Gompers Attacked By Blan
- ten For Opposition And De
, parteent Of Labor Said To
ge Nest Of "Anarchy."
Washington, Jan. 84. Enactment
of anti-sedition legislation was urged
before the house rules committee to
day by Representative smiuun, u
ocat, Texas, and Davey. 'democrat,
Ohio. The Texas member vigorously
attacked President Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor for his
opposition to such legislation and
charged that the department of la
bor was "honeycombed with anarchy"
Asserting that Mr. Gompers had
not been patriotic during the war, Mr.
Blanton charged that when Provost
Marshal General Crowder issued his
'work or fight" order the labor lead
er openly opposed It, declaring he
"would call a revolution." Blanton
added that six thousand strikes occur
red In this country during the war
and that at times President Wilson
had to "compel men to work."
"Congress must either pass a sedi
tion law which would squelch anar
chy or else bear the mark of having
- bowed to Gompers," , Mr. Blanton
i aaid. He added "it is simply a ques
' Hon of whether you want to be re
. elected." .
"Attacking the department of labor,
Blanton said he hoped the republicans
would be victorious in .the coming
presidential election "if -it is impossi
ble to obtain a democratic cabinet of
ficer who stands for Americanism."
"The republicans will win any way"
Chairman Campbell interjected.
"Not If you vacillate on this bill,"
Representative Blanton retorted. 'The
people won't stand for you bowing to
Gompers." , .
Representative Davey, who introduc
ed Attorney General Palmer's antl-se-dition
bill last November, told the
committee he was a "friend of labor
until It Joins hands with ranarchy."
Davey criticized the American Fed
eration of Labor for participation In
the Boston poltee-'strtkeT but said Mr.
Gompers was the dominant influence
which stood between organized labor
anj anarchy.

"The morale at the prison has never
been excelled as far as my knowledge
of the Institution goes. The men are
all at work and are going at their
work apparently contentedly and in
good spirit. To find worlt for these
men when practically none was pro
vided for by law or legislative appro
priation was one of the most diffi
cult tasks which faced Dr. Steiner
and one which he carried out amazing
ly well.
Dr. Steiner has established what, as
far as I know. Is the first successful
wood camp that has been operated In
connection with the prison. This is
near Aumsville and splendid work is
being done there.
"I am decidedly proud of the re
sults obtained and it Is a pleasure for
me to be able to say that Dr. Stein

have been of wonderful value to the
state.
"Louis H. Compton, who will be
come warden to succeed Dr. Slelner,
has been state parole officer through
out Dr. Steiner's incumbency and has
made a careful study of Dr. Steiner's
methods and is entirely familiar with
the plans which Dr. Steiner has been
maturing for the future of the In

the wardenship with the idea of fol

GO-BETWEEN
FOR BRITISH
Senator Reed Declares For
mer Food Administrator So
Close To London Powers
As To Be Connecting Link.
W ashington, Jan. 24-Charging that
Herbert Hoover was "one of the go
between of Colonel House and mem
bers high in the British government
during the negotiations preceding the
entry of the United States into the
war," Senaor Reed, democrat, Missou
ri, launched a vigorous attack today In
the stnate against what he
ised as Mr. Hoover's "semi-promoted
boom for president."
Senator Reed said Mr. Hoover .
sa close to the British government that
"he constituted a convenient connect
ing link" and challenged any member
of the senate who doubted his state
menu o introduce a resolution of In
vestigation. '
Sever Voted Here.
Declaring that Mr. Hoover "served
a tutelage all of his adult life" in the
British service, Senator Reed said
Hoover "never cast a vote in the Un
ited States, 'unless he had voted since
this war to qualify himself."
"When he was asked as to what
party he belonged he said he thought
he was a 'liberal' " said Senator Reed.
"Apparently he hasn't been in the
United States enough to know the
names of the political parties in this
country and has to designate himself
as a 'lfberal', a British political or
ganization." "I think Mr. Hoover's nomination
would put the finishing touch to the
League of Nations and that :the
league would surrender the sovereign
ty of the world to the British em
pire," the senator continued.
, Would Give Control.
"In addition to her own votes Great
Britain would control the votes of
Portugal, Freece, France and Belgium
In the league, Senator Reed said, ad
ding that Belgium "was in no con
dition to resist Great Britain's im
perious will" and that France, accord
ing to high French officials, had ad
mitted that she was dependent on
the British army and navy for pro
tection against German attack.
Senator Reed said that if a Brit
ish controlled League of Nations were
to be established, this country ought
to have as nearly a British sublect as
possible to represent It "so why not
Mr. Hoover."
Referring to reports that Mr.
Hoover made $10,000,000 before he
was 30 years old. Senator Reed said
he was a "get rich quick" and turn
ing to Senator Lodge, the republican
leader, declared that If Mr. Hoover
were nominated for the presxiemiy
the only thing that could save the
republican party from defeat was for
it "to nominate J. Rufus Walllngford"
"Then we'll have two horses bred
alike," he added.
MONDELL OPPOSES
FOOD RELIEF BILL
BEFORE COlinEE
Washington, .Jan. 24. Opposition
to the proposed $150,000,000 food re
lief loan to Austria, Poland and Ar
menia and to an appropriation of $1,
000,000 for additional army airplanes
was expressed In the house today by
Representative Mondell, the republi
can leader, who replied to charges by
Representative Kitchin, of North Car
olina, former democratic leader, that
the republican steering committee
had blocked the relief bill before the
ways and means committee.
Sareful consideration should be
given before "taking the moneys of
the people to provide funds for Eu
rope," Mr. Mondell said, adding that
not all the sob stories about Europe
were to be believed.
Referring to his opposition to the
aeroplane appropriation, the republi
can leader said some one had said
Great Britain was expending $35,
000,000 on her air service.
"If England can do that," he said,
"then a resolution ought to be pass
ed by congress compelling her to pay
interest on her debt to the United
States."

The Hague, Jan. 23. While there
may be a future exchange of notes with
reference to th allied demand for sur
render of the former German emperor,
the government of the Netherlands is
declard inclined to the belief that Its
decision will be considered as final.
,The Dutch press does not expect any
belligerent action by the allied powers
and the government la believed to
share this view on theory that the de
mand for the former monarch's extra
dition was made merely to satisfy some
political clamor in the allied states and
was not intended to be pressed by the
statesmen who signed it.
The reference to the league of na
tions In the reply to the entente was
explained to the correspondent today
by a high official as meaning that Hol
land considers the former emperors
case beyond even the power of the
league of nations tribunal ,as no lea
gue law covering his case was in effect
at the time his alleged crimes were
committed.
As far as the Dutch government
knows, the former emperor expects to
stay at Amerongen and. Doom, and the
former crown prince, who was not
mentioned In the allied note, shows no
sign of an Intention to leave his refuge
on the Island of Wlerlngen.
