 No Ships For Java.

Great quantities of raw cane sugar are locked up in far-away Java, un- available because ships cannot be spared to transport it. Hence the Eu- ropean allies are asking Cuba and the United States as a practical patriotic duty to supply them with sugar. The United States is making every effort to comply with this request for the very interesting reason that if we save the allies from the necessity of trans porting 100000 tons of sugar from Java, it will release shipping sufficient to carry about 100000 American sol- diers to France"

No one ever dreamed that sugar, which the world produces in billions of pounds yearly, could become so scarce that folks would be asked by the government and the sugar re- liners to use it sparingly. But the war. which has brought about many extraordinary conditions, also upset the worlds sugar bowl.
 Today, everybody is interested in sugar. The housewife is eager to know when sugar will be more plenti- full. And from different point of view, the business man is following the sugar situation, interested in the

Two tremendous features are booked to appear at this theatre the first half of this week. The headline attraction is Geraldine Farrar in her latest six part Aircraft production, The Devil Stone. In this picture the celebrated star will have as vehicle a story of unusual interest, considerably differ ent from any of the former film plays in which she has thus far appeared. The underlying theme of the narra- tive, namely, the sinister effect of the world-old stumbling block of man, su- perstition, furnishes the basis for a story of interesting study. Fully Marshall, who played here in the all star production, Fine Feathers, skill fully interprets the part of Silas Mar tin, the thoroughly unlovable miser of the story. Hobart Bosworth appears as Robert Judson, the criminologist. The other feature is Douglas Fairbanks ill a reissue of his former big success, The Habit of Happiness, five-part comedy with all the Fairbanks pep and ginger. The Animated Weekly with all the news completes the show. Matinee at 2.15; evening, GAS and S.45. No advance in prices.

BRITISH EMPLOYERS PLAN
 LABOR COUNCILS
Federation of British Industries To Work With Trade Unions in
 Solving all Difficultie S.

Combination of employers of labor "a movement that has received great impetus as a result of the war-has been particularly marked in Great Britain, where several federations have developed The Monthly Labor Review, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Department of La- Ibor, tells of the organization and aims of the Federation of British Indus- tries, one of the most important of these combinations.
 Among it's principal objects is the promotion and encouragement of un- restricted communication and discus sion between masters and workmen with a view to the establishment of amicable arrangements and relations, and to the avoidance of strikes and other forms of industrial warfare. It indOrses the view of the reconstruc- tiOn committee as to the vital import ance of securing cooperation between employers and workmen after the war and expects associations to play an important part in the settlement of difficult suestions.
 It suggests the organization in each shop of work committees, an elected body of workpeople set up by the joint consent of employers and employees, whose duties shall be to report to or receive fro mthe man. agement any complaints regarding breaches of agreement between work men and employers.
 Trade councils, composed of repre- sentatives of employers associations and of trade-unions in particular trade or section of an industry, are suggested at the first court of appeal in the case of disputes. Councils of in- dustry, composed of employers and employed in certain groups of trades as, for example, the textile in- dustry-are favored as further court of appeal, and would be assigned cer- tain original jurisdiction over matters affecting an entire industry. The fed eration also supports plan for na- tional industrial council, composed of work people and employers from all industries, to act as a final court of appeals. In some respects it's func- tions would conform to those of the War Labor Board of the United States.

Paris, Nov. 15 (By The Associated Press. .)-Jugo-Slav crews remaining aboard the Austrian Fleet, in the Adriatic, are reported to have made a proposition to turn over the war ships to the United States, but as this was considered ineXpedient, it was arranged later that the vessels should be turned over to the Allied and American forces is accordance with the armistice terms.
 All the Austrians on board the war ships departed on the eve of the sign ing of the armistice, leaving only Jugo Slavs on the ships. The Jugo-Slav, much impressed by Americas activity in behalf of their cause submitted a proposition that the United States hold the vessels until their final dis position was determined. The hope when a decision is reached that the ships will be returned to them and thus form the nucleus of Jugo-Slav Navy.
