TULSA, Okla., June 4.—Homes for thousands of negroes made destitute by the race rioting here this week will be rebuilt by Tulsa business men, _Dut a general plan of reconstruction ‘was still being sought today by mem- bers of the citizens’ committee of welfare named for that purpose, and out of the burning of the negro sec- tion the negroes will profic in one re- spect, for the business interests of the city are determined that a better and more sanitary section will be erected. Some prominent men object to rear- ing a new negro settlement on the ashes of the area destroyed, and sug- gest that land be bought in the northern section of the city, where homes could be built with a view to city planning. Judge T. J. Martin, chairman of the committee, declared that 1,000 Tulsa men should volunteer each to build a negro a home. He said it would re- quire not more than $1.000 for a home. The relief work among the negroes was thoroughly organized today and most of them had left the detention camp at the fair grounds.

Johnson is alleged by the police to have accepted a bet on a race at his Store, 7301: 14th street, and it i charged that marked money and bet g slips were found in his posses- sion when arrested. It is also charged that Sullivan, is in the lunchroom business near the wholesale market, accepted marked money on the races, the po- lice alleging that the money was Thursday afternoon the same police squad arrested Edward Kemp Allen, twenty-four years old, Portner apart- ments, and charged that he accepted a bet from a police agent.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, June $.—Hazel Shirley, fifteen-year-old schoolgirl of Highland Park, Mich.,, reported kid- naped. was located here by the police last night at the home of a relative NO SEPARATE PARTY. League of Women Voters Is Not a Political Unit. To the Editor of The Star: On the first page of The Evening Star of Friday in connection with the report of the hearing on the reclassi- fication bill there appears.a state- iment with regard to the policy of the National League of Women Voters which is absolutely contrary to the fact. This statement says: “This or- ganization is said to have a unit inl every county of every state of the Union, and is advising the women of the country to vote for their inter: est withoui making party affiliations.’ Far from advising that women keep out of political parties, the League of Women Voters at the convention at which it was organized last yearj adopted as its slogan “Enroll in the Political Parties.” Under its constitu- tion it is forbidden as an organization to ally itself with any political party, but its members as individuals have | always been urged to take part in the activities of political parties. The league is wholly opposed to a separate political party of women. The paragraph which follows the statement I have quoted from the Star’s article is also somewhat mis- of a school chum. The girl said she was approached by a man while on her way from school Thursday, who told her that unless she accompanied him her father, who had been involved in an unlawful transaction, would be sent to jail. After drawing some money from a bank, Hazel accompanied the man to Cleveland on the night boat. The man left the girl on a down- town correr. DETROIT, June 4.—Highland Park police discarded the theory that Hazel Shirley, fifteen-year-old schoolgirl, who disappeared Thursday. was ab- ducted, they announced shortly after receiving word from Cleveland that the girl was at the home of friends there. leading in the interpretation which it puts on an informal discussion be- tween Senator Sterling, Congressman Addison Smith and me. These gentle- man have been stanch friends of wom- en’s interests and were putting for- ward a series of questions largely suggested by the speech of a witness at a previous session. Neither one of them was of necessity stpting hi#®wn views, and our remarks were largely in the nature of a semi-humorous dis. cussion of the possible dangers which other persons had tried to emphasize. There is the friengdliest .feeling be- tween these gentlemen and the League of Women Voters. MAUD WOOD PARK, President National League of Woémen Voters, [ | shaft will mot object to its || | removal.

Trade mark UNION SPLIT OPEN FIGHT OVER FUNDS Radical French Railwaymen Win Vote, But Moderates Hold Purse Strings. By the Associated Press. PARIS, June 4—The split in the railwaymen’s union, following the vie- tory of the communists in the conven- tion last Thursday, when a motion for syndical direction, of the orzanization was adopted, has resulted in an ani- mated conflict over possession of the union’s funds and headquarters. Al- though the communists outvoted the moderates in the gonvention, the latter still hold the regular organization. The communists have succeeded in gaining possession of the union’s build- ing, but_Secretary Bidegaray has suc- ceeded iR putting the union’s treasury out of reach of the extremists. Disruption not only of the raflway- men’s union, but of the General Fed- eration of Labor, is predicted in labor circles here as a result of the extrem ists’ success. The federation still intact, but the same division as has become effective in the socialist party and the railwaymen’s union exists in a latent state in the organization, one of the strongest elements of which, the union labor organization of the Scine, is in the hands of extremists. One’ result of the growth of com- munist influence is the decreased membership of the labor unions. The railwaymen, who mustered 300,000 votes at the convention preceding last year's strike, registered only 100,000 at the convention which ended Thurs- v in the communist victory.
