social phase ended this evening with
the governments dinner, at which Pre-
mier Lloyd George presided.
Even the semi-social engagements
have been directed toward fuller un-
derstanding and a closer cooperation
between the British high command and
General Pershing and his staff. whom
Colonel Buchan to-day termed the
equal OF any general staff in the world
The American officers will leave Eng
land with a fairly complete knowledge
Of British intentions and methods.

the war staff, and topped off the day
with the government dinner at Lancas-

Although the officers and enlisted
men of the party attended strictly to
business to-day, as throughout their
stay. they were loud in their praises
Of the cordislity which has met them
everywhere, and especially of the small
attentions paid TO them by strangers.
The officers were escorted this after
noon through the House OF Lords by
Lord Denmsn, and later visited Kings
College.

Demands Return Of Trans

munication given out here to-day says,
in commenting on President wilson s
note TO Ru ia, that he return OF
Alsace-Lorra,ne to France; Trent,
Trieste, Istria and Dalmatia 70 Italy;
Transplant. TO Rumania. and Bosnia
ana Herzegovina to Serbia would not
have the character Of annexation, but
rather OF restitution OF territory.
president Wilson's message TO Rus
sis is a lucid. sympathetic and ener-
getic document" says the conmunlca-
ton. American good sense has gone
directly 10 the heart of the enemy'S
treachery. The aims for which the
United States entered the war, as
stated by President Wilson. agree per-
fectly with those of the Allies. Presi-
dent Wilson explains, confirms and
supports them.
The Interpretation which President
Wilson gives to the principle of no
annexation corresponds in spirit with
the thesis maintained by the Allies.
The return of AlsaceLorraine 20
France; Trent, Trieste, lstria and Dal-
malta to Italy; Pennsylvania 70 Ru-
mania, and Bosnia and Herzegovina TO
Serbia do not have the character OF
annexation, but of restitution OF terri
tory.
"An equally excellent effect is pro-
duced by President Wilson's distinc-
tion between the national principle and
the colonial principle, which means
condemnation of Turkey and recogni-
,ion of the right of civilized countries
TO colonize TO insure liberty for Africa
and Asia.
Finally. the phrase stating that the
day has come TO conquer or submit Is
considered an admonishment 10 Russia
which. it is hoped. will understand Its

diplomatic difficulties with Austria in
December, 1915, because OF the Petro-
lite. On December 3. while bound
from Alexandria 10 Philadelphia, in
ballast, she was fired on by an Aus
trian submarine in the Mediterranean.
The moment the submarine appeared
Captain Thompson stopped the Petro-
lite. but the submarine continued
shellng the tanker. seriously wound
ing one Of the sailors. The subma-
rine commander then ordered a small
boat to be sent, and demanded pro-
visions from the officer in charge Of
it. Captain Thompson refused to ac-
cede to the request, unless compelled
to do so. The provisions were finally
sent, as one Of the Petrolite's seamen
was held as hostage for their safe
delivery.
A long series of notes followed be-
tween Secretary Lansing and the vi
emma Foreign Office, in which Lansing
characterized the attack as a "delib-
crate insult to the flag of the United
States and an invasion Of the rights
Of the American people"

NORTH YAKIMA
TRADES AND LABOR
COUNCIL RESOLUTION

Whereas, for some months past in
dustrial troubles have prevailed at
Everett, Washington and vicinity,
arising chiefly from that strike of
the longshoremen and the single
weavers of that community; and
Whereas, on Sunday, November s,
1916, deplorable and bloody conflict
occurred in which seven men were
killed and about fifty wounded; and
Whereas, such intense feeling has
been engendered as renders it diff
cult to ascertain the facts and deter
NINE the causes responsible for the
tragedy; that the matter is of such
Importance and the situation so grave
that the welfare of this state as we'll
as the cause of justice, demands that
all the material facts be ascertained:
that on one hand it is contended BY
the employers and their sympathizers
that an armed and lawless BODY of
Industrial Workers of the World went
from Seattle to Everett on board the
steamer Verona for the purpose of
committing various offenses against
the public; that on the other hand it
IS contended that the said passengers
on the Verona were not armed and
that they were going to Everett for
the purpose of asserting the right of
free speech, which has been illegally
denied them, and lawfully protest
against the methods used against the
strikers and their sympathizers by
the officials, special agents and dep
utles hired by the employers; there
fore be it
Resolved, by the North Yakima
Trades and Labor Council, assembled
in regular business meeting this 29th
day of November, 1916, that we earn
estly request the Congress of the
United States and the President to
investigate all the facts connected
with, ard the causes leading to, the
said tragedy and to report thereon.
to the end that ways and means NAV
be devised to prevent the recurrence
of such deplorable evens.

The best woman labor speaker in
America is in Seattle. Elizabeth Cur
ley Flynn, "the Joan of Arc Of the
Labor Movement" will devote the
next few weeks of her time to the de-
Tense Of the IA men in Jail in Everett
charged with murder.
Elizabeth Gurley Flynn has been an
agitator since her fifteenth year. She
has been brought up in the atmo-
phere Of the working class movement
and it has entered right into her soul.
Her vivid and appealing oratory can
sway thousands of workers because
it proceeds out of an intense sincerity.
She has been in nearly every great
fight the Industrial Workers Of the
World have engaged in for the last
seven years. In Spokane, Wash, dur
ing the Free Speech Fight in 1909, she
was arrested Since then her arrests
have been many: Philadelphia, Pat
erson, New York, Missoula and other
towns have known her in the clutches
Of the law for her upholding of the
rights Of Free Speech and labor or
eanization.
The great strike of 10000 iron ore
miners in the Mesaba Range in Min
nesota was the last scene Of Miss
Hymns activities. There she was a
power in the building up Of the min

she visits there is a revival Of enthu-

The movement in this county at
present is remarkable for its lack Of
activity. Indications are that the
result Of the election was such a dis
appointment to so many that they
have laid down on the job. Of course
if they were class conscious the mat
ter Of a few thousand votes would
matter very little to them. We have
failed in the past to teach the CLASS
STRUGGLE, too much emphasis has
been laid on political action, and too
much time and money spent to get
votes. The County Committee will
meet on the 26th inst, it may do
something to liven things up.
Yours for solidarity,
