UNCLE SAM MAY
 TAKE OVER ALL
 BOATS ON LAKE

Washington, May 4.-Government operation of all great lake vessels has been asked by seaman's unions in an effort to avert strike which union leaders told the shipping labor confer ence today was inevitable otherwise.
 The .seamen are ready to strike, the leaders said; because of the refusal of the Lake Carriers association to join with the shipping board and the union in the conference to consider means for recruiting men for the merchant marine and because of bitterness growing out of an alleged repudiation by the association of an agreement made with the union last year.
 Nothing is left for us to do but to go back and clash" said Thomas Con- way, representing the marine firemen. we want it understood that we have offered the government our co-opera- tion in every way and that we are not responsible for what will happen in the near future.,'
 Victor O1ander of the Lake Sea mems union, said the unions demand ed that the Lake Corriers association follow the example of Atlantic ship owners in permitting the training ot new men.
 not develop their own men and will continue to drain the Atlantic coast, '' he said. "The kaiser captures some of the seamen going east, the lake car riers get them going west"

CONGRESS MAY
 TAKE HAND IN MAIL CONTRACTS

Washington, May 6-A deadlock over mail contracts involving the postoffice department and the Inter island Steam Navigation Company which has a monopoly of transporta- tion between the islands of the Ha- waiian group may result in applica- tion for congressional action, accord ing to Otto Praeger, second assistant postmaster general.
 Four-year contracts for carrying the mails between the island are ex- bring, and when new ones were pro- posed in February, the department found that acceptance of the bids would entail an annual payment of more than 100 per cent. over the $40,- 900 formerly charged for the service. The islands, scattered over several degrees of latitude and longitude above the equator, are still being serv- | ed, but the government has refused to pay the new price, has offered in- stead 25 per cent increase, and the | company has refused that
 As remedy, the department is considering asking Congress for leg islation which will compel transporta- tion companies to accept mail for car riage at the rates made for carrying express MT. Praeger said. '"The Hawaiian situation is typical of oth- CTS arising in seaboard sections of the United States. If we had now power to compel the Hawaiian island carriers to accept the mail as ex- press, that situation could be cleared up rapidly.
 "Also, the same power, if granted by congress, would operate to get bet ter and cheaper service elsewhere ir the United States"
 Hawaiian mails are increasing ir volume, and in number of points ot dstination to be served, the depart ment records show. Mail goes by tht trans-Pacific steamers to Honolulu and thence is distributed by the smaller ships making the inter-islant passages.

ALIENS TAKE NO RISKS FIGHTING
 AGAINST THE HUNS; LEGISLATION
 TO THAT END BROUGHT BY TEXAN

recognized one such orgaization. The Czecho-Slovak Army has been made a part of the military forces under the French high command, although autonumous and operating under it's own flag. Jews, Armenians and Syr- ians residing in the United States be- fore April 6, 1917, when America went into war, are among the people who will be benefited by this resolu- tion."
 Aliens here before the United States declared war on the Central Pow CTS and who heretofore have been conscripted for service with the United States Army or who have volunteer ed, or who may hereafter go into that army voluntarily or by draft, may be readmitted to the United States, under the resolution, if they apply for readmission within one year after the close of the war. This class of aliens will be permitted t0Y return notwithstanding they have not de- clared their purpose to become cit izens.
 The resolution also authorizes the return to the United States, within one year after the end of the war, of aliens residing here prior to April G. 1 1917, Who had declared their citizen ship intentions and who have enlisted for military service with any one of the co-belligerents of the United States in the present war, or with the Czecho-Slovak, Polish or other independent forces attached to the | United States after being honorably discharged or furloughed abroad by proper military authority.
 In brief. the resolution only pro- poses to give these aliens the status and rights they had as lawful resi- dents of the United States prior tc April 6, 1917, but, in recognition of their service in a cause in which the Americans are engaged, it proposes that would otherwise be collected when they return. The immigration committee reported it as "an act o1 justice to people whose services are valuable and who by associating themselves with us, or with the allied powers in Europe, incur unusuaa | peril"

BIC FUTURE IN : OIL INDUSTRY
 FOR MEXICO

A prominent official of the Mex
 can Department of Industry and Commerce, in recent interview, de- feared that at present not one-tenth of the petroleum produced in Mexico is utilized-or rather that could be produced by already existing wells
 Thre are many wells that have a cap acity of ten, twenty and thirty thous- and barrels daily, yet which are only utilized to about ten per cent thereof
 This is due to lack of means for con- veying the oil by pipe line, etc., to points of embarkation as we'll as to lack of shipping for carrying it to points of consumption in various DOT tions of the world. Many of the smaller companies have as a result been obliged to offer their product for as little as ten, twelve or fifteen cents per barrel, when at the same time it was worth in the American market from a dollar per barrel up- ward. Various companies with pr- ducing wells have preferred to store their oil or to shut off production in the hope of better prices which will | follow better facilities for shipment.

GERMAN PRESS
 ADMITS BRITISH
 ARE CH|vALROUS

Amsterdam, May 4-Count Revent- low, in an article headed British Chivalry and Self Advertisement" in the Deutsche Tages Zeitung com plains that the German press recent ly went so far as to admit that the British are chivalrous to an enemy This he considers insufferable.
 The count is incensed particularly because the German papers express ed satisfaction of the manner in which the famous German airman Capt. Baron von Richthofen was buried by the British, and says:
 we cannot accept these socalled henors as sincere. It is all advertise ment. Our enemies forget to tell us what enormous sums they received for bringing down Richthofen. All members of the flying corps who buried our hero are nothing but war profiteers."

FRENCH MOTOR UNIT OF
 NEW YORK CITY CLUB

The problem of getting 7,500 val Ions of gasoline and 200 gallons ot motor oil to France-the amount ne cessary to operate eight trucks for six months-was successfully solved by the Motor Unit of the New York Women's City Club. 'It had to be solved" said Mrs. Ernest Thompson Seton, chairman of the War Service Committee of the club, flor our trucks had to have the gasoline and France could not furnish it"
 The trucks for which these supplies were needed were the eight trucks sent to France by Le Bien-Etre du Blesse woman's Motor Unit of the New York Woman's City Club. These trucks are of the lorrie type, " writes Mrs. Seton, with canvas cover over the ribs, on a Ford chassis, eX- tra heavy springs, extra equipment painted French gray, as this Unit has been accepted into the French Army Eight trucks have been shipped and ten women chauffeurs qualified, re- presenting an expenditure on the basis of six months maintenance ot nearly $3O,OOO. Mrs. Cyrus W. FielG has had charge of the motors anc chauffeurs' tests; Mrs. Robert T Morris has examined the chauffeur: for French.
 'The first two trucks sent over art now operating in Paris, carrying sup plies from the warehouses to the die kitchens; and probably by now thu next two trucks are carrying the ho food from the diet kitchens to thu Sfirst-aid dressing stations on tn French front"

LORD MAYOR OF
 DUBLIN AWAITS HIS PASSPORTS

London, May 4-The Dublin cor respondent of the Express quotes the lord mayor of Dublin as saying in an interview that he was expecting to receive passports soon for a visit to Washington.
 T go as a special representative of Ireland" the lord mayor is quoted as saying. My task is simply to state Ireland's reasons for resisting con- scription. President Wilson will, l feel sure, listen to me; Lloyd George and Bonar Law did recently in Lon don.'
 The lord mayor has a son serving in the British army and he cited this fact as evidence that he was not dis loyal.
