 General Strike Necessary
 In a subsequent statement MT. Kep- pier said tonight that general strik e of all the machinists In Bridgeport would not be called uless it was "ab- solutely necessary"
 "We do not want the public,v he continued, "to get the idea that we are warning on the munitions plants by reason of peace opaganda There is as much to that as there was to the expressed belief that German in fluences were behind the movement We view the manufacture of arms just as we would the manufacture of gi- gantic railroad orders in which we were needed to the extent that we could get our demands complied with We want the public to know that we are not tyrannical and I can say for the high officials of organized labor that if the Remington company would back down from what we regard as an attempt to dictate how we shall run our unions, we might let the eight hour demand be settled by negotia- tions before we precipitate strike that will be likely to spread astonish- ingly"

 No intimation has been given as yet in official circles as to what the next American note would contain, but II was admitted among those in author ity that the communication doubtless would convey some hint of the pur- poses and intentions of the United States In case there was further vio- lation of it's rights. The note probably will be brief and according to well in- formed opinion will be in the nature of warning that subsequent violations of the principles contended for by the United States will be viewed as hostile acts. making difficult the continuance of diplomatic relations

UPTON PRAISES TIE
 WORK OF AMERICAN
 DOCTORS IN SERY|A
Says Work Accomplished in Stamping Out Typhus and Other Diseases Has
 Been Miraculous

London. July Miraculous Is the only proper adjective to apply to the work done by American doctors and nurses in Servia," said Sir Thomas Lip ton today, after his return from his second trip to the near east with the hospital yacht Erin.
 As usual" continued Sir Thomas. the Americans excel in organization and pre- ventive measures. The French and Eng fish units are doing good work in the hos pitals. but credit for the work of sanita- ton which is rapidly making typhus a thing of the past. must go to the Ameri- cans. whose magnificent efforts have made them loved by every Servian from the King to the lowest peasant, all of whom seem fully to appreciate the efforts of the Red Cross in their behalf
 When I was in Servia on my first trip continued Sir Thomas, 1t was un- safe to travel in the country, which was then badly infected from vermn as to make necessary the use of antiseptics night and morning. But on this trip no such precautions were necessary, thanks 10 the sanitation reforms enforced by Americans. The hospitals are now as clean anytto be found in Europe, while hotels and dwellings are beginning to ob- serve sanitary regulations.
 At the height of the epidemic there were probably 30O,o00 cases of typhus, but many typhus hospitals now have been closed for lack of patients. At Ghevheli, where Dr. James F. Donnelly. now Ser vias national hero, died, there were once 14oO patients In the American hospital. Now there are only three suffering from typhus.
 Hospitals Now Closed
 "At Uskub I saw in operation the ma chinery with which American doctors and sanitary experts are washing the whole nation. Near the town three long rail- road trains were standing in the midst of a city of tents From these tents there poured an army of naked men car rying their clothing in their hands. Stop ping at the first train they deposited their clothes in car where they were thoroughly sterilized. Then ,the owner proceeded to the bath car, where an at tendant placed him under high pressure water pipes. When he was completely scrubbed the next step was inspec- tion by an American doctor, after which the bather received sterilized clothing
 Population Protests
 Members of the Turkish popula tion which is large in this part of Servia pro- tested vigorously against disrobng for the bath, on the ground that such a pro cedure violated their religious principles, but without avail, for the American sani- tary commission has complete power to enforce it's regulations. After the army O. men had been treated during the day the women and children were given baths during the night.
 ''rhe next day I saw a whole regiment inoculated against cholera with a speed and efficiency almost incredible to any
