SEED WILL REMAIN
TO WATCH STRIKE
Willis Reed Says It Will Amount
to Treason for Defendants
to Violate Restrain
ing Order.
Attorney General Reed, who on
behalf of the state of Nebraska inter
vened to put a stop to the Omaha
strike, will remain here to see that
the court order is carried out. He will
personally represent the state at the
hearing, set for June 27, before Judge
Leslie of district court.
The state's action in the strike
situation is the first of its kind in the
history of th United States, accord
ing to the attorney general, tie sain
lie could recall no similar action
where a state has intervened to halt
both narties of a strike.
"If the condition of affairs prior to
the issuance of the restraining order
could exist under the law, then it
must be admitted that civil govern
ment is a failure," said the attorney
gaeral.
Man Has Right to Work.
"No laboring man should be denied
the right to earn his bread by the
sweat of his brow. Any government
that tolerates it, or public officials
who wink at or hesitate to enforce
the law, are entitled to no place in
our human society.
"The law is adequate and I intend
to use every means within the law to
restore, and, if possible, better con
ditions between labor and capital and
the public than those which existed
prior to the present strike or lock
out. - Violation May Be Treason.
"Should either side attempt to vio
late the restraining order issued by
Judge Leslie they may find to their
sorrow that the federal and state gov
ernments will at once proceed against
such individuals for treason against
the state and the federal government,
because, in effect, it would be lending
aid and comfort to our enemies and
will not be tolerated.
"Since the order was issued and
many of the defendants served, labor
ing men and members of unions have
expressed their approval and satis-

Entry of United States Into
, War is Cause of Confusion
(Csrrespondenc. of The Aseoatatcd Press.)
Bristol, England, June 5-Nothirig
since the beginning of war so stirred
Bristol and surrounding country as
the decision of the government, that
owing to the entry of the United
States into the war it was no longer
necessary to proceed with the erec
tion of the large explosives factory
under construction at Henbury, near
here. Nearly $500,000 had been spent
and thousands of workmen had been
engaged far weeks in constructing
the factory which was to have been
one of the largest in England,
The order to abandon work came
like a bolt out of the blue. Owing to
the great extent of the factory, the
order resulted in much contusion.
Some of the contractora who had offi
cial intimation of the government's
decision ..eased work, while others,
not having received instrurtions, pro
ceeded blindly with their work. The
result was that while others were
busy with the work of construction,
another grounp was as industriously
demolishing those pertly built. This
choatic condition proceeded for a
week.
Man Who Has Charge of Roads
Responsible for British Success
(Correspondence ot The Assootated Press,)
Behind the British Lines in France,
June 5. A considerable share in the
success and rapidity with which the
British armies were able this spring
to follow up the Gcnians as they fell
back from the Somme and Arras bat-
tlefields is officially attributed to the
building by the British of innumera
ble military roads which have been
completed on the heels of the German
'retreat.
The officer principally responsible
for maintaining this branch of com
munications, under the direction of
Sir Eric Geddes, deputy director gen
eral of munitions supply, is Brigadier
General H. P. Maybury, whose officia
title is manager and chief engineer of
the army roads board. He is in com- i
mand of an army of road makers re
cruited froiu towns and villages in
Great Britain, where they were en
gaged in similar work. Their number
now runs well into five figures. These
men, although almost without regular
army training, are all organized in
regiments with officers on the regular
army model, and are equipped with
modern plants and the best material.
In Bsrlin Old Clothing is
Bought by City and Resold
(Correspondence of Tho Associated Press.)
Stockholm,' Sweden,' June 5. Oh
ing to the scarcity of clothing ma
terial in Germany, the principal com
munes of Greater Berlin have in
, augurated an intercommunat clothing
' center, where old and worn clothing
and footgear is bought by official ap
praisers. These are renovated and re
sold at the lowest possible figure, and
it is possible to purchase a suit of
men's clothes for from $3 to $5. More
than '50,000 articles have been col
lected and renovated. ' . '
of their food imports. We should be
able to supply 60 per cent of what
they require. The other 40 per cent
must he made up by further denial on
their part and saving on ours. We
can increase our surplus. The situa
tion for them next year means in
creased privation. Without an ade
quate food supply, no European popu
lation will continue to tight and we
shall find ourselves alone against Ger
many.
The Russian revolution was a food
riot and even yet that ally is tempor
arily paralyzed. Responsibility rests
on our government tor latlure of de
mocracy through a shortage of food."
Speculation is Rampant.
Turning to domestic conditions Mr.
Hoover said this country had been
experiencing unprecedented prices
and rampant speculation," citing how
middlemen and all other persons in
the distribution processes have been
purchasing increasing supplies to
avert individual shortages.
Mr. Hoover cited the canning trade
as an example where the entire out
put of vegetablei and fish for 1917 has
been disposed of already, before it has
even reached the canners. He pre-
aictea lurtner nign prices.
Thousands of men, he said, who
heretofore have never owned a dol
lar's worth of foodstuff, are now
speculating in necessities.
Bread Costa Less in England.
"The average prices to the consum
ers in countries where food adminis
tration is now in effect are lower than
those now prevailing in the United
States," he said. "In England the
Erice of bread is even 25 per cent
elow the price we pay.
"I believe that unless some ad
ministration of our food is taken we
will look uack at these prices as being
moderate."
Mr. Hoover denied that the bill
establishes a food dictatorship. He
characterized the purpose of food ad
ministration aa to mobilize the people
in order to carry out the advice given
them by the government officials and
to decentralize the functions of the
administration in order to centralize
the functions of the food administra
tion into the various states.
A commission to take charge of
production and distribution of flour,
sugar and possibly a few other prin
cipal commodities, Mr. Hoover said,
is being contemplated. '
Stable Prices Important.
"Provisions for the government to
buy and sell commodities will be
necessary for use only as to a few
prime commodities," he said. "The
aim is to stabilize prices and thus
eliminate speculation. The balance
wheel for stabilizing prices is cone.
We need an artificial balance wheel.
By setting up a wheat commission we
can buy wheat, regulate its storage
and transportation and handle it un
til exported or sold in this country.
If we do not do this wheat prices may
relapse on account of our not beina-
able to store and carry it, with specu
lators securing the sole benefit and
farmers bearing the loss."
Sugar and Flour,
"We 'tan contract tomorrow with
the allies for a certain return for
every bushel of wheat we can sell.
By controling prices at interior ter
minals we can assure millers their
supplies , and simplify transporta
As to sugar. Mr. Hoover said
American refiners are competing with
the allies in Cuba, and that the pro
posed sugar commission could co
operate with the allied purchasers, the
American rehners and Cuban produc
ers, stabilizing and reducing prices, as
wen as removing speculative incentives.
The proposed anDronriatioii of
$150,000,000 for government purchase
of commodities, Mr. Hoover Said,
might prove too small, but is needed
for banking facilities.
"We feel confident consumers
nrices of suarar and flour will be re
duced, as well as others, through our
co-operation with leaders ot otner
trades," he said. "We must have
power to license grain elevators so
that they may play their part in the
team work ot he government.
Questions by Gore.
Chairman Gore of the agricultural
committee and Senator Reed of Mis
souri, leading the opposition to the
bill, took a leading part in question
iiicr Mr. Hoover.
"The resort to these extraordinary
powers is only because of the warr
asked Senator Gore.
"To provide not only more food for
the allies, but for ourselves," Mr.
Hoover replied. "Even if we had not
gotten into the war we would have
been up against tins tremendous de
mand from Europe and probably
driven to some legislation to protect
our own people. .
Mr. Hoover expnssly disclaimed
authorship, personal interest or re
sponsibility for the bill's provisions
extending to fuels, declaring he was
only interested in food.
The provisions for commandeering
lactones, mines and other plants, he
aude I, wou.u not be necessary in ad
ministering food Questions.
Senator Reed referred to a section,
which he contended would permit the
government to take from cribs and
bins grain stored there in excess of
the amount actually needed by the
farmer and asked Mr. Hoover's
opinion regarding the enforcement.
"As far as I am concerned, I would
not attempt to execute it as far as
the present situation appears, replied
Mr. Hoover,
Mr. Hoover also said the food ad
ministration had no desire of regulat
ing consumption of food as is being
done abroad, saying that would be left
to the voluntary will of the people.
Senator Gore asked Mr. Hoover
if he would deny to the farmer the
right t! judge the amount of crops
he should grow.
'If the government guarantees a
minimum price, Mr. Hoover replied,
"we might not get the beneficial re
sult for the farmer unless we also
have the power to limit imports."
Mr. Hoover said "possibly" the bill
should be 'amended to give farmers
the right to determine their own
production.
"We don't propose to go to the
extent of fixing consumers' rations,"
Mr. Hoover added, "except as to
hotels, restaurants, etc., regarding
the amount of bread portions to be
served and the like. England did a
foolish thing in trying to fix maxi
mum prices, a failure wherever tried.
"Do you contend that under the
bill you can say to Senator Reed, for
instance, that he shall eat a soup bone
or a steak on certain days?" asked
Senator Kenyon.
"I don't think we have any such
right nor should we have it," Mr.
Hoover replied emphatically. "But
we should have the right to suggest
the use of a soup bone a day and see
if we can reach any agreement volun
tarily.
Senator Reed insisted that legis
lation is not needed to effect such
voluntary arrangements, but Mr.
Hoover said a law should authorize
the food administration to that end.
Two of the Airmen of
Japan Fall to Their Death
(Correspondence of Tho Auoolatod Proii.)
Tokio, June 5. Progress of avia
tion in Japan has again beeen attended
with tragedy. Recently two men lost
their lives by the fall of a machine
one Prof. Seitaro Tamai, of the Nip
pon Flying school, and the other,
Reizo Yukawa, a photographer on the
staff of the Nichi-Nichi, who had been
taken up as passenger.
Prof. Tamai was a capable aviator
and had made several previous flights
near Tokio, with passengers, on one
occasion having successfully looped
the loop. But when he ascended with
the photographer, connecting wires
broke and the aeroplane crashed to
the ground. The peroleum tank ex-
Sloded, and the two men, already
adly injured, were suffocated and
charred in the flames.
REVENUE RECEIPTS
PASS BILLION MARK
Ordinary Payments Into Ted
eral Treasury Beach This
Sum for First Time in
Nation's History.
Washington, June 19. For the first
time in American history ordinary re-
ceipts of the treasury have passed
the billion dollar mark in a fiscal
year.
The great sum has been anticiDated
however, in the plan for raising war
revenues and it does not alter the ad
ministration plans for taxation, as all
the available money from all sources
will be needed.
Up to todav the total was $1.015..
381,817 as compared with $660,400,
953 a year ago today, an increase of
approximately $355,000,000.
The bulk of the huge increase is
due to increased income taxes and
earlier payments. A total of $294.
966,278 has been collected thus far
this fiscal year.
The next largest item is from other
internal revenue totalling approxi
mately $425,000,000, an increase of
about $60,000,000 over last year.
Customs receipts show a total thus
tar ot $217,574,408, an increase of ap
proximately $14,200,000.
During the last twentv-four hours
approximately $41,500,00 was received
at the treasury, the lamest dav of the
year inus lar.

After the session had ariirmrneH
Attorney Bigelow halted Chairman
Cowell at the door and told him that
he had no authority to adjourn the
hearing as he or the other members
had not heard directly from Governor

Chairman Cowell called the board
together again and the hearing continued.

Attorney Bigelow tl.en raised the
question that George Norman, deputy

the board, had not been permitted to
vote and that the adinurnmenr nn
that ground was also out of order.
Chairman Cowell gave in a little,
following a heated discussion by At
torney Bigelow in which the sertinne
of the law dealing with the powers
ana amies ot tne board thoroughly
had been threshed over.
Lpon a tie vote, Mr. Cowell ad
journed the hearinir until 10 n'rlnrlr
Wednesday morning, at which time
Governor Neville orobahlv will arf.

Attorney Brogan, representing the
employers, contended that the in
junction hearing set bv Judo-u I.1i
June 27 would be a much broader and
wwer investigation than that of the
board, and as a result the hmrrf
should adjourn until court action.
The opposite viewpoint was taken
by Attorney Bigelow, representing
the employes. He said:
A court action would not stoo the
controversy as to wages and the like.
We want a thorough investigation
into the whole matte' so that we can
get down to the bottom of the trou
ble and let the people know who is
to blame. The light shed at the hear
ing will help the court to make a
luucr investigation.
Cowell for Further Probe.
Robert Cowell, chairman of the
mediation board, held that in his
opinion the board should not adjourn
pending court action, but should be
gin at once with the investigation.

"Ultimately the courts will have
to settle the case. All we can do is
recommend. I believe that the case
will be settled by the court, which
would leave us out As a member of
the board I would prefer that the in

T. P. Reynolds, president of Cen

the investigation should continue.
"We have no mandatory power and
therefore cannot compel as the courts.
The trade unions are in favor of see
ing the thing through, so why should
the employers object to the hearing."
The court order came as a great

what to say about it and am unable
to discuss the matter at present," At

"There is this, however, we will

To Be Heard June 27.
Judge Leslie signed an order set
ting the case for hearing June 27.
Supporting the petition are numerous
affidavits telling of acts of intimida
tion by which workers have been
urged to join unions and prevented
from going about their usual employ
ment under threats of violence.
The petition of the attorney gen
eral sets out the history of formation
of business organizations "not only
of business concerns to protect them
selves, but labor unions and organ
izations, that . they might contend

The rule on which a strike is based
is given with the penalty of loss of
membership upon the union man who
fails to obey the strike order. It is
alleged that toleration of nonunion
workers is not allowed, and though
a nonunion worker be most highly
qualified and conducts himself in a
gentlemanly and orderly manner, un

There has been a letup in the se

front in France and Belgium. Along
the lines occupied by the French,
however, a renewal of activities of a
more intensive character is noted.
General Petain struck the German
lines in the Champagne yesterday a
blow which netted the French a

out the French line along the hills be

Socialist Gets From U. S. to
Stockholm Without Passport
Stockholm, June 19. (Via London.)
One of the three men who have
come to Stockholm from the United
States to participate in the Interna
tional Socialist peace conference suc
ceeded by his own admission in leav
ing the United States and ultimately
reaching Sweden, after his passport
had been taken up by the American
State department and he had failed in
an effort to have it returned.
This man is Boris Reinstein of Buf
falo, who says he is empowered to
represent the socialist labor party at
the conference, but refused to say
whether he is an American citizen.
The others who accompanied him
are Dr. Max Goldfarb of the New
York Forward and D. Davidovitch,
a Russian subject, who comes as a
representative of the socialist and ter
ritorialist labor Jewish party of Amer
ica, of whose Russian sister branch
he is a member.
All three men declared they were
opponents of the separate peace ef
forts. Dr. Goldfarb has asserted that
he was authorized to inform the
Dutch-Scandinavian committee that
the American socialist party was not
in favor of a separate peace.
Mr. Davidovitch said his sole pur
pose in coming to Stockholm was to
lay before the conference the program
of the Jews represented by him and
his Russian party comrades. He said
he was a member of the. Mensheviki
rather than the Bolsheviki group of
tne Kusstan socialists.
