Admits Passport Plot Aims to Strike Longshoremen
Federal Judge sentences Harry Max Zelinka to one month in Blackwell Island and a $2000 fine for aiding a German born man to obtain an American passport under a false name. The case ties Teutonic agents to plans to mobilize 23000 dock workers on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. O'Connor of the International Longshoremen's Union testified that he was offered $10000 to help incite the strike and then provided evidence to the government. Other labor figures subpoenaed include Dennis Driscoll and William F Dempsey as federal probes widen.

Weeks law re enacted to conserve timber lands debate
Gov Locke Craig and Joseph Hyde Pratt urged timber conservation at a hearing as the House agriculture committee considered restoring the Weeks law to purchase Appalachian watershed and forest lands. The plan would cost about 2 million dollars yearly for five years and bring 3900 to 4000 acres of timber land under government control annually. Senator Weeks and others argued the nation must reserve land for timber growth, a view echoed by the American Forestry Association which backs development of reserves with returns.
