Searching Questions Asked,

Searching questions were asked by

foundation of William Mackenzie
King, of Ottawa, Ont. TO make a
study Of industrial relations. Reply

was authorized TO go with his plans

dalton asserted that the conduct Of
the work will be left in his hands
subject merely 10 conference with Of
ficers of the foundation and TO its
control as to the extent of expendi-
lures. On this subject the foundation
declared.
1t can not be too clearly understood
that the purpose of this inquiry (Mf.
King'sl is not TO apportion blame In
present or past misunderstanding
nor TO justify any particular point Of
view: the sole purpose is construc-
lively helpful In a work conceived
and undertaken in such a spirit any
question OF divergent policies or of
partiality in the investigation can have
no place The foundation has felt
that if ii could work out sound and
substantial improvements in the re-
lation of capital and labor ii could
hardly do anything better calculated
to promote the well-being of man
kind for which purpose the founda-
ton was created"
Mr. King controls the field. scope

Explaining why the Industrial re-
lations division was created the foun-
dation stated:
While the general subject of eco
nomic research was under conslder1-
ton the Industrial disturbances III
Colorado impressed the president OF
the foundation with the great need
and public Importance Of finding an
effective means of preventing such
conflicts aud caused him to urge
far-reaching study of Industrial rela-
lions as the most important immedi-
ate inquiry TO which the foundation
could direct attention. Ia view of the
passion aroused in Colorado and the
many divergent interests involved
there, il was felt that the foundation
itself should not interfere in that sit
uation. but that ii was of the utmost
consequence that the root causes of
that and similar disturbances should
be ascertained. and. If possible, re-
moved. not only In Colorado but else

stopped the passage Of food for Germany.
The ''WIIhelmina" was the first case stopped,
because Germany had assumed control of
the food supply, and therefore her cargo was
available for the army. The British reprlsals
against the German submarines are strictly
according to law, with due regard to the
lives aud interests Of neutras. The Ger

Justify the commission Of unlawful acts.
England has never assumed the RESPONSE
bllty for the loss OK neutral lives by the
assertion that there was no risk, and nothing
can obscure the fact that the responsibility
rests with the cOmmrnder Of rank superior
to the German officers on the German boat.
In the House Of Commons Lord Charles
Bere~ford and Mir. JOvneou- Hicks presented

cree the internment OF all male alien enc

other alien enemies to places q minimum

London, May 12h-Zepp4lins have been
seen over Sunderland and Yarmouth, but
nothing further in connection Herewith has
been reported.
American residents in Berlin have been
wuIned by high officials against going to Eng
lnnd during the coming fortnight, as impor-
tant Zeppelin raids arc being planned. The
officials explained that the recent Zeppelin
raids on England were mere recounaissunces
TO test the strength OF the British aerial
dofonces.
French airmen have repealed German air
craft approaching Paris.
Add essing the House Of Commons MIR.
Asquith compimented the leaders Of all the
PARTIES because Of their united assistance,
and said it was not necessary to consider u
coalition Cabinet.
There were previously reports that Mr..
Lloyd George md other members of the
Cabinet would retire.
Auti-German demonstrations have Oc-
CURED in London exceeding those in river
pool, and becoming beyond police control
the perritoriuIs hud to be summoned. Attacks
on German shops took place ut Poplar, Lime
house, Stepney, Wdtham9tow, Bothnal Green,
Camden Town and other districts; windows
we've smashed and doors torn down. Two
hundred mombers of the Stock Exchange,
hoading a procession representing several
trades. marched to the House of Common
and demanded the iuternment of rl aliens
from the enemy countries. The Government
has promised to consider the matter. 1t is
announced that all Germans and Austriaus
in Liverpool will be interued, even if natu-
rallied, and they have been urged to leave
for their own safety. Fifty have already
been informed.
The offensive movement of the Allies in
Flanders and Northern France orouses the
hope that a momentous phuse Of the wnr is
proceeding favour0bly from the British point
of view. German reinforcemonts rushed
from Lens and Douqi have thus far failed to
check the dash of the French northward
from ArrQs and the latter have captured
several important German positions.
While admitting their gradual retreat and
heavy losses this Russians declare that the
losses of the Germanic allies have been over
Whelming. For nine days q general frontal
assault on fortified positions by the Austro-
Germans, in irresistible numbers, made it
necessary for the Russians to gradually re-
tire. but they have taken all their cannon,
munitions and camp equipment with them,
and the Russian prisoners taken by the Teu-
tonic forces were mostly wounded who were
unable to follow the retreat. The Russian
lines in Galicia are now holding new posi-
tons and are checking the Austro-German
advance, while in the Baltic provinces the
Germans are reported to be slowly retreating,
the Russians there having been heavily rein
forced.
An authoritative exposition of the British
views of the German Note to the United
States declaring that England is responsible
for Germauy's submarine policy and its re-
suits, has been published. 1t states that
Admiral Won Tirp.tz declared his policy in
December last, bur that a merchantmen and
a hospital ship were torpedoed on January
