Anxiety at Washington.

Washington, Feb. 16.-The effect of
 the shipping boards second appeal to
 striking carpenters in eastern ship
 yards to return to work pending settlement of their grievances by the wage adjustment board was anxiously
 awaited here today. The boards re-
 newed request was made by Chair man Hurley last night in a telegram
 to William l.. Hutcheson, president of
 the United Brotherhood of Carpen-
 ters and Joiners, virtually demanding
 that he send the striking shipbuild-
 ing employees back to their jobs.
 Early in the day Hutcheson had re-
 fused a previous appeal with a com m munication declaring it would be inn possible to act until he had some definite proposition from the shipping board as to working conditions. What steps the government, if the situation does not improve, will take has not been decided
 Reports yesterday that local ex- emption boards were prepared to call into military service striking work CTS of draft age prompted the ship ring board to urge that no such ac- ton be taken. The shipping board desires that all draft questions in volving shipyard workers be decided in Washington

WILSON'S SPEECH GARBLED
Excerpt of Address As Published by German News Agency, shown to Be Misleading.

The Hague. Feb. 14, (via London, Feb. 15.)--Two reports of President Wilson's address to congress were published in Germany, one by the semi-otficial Zurian Wolff, which the Berlin morning papers published, and another by a private agency, which was published in the o'clock edi- ton of the National Zeitung Tuesday night. The Vossischc Zeitung has discovered that seemingly a most important paragraph was missing in the Wolff report,' and supplements it from the private agency report
 This may be a simple error in transmission, although the passage was not omitted In the Reuter- teie- gran published in Holland and trans mitted by the Wolfr Agency here

adjust the difficulty, the executive committee of the Marine woodwork CTS council is reported to nave voted l at a, secret meeting to issue the strike | call Officials early today would not venture an opinion as to how general 1 ly President HutcheSon'S S appeal would 1 be needed but they expressed the be- l lief that a large number would re- ! snond to the call to strike
 President Hutcheson in a state- ment last night resented the impress 1 son' that the carpenters were not loyal to the administration in the con- duct of the war; The carpenters in- sist that their demands have been in the hands of the shipping board for months, but have been aside repeated ly without action. They assert that they ask only for an investigation of wage conditions with a view to action similar to that made on the Pacific coast.
 Edgewater Strike Settled.
 Mr. Guerin announced he had re- ceived today a telephone message from a shipbuilding corporation at EdgeWater, N. J.s saying it had set- tied with it's men on a basis of $6.60 a day, pending an understanding be- tween the government and shipyard workers generally.
 William l.. Hutchinson, president of the brotherhood, said he had not yet received the second telegram sent to him yesterday by Chairman Hur- ley of the shipping board, requesting him to direct the men to return to work. He declared he would not comment on it's text until this mes- sage reached him.
 Brotherhood leaders today asserted there were about 5000 carpenters idle here, owing to scarcity of mate- rial in addition to the strikers, and that throughout the country there were 51,000 carpenters idle who had been employed on cantonmentS and who would be turned in as ship- building workers with only a. little training. These estimates were given out, it was stated, to show that there is plenty of available labor for carry ing out the governments shipbuild. ing program if higher wages wera paid.
 The government has rejected q proposition by the carpenters broth- erhood that the ship workers be al- lowed to place a representative on the labor adjustment board of the Emergency Fleet Corporation to set tie the present wage controversy, it was announced by MT. Guerin. The ship workers wanted to appoint such a representative with the right to veto and power equal to those held by government representatives.
 Contrary to the claims of the brotherhood leaders, information reaching shipping board officials here at noon indicated that fewer than HOO shipyard workers were on strike today in the New York dis triCt.
