with her eyes open, trying to discount any

looked. Hence for two years and three

two years she has talked peace-and found

not so discerning and farseeing as this,
but there was general Discrimination
to condemn the strikers at Coventry and
Birmingham. Although the strike was
called off, it is of interest that observers
in England and America said that there
were other influences at work aside
from those having to do directly with
the apparent principles involved. Frank
Dllnot, writing in "The New York
Times" said:
During the war great many men have
learned the work of munition making, and
possibly they have joined unions, and they
are pretty certain to include a sprinkling
OF those Socialists who, while not pro-Ger-
man, were decidedly pacihsts"
Mr.. Dilnot goes on to say, however,

ME sudden flare of trouble among

. q is almost coincident with the be-
ginning of new industrial
policy in the United States. Commenta-
tors find an interesting parallel between
the British munitions strike at Coventry,
which was brought to a close without
costly interruption, and the programme
just initiated by the United States En-
ployment Service.
The Coventry strike followed an en-
barge laid down by the British govern
ment to prevent factories, by paying
higher wages, from getting dispropor-
tomato share of the nations skilled la
Dor supply. One of the employing fac
tories apparently misunderstood the en-
barge order and posted notice declar-
ing that sem-skilled workers only were
to be employed thereafter. The result
was widespread belief on the part of
workmen that they were being driven
INTO the army.
The Boston Transcript" points out
some of the underlying phases OF the
situation as it developed and it's rela-
tlonship to the labor background in
America:
obviously the whole success of British
var industry depends on distrbu-

SPECIAL TO The ToMAHAwK.
Great things have been occurring
in Washington during the last week
relative to the affairs of the Chip
pewa Indrns: The obsolete and
antiquated system of the Indian
Bureau heretofore stead fastly ad.
hered to in its managementyo of the
affairs of the Chippewa Indians has
suddenly gone into the discard and
the Chippewa Indians may expect
within a very short time. radical
changes that will lift from them
them forever the oppressive hand
of the Indian Bureau employees
that has heretofore been so ruth
lessly laid upon them.
The men primarily responsible
for the changes now being made
and which are to occur are Senator
Kellogg and Representatives Knut-
son. Steenerson, Miller and Els
worth of Minnesota. The men who
are Indirectly responsible are the
members Of the Legislative Com
mittee of the Chippewa General
Council. =. ~-...... ..
Under the leadership of John G.
Morrison, Jr., President OF the
Chippewa General Council, the
Legislative Committee last Decein-
ber commenced systematic inves-
tigation of all the affairs of the
Chippewa Tribe The result of that
investigation was embodied in a
letter dated January 2, 1918, ad-
dressed to Cato Sells, Commission
er of Indian Affairs, and which was
printed in the Congressional Rec
ord of January 21, 1918. The dele
CATION in that letter set out in plain
language the exact situati on pre-
vai!ing among the Chippewa In
dians; the violations by the Indian
Bureau of their rights recured t.
them under their former treaties
and the agreement Of 1889, the
great losses the tribe had sustained
as the result of the maladministra
tion of their property by the In
dian Bureau officials, the inexcus
able waste Of their trust funds 5y

to their members of their lawful
property rights by the Indian Bu
reau employees in Minnesota. Un

Committee, told them that he had

pewa people. (which were purely
visionary and then told them to
hurry up and get through with
their work here and run on back
home like good boys, concluding
the letter in these words:
Il earnestly wish and will ex-
pecs you to complete your work in
this city at the earliest possible
date and that you soon advise me
as to when you will be ready to
return home.
In this manner the Indian Bureau
j has been dealing with the Indians
who have come to Washington
from time immemorial, and,
strange to say. the representatives
of the Indians have heretofore
meekly submitted and obeyed. The
