PRINCE HENRY WANTS RETAKE
 YACHT PRIZES
Calls Meeting tp Bring Out Large Number German Challengers for
 Race

BERLIN, September 1:- Prince Henry of Prussia has taken the initia- tive in regard to German participation in the German-Anenean ''sonder- class yacht races, which were won by the American boats at Kiel last year and which are to be repeated at Marblehead in 1913. At a meeting Of yachtsmen called by him. steps to bring out a large field Of German chal- Iengers were taken.
 The desirability of sending over three types of boat, one for light winds. one for moderate breezes and one for heavy weather. was recogniz- ed, and yachtsmen planning to order new yachts for the international strug- gle were asked to communicate with the SondeRClass committee of the Imperial Yacht club. so that the new craft should be divided as evenly as possible among the three classes.
 Slight hopes for success are enter. tained, as the German designers have not so far produced single boat markedly superior to those defeated last year while American progress is taken for granted.
 An imposing list Of army generals has been detailed to participate in the naval manoeuvres in the North Sea this autumn aboard the battle-ieet They are headed by Field Marshal von der GoltZ, reeorganizer Of the Turkish army and Germany's first strategist. who, it is generally assumed, would command the German forces if war were tG break out: and include Gen. yon Moltke. chief of the German gea. eral staff; Gen. won Heeringen, minis ter Of war; Gen. Mudra, chief of the Engineer Corps and Inspector general of Qualifications: Gen. GallwitZ, In- spector-genera of field artillery and the commanding generals Of the third. fourth and nineteenth army corps.
 The assignment Of so distinguished party Of officers to the naval ma noeuvres indicates that more emphasis is now laid upon the cooperation Of the army and navy in possible future war than before was the case, and il will undoubtedly cause perturbation in England among those preaching the possibility of a German invasion of Great Britain under cover of the strenthened German fleet.
 Germany's contribution to the Car negie Palace Of Peace at The Hague a monumental gateway and doors m artistic wrought iron. is now on eX- hibition at the Berlin Academy The work was produced in compliance with the resolution unanimously adopted al the Second Peace Conference n 1908, calling on the governments sig natory to the Hague Convention to contribute toward the Peace Palace building material or decorative ob- iects typical of each cOuntry's indus try or products.
 The doorway. which was designed by Prof. Bruno Moehring of Berlin consists of two large main portals, with leaves bearing designs symbolic of peace. and smaller entrance doors on either side. also most artistically worked in wrought iron.
 Labor unrest in Germany has spread rapidly in the last twenty years. Fig ures show occasional recessiOns, but on the whole the labor wars increas- ed steadily up to 1911. In that year. although the number of strikes and of firms affected increased only about 90 per cent, the number of workmen affected jumped from l33.S2l in 1910 10 277 7.345. an increase of more than fO7 per cent. In 1891 there were put two strikes in the metal trades. invOly- ing two factories and only I94 men. In l9O8 there were 90 strikes, inyolv- ing 622 factories and 3.54s men. There was a slight recession in 1901, but in 1902 5.OI7 men were on strike and the number trebled the succeeding year and had risen to l17.952 in 1906. In 1908 and 1909 the figures dropped surprisingly to about 40,OO0, the only recessions Of importance in the twen- ty-year period.
