UNION CONTROL
March Conventions Will ‘Decide Leadership Of U. A. W.
© DETROIT, Jan. 25 (U. P)-—A ‘dual union struggle for the - estimated 400,000 members of the “United Automobile Workers of America was precipitated today by the disowning of suspended Presient Homer Martin, and the recognition of his union enemies by the ‘Congress of Industrial Organiza- ~ tions. Mr. Martin charged that the C. I. O. had split the union because he resisted the “dictatorship” of its president, John L. Lewis. The announcement that the C. I. O. no longer recognized Mr. Martin as head of the union was made in Washington yesterday by Sidney Hillman and Philip Murray, C.'I1. O. - vice presidents. They said he had “identified himself with dual unionism and arrogant deflance of a labor union.”
Recognized Opposition : They recognized an| anti-Martin
* faction, which organized last week
with R. J. Thomas as president and is backed by 15 members of the U. A. W. executive board whoni President Martin ha suspended. The members, constituting a 'majority, retaliated by s Me Tho Mr. Martin and electing Thomas in his place. Mr, Martin said that “it is important for the entire labor movement that the C. I. O. adds to its record of fostering and promoting dual unionism for the purpose of splitting those unions which prefer democracy to a dictatorship.” Mr. Martin’s following in the
union will remain uncertain untill March 4, when it will hold a con-!
vention here to elect new officers and change the constitution. Mr. Thomas’ faction has called a convention at Cleveland March 20 for the same purpose.
Overture Expected
It was believed Martin would seek aid of David Dubinsky, who led his 250,000 members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union out of the C. I. O. last. year in protest against the setting up of a permanent C. I. O. in opposition to the American Federation of Labor. The I. L. G. W. U. remains unaffiliated, with Dubinsky advocating peace between the C. I. O. and A. F. of L. He and Mr. Martin have been riendly. Of the 24 original U. A. W. executive board members, President Martin suspended 15, three others joined his foes, and Mr. Martin is conceded the support of only four members in addition to himself. The other, Charles Madden, Pontiac, Mich., has not committed himself. It was reported in Washington that Mr. Thomas would replace Mr. Martin as a member of the C. I. O. executive board. Mr. Martin did . not have that in mind, apparently. . He said: “If this action is representative of the attitude of the C. I. O3 I am ready to tender my resignation as a member of the executive board of the C. I. 0.” Asked whether he was quitting the C. 1. O,, he said: “It appears that the C. I. O. is leaving me.”
G.0.P.IN CONTROL OF OWEN RELIEF BOARD
SPENCER, Jan. 25. (U. P.).—Republicans today controlled the Owen County Welfare Board for the first time in several years. Judge Fram M. Martin named four members, three of them Republicans, to replace members he had dismissed recently for permitting political activity in the welfare system during the last election. New appointees are Wylie Lowe, Wayne Township Trustee, and Herman Stockwell, Taylor Township Trustee, and Tom Franklin, County Farm superintendent, all Republicans, and Mrs. Margaret Brown, Spencer, a Democrat.. The fifth board member is Mrs. George Moore,

Real Fire Halts Showing of ‘Too Hot to Handle’ In Marion.
MARION, Jan. 25 (U. P.).—Four hundred persons watching the movie, “Too Hot to Handle,” thought it was a joke last night when an usher jumped onto the Lyric theater stage and asked them to leave in orderly fashion because the building was afire. But when they saw flames licking at the. ceiling in the rear of the auditorium, they lost no time in clearing the house. Forty-five minutes later the blazing roof crashed
into the auditorium, injuring several firemen. Loss was estimated by Fire Department officials at $50,000. Injured were Capt. Wesley MecFarren, 50; Frank King, 36, and Glen Cole, 38. Capt. McFarren and Mr. King were pinned by falling timbers as they entered the burning building to fight the flames from the inside. Mr. Cole, manning a hose at the rear, received a crushed right arm when a brick wall collapsed. The fire completely destroyed the newly decorated interior "of the theater. Cause of ‘the blaze was at-
tributed by firemen to defective wiring. A crowd of several thousand per- & ‘joined the 400 theater patrons
in the street as 45 firemen and six pieces of apparatus fought the blaze. The fire for a time threatened several adjacent buildings.

Battle Against Slot Machipes
SPRINGFIELD, Jan. 25 (U. P.).—Illinois threw 350 State Highway Police today into a war on slot machines and gambling syndicates linked with political corruption and with six recent murders. Organizing for a concerted drive against the “one-armed bandits,” Acting Governor Stelle and Attorney General John E. Cassidy made a joint demand on "102 County Sheriffs and Police Chiefs throughout the
| State to confiscate the gambling devices.
Mr. Steele also announced an al- O——————————————eeoe__
most unprecedented move in which State Highway Police would be enlisted in the campaign. He explained that if city and county authorities did not confiscate the machines and did not ask for assistance of State Police, the State force would be ordered to take action on its own initiative. Two resolutions were introduced in the State House of Representatives yesterday calling for an investigation of the manufacture and sale of slot machines and of charges that the .gambling devices were linked with murder and corruption. “In the past two or three weeks,” he said, “six murders have been committed in the State—four in socalled downstate counties—which have characteristics of gangland executions. Enough facts have been uncovered to relate these murders to the syndicated slot machine rackets. “Illinois cannot tolerate or tem-

campaign after slot machine racketeers were suspected of the recent killing of Anton Miller, Peoria antigambling crusader.
