British ambassador The subject
of their conference was not stated
but it is known to have concerned
the expediting OF the movement of
American troops to the theater of
war.
As TO plans for expediting war
preparations on this side Mr.. Baker
would make no comment. He said
he was not ready to make any an
nouncement as TO the aviation pro-
gram or organization The report
has been current for many days that
William c. Potter. now in charge of
signal corps production, will be ele-
waited TO A higher and more author
itative post with similar duties. 1t
was rumored today that Henry Ford
might be selected to handle airplane
production much in the way that
Charles NJ. Schwab has been placed
in charge Of ship building.
More Than Defense.
From reports Of the battle prog
ress officers pointed to the appear
ance OF French reinforcements in
the northern sector of the Flanders
line as indicating more than a de-
fensive measure. The troops must
have faced hard days of marching to
reach their post. but it was said that
had the movement been only to back
up the British lines it would have
been more logical and sucker for
them to have gone into the south
relieving the British divisions to
support their comrades i'm Flanders

TRANSFERS AND METAL CRAFTSMEN
STILL ON STRIKE FOR A LIVING WAGE
During the Week Bring No Results Because Employers
Influenced by Bosheviki Dreams of Herb George
Moocher; Eighty More Metal Tradesmen
Accept Government Jobs Elsewhere.

non-union shop, is blamed by both the
teamsters and metal tradesmen for the
strike, as he prevented the employers
from entering into agreements that
would be satisfactory to the unions
concerned.
Eighty more machinists, black
smiths and boilermakers on strike left
this week to accept government work
in San Francisco and Seattle Mt 80
cents per hour. They were engaged
by the government employment
agency with Offices in the Postoffice
building. An employment agent from
Erie, Pa, arrived in Denver this week
to engage all metal tradesmen to go
to that city who wished to leave Den
yer. The pay there, as in San Fran
cisco and Seattle, is 80 cents per hour,
with price and one-half for all time
over eight hours.
The Denver men agreed to work in
the contract shops here on the terms
to be awarded by the government la
Dor war board. This the employers
refused to accept. Less than half the
original metal trade strikers are now
in Denver, and the shops have prac-
tically suspended operations.
Denver labor bulletin., 1918-05-11

While several conferences have
been held this week between commit
tees of employees and employers, with
Judge Musser, federal mediator, no
settlement has resulted and members
of the Transfers and Chauffeurs
Union, and of the four metal trades
in contract shops, machinists, boiler
makers, blacksmiths and patternmak-
ers, are still on strike. The total
number of men involved is about one
thousand.
Contrary to predictions of employ
ers, the Transfers strike has been on
week without single disturbance
of consequence. Twelve of the smaller
transfer companies have signed the
new wage agreement and their en-
ployes returned to work. All Red
Cross and army supplies, as well as
perishable goods, have been moved by
the strikers. Large quantities of
other goods are piling up in the
freight houses, and the demand of
shippers and receivers for settle
ment is becoming very insistent.

find themselves without protection.
Thus the employer, the employe, his
dependents and the public have all
been deceived and cheated, because
forsooth the accident occurred beyond
the imaginary line that marks the
boundary of the commonwealth, tho
it happened within the line of en-
ployment.

Four smiling pallbearers and a
happy host of mourners accompanied
the remains to its last resting place.
Paradoxical as this may sound, it was
the manner in which funeral services
were held Thursday night by Denver
Local No. GAL, Amalgamated Meat
Cutters and Butcher Workmen of
North America. The ten-hour day
was buried face downward by the 1,5O0
union employees of the Denver packing
house plants.
The big hall was crowded to an
overflow At brief business session
held before the obsequies, forty-seven
new members were obligated and forty
applications read by the secretary.
Forty-two new members were initiated
at the previous meeting.
Before the funeral ceremony began
Secretary Ed Anderson of the State
Federation of Labor made brief ad-
dress. He assisted in organizing the
Denver packing house employees last
June, and therefore took occasion to
congratulate the new union for its
wonderful progress during the past
ten months.
The eight-hour day became effective
in all packing house plants last Mon
day Here in Denver the employees
go to work at a. M, have half an
hour for lunch at noon and the whistle
blows to knock off work at 3 80 p. m.
This is vastly different from the old
non-union conditions when the days
work extended over ten and twelve
hours, at a much less wage than now
received for eight hours.
Four pallbearers entered the hall
bearing coffin draped in black. In
side there reposed a skeleton, typify-
ing the dead ten-hour day and low
wage regime. The pallbearers were
