fort was made to bring about a strike
Of longshoremen and that when that
failed an effort was made to cause a
strike of seamen. know these
things as well az anything. There
can be no doubt that this foreign
propaganda. with unlimited means be-
hind it, is seeking to cheek the man
ufacture and expectation OF supplies
for Europe.
There is a great hue and cry
abroad in the land" he said that the
workmen should bear the burden OF
hard times. / believe mat when
there is general prosperity from any
cause the workman should nave mas
