Gonipers Lauds Woodrow Wilson Union Chief Characterizes Kx-Prebident as "Friend of Laboring Man." New York, March 27. The ideals and principles of Woodrow Wilson in time will be recognized as spirits guiding the world, Samuel . Gompers president of the American Federa tion of Labor, told a gathering of laboring men and representatives of the Woodrow Wilson Foundation who met to discuss the plan to honor the former president. He characterized Mr. Wilson as "the firm friend of the laboring man," citing the seamen's act and the Clayton anti-trust law as in. stances of his efforts toward better ing the toilers' condition. Expressing disappointment that Mr. Wilson's admirers had not al ready over subscribed the $100,000 required for the endowment, Mr. Gompers said: "The American people and parti cularly the working people owe it to the country to see to it that this honor to Woodrow Wilson shall be successful. If there has ever been a man in responsible office in this country who had the understanding and the vision of labor's rights, it was Woodrow Wilson. "We are living today in the spirit of Wilson and .our efforts in the fu ture will be directed toward mobili zation of the public sentiment of this republic to his work, in order that his principles may become daily rules for the conduct of our lives." ' III! I Belgian Rulers in New Relation With Vatican Rome, March 27. Whether or not the coming visit to Italy of King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of Bel gium will lead to the engagement of Princess Yolpndo, daughter of King Victor Emmanuel and Queen Helena, to the duke of Brabant, heir to the Belgian throne, the visit is consid ered of great importance because it will mark a new stage in the rela tions between state and the Catholic church. The new conditions are ex pected to form the basis for the cere monial of future visits by Catholic rulers. Pope Pius had decided that the call of the Belgian sovereigns at the Vat ican must take place -immediately on their arrival in Rome and before any official functions take place. No objections have been made by the Italian court. Heretofore non-Catholic sovereigns went to the Vatican in carriages sup-, plied by the embassy of their coun try. President Wilson, in January, 1919, adopted this custom. Pope Pius has ordered Vatican automo biles to take the queen of the Bel gians to the Vatican. A few years ago the Vatican had no automobiles and ecclesisastics were forbidden to use them. Some time ago Cardinal Vincenzo Vanutelli received a beau tiful machine, painted a bright red, from American friends and induced the pope to withdraw his ban, on the automobile.

Reason for Pleading Guilty to Embezzlement. The defense of 'Thomas IT Mat ters, on trial for aiding and abetting embezzlement, reached a climax yesterday afternoon when Ed r. Smith, former mayor, was called to the stand. -. W. C. Dorsey, prosecutor for the state, objected to cstlrnony by- Mr. Smith, who was counsel for Willard V. Mathews when Mathews pleaded guilty to embezzlement of $200,000 from the Tioneer State bank in con nection w'ith the purchase of Colonial Timber & Coal corporation bonds. Judge Dismisses Jury. ' Dorsey's objection 'precipitated a clash with Halleck Rose, counsel for Matters, which ended with the ex clamation by . Dotsey; "You can't intimidate inc. isl. Siose!'. District Judge Goss .dismissed "the jury dur ing the ensuing arguments over tliS admission of Mr. Smith's testimony, Mr. Rose indicated he intended to show by Mr. Smith's testimony that Mathews' plea of guilty was the re sult of assurances that an indictment against Walter L. Stickel would be dismissed. He asserted that the "hardest evidence against Matters is Mathews plea of guilty." Smith AnswersjTw Questions. ' Judge Goss held that the defense could not "impeach Mathews' plea of guilty by endeavoring to show Mathews purpo.se in making the pie;'! ..He permitted Mr. Smith to answer two preliminary questions before the jury, however. In response to these qucstidr.s Mr. Smith said he had communicated with the attorney general before Mathews entered, this, plea of guilty.
