- WALKERISHINTED | BY TAMMANYITES Some District Leaders Sug- gest Compromise in May- cralty Fight. NEW YORK, July “Jimmy” Walker, former Mayor of | New York, was suggested in some | Tammany quarters today as a com- | promise Democratic primary candidate | in the city’s scrambled mayoralty | eampain. Walker's name and that of former | Mayor John P. O'Brien, who suc- | ceeded him, were proposed informally | by some Tammany district leaders. They expressed dismay at dissent in their ranks which they say has fol- lowed the designation by Tammany Leader James J. Dooling of United Btates Senator Royal S. Copeland, New Deal foe, as his choice in the mayoralty free-for-all. The pro-New Deal leaders of the city’s other four Democratic county organizations (Tammany is limited 19.—James J. | THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY, JULY 19, 1937. to Manhattan only) meeting at the Hotel Commodore, gave no outward | sign of interest in the proposal. They | have selected Grover A. Whalen, Gardenia-wearing handshaker of the famous, as their candidate. | The least disturbed figure appeared to be the fusion incumbent, Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia, who says he hopes the Democrats will stop fight- ing among themselves so he can begin | fighting them. His backers hope he will be nominated on “all” tickets. China (Continued From First Page.) Peiping-Tientsin zone had been reached by Japanese and Chinese military commanders in the area, the Chinese accepting verbally the Japa- nese demands. Hidaka, according to Nanking dis- patches, declared he could not accept | the statement of the Chinese govern- ment's attitude. He told the envoy | he would wait until tonight for the | Nanking government to reconsider and submit a new reply. Situation Less Tense. Although Tokio officials watched | the Nanking exchanges closely and | expressed doubts of the value of the | Tientsin agreement, repor from | Peiping indicated the situation was | less tense. A dispatch to the Asahi said troops of the Chinese 29th Army had begun | removing barricades and war equip- ment from the area west of Tientsin in compliance with the Japanese de- mands. (Previous Chinese-Japanese crises in North China have been settled be- tween Japanese commanders on the | £pot and local Chinese officials. The | Japanese army, a dominant factor in| determining China policy, has in. that any settlement of the pr dispute must be local and that king's acceptance or otherwise was of little importance.) Concerning the airplane-troop train clash Japanese admitted their planes | had fired on the trains at Yuanshih, | 170 miles south of Peiping on the| Hankow Railroad, but declared the | troops aboard the trains had first | fired on the Japanese war craft. The Chinese declared their troops had suffered many casualties in the | swooping attack. | Troop Concentration Charged. Japan charged heavy concentrations of Chinese troops had violated an | agreement which the Japanese army | fays forbids the Nanking Chinese | government from sending troops into | North China | Particularly heavy concentrations of Chinese troops were said to have been | made at Paotingfu, 85 miles south of | Peiping, while armies were moving in from the northwest and south of the area where Japanese and Chinese have been fighting. In view of the steadily increasing tension between China and Japan over the conflict of their armed troops as well as interests in the rich North China region, the Tokio metropolitan ®&rea was prepared for a state of emer- gency. First reports of Chinese troop mo- bilizations drew a warning from Japan that she considered them a violation of the Ho-Umeza agreement, which formed the basis for the charges of “invasion” made today. The terms of the agreement signed in 1935 by Gen. Ho Ying-Chin, Chi- | nese minister of war, and then rank- ing North €hina official, and Gen. | Yoshijiri Umezu, at the time com- | mander of the Japanese North China garrison, have never been made pub- it.

By the Assoclated Press. William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, asked his Executive Council today to de- cide in August these two major prob- lems of its fight against John L.

Should the federation push the organizetion of unions covering entire industries (thé Lewis method) as well as the organization of its traditional craft unions? 2. Should a permanent increase in dues be recommended to finance the fight for labor leadership? Some A. F. of L. units, such as the electrical workers, already have sought to meet Lewis’ campaign by offering memberships on an industrial basis. The council asked member unions last May voluntarily to double their con- | tributions to the national organization. | Green, calling this strategy meet- {ing at Atlantic City to plan the Fall | campaign against Lewis, said federa- | [t | February 20 of this year. | tion membership of 3,091,000 on July 1 was 652,000 above the membership of | August 31 last year.

BACKGROUND— Successful at other large auto Jactories in organizing eflorts, United Automobile Workers’ Union has met determined opposition at Ford plants. Labor Board hearing was begun two wecks ago to investigate com- plaints men have been dismissed by the Ford Co. for union activities. B the Associated Press. DETROIT, July 19.—Joseph Sazyn- ki, a former Ford Motor Co. employe, testified at a National Labor Relations Board hearing today that he had twice refused transfers to other departments within the plant before he was dis- charged. Sazynski was one of the men the N. R. L. B. complaint against Ford charged were dismissed for union ac- tivity. He testified he was employed | at the Ford plant from last December | until June 9 and that the joined the United Automobile Workers’ Union on He testified he declined a job in the wheel department because the ma- chine for tightening bolts was too heavy. He said that was during the first few weeks of his employment and that he was given lighter work. Just before his dismissal, he said, he was asked to take a job in the cylinder- head department and objected because “it was a dirty job and there was too much dust.” Labor Board Contention. Labor Board attorneys contended | was assigned to a Jjob,” 50 there would be a pretext for his discharge. Ford attorneys how- ever, claimed his story of having | twice refused tasks he did not like was sufficient explanation for his dis- | charge. While the N. L. R. B. hearing en- tered its third week, Willlam Merri- weather, one of a group of U. A. W. Sazynski “dirty There’s A Good Reason men beaten at the Ford gates on May 26, identified several of the eight de- fendants being examined in Common Pleas Court on assault charges grow- ing out of that clash. He named Oscar Jones and Wilfred Comment as men he saw beating Rob- ert Sentman, a union official, and said that after they had left Sentman they attacked him. Merriweather said Jones struck him in the stomach and that he was kicked until he was unconscious. He told the court he suffered two broken ver- tebrae above the base of the spine | and that he still is wearing a plaster cast. Discharged Worker’s Testimony. Joseph Nierotko, discharged last | Winter after working at the Ford | plant since 1925, testified at the Labor Board hearing that a man in the employment office, from whom he sought the reason for his dismissal, | showed him a United Automobile | Workers' letterhead and asked him if | he had received such a letter. He said Al Miller, employment man- ager, asked him why he wanted to “fight against Ford” after working there so long. Nierotko testified he replied that “I don’t want to fight against Ford | personally, but I do want to fight against Ford's rotten conditions.” . Crowds Stop Foot Ball Star.
