JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., June 12,
—The hand of organized labor's en-
emies Is seen in at least four pro-
posals of the 73 thus far submitted
to the Missouri state constitutional
convention In session here. Apropo-1
sitlon by E. G Robinson of Maysville
would authorize probate judges t
issue temporary injunctions. H. P. !
Lay of Warsaw is the author of a j
proposal to abolish the initiative and
referendum. A proposal to declare
strikes, boycotts ov other proceed-
ings "interfering" with freight or
passenger traffic unlawful, and to
clothe the governor with power to
invoke the police and the military i
i power of the state to quell such "ln-
' terferences" and protect and move '
traffic, has been laid before the con-1
vention by J. H Lucas of Oceola.
Want Industrial Court.
, The convention has been also
; asked to write Into the organic law
of Missouri a provision for an anti-
strike court, quite similar to the one
now in operation in Kansas; A. N.
Gbssett of Kansas City offering the
proposal. The court would be au-
thorized "to hear, investigate, pre-
vent, settle and determine in respect
to wage and other industrial disputes
and conflicts." The proposed tribu-!
nal would be clothed with power to
"enforce its judgments, decisions or'
orders, whether preventive, correct-
ive or otherwise." The court might
also be given jurisdiction over con-
troversies under the workmen's com-
pensation act. Attempts to interfere
with relations of employers and em- j
ployes under bases fixed by this
court would be declared a punishable
offense.
The two latter measures are ex-
pected to bring scores of trade union
representatives to Jefferson City to
oppose them, and all other efforts
to abridge the rights of the workers.

WASHINGTON, June 12. When the
Hardiug administration took office
with an overwhelming verdict of ap-
proval at the polls, it was met with
general good will, but already, after
only 15 months of power, veteran
newspaper correspondents and politi-
cal depesters are predicting that
Harding is destined for only one
term and will leave office even more
discredited than William Howard
Taft.
Taft s administration split on the
Bnllinger-Piuchot controversy, but
the discreditable incidents revealed
by that famous dispute seem insig-
nificant compared with the expo-
sures already made concerning sev-
eral of Harding's official family.
Attorney General Daugherty has been
getting moie than his share of pub-
licity of late, but those "In on the
know" declarc facts equally diimning
will be brought against several oth-
er cabin't officers in due time.
Kali Vulnerable.
Next to the attorney general. Sec-
retary of the Interior Fall seems
most vulnerable to attack. He has
thrown the oil lands and water pow-
er sites of the west open to exploi-
tation by private interests, and the
natural resources of Alaska have
been surrendered to the Guggenheim
Interests without a struggle. It was
charged on the floor of the senate by
\j& Follett? that the recent lease of
public oil lands to the Sinclair in-
terests was tipped off in advance to
speculators and that at least four
senators werf given inside informa-
tion and profited by the rise in
stocks.
The war department has permitted
the sale of huge amounts of public
supplies at prices which are ridicu-
lous in relation to the real value of
the property; and representatives of
the International Association of Ma-
chinists charge that in the navy de-
partment every effort is made to
throw work to private contractors
instead of having It done by the
government arsenals and navy yards.
j Officials of the naval department
also were active in breaking up the
seamen's union and in launching the
open shop" drive by discriminating
against members of the machinists'
union.
1'ollyanna Spirit.
Secretary Hoover has been kept
very busy trying to inject a "Polly-
anna'' spirit of optimism into de-
jected business men. but he occa-
sionally finds time to strike a blow
at organized labor. Hoover con-
stantly interferes with other depart-
ments and is generally supposed to
be the moving spirit behind our re-
fusal to trade with Russia or to
participate in the Genoa and Hague
conferences. Hoover also is busy
cultivating his own presidential
boom and powerful financial and
industrial Interests undoubtedly will
shove him forward as the successor
to Harding in 1D24.
Secretary of Labor Davis and Sec-
retary of Agriculture Wallace aro
merely sideshows to the "Big Top"
j which Secretary Hoover runs. It is
I common knowledge fn Washington
I that Hoover virtually directs both
Davis and Wallace and the public
service facilities of these depart-
i ments have been considerably cur-
tailed as a consequence.
Hughes is the biggest disappoint-
ment of the administration. Despito
| the ineptitude he displayed as a
presidential candidate in lOlfi, he
had many admirers whq believed
he would terminate the secret poli-
| cles of Knox and Lansing. Instead
of this, the conduct of our depart-
ment of state never has been on a
lower plane, even under Lansing.
Hughes has tried to compel Mexi-
co to surrender certain principles of
its constitution as the price of
, recognition; he has continued our
murderous policy of Imperialism in ■
Haiti and San Domingo; he has per-
sisted in interfering with Nicaragua
and other Latin-American republics;
| and now the department of state is
, tacitly encouraging if not activelv
aiding the oil interests who recently
overthew the Guatamalan govern-
1 ment and are extending Wall Strr t
! imperialism to that country.
