CHICAGO, July 3.—Preliminary plans whereby minority political groups may unite for actlon are expected to be con- sidered at the opening session here to- day of the conference of minority polit- ical bodles, labor organizations and co- operative societies, called by the farm- er-labor party, which is also meeting in convention here. The keynote address, expected to be the guide which will be followed in the discussion, will be made today by Lieut. Gov. George F. Comings of Wisconsin. Speakers on today's program include former Senator R. F. Pettigrew of South Dakota, “Mother” Jones, labor leader, and John Fitzgerald, president of the Chicago Federation of Labor. Questions to be considered by the conference include means of promot- ing agricultural prosperity, reduction of the federal budget, waterways, the merchant fieet, prohibition, education, raliroads, co-operative marketing, tariff and Income tax revision and child labor. Without seeking to amalgamate the participating groups, an effort will be made to map out an acceptable program for 1924 that will command the support of all elements not satisfled with the two old parties, according to Jay G. Brown, secre- ltary of the farmer-labor party. 1,000 to Attend. More than a thousand delegates are registered for the sessions, rep- resenting the non-partisan league of Wisconsin, farmer-labor party, pro- gressives, American labor party, pro- gressive farmers of the Pacific north- west, national woman's party and woman's international league for peace and freedom, in addition to del- egates from central labor bodles, state federations and local labor councils. The American Federation of Labor is not represented, nor is the socialist party, although some overtures to the latter to join the conference may be made, it is said. SEVEN BANDITS GET $38,306 IN HOLD-UP Police of St. Louis Pursuing Gang That Looted United Rail- ‘ways Company. By the Associated Prese ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 3.—Police of St. Louis and surrounding cities are hunting for seven bandits reported fleeing toward central Missouri in two automobiles with $38,306 in cur- rency, which they obtained in a dar- ing hold-up of the offices of the United Railways Company here late yesterday. The money constituted a pay roll. . Two men are under arrest sus- pected of connection with the rob- The bandits entered the office, ployes, paymaster’s cage, scooped up the money, which was being put into pay envelopes, and escaped amid a hail of shot from company employees. Officials of the company, who sald the money was insured, express the belief that the robbery was an in- side job, because the raid was car- ried out so speedily and systemati- cally. —_——— CRACKS JOKE AND LOSES STOCK OF ALLEGED BEER Jest Over Cask Displaced From Truck Causes Seizure of Forty Barrels.

I was more than delighted with the results obtained In the way of revenue dur- ing the last fiscal year. Instead of a deficit, as many predicted, we closed the year with a surplus which on final revision will show about $287,000,000 on the right side of the ledger. Such a surplus would not justify a revision of our tax laws. Nearly all of it came from import duties, which ex. ceeded our fondest hopes.” Raflroad legislgtion, Mr. Smoot added, 18 certain to be one of the first| iderations of the new Congress. ur farmers fn the west,” Re sald. not be satisfied until freight rates are lowered.” Senator Smoot will sail from New York on Wednesday to make a study of economical conditlons in Great Britain, France, Belgium and possi- bly Germany.
