We got mad and told him he would

way. We even hazsrded a suggest on
that he wouldn't find one In London
who would nd Dr. Newton's sermon

This Is the message brought 20 Amer
lean labor by visiting British labor men
now touring the United States Joshua
Butterworth Of Newcastle, secretary Of
the Shlpwrights' Association, is a fresh
skinned north count~yman with gray
hair. a big gray mustache and twink

old-fash'oned red flannel underwear
that Britsins still cling to, and the big

His big knuckles and brawny arms
proclaimed him a sure enough work
ingman. Three husky sons in the Brit
ish army. one wounded In hospital, and
me in the navy make the war very real
10 him.
Before couscription had ever been
adopted. every workingman in Britain
had his own flesh and blood at the
front" Butterworth said.
I'VE want no ueace which viii leave
The slightest chance for this bloody
murderer to be let loose agoin. We
were not ready for this war and didn't
believe il was coming. So we had 90
put OUR sons up to stop with flesh and
bones the steel war machinery n The
Huns. But we have the tools now and
we are going to nnish the job
Butterworth says that Americans
need not worry about minor friction in
industrial establishments. When the
American boys get over In the tren-
ches. and the casualty lists begin 90
roll in, the difficulties will be ironed
out. The unions and the operators viii
simply get together and pool their cf-
