CHARGE WORKMEN WITH DELAYING
 WAR MUNITIONS
Investigation Shows That Piece Work System Plays Havoc
 With Output.

Glasgow, June 4-Charges that the supply of war munitions is being held up by the attitude of workmen in the industrial districts are supported by the Glasgow Herald. which has made an extensive investigation of the situation in the Glasgow district.
 The newspapers investigators re- port that in their opinion the whole issue of the war is being jeopardized by industrial inef1ciency and by man. ipulation of work by dissatisfied work men. The following example is given:
 e'One of the practices of piece workers is to drag out an operation for which they are getting what they think is too low price until it takes twice or thrice as long as necessary. They ask for a higher price on the strength of this, and when they have got the price up to the point they consider sufficient they turn to and get the work done in fraction of the previous time in order, to earn the money.
 Such proceedings in ordinary times are part of the standing struggle be- tween employers and employed. But in war time the result is more serious and develops into disloyalty to the state and a danger to the commun- ity
 ''Nor is that aIl These men not only will not work themselves but they will not allow others to work. The restrictions with regard to un- skilled labor are maintained in some of the shops with unabated rfgidity. and the effect is most seriously felt in the ammunition factories where the heed of increased output is most urgent''
 In certain shops, 1t is alleged, row after row of machines may be seen idle, with men idle beside them, will ing to work but forbidden by the shop rules of the Engineering unions.
 The Herald calls for the estab- lishment of military discipline in all establishments engaged on war na- teriaI, and it suggests that the neces- sary authority to handle the situa- tion might with propriety be put in to the hands of the local Arnan1ents Committees, which have been estab- lished by public spirited citizens in most of, the industrial districts in an effort to accelerate the work of pro- yidirg supplies for the front

PARIS STREETS LIKE
 THOSE IN NEW YORK
 FROM SUBWAY BUILDING

Paris, June ,4-Paris is<n not likely even in wartime, to lose its reputation of being the most continually uptorn town in Europe. The construction of it's network of subways and the incidental encouragement of sewers and other underground work is still going on. simultaneously with repay ing and housebuilding. S It has taken three years to tear down the old Theatre des Nouveautes'' and recon struct on it's site two new buildings and the new street the rue des Ital- ians-" Meantime the Boulevard des Italians has been more or less ob- structed at that point and the outlook spoiled by an immense paIisade used as a bill board. It is now announc- ed that the buildings are finished, the bill boards are coming down and an immense moving picture show is to open on the spot where the 'Nou- veautes" stood.
 All the projected subway lines will be finished soon, throwing thousands of Eaborers out of employment, and other building enterprises will suffer until finances are rearranged. But there will be no lack of work after the war in the opinion of city off, cials. The formidable task of lev cling the old Notifications has been held in suspense, partly to- absoRb the labor that would be released from the subway work. This project, alone, will be sufficient to give work to all the 'fterrassiers'' Omen who work with pick and shoveD for years | to come.
 With the disappearance of the for | tffcations and the opening of new bou1evards skirting the parks to be l laid out on the site of the military
 zone, great building boom is an ticipated that will keep all the build | ing trades busy for years

q. s. STEEL CORPORATION IS NOT A TRUST, RULING
 IN GOVERNMENT LAWSUIT
SUMMARY OF DECISION.

The principal points in the rnomentous decision in the sult involving the United States Steel corporation follow:
 The decision refuses to issue any injunction.
 It holds that foreign trade of the Steel corporation is not a violation of the Sherman law.
 It holds certain price fixing agreements which followed the Gary dinner, but which stopped before the bill was filed to have Sbeen unlawful.
 It allows the government to move to retain Jurisdiction of the bill if such price fixing practices are renewed but suggests matters may be now be controlled by the new trade commission.
 It says all the trust eases thus far determined settle down to this, that only such combinations are within the Sherman act or by req son of the interest of those form ing them or the inherent nature of their contemplated act wrong the public by undu1y restr1ctlns competition or unduly obstruct1ng the course of trade
 'srhe test 6f monopoly, the opinion says, .'is not the size of that which is acquired but the trade power of that which is not acouired.'' In the ten years since the Steel corporation was formed, 1t has increased it's business about 40 per cent Nine great competing steel companies have increased theirs more, the lowest one 68 per cent, the highest S7O0 per cent.
 With the completion of the Erie canal, Lake Superior ores can b. brought cheaper to New York ar bor than to Pittsburgh This means, the opinion says. blast fur naces on New York harbor waters
 On the basis of the actual iron units in ore, Cuban ores can be des livered in Philadelphia at one half the cost of Lake Superior.
 Facts and figures show that there is no possibility of Lake Su- pe14or ore monopoly.
 The opinions, two in number, are largely a discussion of whether the Steel corporation monopolized the steel trade or dealt unfairly with competitors or purchasers.
 The opinion says:
 This case, proceeding under the Sherman antitrust law, is one largely Of business facts e

.BASKETRY HELPS TO
 SHELTER SOLDIERS IN TRENCH HOMES

Tarnow, Austrian Galicia, June 4.- Basket work with willow twigs has been dignifed with a place in the sci ence of forth1catton and the art of home making in the trenches The Austrian and German troops, who, for II weeks, lay in trenches along the west bank of the Dunajec river, facing the Russians on the other side, were largely ''landstrum'' men from the Ty- rol, Bohemia, and Westphalia, and mo- where in Europe has The Associated Press correspondent seen anything to equal or even approach Tn comfort and decorative effect the winter homes which these soldiers built along the bank of the river.
 The position which they took did not at first view seem very favorable for a4 comfortable trench-Iife, it be- ing along a dyke of clay in a. Iow-lyIng river valley, but the willows which grew in profusion nearby afforded ma teria to more than make good all de- fciencies. Trenches and the dug-out shelters of the men were first of all lined with basket-work to prevent cav ing-in and contact with the sticky clay. Then the men seemed to have vied with each other in making new com forts from the slender osiers. Nearly

Summer houses of various shapes and designs were built back of the lines later, the most common type be- ing made of four long boughs bent together in a sort of telsee, with a roof of basket-work woven in. On the top of the dyke were the 1oop-holes from whic1 the defenders fired at the Rus sians on the other bank. Each man had excavated for himself a niche. high ,roofed and lined with osiers. from which he could attend to ti2a principal task of a soldier in full com fort and security.
 Sod was cut and brought from a distance and the outside of the houses and the slope of the dykes were care fully sodded with the loving care of a. good lawn artist. With the coming of spring, gardens had everywhere been laid out, each sheIter-hut having at least one, with ei decorative border of stone or sod before the door.
 When the correspondent visited the scene the basI1et-ware homes were empty Polish peasants were turning over the straw in the beds, searching for money or trinkets which might have been lost. or were Carrying away doors, win d.ows and furniture, while tbe soldiers who had built them were roi1es to the eastward fn. close pursuit of the retreating Russians.

to ship-owners was that a certain cargo steamer built in 1910 at a cost of $85, 600 was recently sold for a hun dred and fifty thousand dollars an increase of 76 per cent. over the ort- ginal price.
 While the ship-owners complain of unfair treatment by the Admiralty, which has taken over many merchant ships as transports, the arbitration board which has settled disputes in these matters consists almost entirely of s11ip-owners. At the time the board was appointed shipping prospects looked exceedingly dull and the owners clamored for Government service. A rental of nine shfllings six pence per ton gross register was decided upon. with 8 discount of six pence a ton for vessels e~~ployed for more than one nlontf1,> and another six pence off for vessels employed more than two months. Since then the sh1p-owners have demanded not only the shilling reduction be removed but that they be given an increase If two shiIlings six pence over the contract scale or instead of losing .25 they have asked for an in crease of SO

LABOR SEES NO REASON TO
 GIVE BRITISH EMPLOYERS THE
 SOLE BENEFIT OF WAR NEEDS
Workers Demand Share in Prncey Profits Made by Manu
 lecturers of War Munitions n Empire

London, June 4.-The reason why the workers who remain at their places in British industries are asking for war bonuses is explained by Sec retary Robert Williams of the Ma uonal Transport Workers Federation, who says that while the real need of the workers is to meet the increased cost of living, the employers are reap ing exceptionally large profits, instead of suffering from the war Although T., 1000 members of the Seamen's Union have gone to the war; the merchant ship-owners are operating to such ad- vantage that they charge six times the normal sums for carrying freight While 750, GOO trade unionists alto gether are bearing arms in Britain's defence, the mif4ers have increased their profits four-fold.
 In his case against the ship owners, Williams points out that they now have no serious competitors in the carrying trade of the world, and that as a result of the elimination of Ger man ships, the freight rates between Argentine and British ports had jump ed from $2F and a fraction a. ton to around s17.

 LUNCH FOR STARVING

Warsaw, June 4.-The work of the Rockefeller commission in the relief Df Flock, capital of the government of that name, fifty miles northwest of Warsaw, is described by a resi- dent who escaped the vigilance of Herman patrols and escaped to this city. He said that until the arrival of the Rockefeller representatives there was organization for the re- lief of the poor, the local commit tee being entirely without funds. The bakeries were turning out only army bread made almost entirely" of pota- Eoes and selling at 12 cents a pound. There was no rye or wheat bread at Rny price. while eggs were selling at 15 cents apiece. All the copper money has been collected and shipped flo Germany. All milk products were appropriated by the German staff for its own use and for the thirty hospi- fa1s in the city.
 The country for twenty miles ground he described as a total waste, By order of, the German authorities a tax of $25, 900 was levied upon the city and pending it's payment five prominent Poles and five Jews were being imprisoned. The Rockefeller representatives had established two free-lunch places, one for the Polish popu1ation and one for the Jews.

 While by reason of its distance, Canopus is, to us, reduced oFthe pro- portions of a star,'' he says, 'it is a formidable sun, two million, foar hundred and twenty times larger in volume than our sun; it is equal in volume to three billion one hundEAd forty-six million earths. It is dis tant from us the equivalent of four hundred e ighty-nine years of light travel.

LAUNDRYWOMEN OF PARIS FORGED TO THE WALL BY
 ECONOMY OF HOUSEWIVES

Paris, June 4-Thousands of wash erwomen employed in the tIavoirs'' (pubHc washing houses) of Paris and in the laundries on the banks of the Bievre at Arcueil, Gentilly and Bachan are facing a serious crisi- After nine months of war many families whose budgets have diminished are retrench- ing, using oilcloth instead of linen on the table and doing their own light laundry work. Many rich families have remained in their country houses. In consequence, only one-fourth of the actual force is required in the laundries around Paris. As a solution of the resulting problem the Municipal Councillors of the, Commune of Ar cueiI propose that the soi1ed linen of soldiers which is exchanged for new garments at the front be shipped back to be laundered. At present great quantities of clothing are lost that might in this way be saved, and at the same time give employment to the washerwomen-
