Dan Griffiths, young Welshman,
who was formerly employed in this

having been badly gassed during a
recent battle, according to the Welsh

Gently decorated with medal for
bravery in battle. He has been in
active service in France for the past
two years, on December 3, and is a
sharp shooter, having been acting as
a "sniper," with his company. In a
recent letter to his sister he states
that he has just returned from the
trenches after q 'big drive" during
which he had many narrow escapes. A
piece of shell hit him in the arm,
tearing away piece of flesh, and he
regretted that the wound was not bad
enough so they would send him home
to "Blighty," as the soldiers call old
England. He said he would have en-
joyed such a furlough home.

NATIVES ARE TAKING
OFFICES ON ISLANDS
Great Changes Being Made in
Philippines; Americans
Retiring

Manila, November 25.-ICorres-
pondence of The Associated Press. i
More than half tbs Americans former
ly in the employ of the Philippine
government have been retired since
July, 1913. There are now a few more
than 1000 Americans in the service
whereas, four years ago, just before
the arrival of the new democratic ad-
ministration, there were more than
$500. Meanwhile there has been a
steady increase naturally in Filipino
employees of the government, the list
showing LOCO.
The law which permits Americans
of long service with the government
to retire with a three-year pension
ranging from &C per cent of years
salary to the full amount, is largely
responsible for the number of Amer
lean retirements which have increased
very largely since the law was passed
The past year has seen 400 retire
n1ents slad ttsarp2 seses& year saw@al-
most as many more.
The policy of the Harrison admin
istration in training Filipinos as rapid
ly as possible for responsible posts in
the government service has made the
successors of these retired Americans
almost entirely Filipinos. This fact, to-
gether with the increasing activities
of the government, due to increased
prosperity in the islands, is responsible
for the big increase of Filipinos in the
government service

London, Eng. December 26.-A
conference that will be held today
between Premier Lloyd George and
other members of the British cabi-
net together with labor leaders of
the United Kingdom will prove, it is
thought, to be one OF the most mo-

taken place since the war opened.
The conference will take up dis
cussion of the demands of union lab
or in it's relation to the war. 1t is
understood that while organized
labor pledges it's loyal and unfailing
support of the war it will ask for
some concessions. 1t will ask for a
league of nations that will give as
surance against any commercial war
after the present war of shot and
shell is over
