War Profits a Factor

The government agents SAID
enhemeral war prosperity was the
cause of the strike. Other concerns
on Constable Hook making war NUM-
tions are paying common laborers as
bigh "a $3.50 a day. This situation
created unrest among the Standard
employees.
Superintendent Hennessy argued
that the Standard could not meet
these wages. because any raise gwen
tho Standard men would be permia-
nent. whereas when the war stops, the
munitions workers will be without
employment altogether.
Mr.. Mofftt, Mr.. Smyth and Com.
missioner Of Public Safety wilson OF

ing agreement the terms which VIII
govern the recent strikers.

NEW FILMS MAKE WAR
SEEN MORE PERSONAL
Battle of the Somme" Seen at
Private Showing

The all-absorbing idea which takes
possession Of the mind IS one watches
the Battle Of the Somme" on the
screen Is Keep Us out Of the war at
any cost" Heaps Of mutilated bodies
lying in grotesque attitudes once were
men-the same men which wound In
a long trail FOR miles and miles across
the horizon. Laughing and carefree
they came and went, brave In kilties or
khaki, on their way TO meet with q
smile "the greatest adventure in life."
The pictures make the war personal.
One feels acquainted with the soldiers
and realizes that vast as the armies
of the war are they are made up Of
individuals, each with e world OF his
own.
Il Is apparent in the fln;s that In
dividually the Allies and the Germans
do not regard each other as enemies,
for the kindliest feeling Is displayed:
All the literature In the world could
never give one so clear an idea OF the
war as is obtained by a view OF these
pictures. The films were shown pri-
vately yesterday. They will be re-
leased at the Strand Theatre next week.

Third Ave. Co. Expects More
Strikers Will Seek Jobs Again.

Edward A. Maher, IT., assistant gen.
eral manager Of the Third Avenue Rail-
way Company, said yesterday after
noon that forty-three striking motor
men and conductors had returned 70
work since F. W. Whitridge, president
of the trolley system, announced that
the insurance policies OF the men. car
ried by the company under group
contract with the Travellers Insurance.
Company of Hartford, would be can
celled on October 20.
This number is not so large as va
had hoped" said Mr.. Msher, "but We
expect more TO return within a few
days. We have heard indirectly from
many who say they will come back 10
their employment in order that they
might not lose their insurance policies.
Most Of the men who have now been
out of work for two months will think
twice before they will permit their
policies TO lapse and deprive their fam
lilies OF benefits in the event OF their
death"

BAYONNE PEACE
UP TO MEDIATORS
Oil Workers Rely on Them
to Win Concessions
from Company

The 1000 strikers in the BaYonne
nlant Of the Standard Oil Company
returned TO their tasks yesterday, con-
ten. with the settlement engineered
bv John A. Motif and James A.
Smyth, Investigators for the Depart
ment of Labor.
while the settlement makes IL clear
that no raise in wages is promised IL
is understood that a good chance re-
mains for the poorer paid employees
obtaining a slight increase after MOI
fit and Smyth confer with George D.
Hennessy. superintendent OF the plAn' =
70 arrange a final adjustment OF the
strike issues. The men returned u
their Jobs merely with the pledge thaI
a channel will be opened TO the men
10 obtain redress of working condl-
lions.
Due to Misunderstanding
Il took Mr.. Mofitt and Mr.. Smyth
onIv short time 20 ascertain that
m. deadlock between the striker ana
the company was due TO mlsunder-
standing. When the workers struck
thew presented their demands in this
fasbion-a 30 per cent increase in pay
for employees earning less than 50 a
dav and a 20 per cent increase for
those making over that amount .
What the men actually meant TO
,ask for was a 30-cent-a-day raise for
THE cheaper operatives, and 20 cents
for the others. The men earning
81 20 a day wanted $3.50 and the 50
men wanted 1920.
The main complaint against WORK
ing conditions consisted OF the chsrge
~ certain Irish foremen discrimi-
mated against Polish laborers. Mr..
Hennessy assured the mediators that
this condition. if it exists, would be
remedied at once. The men also OBJ
tanned the privilege Of taking their
grievances by committee TO the super

UNIVERSAL DRILL CALLED 0NE-STEP
Straus Sees Administra.
ton as a "Hesitation" at
Alliance Dinner

Cheers for Roosevelt. and Kisses for
Bryan marked the dinner Of the Hughes
Alliance last night at the Hotel Aston.
It was almost a reunion of Bull Zoos
ers, and though the diners have ac-
cepted the mantle Of Republicanism
they have not been able 10 change their
Compartments. Oscar S. Straus was the
toastmaster, and Miss Alice Carpenter,
chaiEnan of the women's committee OF
the Hughes Alliance, was one Of tn
original Moosettes.
Mr.. Straus characterized the Wilson
policy in Mexico as a hesitation waltz.
Wilson's Hesitation Waltz
ut has been one step forward, two
steps backward, one to the side AMI
then turn around" he said.
George Haven Putnam, a reformed
Democrat, told why he was on the Re-
publican side this year.

1880" he said, "and IN 1912 I vent
down 70 Baltimore and worked FOR
Woodrow Wilson. had great hopes
Of him, but have been disappointed
and so have thousands of Democrats.
Woodrow Wilson has failed because
he has failed TO understand the moral
purpose of this country, and in a great
crisis, when he had great opportun ties
and large duties, he has not been equal
TO his task
When the war broke out, when Bel
gum was invaded he should have
formed league of neutral nations
which would have protested against
the warfare on non-combatants and the
use OF submarines as agents for the
killing OF women and children. This
IS the first war in modern times when
the lives of women and children have
not been safeguarded.
