THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTONX, D. €., THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1929 29 'HEFLIN CHARGES Says White House Telephone Communications “Group” Is Still Active. Br the Associated Press During, another attack on the “Roman Catholic political machine” in the Senate yesterday, Senator Heflin of Alabama, declared the same Eroup in charge of telephone communications at the White House “planned there by Joe Tumulty” during the Wilson administration, was at work now under | President. Hoover. | this the group that stands be-| tween the Protestants and Jews and | the President?” Heflin asked. Joseph P. Tumulty was President | Wilson's _secretary, ~The Alabaman charged that the nomination of Alfred E. Smith was part of “the plot” to| make the Pope supreme throughout the world. The Roman Catholic machine, he said, planned to have | Smith as President at the same time | that an accord was reached between the Pope and the Italian government. | League Financing Charge. A charge that Catholic interests were financing the ~ Alabama Women's League for White Supremacy, headed by Mrs. Mable Jones West of Birming- ham, also was made by Senator Heflin. The Senator called the organization " and asserted that the state- 1ed by it was first con- n Catholic influence. The statement he referred to took Heflin to task for making anti-Catholic | speeches in the Senate The real purpose of the organization, | Meflin said, was to permit attacks by some candidates who desired to run against the Senator when he comes up for re-election next year. “Mrs. West had to get an organiza- tion in order to get money from the Catholic Church, Heflin declared. “How much will she receive for her services ! to Rome?” South Seen Still in Line. Contending that the South would | preserve the supremacy of the white | race, Senator Blease, Democrat of South Carolina, told Republicans in the Senate that they should not be fooled into believing the South would break from the Democratic party in coming elec- tions. “In 1932, when the leaders of the Democratic party come to their senses,” he said, “and find it futile to force a candidate upon the South whom they don’t want, by fraud. trickery. deception and money, the South wifl be back where it belongs.” LOCKOUT OF 75,000 WORKERS AVERTED Both Sides in New York Building| Trades Controversy Agree to Arbitration. By the Associated Prese. NEW YORK, May 23 —The threateng | ed lockout of 75,000 workers in the | building trades in New York City has been averted, Supreme Court Justice C. T. Crain announced yesterday, both sides having agreed to submit their dif- ferences to a board of arbitration com- posed af Justice Crain, Robert D. Kohn, an architect. and an electrical engineer et to be seleeted. The lockout was voted last week by the Building Trades Employers' Asso- clation on the ground that the Building Trades Council, the workers' organiza- tion, had failed to stop sympathetic | strikes in support of an electrical work- ers’ union which had refused to fur- nish workers to three contractors. After the lockout was voted the Elec- trical Workers' Union announced it had decided to furnish the contractors with men, but _the employers’ association de- cided to let the lockout go on anyway. ‘Then a united cement and concrete workers’ organization obtained a tem- porary injunction and at a hearing de- cision was reserved on the application to_make the injunction permanent. The lockout would have affected $150,000,000 in construction now under ‘way.
