Strike Is Threatened.

Strike Is Threatened.
At meeting in the Clyde district
on Sunday the engineers and ship
builders decided to strike II the gov
|ernment man-power bill was not with
drawn before the end Of January and
10 peace conference called.
The rebuke given these men by Sir
Auckland Geddes is Endorsed generally
by the press and members of parlia-
ment, but in some quarters the min
lister is condemned for lack of sagacity,
as the temper OF the men is strained
and persuasion is NOSE likely to be
effective than menace.
The press condemns the malcontents
warmly, the Daily News describing the
threat to strike as a betrayal OF tree
dom and a stabbing OF sons and broth
ers in the back. A liberal member OF
parliament is quoted as saying:
'The men want an excuse to END the
war and this excuse is as good as any
other. They want to cause genera!
strike, so as to prevent the output OF
munitions and make war Impossible.
They are also talking Of delivering
provide Industrial districts with plenty
Of food or have a general strike.
In the lobbies of parliament the
opinion is expressed that II strike
occurs 1t is not likely to last long.
owing to the strikers lack OF funds.
Labor members Of parliament generally
will not talk of the situation. as their
conferences with Sir Auckland Geddes
are not yet finished.

BRITAIN TOLD OF
MILITARY NEEDS
Sir Auckland Geddes Describes
Measures Taken by
Government.
CITES ALLIES SITUATION

LONDON, January Is. Sir Auck-
land Geddes, minister. OF national
service, set forth before the house OF
commons yesterday afternoon the
status and needs Of the British hghe-
ing and munitioning forces ana the
measures the government fs taxing
after agreement with most of the Ia
bor leaders for recruitment from the
classes of skilled workers who were
promised exemption when conscr1p-
tion was adopted.
The empire has enrolled 7'ooo'oo'
fghting and labor battalion FORCES
during the war, according to the state
ment of the minister, and now has
more than 100000 enrolled. but neeos
more men to hold its own against the
enemy until the American strength Is
available.
Face "Blast of Hatred"
He praised the spirit in which the
labor leaders have met the govern
ment, but regretted that the Amai-
gamated Society of Engineers mad re-
manned outside the conference, aoolng.
however, that the invitation was stlli
open to the members OF this society:
He paid warm tribute to the Work OF

the young men among the million ex,
empted workers apparently CONSIDERED
themselves a privileged class ano
threatened to hold up by strikes the
building of airplanes and snips.
IF they do" he exclaimed, they
will meet such a blast OF hatreo 1t W1iA
surprise them"
Going into the details of the situa-
ton, the minister said in part:
The plain facts do not support the
statement that the armies are melting
for lack of recruits and that recruiting
has broken down.
The government has examined in de-
tail the position of the allies on the
eastern front, and the results are not
unsatisfactory. Excluding Russia and
Rumania, the allies have a substantial
superiority in fghting and ration
strength over the central powers.
From a statistical standpoint the
strength of the enemy gives no cause
for anxiety.
not less than 100000 men will be
made available on the western front.
Notwithstanding Russia's detection, the
resources of the allies and America are
sufficient to assure victory, and moth
ing but a psychological catastrophe
can save the central powers.
Every day the hitting force of
Britain becomes Of greater Importance

GERMAN SITUATION
GROWING STRAINED
Socialists Break Up Annexa-
ZIONIST Meeting-Chancel-
Ior Won HertIing May Quit.
| DICTATORSHIP is POSSIBLE
Rv the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
AMSTERDAM, January 15.-Evidences
of the strained situation as regards
war aims continue to appear in the
German newspapers. The Leipzig Volks-
zeitung says a meeting Of the annexa-
zionist fatheriand party at Jena was
broken up by the independent socialists.
who, after passing a vote for "a gen
eral peace by understanding" threw
out the members of the fatherland
party.
oiutions are being rushed to the en-
peror by the militarists. other currents
are active. This is instanced by a
meeting at Frankfort Sunday. of free
resolution to the effect that a lasting
peace which would really safeguard
Germany's vital economic interests
would be possible only on the basis of
the peace resolution adopted by the
reichstag. The committee expressed
the hope that from the negotiations with
Russia might result a peace which, by
honest adherence to the principle of
self-determination of peoples. might
exclude the danger of new conflicts.
Attacks Fatherland Policies.
At this meeting DR.. Bernhard Dern-
burg, former secretary of state, for the
colonies, said that if the fatherland
party won the war would be lost. He
rejected annexations and cash indem-
mites and declared Germany was pow
erless to enforce long-term payments
by installments from America and Eng
land. Annexations in the east, he as
serted, would be a source of constant
danger, as they would irritate Russia.
DR.. Dernburg also urged disarmament.
The Munich Post attacks the father
land party and supports the attitude
taken by President Wilson in respect
Of recognition of the demands for
autonomy on the part of the Slav pop
ulation of the central empires. THE
Russian revolution has stirred the ma
tionalistic feeling among the Slavs of
