Better Methods
- NEW ORLEANS, Not. , 20
(AP) Union of. labor nd the le
gion to support legislation to pre
vent war was urged today by Paul
V. McNutt, national commander, of
the American Legion, in an ad
dress before the annual conventon
of the Amercan Federaton of La
bor. "Shoulder to shoulder, labor
and the legion can to this service
together for our country,'1 he ex
claimed amid applause from the
labor leaders.
Appealing for labor support for
universal draft legislation backed
by the legion, McNutt said it
would be a "service for all, creat
ing an equal responsibility in cit
izenship, eliminating the slacker,
elimjihating privilege, profit and
plunder when the emergency
arises."
War Irofitcers
Roundly Criticized
Declaring that at the close of
the world war "a new million
aire's mansion could be checked
against every white cross and star
on the battlefields," he asserted
that the legion was convinced that
the "greatest insurance for per
manent peace is the taking of pro
fit out of war."
Commander McNutt declared
that a "better method than war
must be found for settling inter
national disputes. Such a method
must be practical and must be ac
cepted by all nations. Until such
a method is found and accepted
this nation must provide an de
quate defense.
"We of the legion who have ex
perienced the horrors of unpre
paredness in war have in our
hearts but one reason for dtmand
ing an adequate protection for our
country. That reason la peace."
"We are preparing for war be
cause that is what the army ex
ists for. If war comes that war
is the. -country's .war .and-not the
army's war. The army is merely
the weapon of the country in en
forcing its will."

Right to Water
At Breitenbush
Being Disputed
Testimony was taken by the
state engineer here Tuesday on
the application of Mark S. Sk'.ff for
permission to appropriate water
from the Breitenbush Hot Springs
for medicinal and bathing pur
poses. The application was opposed by
the Breitenbush Mineral Springs
company, F. A. Bruckman and
Bruckman and Joseph M. Healey.
It was alleged that the water was
not subject to appropriation for
the reason that the entire flow of
the springs is now used by the
Breitenbush Mineral Springs com
pany. An engineer for the engineering
department reported adversely to
the application.

CAUSTIC CRITICISM
British Foreign Secretary to
be Greeted by Opponents
in Entjland
LONDON. Nov. 20. (AP)
Sir Austin Chamberlain, British
foreign secretary, who sailed from
Quebec for England on Saturday
probably will need all the health
restored him by California sun
shine and bracing Canadian
breezes to weather the criticism
awaiting him in Great Britain be
cause of his part in the abortive
Anglo-French naval pact.
The pact itself is dead, parlia
ment buried it with a formal de
bate on November 13 but its mem
ory remains as one of the most
crushing blows to recent British
diplomacy. The ghost of the fias
co may haunt Sir Austen through
out his political career, and his
return to the foreign office may
signal a new attack upon the
Stanley Baldwin government.
Sir Austen is certain to be
called upon for his story of the
pact negotiations. A question in
the House of Commons can revive
the issue any time, and with a
general . election coming, labor
and liberal opposition will use ev
ery opportunity for criticism of
the conduct of foreign affairs by
Mr. Baldwin's colleagues.

CREW OF VESTRIS
DESCRIBES LEAKS
Saloon Mate and Waiter Tell
How No Attention Paid
to Conditions
NEW YORK, Nov. 20. (AP)
A saloon mate and a waiter from
the crew of the steamer Vestris
terrified today at the federal in
qui:y into the sinking of the ship
with the loss of more than 100
lives, that It always leaked at
ports and dcors when there was
heavy weather and that nothing
was ever done about stopping the
flow of water.
Previous witnesses have testi
fied that on its last trip, sea water
poured into the Vestris through
these ports and doors so fast that
the combined efforts of the steam
pumps and bucket brigades of sea-
jmen could not keep up with it.
The testimony of the saloon
mate and waiter came only an
hour or two after two inspectors
of the United States steamboat
inspections service of the depart
ment of commerce had testified at
a separate inquiry going forward
in the Customs House that they
had inspected the Vestris a few
days before it sailed and found it
sea worthy in all respects.
The inspector of hulls mention
ed in particular the ports and
doors through which other per
sons say the sea poured in
streams, and said he had found
them fit.
. One of today's witnesses who
told of the leakage, which both
asserted occurred whenever the
ship' struck a storm,, said he had
reported, the defects in writing,
telling the land officials of the
line that the ports and doors need
ed to be re-rubbered. The other
said he had made no reports as
the leaks were a matter of com
mon knowledge. Both said that
no repairs had been made prior to
the last voyage of the Vestris.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.
(AP) The attempt of Senator
Borah of Idaho to collect funds by
voluntary subscription to pay back
the $160,000 contribution of Har
ry F. Sinclair to the republican
campaign deficit of 1920, was de
finitely abandoned today, and the
Senator began returning about
$8,000 so far received.
Senator Borah, who took a lead
ing role in the recent campaign of
Herbert Hoover, said however, he
had not abandoned the idea of
"purging" the Sinclair contribu
tion from the party. The sugges
tion has been made that the pros
Dectlve campaign surplus of the
party for this year be applied to
paying off Sinclair's contribution.
The senator seems to be agreeable
to this prosposal.
The return of the $8,000 is
proving quite a task for the Ida
hoan. He received these contribu
tions during the last year from
about 340 persons. Records were
kent and the money deposited in
a bank. Added what he was doing
with the interest collected on tne
money, the senator smiled and
replied.
"I can say I am not charging
anything for my services."

(AP) Additional charges of
maladministration were laid
against the federal Indian bureau
today during the second meeting
of the senatorial committee which
is investigating the alleged mis
treatment of the California In
dians.. Witnesses supported the testi
mony given at yesterday's hear
ing that the Indians were "liv
ing like animals on the edges of
forests and desert and on the
verge of starvation."
Mrs. Daniel E. Robertson, for
mer matron of the Tuma Indian

dairy cows on the reservation but
that none of the milk was ever
given to the Indian children.
"It was fed to the hogs," she
asserted.

of the Universi- of California and
Mrs. Sanford testified to what
they called "a typical case" while
they were motoring in the Nav
ajo reservation last summer, Mrs.
Sanford eaw an Indian woman
give birth to a child under dis
tressing circumstances in a shack
without medical aid, she testified.
Before they could get the reserva
tion physician to aid the woman
both she and the baby died, Mrs.
Sanford said.
Stephen Knight and William
Benson, Indians from Ukiah, said
that their people in the north
western part of the state were im
poverished, that much of the land
given them was unfit for agricul
ture that they lived in hovels
without floors, that they had dif
ficulty in getting work and that
there was no money for the old
people of the tribe.
