G. 0. P. PLATFORM
PLANK ON LABOR
Tells A. F. L. Convention That
Republicans Have Turned
Their Back Upon Labor
Aid Their Enemies.
Montreal, June 12. The repub
lican convention has turned its
back upon labor" and has adopted
a platform "defiant in its defense
of the enemies of labor and cal
culated to secure for them fresh ad
vantage and greater privileges,"
Samuel Gonipers, and Matthew
Woll, president and vice president
of the American Federation of
Labor, declared here today in a
statement presented at the federa
tion's annual convention.
The labor declaration of the plat
form as adopted, they asserted, pro
poses an industrial enslavement and
an abrogation of rights as precious
as life itself."
"While there It in the platform a
certain shrewdness in selection of
language, there is never any op
portunity for doubt as to the true
meaning of their provisions relat
ing to labor," they added.
Condemns Its Stand.
The statement vicrorouslv saiU
the republicans for neglecting anti
profiteering legislation recom
mendations. "The republican platform prac
tically ignores the profiteer," the
statement added, "and while recog
nizing the evils of currency infla
tion, offers no remedy for that con
dition. Specific proposals submitted
by labor for relief from the high cost
or living and profiteering are given
no place in the platform."
The Mexican plank of the plat
form, the labor leaders charged,
'clearly aims to undermine the sov
ereignty of the Mexican govern
ir.ent and to make the maintenance
of order in Mexico the business of
the government oi the United
States.
"It proposes the fulfillment of
what long have been the hopes and
aims of those whose sole object is
the exploitation of the people and
boundless resources of Mexico," ac
cording to the labor chiefs.
Hits Cummins Plank.
The republican endorsement of
the transportation act of 1920 was
declared to be a complete denial and
repudiation of the demand submit
ted by labor and is an emphatic en
dorsement of the labor provisions
of the Cummins-Esch railroad act.
The section of this plank refer
ring to "peaceful arbitration on the
wage disputes" was said to be a
tenial of the lawful ripht of the
workers to cease working."
"This denial of the right to
strike," the labor chiefs- asserted, the
party proclaims as one of its great
est achievements.
"We hold no brief for the demo
cratic party,"-continued the state
ment, commenting on the republican
condemnation of the democratic ad
ministration for "failure to enforce
the anti-profiteering laws, but we
cair attention to the fact that specific
proposals on this subject submitted
by labor are ignored completely.
Evades the Issues.
"The republican platform evades
the issues and offers no remedy; it
denies the importance of profiteer
ing as the leading cause of the high
cost of living and endeavors toput
a part of the responsibility upon
what it falsely calls 'disproportion
ate wage advances. We have no
knowledge of any substantial or ef
fective anti-profiteering laws passed
by the republican congress.
The plank regarding labor's right
to strike "constitutes a denial of
labor's demands and contemplates
the erection of government ma
chinery for the coercion of labor
and for the suppression and limita
tion of its proper, lawful and nor
mal activities, ' said the statement.
"It proposes to erect government
tribunals vested with the power to
compel involuntary labor. The en
tire plank is a denial of freedom
and in addition subversive of the
best interests of our republic."
The labor leaders asserted re
publicans failed to mention in their
platform labo's demands for a
federal law for trie legal right of
"voluntary association" to protect
itself against "unwarrantable is
suance of writs of injunction," and
the "vigorous enforcement of the
seamen's act and the most liberal
interpretation of its provisions."

port that Grover Bergdoll, escaped
draft evhder, and his brother, Erwin,

A man and a woman applied at the
Summit hotel in the mountains east
of here Friday afternoon foi a room,
said a .report received here. While

current about the hotel that the

federal agents say is traveling in !
the garb of a woman. Because of
the mysterious actions of the pair, I

Seven Men of Eagle
Boat Crew Missing
When Craft Capsizes
Philadelphia. Tune 12. Seven of
the crew of Eagle Boat No. 25.
which was struck by a squall and
capsized in the Delaware river Fri
day were unaccounted for Friday
night and naval officials said their
fate probably would not be known
until Saturday. It was at first re
ported that five men had been
caught in the engine room and
drowned, but officials at the navy
yard said this had not been con
firmed and that it was possjjile some
of the missing sailors had been
picked up by small craft which aided ;
in tne rescue worK.
The little war craft carried a crew
of seven officers and 51 men. Forty-
six of them were picked up by an
excursion steamer, four by another
boat and one man chiseled a hole in
the side of the eagle boat while it
was floating bottom up and swam
ashore.
Sounds Warning That
Natural Gas Supply
Is Dwindling Rapidly II
Chlcngo Tribune-Omaha Bee Leaned H ire.
Washington, June 12. Not only
is the oil situation a matter of seri
ous consideration, but the supply of
natural gas is also dwindling in an
alarming manner. This was stated
Friday by Dr. Frederick G. Cottrell,
director of the bureau of mines, in
an address at a conference of Nat
ural Gas Conservation, called by
Secretary of the Interior Payne and
attended by representatives of a
number of states which are vitally
interested in the question.
Dr. Cottrell declared that the pro
duction of gas in the past year has
been accompanied by "incredible
waste and folly." He said that the
exhaustion of the supply would be
a calamity.
