CHARGE Oi SOCIALISTIC
PROPAGANDA IN TRADE
iOARD I1AIS IS MADE
, I I
Full Investigation Demanded
By Senator Watson In
Resolution Today
.it' -
Washington, Oct. 20.Investigation of charges that
employes of the federal trade commission are engaged in
"socialistic propaganda" is called for in a resolution in
troduced by Senator Watson, Indiana, today.
Watson accompanied his resolution j it only to call attention briefly to the
with tho statement that he is not asking
this investigation in an effort, to aid
the "big five" packers, who have hen
under fire from the federal trade com
mission. He said he was seeking to
learn the truth of statements that mem
bers of the commission were engaged iu
socialistic activities.
The text'of the resolution follows:
"Whereas, there is ready to believo
that a number of the employes of tho
federal trade commission havo been and
now aro engaged in soeialisfic propa
ganda and in furthering the organiza
tion and growth of socialistic organiza
tions; and
"Whereas, if bolshevism with all that
it implies is to be met and overcome iii
our country, it must be done by first
ousting all its adherents and advocates
from public office; therefore, be it
"Resolved, in the senate of tho tfni
ted States, that the committee on inter
state commerce of the senate is hereby
authorized and directed bv sub-committee
or otherwise, to inquire into and
rejWl to the state at the earliest prac
tical date upon the truth of these
charges, that said committee may con
duct such inquiry, by. sub-committee or
otherwise and shall be empowered to
hold sessions during tho recess of the
senate and for this purpose the commit
tee of any sub-committee thereof is em
powered to scud for persons and papers,
to employ whatever assistance, either
clerical or legal, -they deem necessary
to aid in conducting the investigation,
to administer oaths, to summon and com
pel the attendance of witnesses, to con
duct hearings and have reports of the
same printed for use; and any expense
in connection wfih such inquiry shall
be paid out of tho contingent fund of
the senate upon vouchers to be ap
proved by the chairman of tho commit
tee" In a speech accompanying this reso
lution, Watson declared ho is "astound
ed at tho number of adherents to social
ism holding government office." He at
tacked tho federal trade commission's-
method, of investigating thopackers.
"What I say ia support of this reso
lution is in no wise a defense of, the
packers," Watson continued. "Their
activities are being investigated by an
other committee of this body. I mention
STATUS OF OLCOTT
AS GOVERNOR ONCE
IE UP TO
The staf us of Ben W. Olcott as gov
ernor of Oregon has again been brought
into the limelight in a letter by Sam A.
Kozer, deputy secretary of state, to at
torney General Brown asking for an
opinion as to whether provision should
be made for including the office of gov
ernor of Oregon as ono of the offices
to be voted upon at the 1920 election.
Kozer 's interest in tho matter is
prompted by tho approach, of tho time
when his office must begin preparations
of the necessary blanks and ballot forms
for the coming primary election next
May, these including official certifica
tion to the county clerks or tho variqus
otficcs to be filled at such election.
Aitiiouun tno supreme court, stter a
lengthy deliberation, ruled on the status
of the govornship in an opinion handed
down early last June there was no pre
dominating opinion bearing on tho
length of Olcott 's term as executive and
the problem, therefore, has been as per
plexing since the rendition of the opin
ion as it was before. -At
that time three members of the
supreme court Justices McBridc, Bean
and Johns declared, unqualified that
Olcott was governor in fact to serve out
the remainder of the unexpired term of
the-latc Governor Withycombe. Justice
Bennett, although refusing to express
any opinion on this pbaso of the ques
tion, because he claimed it was not prop
erly before the court, did say that if he
should don his oficial robes and giv?
utterance to his "half baked street opin
ions" he would acre -with Chief Justice

socialistic activities of some of the mem
bers of the federal trade commission
who were chosen to investigate the op
eration of these corporations.
"My theory is that, no matter what
businoss is subjected to investigation
by the federal trade commission, it is
entitled to fair and decent treatment.
Tho agents of tho .government should
be sent out to investigate and not to
persecute. They should imparinlly col
lect the facts and transmit them to the
fedoral trade commission in order-that
that body may como to just conclusions
concerning the questions involved. But
in these cases, that courso has not al
ways been pnrsutd." .....
Senator Hitchcock asked Watson if
he meant to infer that employes were
advocating socialism as part of their
official duties.
"Only in a private, capacity," Wat
son explained. Hitchcock then attacked
the language of Watson's resolution,
declaring Watson appeared to confuse
bolshcvism and socialism.
.' Watson read a list of the commission's
employes who worked on tho packer in
vestigation. "Allf these employes are not social
ists nor have they been involved in so
cialistic activities, bnt some of them
have been to a most amazing degree,"
ho said.

In aspcecli before the business. men
at their regular noonday luncheon to
day, City Superintendent bf Schools
John W. Todd declared that a disband
ment of the public school system in
this city is threatened unless teachers
salary us raised. He said that the school
board has found it necessary to re-es
tablish the system here four times be
cause of this failure of tho people to
keep teachers, and he sounded a warn
ing prediction that tho same will occur
this spring unless steps are taken to
prevent it.
That practical learning ds fast tak
ing the place of "theoretical studies'
in schools, and that children are more
eager to attend school betau.se of this
fact, was stated by Mr. Todd. Great
emphasis is being given to tho teach
ing of the "three K's , he sand, in
Salem's 'city schools.
Superintendent Todd lauded tho
boari of directors. He said that he
hoped the city would "maintain such
men on the board, arthcy have abso
lutely no axe to grind." The body ia
purged of all personal conquests and
politics, he declared.
Briefly Mr. Todd recounted the activ
ities of the school authorities fin the
itr. He told of the interest shown by
girls in the much improved domestic
science work, and declared that their
cafeteria system was a profitable un
dertaking. The work being carried on
by the carpenter class was also ex
plained by the superintendent. :
Prophesying that "a bomb will ex
plode" in Salem soon. Mr. Todd assert
ed that something must be done to al
leviate the shortage of rooms in the
Washington junior school, and in the
grant and Lincoln schools. The only
togieal solution of this serious problem
nw, he told the business men, wag to
remove some of the classes to less con
gested schools. In doing this, he said,
criticism Ss sure to come. And he ex
pressed the hope that the people would
realize the situation, and know that
this must be done.
Three classes are being taken up in
night-school, he said. They are: me
chanical shop, mechanical drawing and
-shop drawing. A big attendance at this
school is anticipated, he naid.

Washington, Oct, 20. "The pcndmff

Corporation, in a spoech today boforo

Gary's statement follows,: .. ,. , -r

any vote I may register will probably
be unnecessary. . . . , :,,..".' '
' ' Like other members' of the confer-,

"I. .am- heartily in accord, with th
desire of the president to firmly estab-,

between ull groups of citizens connoeted
with industry, including, Of course, what
has been designated as capital and la
bor. . . . .
"I beliove In conciliation, coopera
tion and 'arbitration whenever practica
ble without sacrificing principle.
"I nm of the fixed ODinion that tft

subjeft,. " " " ; .'."''-V.T!' " " . ;
"Also that there shsulrt be maintain- .

namely, that every man whether be doe
or does not belong to a labor union shall
havo the opportunity to engage in any
line nt legitimate employment on terms
and conditions agroed upon between em
ploye and employer. , ' v-
"I am opposed to a policy or practiea
which unnecessarily limits production,
increses costs, deprives the workman
from receiving the highest wage rates
resulting from voluntary and reasonable
effort, hinders promotion or advance
ment in accordance with merit, or other
wise interfers with the f reodom of in
dividual action. '
"As unorganized labor, which em
braces tllo vast majority of working pen
pie, has no special representation in this
conference, I deem it appropriate to say
that all labor should receive due con
sideration and that it is the obligation,
and ought to be thlt pleasure of employ
ers at all times and in every respect to
treat justly and liberally all employe
whether unorganized or organised."
