Presently Tsidore asked for a glass OF

OF the premises was fruitless. Sheriff

LABOR BOARD STOPS

plOyment Service.
Special Despatch TO THE suS


WARRINGTON, July 3l.--Control OF re-
cruiting and distribution of 10000. 900
workers in the United States among the
war and essential Industries will be un-
dertaken tomorrow by the Federal En-
ployment Service. acting In conjunction
with the War Labor Administration and
other agencies of the Federal Govern
ment. This action. II Is believed here,
will affect larger percentage Of tho
population OF the country than any act
of the Government heretofore.
The first aim Of the Government in
putting the plan into operation Is to
end the labor turn over" for the dura-
ton OF the war. Careful inquiries
throughout the country have shown that
the turn over" is about 400 per cent
for the nation--that is. an industry en-
ploying 100 workers will hire about 500
individuals In the course OF a year The
endless migration Of workers has null
tiplied since the outbreak of the war
owing TO wage inducements and the ac-
tivities OF private industrial recruiting
agents, to as high as 5000 per cent.
in some Of the larger cities.
Individual employers no longer may
solicit additional employees except
through the Federal employment service.
A resolution adopted by the board to-
day announces a firm opposition to high
profits on the part of industries and
commercial enterprises and unreasonable
demands on the part OF workers. II Is
stated that the employers should have
during the war only such reasonable re-
turns as will assure the use of their
plants for the nations cause in the war
and that the physical well being OF the
workers should be assured in view OF
the war II for no other reason.

LETTER LAST FALL.
First Proposal of Lord Lansdowns
Caused Wide Discussion.


Lord Lansdowne caused turmoil
among the statesmen OF the warning
natiors last November when he sent a
letter to London newspaper advocating
an early peace by negotiation. The LET
ter provoked almost universal con-
demnation in England and echoes of the
disturbance 1t produced have been heard
from time TO time in all OF subsequent
discussions OF possible peace terme.
For Lord Larsdowne Il was con
tended at the time that his letter was
intended merely to produce a discussion
out OF which might be evolved a basis
upon which the helllge~ent atoms would
agree to enter upon peace discussions
Within short time Of the letters pub.
licatior. President Wilson addressed
Congress and stated forcibly the terms
upon which the United States would
consent 10 enter upon peace negotla-
tons
The Lansdowne letter urged the ne
cessitv for ending the war as early as
possible, consistent with achieving its
proper aims, unless civilization was to
suffer all irreparable disaster. 1t stated
that discussion of terms of peace would
give Immense stimulus 20 the peace
party In Germany. 1t made much OF
the proposal for the establishment of n
league OF nations and emphasized the
necessity of making known to Germany
that the Allies neither sought to ami
hilate Germany nor 10 impose upon that
country a form of government other
than their own choice"
Lord I.ansdowne is one Of Great Brit
aims elder statesmen. He is a lyrical
representative OF the old Tory party. He
was a member of the AsQuith Cabinet
until Its fall and then was the opposi-
ton candidate for Premier. He had
been Governor General Of Canada. Vice
roy OF India, Secretary of Foreign
Affairs and Secretary of War.
