1 5 NEW PARTY TAKES RADICAL INITIATIVE Reso]utions Against Violence in Change of Rule Tabled by Federated Body. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, July 6.—Any may be used in obtaining political control of government by the new federated farmer-labor party, created here last night, it is indicated in the tabling of a resolution by the con- vention which would have excluded any group from its platform which advocated force or violence or which | in any way was affiliated with an or- ganization that sought political satis- faction except through the ballot. This radical action twice was sup- ported, first by tabling the substi- tute platform of the farmer-labor caucus, which included such a sec- tion, and later by tabling a resolution recommended by the minority of the resolution committee. Sentiment of the confer ce on each occasion was expressed in unfailing voice. weapon The federated farmer-labor party adjourned as a convention early to- day with only routine business of the utive committee on _its s committee will meet late choose an (\wunw council, other oflicers and n out & pro- &ram of state and local ;ml\m Party to Reconvene, The farmer-labor party will recon- ‘vene its convention to decide its fate 85 a party. It refused to join in the Platform as adopted by the federated | £roup, but reserved final decision un- 1l the platform was officially brought before its convention. Na- tional officers of the farmer-labor party last night were or the opinion that the party would not subscribe to | the federated organization. The representatives of the workers® party, an acknowleded nch of the communists, were jubilant over the | ©utcome, they pointing out that the farmer-labor party was “on the run” either way it went. If it voted to reject, then the farmer-labor party was scrapped. If it is voted to partei- pate, then its organization will be merged. Some strength to these argu- ments was lent in the fact that a number of state gropps of the farm- er-labor party served notice In the cancus that they would go with the federated party regardless of the offi- cial n of their convention. It appeared to observers that the radi- cals had captured the convention of the farmer-labor party, which call- ed delegat »m industrial, economic and farmers' organizations to meet with them in reaching a common ground of political uni “Red” Speeches tir, “Red” speeches, which became more pronounced as the convention neared its close, kept the delegaes in al-| most contin demonstration, either | in applause or in boos and hisses. | Advocates of the platform openly ad- mitted their “red” beliefs and flaunted communist doctrines in the face of delegates who would suggest con- servatism.

LONDON, July ~—Acocording to some of the newspapers, the strike of dock workers is drifting into & struggle between the communists and the trade unions. These journals al- lege that if the communists did not start the strike they nevertheless speedily availed themselves of the situation for their own interests and are now taking a prominent hand by furnishing speakers at strike meet- ings and otherwise identifying them- selves with the discontented element. Leaders of the striking dock men in London repudiate this, asserting that the strike has nothing to do with the communists. Resolutions rejecting the union's instructions to resume work on Mon- day were passed at several meetings of ‘strikers held last evening. PHYSICIAN UPHELD AT FLOGGING TRIAL Forty-Seven Testify for Doc- tor- Who Declared Death Due to Pneumonia. By the Associated Press. T LAKE CITyY, seven influential citizens of Perry, Fla., and Taylor county came to the support of Dr. T. Capers Jones, camp physician for the Putnam Lumber Company, today In the trial of Thoma W. Higginbotham, former convict whipping Dboss, charged with the murder of Martin Tabert of North | Dakota. Dr. Jones' truth and veracity were upheld as being excellent by the wit- nesses, who testified they had been rssociated with him eighteen years. | The witnesses were the last to be put up by the defense in rebuttal, the state” having closed its case shortly after convening early today. Dr. Jones attended Tabert, who, the state charges, was whipped to death in a convict camp of the Putnam com- pany. He testified he had made a thorough examination of Tabert prior to his death, and gave lobar pneu- monia as the cause of death. He sald there were no signs on Tabert's body indicating he had been whipped. The physician’s testimony as to lobar ! pneumonia was substantiated by six expert witnesses Judge M. A. McMullan is expected to charge the jury this afternoon, and arguments will immediately fol- low. Indicatlons are the case will go to_the jury Monday. The state’s witnesses today present- ed testimony that the reputation of Higginbotham was bad during the time he lived in Clara_and his short stay in Lake City. Fifty-four wit- nessves have testified that the defend- ant's character was good.

CHICAGO, July 6.—Bishop Edgar Blake of the Methodist Episcopal area of Paris, in a communication to Dr. Joseph B. Hingeley, corre- sponding secretary of the Methodist Episcopal board of conference claim- ants, the pension department of the church, described his visit to the council of the Russian Orthodox Church at Moscow as one of his most clnating experiences,” according to Dr. Hingeley. Bishop Blake wrote that he “would be glad to tell the people about it if they would listen to one who, in spite of efforts to make it appear otherwise, had never been red, or even pink, and who had never been accused of being yellow." Discredited Reports. The bishop had just closed the Bul- garian conference, in Belgrade, when he read newspaper statements con- Sorming the Methodist mission to Ri sia. When he came out of Russia and read that the Methodist bishops had recalled the mission to Russia and had rebuked and repudiated him, he re- fused to take the reports seriously because it was inconcelvable that they would send a delegation of thelr colleagues on such a delicate mission and then repudiate them while they were in actual performance of their duty—an act like that of ordering a soldier to an advanced position and then shooting him In the back,” Bishop Blake wrote, Dr. Hingeley stated. “Especlally inaccurate was the characterization of the Moscow coun- cil as ‘former ecclesiastics of the Russlan orthodox church.’ The char- acter of the council and its status was exactly the same as when the invita tion was accepted at Baltimore in No- vember, 1922, Elected Legally. “The Moscow council was a council of legally elected representatives and was called by the patrlarch Tihkon himself. Archbishops and bishops were ex-officic members of the coun- cil, approximately sixty of them from the total of seventy-two diocases were present as members—a remarkable fact in view of the great distances and the difficulties of tra But they met not as ‘former ecclesiastics of the Russian orthodox church,’ but as elected representatives and recognized leaders of the Russian church of to- day.” Besides the archbishops and bishops, the council was composed of clerical and duly elected lay delegates, the dispatch added. €0,000 METAL WORKERS ‘With 250,000 Members In- volved in Movement.

REPORT ON PHONE STRIKE. a By the Assoclated Pres: LONDON, July 6.—Advices from Dover today create doubt as to whether there is any sound basis for the rumors that salvage operations on the sunken liner Lusitanla arg about to be attempted. The salvaga’ steamship Semper Paratus left Dover yesterday with clearance papers for the north Atlantic, and reports wera current that she would attempt td retrieve some of the $5,000,000 of $6,000,000 in gold that went dowi with the steamer when she was tore pedoed, but Cunard line officials dis. claimed knowledge that any suck work was to be undertaken. 5 The salvage campany of whicj Count Landi is the head bought th( Semper Paratus for the admiralty last year. She has since been ens gaged in salvage work of a non-sen- sational character and the salvage experts here are skeptical over the possibility of success for any diving operations she might attempt in water as deep as that in which lies the Lusitania.
