States will in no case be the aggres-
sor against either the political inde.

public with his consent.
AT the same time" he continued
she is proposing and insisting upon
similar pledges from all the nations of
the world who have its peace at heart
and are willing to associate themselves
for the maintenance of that peace.
"The very strength Of her appeal in
this direction comes from the fact
that she is willing to bind herself and
give pledges of the utmost solemnity
for her own good faith and disinter.

The letter was addressed to Roy
W. Howard, president of the United
Press, on the eve OF his departure for
South America. 1t was in reply to
letter in which Howard called at

being made by German propagandists

deficiency the remedy has been found
the secretary of war disclosed what
hitherto had been guarded as a military
secret and what the German people
little suspect.
Secretary Baker told the senators
the United States would have a half
million fighting men on French soil
early this year and that one and one
half million American troops in all

This great fighting force, probably
little suspected by the German general

Elemental equipment of the men

governments which have such an excess
of ordnance that they have at their own
initiative offered to supply the guns
and save ships which would be used for
their transport

Dispatches from Holland indicate Labor
Revolt is Menacing

London, Jan. % -- Dispatches from
Switzerland and Holland describe the
general strike in Berlin and other parts
of Germany as much more serious than
indicated by the official dispatches sent
from Berlin.
According to Central News advises

workmen of the Daimler, Borsig, Lud-
wig and General Electric Works are on
strike. Trades Unions are not at the
head of the movement but several
trades are almost completely at stand
still.
Air Craft Factories Involved.
The independent socialists have car

grave in. the suburbs of Lichterfelde,
ll~ringsdorf and JohannisthaI, where

Chicago Goes To Use of Coal Cards

Washington. Jan. 30.-As the re-
suit of a series of unprecedented
storms of an unprecedented winter
which have swept over the East and
into New England more fuel holidays
are in prospect. Railroads are block
AIDED, making the problem of alleviat-
ing the coal famine more serious than
1t has been at any time this winter.
DR.. Harry A Garfield, national fuel
administrator, speaking before 1000
persons in the Billy Sunday taber-
nacle, declared that unless the
weather abates Immediately it prob
ably will be necessary to declare
more fuelless Mondays to relieve the
situation
The sn0wStorms that swept over
the country west of the Mississippi
river stopped all traffic on many OF
the Eastern lines. The handling Of
sufficient coal for homes and neces-
sary war industries became more Of
a problem than it has been since the
Garfield order was issued.
Officials of the railroad and fuel ad-
ministrations were frankly worried,
but explained they did not believe it
necessary to declare another five
days industrial shutdown.
No extension of the official East
ern freight embargo Is necessary, rail-
road administration officials said, be-
cause railroads are now accepting
practically no shipments except of

cause of storms, and traffic blockades.
