New York, April 26.—Samuel
Clampers, president of the American
Federation of iAbor. i.ssailed the ad-
ministration of rostmaster General
Burleson In a statement Issued here
today declaring that he mii't "walk
the plank sooner or Inter."
Mr. Gompers charged Postmaster
General Burleson with carrying out
"an archaic autocratic policy in the
conduct of the postal, telegraph and
telephone services of the United
mates," and said he "needs only a
wider field and a better opportunity
to fit hiui for succession to some of
the world's best known but unla-
mented ex-dictatori*.'* Mr. Gompers'
statement follows:
Text of Statement.
"The troubles of postmaster Gen-
eral Burleson, which In a recent
statement he attributes to n plot or
a conspiracy on the part of- the
American publishers, ore not due
solely to any dispute there may have
been between the postmaster general
and the publishers, to whom he re-
fers The most recent example of
Mr. Burleson's autocratic nature does
not come as a surprise to those in
the labor movement, who have come
In cntact with hi* administration.
A Stinging Criticism.
"l,abor was long ago forced to the
conclusion that Mr. Hurleson was
completely out of sympathy with the
trend of American thought and was
totally unable to ■ comprehend -what
America meant when It declared war
upon autocracy everywhere. Mr.
Burleson needs only a wider field
and -a better opportunity to fit him
for succession to some of the world's
best known, but unlamented ex-dlc-
tators. The only difficulty In Mr.
Burleson's way Is that the world has
received the decision tliat It wants
no more dictators. The Urilfed states
postoffice department is one of the
very few places In the world not yet
In accord with that decision.
Resentment Increases.
"Long before the United States
government took over the telegraph
system of the country. Mr. Burleson's
co!d and autocratic 'treatment be*
came known to the workers engaged
In the postal service. Naturally re-
sentment has followed this course
and this resentment has Increased In
volume exactly in proportion to the
Increased field over which Mr. Bur-
1 >son rule0.
'The workers In various branches
of the postmaster general's depart:
ment have come to understand thor-
oughly that democracy and the post-
office have nothing in common ex-
empt that they exist under the same
government. Time after time these
employes have endeavored to secure
the opportunity to be heard by the
postmaster general through their
representatives for thp purpose of
presenting grievances or Just causes
for complaint. They have sought to
lav before him their complaints in
order that they might have his con-
s'deration and In order that an ad-
justment mirht be brought about
through the democratic procedure of
negotiation, '''liese pleadings for an
opportunity < be heard have been
In vain, as they have been frequent.
Own Experience Unsatisfactory.
"My own experience with the post-
master general has been or a similar
nature. Acting for the workers. T
have had a number of conferences
with him In which I have endeavor-
ed ti> induce him to grant the op-
portunity to his employes to be heard
through their representatives. These
efforts of my own have also been In
rain.
"It has been .rather a favorite
pose with the postmaster general to
appear a» a high - minded person,
generous and sympathetic with his
employes. Always. however, this
sympathy has been defined by him
to mean that if anyone of the em-
ployes had anything to present td
him that employe might come and
present the case. Under any clr^
eumstances such a course would he
unsatisfactory and intelligent em-
ployer* nowhere attempt to deceive
anyone with that ancient and long
elnce exploded idea ' Only the most
reactionary and brutal employers
still endeavor to deal with the work-
ers as individuals.
Altitude Ridiculous.
"Tn the case of the postoffice de-
partment, however, where the em-
ployes are scattered throughout the
United States, such an attitude as
that assumed by the postmaster gen-
eral becomes not only ridiculous and
preposterous, but constitutes an af-
front and an Insult to the Intelligence
of the men and women In his de-
partment and to the citizenship of
the country as well

(Associated Press Dispatch.)
Killeen has again gone over the top.
In every Liberty Loan campaign since
the war began this town in the west-
ern part of Bell county has gone be-
yond lis quota. The Victory I^oan
went over In a blase of glory. In less
than two hours $48,500 was subscribed
by the variously estimated at from
seven to ten thousand persons.
Miss Maybelle Duncan sold $30,000
worth of bonds and was awarded a
ride in a government airplane. She
was taken through all the stunts that
the aviator knew and then asked for
more. Mrs. Sam Rancier bought
$3,200 worth of bonds and was de-
clared the winner of the ride for buy-
ing more than anyone else.
The streets of the town were roped
off and the thousands of people pres-
ent were treated to a delightful picnic
lunch. Never In the history of the
town were there so many people on
the streets of Killeen. Never In the
memory of mun was so much food
eaten In one street. Hundreds of Bell
county boys in uniform were present
and were the heroes of the day. One
of the atunts was a special drill by
returned soldiers. The band from the
OatesvRle training school rendered
good music all the flay long.
When M. P. Dulton, local chairman
for Killeen, announced that the sub-
scriptions would begin he and Sam
Rancler, who acted as teller, were
swamped with the applications that
poured in. Sergeant Coubrough, Brit-
ish war hero of Galllpoll, made a stir-
ring speech JuHt before the bond buy-
ing started. Judge Mallory Blair
called Killeen's honor roll, including
the names of those who gave their
life for their country. Then the money
began to pour into the hands of those
who had the campaign in charge.
The final count was $48,600. This
does not include Notanvllle'* part
which will be subscribed In a special
day arranged for Monday.
INQUIRY ABOUT CONVICT LABOR
ON FARM ELICITS TART
REPLY.
I Associated Press Dispatch.)
Washington, April 26.—Replying
late today to a telegram from Charles
Johnson Post, director of the pub-
lishers advistory board, regarding the
use of convict labor on his plantation
in Texas, Postmaster General Burle-
son said:
"Answering your wire. The full
facts in connection with the lease to
the state of Texas of the plantation
In which I was interested upon which
the state used its convict labor and
Ihe terms of the contract In connec-
tion therewith, have been placed he-
fore the congress more than once and
have long been a matter of public
record. It would be quite interesting
for you to publish now and later havo
laid before congress the facts in the
same detail about moneys raised and
spent to secure the repeal of the none
postage rate law. Of course you
know as the New York World did
when it published this falsehood, that
I did not use convict labor on my
plantation but that the plantation v.as
leased and cultivated by the state of
Texas and the convicts used thereon
were at all times under the
state's ovecutive control and manage-
ment."
I^ater Mr. Burleson issued a state-
ment declaring that the resolution
adopted yesterday by the publishers'
association committed it to " a peti-
tion for the repeal or suspension of
theNlaw Increasing the rate of postage
on newspapers and magazines."
"This makes the issue plain," said
Mr. Burleson's statement, "should
the law be repealed or should it be
permitted to stand?"
"However much selfish publishers
may attempt to camouflage the situ-
ation, the thoughtful, intelligent vend-
er will not lose sight of the real issue;
Shall the old time 172,000,000 postal
subsidy be restored to the few para-
site publishers who, have for years
plundered the postal revenues?"
Tin: WEATHliR.
East Texas: Sunday and Monday'

$177,000 IN NOTES
BOUfJHT IN TEMPLE
Subscriptions at the Temple Vic-
tory Loan Bank took a spurt yes-
terday and $32,000 carnt. in from
subscriber*. This according to the
men In charge Indicates an ap-
preciation of the public duty of
quickly reaching Temple's quota.
The amount credited to Temple
now Is $177,000 for the flv# days
of worn.
While this Is considerably over
half of Temple's quota, the man-
ager* of the campaign realize that
the last half is the hardest half to
get. The committee urges that ev-
eryone who has not been in to ar-
range for the buying of bonds make
it their personal business to visit
the bank the first thing Monday
morning and help wind up the
thing as quickly as possible. The
government's business should come
first, they say, so it is suggested
that this be attended to so that
other business can become normal
again.
SHOWERS ENOUGH TO INSIIU'
GOOD GRAIN CROPS IN
THIS BELT.
To the Temple Telegram:
Winters, Tex., April 28.—"Good,
slow rain here today Insures biggest
grain crop In our history.
"EASON."
The foregoing message, received by
the Telegram last night, and similar
reports tn the news dispatches which
follow, will bring good cheer to the
many people of this section Interested
in central west Texas—who have been
anticipating one of the largest grain
crops of recent years, which Is to be
marketed at the highest guaranteed
price on record. While all reports in-
dicate light rains, these—according to
farmers who fire regarded as keen
crop observers—are Just what Is need-
ed at this time. It Is pointed out that
the wheat Is now at the stage where
a little more moisture Is necessary to
fill out the grain, whereas a heavy
rain would lay many fields on the
ground.
There were flurries and "threats of
rain" in Temple last night, but up to
midnight there was uothing more than
a shower. It seems, however, that
central west Texas was visited pretty
generally With light rains.
(Temple Telegram Special.)

general rain started here this morn-
ing at 10 o'clock and up to the filing

"The second question is to estimate the gravity of the

have taken the worst into consideration. At this moment
Italy is ready, and greater than ever—greater than in May,

LEAGUE.
(Asuociated Press Dlspatc*.)
Washington, April 26.—Senator
Polndexter, of Washington, republi-
can, in a statement issued here to-
day, said the Italian situation was a
typical case in which the league of
nations would require America to in-
tervene to enforce peace.
"If President Wilson would keep
his hands off," he added, "and de-
vote his attention to American af-
fairs. a Just peace would be artang-
ed in Europe in a week."
(Associated Press Dispatch.)
Paris, April 26.—In high quarters
the (question Is being considered of
issuing some form of a Joint state-
ment bringing out the fact that Prem-
ier Lloyd George and Premier Clem-
enceau are in agreement with Presi-
dent Wilson on Flume and other
phases of the Italian problem.
Paris, April 26.—This has been one
of the most anxious days of the peace
conference with all eyes turned to-
ward Home.
While the work proceeds on the
final details of the treaty before the
meeting with the German delegates at
Versailles, the absorbing topic every-
where was the Italian issue and the
effect It liUd in store 'for the confer-
ence. Brief Information reaching of-
ficial quarters showed the situation
at Rome to be very tense, with anti-
American sentiment running very
high.
All Delegates Gone.
The departure of Baron Sonnino
and Signor Salandra at 2 o'clock this
morning for Home took the last of
Italy's plenipotentiaries from the
scene of negotiations.
President Wilson Joined the Amer-
ican delegation at the Hotel Do Crll-
lon at 2 o'clock for a conference and
then returned to the "White House"
for a renewal of the council with
Premiers Clemenceau and Lloyd
George.
Experts who attended the meeting
of the council yesterday, said that the
members looked "completely worn
out," but the president today showed
no outward evidence of this strain as
he wore his usual buoyant smile.
.Standing Willi United Slates.
All Indications point to the fact that
Premier Lloyd George and Premier
Clemenceau are standing squarely
with the president on the Italian issue,
thus presenting a united front of the
principal great powers. Further writ-
ten statements have thus far been
withheld in order not to niflame
Italian sentiment further, but friends
of the president took steps today to
relievo htm front being the sole per-
son to bear the burden and this may
lead to some public declaration of
the British and French attitude.
Initials on Statement.
In the meantime it can be stated
that President Wilson's copy of his
Italian declaration bears the initials
of Clemenceau and Lloyd George.
Besides this initialed approval of
the British and French premiers, an-
other written document exists which
was prepared immediately after the
Issuance of the president's statement
with a view to expressing approval
and support from the highest British
official quarters. This is not from
Lloyd George, but from one able to
speak with authority on foreign af-
fairs. It is devoted chiefly to Flume
and Is against the Italian position and
in support of the president.
It Is significant that the name of
Italy has been Included in the final
draft of the peace treaty, indicating
that the allies hold no change in
Italy's status as signatory of the
treaty.
It will be In this form presented to
the Germans next Wednesday unless
exceptional conditions intervene.
Italy is similarly included In the
appendix to the revised covenant of
the league of nations giving the names
of the countries forming the league.
Allocating the Shlpfl.

Washington, April 26.—The allied
maritime transport council at Paris
has determined to allocate enemy
shipping among the associated gov-
ernments, "according to the ability

(Associated Press Dispatch.)
Washington, April 26.—Dismissal of
the suit brought by the state of Kan-
sas attacking the government's au-
thority to interfere with intrastate tel-
ephone rates was asked in a brief filed
today in the supreme court in behalf
of Postmaster General Burleson. It
charged that the proceeding is in real-
ity a suit against the United States
without its consent.
Rumanians Continue Advance.
Basel, April 26.—The Rumanians
continue their advance on Budapest
from the south and on Friday morn-
fng were on a line from Varsares-
Nemeny-Nireakta to south of Glula.
At the close of the first week of
the Fouth Liberty Loan campaign, the
time corresponding to tonight in the
Victory Loan drive, subscriptions of
$855,133,000 had been rolled up-—
$ 150,-OOO.OOo more than has been sub-
scribed this week. Since tho Fourth
Loan was larger than tho current is-
sue, the percentage at the end of its
first week was 14.25 where as 15,58
per cent of the Victory issue has been
subscribed.
The St. Louis district stands first hi
the percentage column with 30 per
cent of Its quota already subscribed
and covered with initial Installment
payments. In volume of sales. New
York has $180,000,000, the largest
sum.
It developed today that government
agencies. Including the department of
Justice, have taken steps looking to
Investigation of reports that Liberty
bond "scalpers" are doing a thriving
business in many localities by buying
up bonds of past Issues at very low
prices. These bond brokers. It has
been reported urge persons to sell
bonds already bought and to sub-
scribe for the new Isstle of Liberty
noti'g.
In some cas^s, brokers have paid
as little as $70 for $100 bonder, al-
though the markets for all past Issues
are above $00.
Other reports to the treasury are
tij the effect that operators In large
cities have established what they call
"Liberty Bond exchanges," offering
to take bonds in exchange for cheap
Jewelry or other merchandise arid to
pay a cash balance.
Prevention of fraud or of sharp
practices in these cases rests largely
with local Liberty Loan committees,
it was said, since grounds cannot of-
ten be found for prosecution under
federal law.

Home, April 26 This morning's
Lome newspapers in commenting on
the peace conference situation lay
particular s'ress upon declarations of
the solidarity of the Italian people
in demanding that Flume shall be-
come Italian. The I'opulo Romano
says the fact that Leonida Bissolatl,
the socialist former minister, demands
possession of Flume by the Italians,
should convince President Wilson that
nobody in Italy Is likely to take his
message seriously
The executive committee of the lib-

"There are two questions. Tho

The response was thunderous,
shouts of "Yes."
"I never doubted it," continued
the premier, "for 1 know the soul of

"The second question is to esti-
