has lent an amount of
'common sense to the state depart
ment. Mr. Hoover has been working
night and day at the department of
commerce. Mr.. Hayes has been Jump
ing about the postal service just as
he used to flit from place to place as
chairman of the republican national
committee. The energetic little postmaster-general
is never happier than
when h" is on the go. Mr. Denby be
lieves a secretary of the navy may
go to sea on a fifty-fifty basis with
his swivel washer in Washington. Mr.

"Passion" Coming Next
II
Daugherty has entertained Mr. Debs,
and has been digging night and day
into the records of the department of
justice to see just what should be
done to get the legal business of the
government completely straightened
out. The Debs incident was an in
dication of Mr. Daughertys direct
methods of doing business. Mr. Mel
lon has been running true to form as
a successful financier.
Davis Wins Praise.
Mr. Davis has had an early oppor
tunity to demonstrate that the de
partment of labor is a living, breath
ing, thinking branch, when such a
calamity as a packers' strike is
threatened, and he has won praise
from organized labor which a few
weeks ago was opposed to his ap
pointment. Mr. Wallace has been somewhat
quiescent, but when the farmers'
tariff bill comes up in congress he
will be found fighting for the man in
the fields with tooth and nail. Sen
ator Fall has slipped into the ways
of the interior department without a
sound of a splash. He knows the west
from end to end. Mr. Weeks has been
making speches as to the proper
methods of economy and efficiency
altogether. : .
Vice-President .Coolldge also has
been speechmaking, and here in
Washington he has developed with no
little surprise to himself into a real
social lion.
Taken altogether the administra
tion has had a nice little breathing
spell before getting started.
T ROW IT
authority: delegated away
from lane commissioner. '
Judge and Member of County
- Board Place Mr. Slurp's Work
In Hands of 3Ir. Harlow.
EUGENE, Or.', March 27. (Special.)
Differences tnat have existed over
the road construction and mainte
i.ance policy of the Lane county court
between County Judge Barnard and
County Commissioner Harlow on one
side and County Commissioner Sharp
on the other came to a climax yes
terday wh,en Judgre Barnard and Com
missioner Harlow signed an order
delegating authority to the latter to
have supervision over all road dis
tricts in the southern and western
parts of the county. This is Mr.
Sharp's district.
In the order it is stated that Com
missioner Sharp absolutely refuses to
assume responsibility for the work or
take supervision over the road dis
tricts in his territory. As it is held
to be necessary by the. other two
members of the court that someone
be held responsible for the expendi
ture of road money in those portions
of the county, they say Mr. Harlow
was delegated with such authority.
He will also have supervision over the
districts in the northern and eastern
parts of the county.
Commissioner Sharp, ever since he
assumed the office in January, has
refused to take part in the court's
road programme. It is customary for
the commissioner that is usually
elected from Cottage Grove to name
the road patrolmen for the districts
in the southern and western parts of
the county, but Commissioner Sharp
refused to do this and after waiting
until the last day allowed by law
the other members of the. court re
appointed the men who served in
120. Since then the new commis
sioner has refrained from co-operating
in any way. with the other mem
bers of the court in the matter of
road or bridge work of any kind.
Commissioner Sharp explained his
attitude in a reply to the order of the
court and which he has caused to be
spread upon the records. He said in
his written . statement that' he was
elected on a platform which called for
the elimination of the offices of
county roadmaster, county 'bridge
superintendent and county ' rock
crusher superintendent and in refus
ing to take part in the programme
of the other members of the court he
is carrying out his election promises
to the best of his ability. Commis
sioner Sharp advocated prior to the
election the plan of road and bridge
construction and maintenance under
the direct supervision of the county
commissioners, claiming that to elimi
nate the superintendents named the
county would save $10,000 and get
better roads and bridges for the
money.

ALMOST CHOKED
LAST NIGHT :
with gras around my heart. Couldn't
breathe, many people say.
No such choking or anxiety if you
will take Baalmann's Gas - Tablets,

pecially for all the bad effects from '
gas pressure against your most vital'
organ your heart.
That empty, rone and gnawing'
feeling at the pit of your stomach
will disappear, that anxious, nervous
feeling, with heart palpitation, will
vanish, and you will once more be
able to take a deep breath, so often
prevented by Gas pressing against
your heart and lungs. These unique .
Tablets are sold by all reliable
druggists and The Owl Drug Co. Be
careful and insist on the genuine
Baalmann's Gas-Tablets in a yellow
