been thrown into confusion by the
announcement that the boiler max
ers' union had voted to refuse to
abide by the decision of the other
unions in the iron trades council in
ordering all strikers back to work.
By vote of 503 to 463 the boiler
makers decided not to resume work.
When advised of this decision, the
conference committee representing
the employers in the recent negotia-
tions, early today issued statement
that should the boiler makers per-
sist in this stand 1--WE will instruct
our members not to reopen their

came with startling suddenness.
When the iron trades council dele
gates met on Wednesday to canvass

Of strikers on the proposition to
accept the temporary agreement,
reached by Federal Mediator McNab
and representatives Of the striking
unions, the council voted thirteen to
four to accept it and resume work.
The boiler Makers pattern makers
sheet metal workers and ship yard
1aborers' unions were the four voting
against acceptance. Three of these
voted later to abide by the majority's
decision and resume, but the boiler
makers refused.
"This means that the boiler max

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S-ChancelIor
Michaelis' sudden decision not to ad-
dress the reichstag publicly on peace,
but to make a secret statement to
the reichstag's main committee, is a
new indication of the floundering in
decision that has overtaken the kais-
er's peace drive.
1t is apparent that the peace
propaganda Is not working out as the
German efficiency experts predicted
among themselves that 1t would. Un-
expected things are happening that
compel the kaiser's spokesmen to
delay staging their farce Of taking the
German people into their confidence.
The instantaneous rejection by public
opinion In the United States and in
the allied countries Of the kaiser's
cunning proposal for the semi-restora-
tion Of Belgium is unquestionably the
reason why the German chancellor
has reconsidered his plans to speak
before the reichstag.
He had arranged to tell the German
people that peace had been brought
appreciably nearer on terms safe
guarding the interests Of kaiserism.
But even the kaiser has lately be-
come aware that the most dangerous
game he can play Is to feed them
with faisehoods. Never before in
German history has Teutonic public
opinion began to form so many inde
pendent judgments as now.
Michaelis, therefore, dared not go
before the refchstag with boastful
words, for the German people must
now know that the kaiser's latest
peace offer has been riddled by criti-
cism. 1t is very significant that, cou-
pied with the announcement Of Michae-
lis forthcoming declaration in the
reichstag main committee, is the
statement that he will discuss the
question.
Having failed to tempt the entente
powers with the promise Of Belgium
into an abatement Of
their demands for the democratiza-
ton of Germany, the kaiser is now
sounding German opinion
concessions in the lost
French provinces. Some kind of ten
tativer offer about AlsaceLorraine
therefore may be expected as the
kaiser's next effort to save the power
Of the Hohenzollerns by compromis-
Ing with the worlds democracies.

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN
THE FIELD, Sept. 2S.-Germany to
day has 6,S0O,O00 men as the "hu
man material" with which to enforce
her demand for "a place In the sun.
This is the man power" that re
anains out of a total Of 14,000,0O(
men who have figured on the German
military lists and passed through
the hands of Germanys military
arbiters.
OF the $500 900, approximately s.,
100000 are actually at the front and
600 900 more are in reserve. The re-
naming 100000 constitute one Of the
greatest tragedies Of the war. They
are the boy soldiers Of the classes OF
1919 and 1920. They constitute the
only resource of human material"
upon which Germany has to draw.
They must fill up losses in the Ger
man army which with no major allied
offensives in progress normally total
from 10000 to $4,000 monthly.
To date, how ever, the German gem
eral staff has not yet succeeded in
imposing on the German people it's
right to seize these youths before
they are 1S. Therefore, this last
drop of potential German manhood
cannot pass into the army except in
piecemeal lots, as the boys attain the
age Of 1S.
The figures cited here are
based upon the highest and most &C.
curate sources of information. From
this same source it Is possible for
the United Press today to detail this
history of Germany's mobilization
efforts.
Before the war, the German army
contained fifty-one divisions Of &c.,
coo men. Mobilization at the decla-
ration of war of all who had previous
training brought the total
to 100000.
But these were insufficient. The
Ersatz reserve, 100000 strong, was
modified of men whose physical con-
dition was trifle under normal
army standard. Then the class of
1914 was called out-450.000 men
who became 20 years old In that year.
In 1915, call for the first band of
bhe landstrum yielded 100000 men;
the 1915 class another 100000;
special call in September for the re-
mainder of the landstrum, 10000
and an advance call for the 1916
class, 100000. Still more men were
therefore Germany combed
out 100000 more by stringent exam
