provision with respect to a modification
t the existing law In favor of American

""On the contrary, Russian legislation of

WASHINGTON, Dec. , Branding
James B. and John J. McNamara as
'recreant to the good name and high
Ideal of labor," and expressing the
satisfaction of organised ' labor that the
'culprits have been commensuretely
punished for their crimes," the Mc
Namara ways and means committee of
he American Federation of Iobor, after
two days' conference here, late today
issued a statement vigorously condemn-
ng the McNamara for their "Inhu
manity" and declaring that organised
labor should not be held "either legally
or morally responsible for the crimes
of an Individual member."
The labor leadera assert that they will
'welcome any Investigation which either
federal or at ate court may undertake."
The statement I signed by every mem
ber of the McNamara committee except
F. ' M. Ityan, president of the Interna
tional Bridge and structural Iron
Workers' union. Mr. Ryan returned fJ
Indianapolis today.
Had he remained," raid President
Goinper positively, "I am sure Mr. Ryan
would bava added his name. He was
called back to Indianapolis by pressure
of business. He did not see the state
ment, but I am aure he I In hearty ac
cord with It sentiments."
Aa to their knowledge of the crime to
.hlch the McNamara confessed, the
commlttco In Its statement asserts:
We here and now, Individually and
collectively declare that the first knowl
edge or intimation of their guilt was con
veyed by the press In their confessions of
guilt.
Accounting of Fa nil.
"From the outset we assured nil con
tributors and the public generally that
we would publish an accounting of tho
moneys received, from whom received
and to whom pild. A report In full will
be .made, first to the executive council
of the American Federation of Labor at
Ita meeting to be held at Washington,
January s. 1D1Z"
Further than this Mr. Oompers would
say nothing In regard to the defense fund
money.
"Organized labor in America," the state
ment continues, "haa no desire to con
done the crimes of the McNamaras. It
Join in the aattsfactlon that the majesty
of the law haa been maintained and the
culprits commensurately punished for
their crime."
The statement continues:
"And yet It I an awful-commentary
on existing conditions when any one man
among all tha million of workors can
bring himself to the frame of mind that
the only mean to accura Justice for labor
la In. violence, .outrage and murder.
'It la cruelly unjust to hold the men
of tha labor movement either legally or
morally reaponalbla for the crime of an
Individual member.' No such moral code
or legal responsibility la placed upon any
other association of men In our country,
. Welcome lareatlaatlau.
"Insofar aa we have the right to speak,
in the name or organised labor, we wel
come any investigation which either fed.
erai or atate courts may undertake. The
session of the conventions of the Ameri
can' Federation of Labor are held with
open doora that all may see and hear
what la being aald and done. The books,
account and correspondence of tha fed
ration are open to any competent au
thortty, who may desire to make a atudy
or an investigation or them.
"The men of organised labor, In com
mon with ail our people." the committee
(firm, "aro grieved beyond expression
n worda at the loss of Ufa and the de
iiucuon vi property, not only In the
esse under discussion Jjt In any other
case which may have occurred. We are
hurt and humiliated to think Miat any
man connected with the labor movement
ahould have been guilty of either. The
icsaon -wis grave crime teaches, however
win neve its aalutary effect. It win
demonstrate now more than ever the ln-
numamty, aa well as the futility of re
sorting to violence In the effort to right
w run or to attain rights."
r nil no aerendlng the crime of 11..
McNamaras the committee denounced the
siunaping . or the McNamaras. who
they say were arrested In ltuslan style
iiui American. r
The method of arrest they find "iiii
anucu irregularity nd tyrannical law
lesane.a." and W. J. Hums, the detective
in me case, la aeverely criticised.
"' lauur properly expressed Ita
condemnation of violence on hearing of
in uoa Angelas disaster, It la claimed
. ... vuiiuwnnaiion or a nine.
deroua deed In labor circles ought to be
a fact so beyond question." the atatement
proceed, "no easily ascertainable fro.
accessible records that no man with any
regard for his reputation for'vcruclty
vuuiu utu; 11. loience, brutality, de
struction of life and property are foreign
to the alms and methods or nrt-i.-.i
labor In America and no Interest la more
aoveieiy injured oy tne employment of
such methods than that of the workera
organised In the labor movement.
"Therefore, quite apart from the anlrlt
01 numaniiananism and Justice which
prompts tha activities of the organised
labor movement, policy and hopes for
success forbid the resort to violence. The
labor movement and Its men are loval
Americana and aeek to obtain the aboli
tion of wrong and the attainment of
their lights within the law."'
The statement la signed by Samuel
Uompers. president of the federation and
chairman of the committee; Frank Mfu
rlson. secretary of the federatlun and of
tha committee, and of alx of the seven
remaining members of the committee.

been In a better lesgue.
He has managed clubs In Oklahoma
City of the Texas league and Hutchinson
and Topeka in tho old western associa
tion. Several years ago he played In St.
Joseph and Sioux City of this league.
It is probable that more stories have
been printed regarding the saylnga and
doings of Andrewa on the ball field than
of any other minor league ball player.
The announcement regarding Andrews
follows closely the purchase of Infielder
Soffel from the Hartford tConn.) club,
who Is expected to replace Barney Rellly,
