Special oy United Press Wire.

New York, Dec 30.-Men and
women garment workers numbering
80 900 affiliated wstN the United Gar
ment Workers OF America, went on
strike today to enforce demands for
the short work days, increased wages
and sanitary working conditions.
The Employers Association, which is
acting at unit In opposing the de-
mands of the strikers, were confid-
ent that the strike would fizzle. The
statement was issued that they re-
tanned over so per cent of the regu
lar workers. The employers blamed
the leaders for the strike. and said
that the majority OF the workers
were we'll satisfied with their condi-
tions, and that II the strikers de-
mands were satisfied many of the
small concerns would be thrown into
bankruptcy.
Representatives Of the state de
partment were endeavoring to get
the two sides together on the face OF
compromise, but 1t was not believed
they would be successful. Mrs. o..
for the relief OF the families OF the
strikers.
Representatives Of the strike com
mittee met the workers as they ar
rived for work this morning and noti-
fed them that the strike was official
ly on. Most of the workers returned
and went directly to their meeting
rooms where enthusiastic speeches
were made The speakers pleaded
for "no violence, peaceful picketing
and solidarity" and 1t was asserted
that the entire strength Of the Am
erican Federation of Labor would be
behind them to the end. All were
confident and insisted they were will
ing to suffere for q time so long as
they win in the end.
Although the men understood when
they quit work on Saturday that the
strike was assured. they fairly swarm
ed in and about the Forward building
at yesterdays meeting to hear the
inal decision. 1t was received with
enthusiasm, and committee of 1000
was appointed to 60 through the shops
all over the city to see that the strike
order was obeyed. or at least that no
worker should remain at his post In
ignorance Of the plans for the labor
war.
The principal demands Of the strik-
ers were for an eight hour day. for
the abolition of tenement house work,
subcontracting and foot power and
gas pressing engines. The workers
want higher wages. amounting to a
20 per cent increase, with minimum
wage scale of $40 week for girls and
$18 for men. with overtime. and es-
pecially holiday overtime. to be re-
warded with increased rates.

ed his subject into three parts: The
things that we ought not to have

of the things that we, as country,
should not have done and then IS a

the granting Of new saloon licenses
this year among the things which
we ought not to have done. Mr..
Northrup said we have more saloons
for our population than any city in
the State except Atlantic City, and
we did not want to be compared with
that place. He said that there had
ought not to be one more saloon

that have proven good and the things
that have improved. At this service

ed down and deep cut made in his
tight leg when bus of the Perth

its way to Roosevelt, struck him. f3a
narrowly escaped being thrown un-

Mr.. Keim had placed his left foot
on the bottom step of the car and

and threw him on the pavement.
His leg, below the knee, was ripped

attending physician was DR.. William

to standstlll and the driver and
men from the car picked up the
aged man and put him in the ma

MAY CALL ON
AMBASSADORS
TOBRINC PEACE
Believed Only Way to End
BaIkan-Turkish Deadlock.
Special By United Press Wire.

London, Dec. S0:--There was
growing conviction today among
diplomats that the only solution Of
the Turkish-Balkan deadlock was
the arbitration by the ambassadors
of the Great Powers. 1t was learned
today that there was among the
Turkish delegates a disposition to
lay the matter before the ambassa-
dorial conversation at the foreign
office when they are resumed Thurs
day In the event that the Turkish
and the Balkan ENJOYS do not get
closer together before that day.
It has been believed from the out
set that the informal consultation
suggested by Sid Edward Grey, for
eign minister, would lead to a for
NAL ambassadorial conference and
this might be called for at once to
consider the Balkan tangle. In the
event that an ambassadorial confer
ence is called to arbitrate the Turk
ish-Balkan difficulty 1t is likely there
will be a disagreement between the
triple alliances and the triple en-
tente. In diplomatic circles 1t is
known that Germany, Austria-Hun-
gary and Italy favor making auto
nomous Albania an extended state,
while England, France and Russia
favor restricted boundary for the
country.
