Rep. Mondell Declares I
Extra Session (Should
Meet by First of May
By Staff Correspondent.
Washington, April 11. Represen
tative Mondell, who is to be major
ity floor leader in the next house,
feels the urgent necessity for call
ing an extra session soon.
"The president should assemble
congress not later than May 1," said
Mr. Mondell today, "in order to
give the time absolutely necessary
for consideration of the appropria
tion bills before the beginning of
the fiscal year, July 1. It will be
physically impossible to prepare and
pass the great appropriation bills
running into the billions of dollars
within the space of 30 days if con
gress is held off until June 1 as
has been suggested.
"Congress can not frame these
immense appropriations without
careful consideration, without hear
ings of heads of bureaus and de
partments and without attention to
the ndified needs of the govern
ment after the war.
"Aside from the necessity of
granting time to get up the bills
with care and due attention to econ
omy, it will be necessary to supply
deficiencies long before July 1. Many
of the departments now are suffer
ing from deficiencies and this state
of affairs ought not to be permit
ted to continue. It is absurd to
suggest that the government's needs
could be met by passing continu
ing resolutions, that is, continuing
in effect for 30 days or longer the
existing appropriations. This is an
undesirable recourse in normal
times, but now is out of the ques
tion because the current appropria
tions' will not be needed for the
future in some cases, and would not
suffice in others. Congress ought
to be called and the work of sup
plying the government taken up in
:'me to make it effective with the
beginning of the new fiscal year."
Labor Editors Disapprove
Strike in Mopney's Behalf
Chicago, April ll. A group of
editors of labor papers attending a
conference of newspaper editors of
the Seventh1 federal reserve district
in the interest of the Victory liberty
loan held a meeting today and draft
ed and adopted resolutions disap
proving of a nationwide strike in an
attempt to. free TJiomas Mooney,
convicted of murder in connection
with the preparedness day bomb ex
plosion in San Francisco in 1916.
- The resolutions urged that the
better way to aid Mooney is to ap
prehend the guilty parties, and asled
that unions be assessed for the pur
pose and the executive committee
of " the American Federation of
Labor lake charge of the money and
i prosecute the search.
COMMUTATION
OF 52 SENTENCES
URGED BY PALMER
Attorney General Also Refutes
Statement That There Are
' 1,500 Political Prisoners
. . in v Penitentiaries. " .
Washington, April 11.. Recom
mendations of executive clemency
for 52 persons convicted under the
espionage act have been sent to
President Wilson by Attorney Gen
eral Palmer, but the names ' and
commutation in each case will not
be announced until the president
has acted. This is in line with the
policy of clemency inaugurated by
Thomas W. Gregory as attorney
general and approved by President
Wilson several weeks ago, through
extension of clemency in 55 cases.
"In this connection," said Attor
ney General Palmer in an announce
ment today, 'I desire to call at
tention to the exaggerated figures
which are being used by persons
agitating for what is called a gen
eral amnesty to protect prisoners;
so exaggerated, in fact, that I can
not help suspecting the over-statement
to be deliberate.
Total Number 239.""
"When this investigation of the
espionage act cases began about two
months ago, the total number of
persons confined in jails and penir
tentiaries for violation of the es
pionage act was only 239. Of these
the sentences of 55 have since ex
pired and five have been paroled,
having 179 now in confinement. In
about 30 of these cases the sen
tences have already been commuted
and I have now recommended com
mutations in 52 more: These figures
do not' include the Industrial Work
ers of the World group of cases in
Chicago and California, which would
add 121 to the number. Of these,
