The appeal " is signed by Charles Edward Russell, president;. Henry L. Slobodin, vice president; William English Walling, secretary, and J. G. Phelps Stokes, treasurer. i The statement declares that a third party is impracticable, as “the Ameri- can political system could not sup- press third parties more effectively if it had been specially created for that purpose.” The alternative proposed, which is called “The Workers' Inde- pendent Political League Plan,” is claimed to be in successful operation in Minnesota and to give ‘“‘every promise of actually capturing the whole machinery of that state for the cause of labor and democracy and electing a dozen congressmen and a senator in_ the fall .election.” As to what is to be accomplished by the new political action, the statement speci~ fies four main objectives: “Abe’ition of the excessive power of the courts over. legislation; control over credit to be taken from financiers and vested in a public agenay, coupled with government daministration of the direct and trithful means of revealing excess cost and profits and so of prevention of hoarding and unfair price fixing; and urrestricted right of collective bars gaining.” The statement denounces impartial- v the renublican and democratic par- ties. It asserts that the'democratie party, “commicetly reversing its ad- mirable war reccrd,” has tried to “de- stroy organized-labor by the manda- tory injunction and has taken ' the blame for the hizh cost of living off the shoulders of _the profiteers and placed it on the back of-labor The an party clared to* he ng even th~ Bourbon the supnort of reaction- trust ~ magnates and PHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS ME ALTITUDES FOREXTR Jan. 18.—The pos- of photegraphinz in - space ove the earth's atmosphere is sug- sted in_n_statement made for The Associated Pre day by Dr. Robert H.

My reason for this is not because I believe'the for- mer is entifely unrealizable.

Roper, commissioner of the bureau of internal revenue, that forms for making income tax returns, which will be in the hands of all internal revenue collectors and ready ‘for dis- tribugion tomorrow, will contain a sec- tion providing that tenants shall in- clude in their statements the amounts of rents paid and to whom it was paid. This information will be turned over to the department of justice to be used in its high cost of living cam- paign. “The tenants are doing the drivi and holding the whip,” Mr. Roper said. “Profiteer landlords will be held to! their straight and narrow path in the payment of their, income taxes. Re- venge is sweet to the tenant who has had to dig deep into his earnings to pay a high rental in 1919.

COMMITTEE ACTIVITY IN CONGRESS THIS WEEK Washington, Jan. 18.—Committee activity will dominate congress this week, comparatively minor matters being up for concideration on the A.F.of L. to Opp MW@WML ‘Washington, Jan, 18—Formal an- nouncement that the American Feds eration of Labor would oppose “with whatever power it may possess” the enactment of _the anti-sedition °bills' now pending in congress, was made today in a statement issued by Sam- uel ‘Gompers, president of the fed- eration. ' The attack of organized labor, its chieftain_indicated, would be directed impartially against the Sterling: bill, | recently passed by the. senate, and! against the Graham measure, based on suggestions of Attorney General Paimer and awaiting action by the héuse rules for a special rule to ex- pedite consideration. Referring to the two measures as one bill, President Gompers declared its enactmeht “woutd violate the constitution and rob the whole American people of their most cher- ished and basic guarantee of free governmeng” “If the Wmerican people and in| fact a majority of the members of the members of congress,” Mr. Gom- | pers asserted, “were awake to thej dangers concealed in this bill, a storm| of indignation would sweep the na- tion. . t has been. widely advertised| that this measure potects free speech tully, but prevents advocuey of forei ble revolution, bolshevism and anar- chy.
