" A4 e BREEZE SPEEDS ROOSEVELT BOAT Stiff Wind Develops Sud- denly After Schooner. Leaves Harbor. By the Associated Press. ABOARD SCHOONER LIBERTY OFF THE MAINE COAST, July 15.— A stiff breeze developed stddenly to- day to send the schooner Sewanna, with President Roosevelt aboard, shooting out of Bucks Harbor for a 40- mile run up the coast of Maine. As the skipper-President sailed his craft by the newspaper escort boat Liberty, he shouted over the water he hoped the excellent sailing wind re- mained indefinitely. A few miles up the coast the Chiet Executive, with three of his sons in his crew, tentatively arranged to cruise into a little harbor where Rear Admiral Richard Byrd, the explorer, has a Summer place. Using an auxiliary Diesel engine most of the way from Pulpit Harbor yesterday afternoon to substitute for flapping sails, the Sewanna, with the President at the helm, covered about 20 miles and dropped anchor for the night in snug little Buck Harbor off South Brookville, Me. Anchored close by were the destroyer Hopkins and the presidential yacht Potomac, serving as escort. Speed boats raced back and forth between the Sewanna and the convoys, carry- ng messages and mail It was a perfect day for motor vachting, but rather poor for sailing. For only 10 or 15 minutes as she nosed out of Penobscot Bay, the Se- wanna got a breeze that fairly skimmed the little white-hulled schooner across the water. Newspaper men in the much larger schooner, Liberty, were worse off than the President in attempting to get action out of jib and fore sail. . Mr. Roosevelt is not laying a def- fhite course each day as he moves toward the Bay of Fundy. He said he Bad not the faintest idea where he is going except generally northeastward. « After the Sewanna put into Bucks Harbor last night the boys went ashore, visited the general store at South Brooksville, and regained their land legs, but the sailor-President re- mained in the privacy of his state foom aboard ship. The President expects to stay at sea until July 28, when he is to pay a visit to his Campobello Island, New Bruns- wick, Summer home. There Mrs. Sara Delano Roosevelt, his mother, and his wife were to greet him. A visit to Lord Tweedsmuir, Ca- nadian governor general, at Quebec July 31 is next on the presidential {tinerary. Steel (Continued From First Page.) council has power to suspend un- jons in circumstances such as now face them, but also pointed out the importance of strict compliance with all legal requirements. Submission of specific charges and the setting of a date for trial, he continued, would meet these requirements. Failure of the C. I. O. unions to respond then would leave the council free to take whatever action it saw fit in view of the evidence. Courageous Action Urged. Along with this suggestion, it was reported, Green made a dramatic ap- peal for bold and courageous action by the council, emphasizing that the morale of the federation membership is dependent on confidence in the in- tegrity of the council. Indicating that his personal feeling is for suspension of the insurgent unions, Green is reported to have said such action would not split the labor movement more cleanly than it is now split and that formal suspension would be merely recognition of a condition that really exists. It was learned also that George M. Harrison, president of the Railway Clerks’ Union and chairmen of a special committee which represented the council in early efforts to persuade the C. I. O. unions to disband, repre- sented the conservative viewpoint at yesterday's session and urged that ef- forts be concentrated toward reaching & permanent settlement of the long- time craft vs. industrial union issue. Defending the right of the C. I. O. unions to band together to further their theory of unionism, Harrison is reported to have insisted that no real charges have yet been placed against them and that suspension would prove no disposition of a real issue within the labor movement. If charges are to be made, he sug- EISEMAN'’S SEVENTH AND F Great July Bargains ALL-WOOL SUITS (Coat, Vest and 'f‘rousers_) OFF THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, JULY 15, 1936. Roosevelt Boat Has Close Call A flurry of excitement was caused in Pulpit Harbor, off Rockland, Me., yesterda;‘l, when a motor launch, bearing movie cameramen, cut across the bow of the schooner Sewanna, bearing President Roosevelt and his sons.

John L. Lewis, chairman of the C. I O. and president of the United Mine Workers, returned to Washing- ton yesterday and is scheduled to speak early this afternoon at the Na- tional Press Club and to hold a press conference at 5 pm. With him at the press conference will be Sidney Hillman, president of the Amalga- mated Clothing Workers, another C. I. O. union, and George L. Berry, president of the Printing Press Union. Berry is associated with Lewis and Hillman in Labor’s Non-Partisan League, which is applying its non- partisanship in a vigorous campaign for re-election of President Roosevelt. Lewis declined last night to make any comment on actions of the Fed- eration Council thus far, but he ex- pressed the opinion that “charges” already had been flled against the C. 1. O. without necessity of repeat- ing the action. Green Comments on Outlook. Green made the following comment —Copyright, A.

I. O. to respond to the invita- tions to a conference. It deplores the fact that no representatives were Ppresent. “We felt that the proposed discus- sions might lead to a solution of our differences. That effort has resulted in failure of the C. I. O. unions, the set-up of the organization, its aims and purposes. We made no decision in our course, but probably will dis- pose of the issue in some manner to- morrow.” Two members of the council, both opposed to suspension action, have been absent from the sessions, David Dubinsky of the Ladies’ Garment Workers being in Europe and William D. Mahon of the Street Carmen being |. ill. Green said yesterday that it is not customary to allow absentees to vote, although both in this case have requested the privilege of submit- ting their ballots. As president of the federation Green does not have a vote with the council unless there is a tle. Without Green and the two absentees there are 14 eligible to vote. DENIES UNION RECOGNIZED.

AZTEC MEDICAL BOOK OF 1552 TO BE PRINTED Smithsonian Institution Will Pub- lish “Herbal” Remedies for Many Ailments. By the Associated Press. The first medical book written in the Western Hemisphere is about to be published by the Smithsonian In- stitution after a delay of almost four centuries. The book, an Aztec “herbal” or cat- alogue of plants and the healing po- tions made from them, was written in 1552 by a Martin de la Cruz in the Aztec language and translated into Latin by another Aztec, Quannes Badi- anus, while they were students at the College of Santa Cruz. Five years ago it was discovered in the Vatican Library at Rome by an American, Dr. Charles U. Clark. The book contains remedies for many ailments, among them colds, falling hair, head fractures, sore eyes, fever, cataracts and feeble-mindedness. Large Strawberry.
