the street department crew has been
doing a good piece Of work for the
past two days along lower Water
street in patching the tar macadam
pavement in front of the federal
building. where It had become worn
away along the sides Of the tracks of
the Lewiston, Augusta & waterville
Street Railway. In some places the
tar macadam was worn down to the
depth Of three inches or more below
the top Of the rails. In repairing such
places the ruts have been filled with
crushed rock after which they have
been given a coating Of tar and then
rolled. The results attained thus far
appear to have been satisfactory.

nave been made in the sidewalk at the

FURTHER LABOR
TROUBLES LOOM
UP in ENGLAND
BY Ed Ii Keen

Dy Eu ~ hefHt
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
London. June i2.-(By mail) The
labor troubles on the Cylde are over
for the moment
That there will be further strikes
in this big munitions making district
is not only feared, it is expected.
Opinion in England today is divid.
ed as to the real reason why some
5000 worlSmen, at the most critical
period of the war, downed tools in de-
fiance of the government and despite
\ the patriotic appeals o ftheir own la
Dor union; but there are a few who
will dispte the assertion that the sit
uation was sadly mishandled by the
authorities.
In the first place the fact that a
strike was on hand was concealed I'M
til the last possible moment.
Then, instead of acting with vigor
under the acts of parliament which
forbid strikers in munitions factories
on any ground whatever, and prompt
ly arresting the offenders, the gov
ernment compromised BY merely de-
porting the ring-leaders to another dis.
trict.
That these men we're not given a
public trial is resented as much by
workmen generally as BY their asso-
ciates.
Such trial would doubtless have
brought out the underlying causes Of
the strike. The charge has been freely
made that German influences, includ-
ing German money, were responsible.
This is hotly denied, not only by the
men involved but by labor leaders
generally.
It is much to the credit Of organized
labor in this cCEtry however, that
the strikers have been roundly de-
nounced by the responsible heads of
the labor movement.
Even those labor headers who are
avowed pacificists like George Lans-
bury have condemned them.
I'VE pacificists," says Lansbury,
"dare not interfere with the essential
supplies needed by the army and navy
until the nation gives the word to
stop the war 1t is simply murder to
send men out unarmed and improper
ly equipped. 1t is our own flesh and
blood in the trenches, and at whatever
cost, we who remain at home must do
nothing to hinder them"
Lansbury ascribes the troubles on
the Clyde chiefly to lack Of sympathy
between employers and workmen, sim
liar to that prevailing in the South
Wales coal fields.
One Of the most radical, as well as
most troublesome, labor leaders-bc-
fore the war-was Ben Tillett, Of the
Transport Workers union, who in the
last few months has been going up and
down the country preaching patriotism
and loyalty among his fellow workers,
and urging them to join the army.
