these strikes will not induce the
authorities to materially change their
policy either at home or towards other
lands.
In tho first place the leading trade
union bodies or the Socialist party
has not yet been forced to approve
or support such strikes. nave in
strikes that took place during my visit
10 Germany, and / sadly confess that
in cvcrT instance the attitude of the
official trnde-union bodies and the
Socialist party towards the movement
has been passive. They did not raise
a finger to encourage the workers to
continue In their efforts to cripple Ger
tain war industries. Most Of these
strikes were simply individual shop
strikes. excited by handful OF Marx
fans They did repeated and great
damage TO the government works. and
still greater damage 20 war material,
but they were short-l!vnd and in near
l. all cases the authorities came out
OF the conflict stronger.
Yet. there is an ugly spirit amongst
the workers. which is rapidly spread
Ing. and II encrgctically supported,
would soon grow into serious proper
tons.
But this must be sadly pointed out,
that those who are feeling ugly to-
wards the government are the un-
skilled workers. whose chief grievance
against the government is not actuatcd
by Its domestic or foreign policies.
but is mostly based on the fact that
they are not being treated with the
same consideration that is melted out
TO the skilled workers
STRIKES CAUSED ny
LOWERING FOOD RATION
have inquired into the causes OF
Yearly all the strikes that took place
near Berlin. and in each case came
10 the conclusion that they were p-i-
marily directed against the factory
policy of each factory administrators.
strikes took place. true. even in the
ranks ot the skilled workers, but they
took place when the authorities
lowered their food ration.
Tho truth was that the ration was
lowered universally, but 1t was the
skilled labor that complained The
authorities could not with grace yield
10 the strikers on the food ration
lSsue, but they raised their wages.
The meaning OF these settlements WIS
that the middle classes were sacrificed
Tor the good OF the Industrial war
workers.
must explain moro plainly what
this means.
The middle classes are to-day nov
criy-stricken throughout Germany
ihey have no currency to pay for foot

Tor the middle classes to realize on

HEARST MAKES DENIAL
(By Review Leased Wire)


 NEW YORK, Dec. 7-The New York American, owned by w. R. Hearst, in a statement tonight asserted it never knew or suspected, or had any reason to suspect, that Mir. Wm. Bayard Hale had any relations whatsoever with the German government or with the Ger man ambassador when he was sent to Berlin as a special correspondent" :"
 He was selected, the statement says, because he had been distinguish ed by President Wilson as his special confidential agent in Mexico and be- cause his previous experience in Ger many, which included an interview with the former emperor. published in 1908, seemed to fit him for the task
 The agreement made by Dr. Hale with the American, the statement con tinues. was flor his exclusive serv- ices" and he was supposed to have no other work, obligation or interest whatsoever except his duties as a news correspondent"
 For 59 weeks of his employment. it is asserted, Dr. Hale was paid S14, 300 in salary and S2l, ,7SS for expenses.
 The statement quotes the letter of credentials which it says the Amer ican gave Dr. Hale The letter stated that his errand was solely that "of a neutral correspondent"
