Feb. 20. A program of non-partisan political action which "will rcsult'in retiring from public life the servants of plutocracy nnd privi lege was urged before n conference of nwre than 100 labor nnd form move ment leaders by William II. Johnsten, president of the International Assecia tien of Machinists, in convening the conference tpdny. The organizations nnd groups repre sented, he declnred, should "get to gether in the several Stales and work unitedly in the approaching primaries and In the fall election nnd elect men who believe In fundamental Amcricun principles." New Party Unwise at Present Mr. Johnsten declared that nt the present time "it would be unwise even te consider the formation of a new poltl peltl leal party." "Let us work through existing or ganizations," he urged the conference. "The politicians are en the defensive. Let us keep them there." He expressed the hope that n new party might be organized In time te participate in the 1024 elections. Lack of understanding nnd lack of commence, snut .Mr. .lohnsten, had en trenched the "forces of reaction In government. If the worker npccntml them, he Is "deemed te a groveling de pendency." The forces threatening free speech and free action, he declnred, nan sanctioned wholesale corruption of the electorate by seating in the Sen ate Newberry, its most notorious bene ficiary," and had used the Federal Re serve system as an instrument "te de de flate nnd crush farmers nnd inde pendent business men und cause nation wide unemployment." pr tien opportunity te meet the expense of harvesting their crops while "the O. B. and Q. Kallread, transporting mucn of tlic farmers' prod uct, declnred i $(.0,000,000 sleck divi dend and a 25 4ier cent cash dividend." Laber Net Wholly Blameless Mr. Johnsten declared the workers thcmeslvcs were net blameless. "We have nlloweil prejudice and petty inferences te divide us," he said. "Why should we continue the foolish practice of permitting many lawyer nnd bankers te pack State Legislatures and the Federal Congress? Mere genuine farmers and workers must be selected ns representatives in our legis lative halls."

Tea te Newspapermen Te newspapermen who were her guests nt ten yesterday she disclosed she dislikes "parties' and prefers the quiet of her country home In Switzer land, where she rides, traps, knits, plays the piano nnd reads. At Mrs. Edith Rockefeller McCor McCer mlck's home, Mrs. McCermlck's sec retary, when told by the Associated Press that the engagement had been announced bj Mr. McCermlck, said .she had net heard of It and knew nothing of the matter beyond what she had read In the morning papers. Miss McCermlck la as unllkn thntvnl. cal Amcricnn society girl as she 1s un like the typical Continental society girl. Speaking with a half-German, half French accent, nhc entertained the re porters with her experiences In acquir ing American siang. "I can any 'open up your mouth nnd let the moon shine In,' " she boasted, nnd in respense te the general laugh which followed, added: "I guess that's the dope." Asked hew long she expected te re main in this country, Miss McCermlck said : "Oh, I don't knew hew long. I was here last year for two months that's nil I could hear. I don't knew hew long I'll be able te stand It this time. Yeu knew I don't care for parties, or the city, or society. I'm se used te tne country. Friends of the McCermicks today said that the consent given te the eniase- input by the family was in line with the training of the children. They always were given free rein in self-expression, se long ns their own whims and desires did net seriously Interfere with their welfare. Muriel nt one tlme demanded n sep arate apartment from the family in New Yerk and the wish was granted. Later she decided te live in n hotel, nnd there was no objection.
