Hindenburg on Strikes

LONDON, April 21, 12:50 a. m.-A message sent by Field Marshal won Hindenburg to General Groener head of the German munitions department with reference to strikes in industrial communities, has been received here by wireless from Berlin. Field Mar shal von Hindenburg says he recog nizes that the population has been hit hard by the reduction of the bread ration, but that undoubtedly the in- crease in meat and the regular delivery of potatoes will compensate them. He is convinced that the authorities will see to the proper distribution of food stuffs, the field marshal said:
 T am, therefore, quite unable to see how the food situation can be made the ground for strikes by workers while our present position on the western front, which must be fought out there demands an undiminished production of war supplies of all kinds.-~ This is the first task and takes precedence over all others.
 "All strikes, however small may be the means of an unjustifiable weaken ing of our defensive force and is an in- excusable crime against the fighting forces, especially the men in the trenches who bleed in consequence
 A Reuter- dispatch from Amsterdam says that von Hindenburg concludes his messagt by asking General Groener to see that all means are employed to continue the production with dispatch of arms and munitions, and also to have the necessary legislation given the armament workers to that end which ''in my opinion appears the principal condition for attaining our great aim'

 In Agua Prieta it was stated today the shots were not intended for Ameri- can sentinels but had been fired by Mexican sentries at thieves caught in the act of stealing wood from near the boundary line.

 Investigation of the recent explosion at the Eddystone Munitions plant near Philadelphia which resulted in the death of more than 100 persons, and of the recent fire at Minneapolis which resulted in the loss of hundreds of thousands of bushels of grain is pro- ceeding but has not reached a stage, it is said, where announcement as to the findings can be made.
 Thus far, it was said the strict surveillance maintained over persons known to be of pro-German sympathy, has revealed tendency to observe the law more generally than the depart ment had anticipated.
