ROME, Jan. 25.—Conservaive and radical elements in Italy virtually have joined forces in combatting the bill prepared for Parliament by Premier Giolitti, which would give workers a share in the management of industrial plants. State industries, concerns which have been doing business less than four years, and factories employing less than sirty workers would be exempt from the pro- JAP AFFAIR. [3 ing men general supervision over in- dustrial operations in this country. An explanation of the objects of the bill is included in Article 1, it being stated that the legislation is desired to “secure participation in in- ‘airs by workers, make it for workers to know the ons prevalent in industry, and bring «bout an improvement in tech- nica! instruction and in the moral and economic condition of workers.” + It is the bill would seek to 5 “improve ard make more economical —— methods of production and render the (Continued from Page 1) relations between workers ployers more peaceful.” Article 2 stipulates the industries coming within the terms of the bill, among them being metaliurgic, tex- and em- lished by the Far E Chits |OPPOSITION FLAYS BERIAN POLIC tern republic at tile, chemical and tric plants, land| TOKIO, .J ¥f\ @ Japan shad ater transport, real estate, / withdrawn her troops from Siberia and hotels. when the United States did, she Article 3 provides that a national|would not have been open to the commission would be elected, this|chargze that her ambition were mili- commission to be composed of nine/taristic, declared Viscount Kato, members, six elected by working-|jeade~ of the opposition, in his speec! men, and three by engineers and|jn the diet today attacking the gov- clerks.

Then, contrary to general expectations, Japan had withdrawn only partially when the repatrjation of the Czecho- Slovaks in Siberia had been effected. Likewise, in 1919, continued Vis- count Kato, the Japanese troops in Siberia had been reinforced on the ground that such action was impera- tive to the maintenance of peace, the safeguardigg of Japan against Korean outlaws and the prevention of Bol- shevik predominance. The ever- changing explanations, he asserted, had proved the absence of a fixed policy. “When America withdrew,” the op- position 1 eader declared, “Japan should have followed sutt if she real- ly desired to respect the spirit of joint action and really had in view at the time it was decided to send an expeditionary force, the facilitation of the Czecho-Slovak withdrawal. The American withdrawal. virtually de- prived apan of justification for the further maintenance of troops in Siberia.” —>—__—— Naval Inquiry Concluded.

SCHWAB BREAKS DOWN, MAINTAINS ORIGNAL STORY Tears Fill Eyes of Steel Magnate on Taking Stand in Self-Defense of Charge Involving Expense Fund NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—Tears came to ihe eyes of Charies M. Schwab, steel. magnate, _when he reappeared late today before the Walsh committee in ing shipping board affairs, to give fur- vestigating ther testimony regarding his $260,000 expense voucher “hich, it has been alleged, was charged to the government. -In a choking voice he told the committee of a meeting he had with Perley Morse, head of the audit- ing firm claiming to have found the voucher, after Mr. Morse had, testi- fied regarding the diseoyery, and Mr. Schwad had denied receiving anything from the government. Mr. Schwd, in reply to a question, sajd he finolly had’ agreed to meet Mr. Morse at a hotel after ‘he had been approached by a man who sought to arrange a méeting in Morse's office or at a club. “There I told Morse the facts as I stated them on the witness stand were true,” said Mr. Schwab. “This matter coming at the rounding out of forty years of a business career will be so deep in my heart that Iasised Mr. Morse to correct it, and I t ‘ould ‘ correct ‘it At this point his voice broke and he asked the chairman to excuse him. NEW YORK, Jan. 25—Positive denial that any part of the $260,000 voucher, expenses of Charles M. Schwab for the month of October, 1918 ever was charged to ship con- |, struction was made today by F. A. Shick, general auditor of the Beth- leham Steel Corporation, in testimony before the Walsh Congressional Com- mittee investigating affairs of the shipping board. Mr. Shick said he had personal knowledge that the voucher was charged ot “profit and loss" of the Bethlehem corporation, and that it was"never picked up by the Emer- gency Fleet Corportion as a_proper reigns.

His testimony contradicted that given last week by Col. H. H. Abadic, former comptroller general of the skipping board, to the effect that the item was submitted as Mr. Schwab's personal expenses. Before Mr. Shick testified, Eugene G. Grace, president of the Bethlehem Steel corporation, was recalled to the stand. He reiterated his testimony of yesterday that the item in ques- tion was allowed by his company as Mr. Schwab's “‘special expenses" and not as “personal expenses.” Mr. Grace testified that even had such an item gone through and been passed as proper by the shipping board, it would have been caught up by the Bethlehem corporation and dis- allowed. In reference to testimony of Per- ley Morse, head of the auditing firm of Perley Morse & Co., that this voucher was among a list of “mis- placed {ter found in the Bethle- hem corporation’s books totalling $339,000, r. Grace said, there were no misplacef items urless they were displaced by the Emergency Fleet corporation's auditors.” Mr. Grace agreed to supply the committee with photostatic copies of records of the corporation. These would prove beyond doubt, he sald. that no part of the item! had. ever been charged to ship construction.
