Taking the position that the dec's-

governor, who approves the appoint
ments. The commissions were sent
out today. There are sixty-five Of
these appointments in all to be made
and the remainder will be named dur
ing the week.

has claimed that inspectors Of refined

his Jurisdiction does not agree tha,
the court decision affected his officr
and will contest the authority of the
commission to appoint other inspec-
tors. Another case in the supreme
court to test the validity Of the 1917
statute is inevitable.

AMSTERDAM. February 2.-While
the police and military are preparing
for a general strike in Amsterdam on
Monday. there are Indications that the
movement probably will not assume
serious proportions.
The members Of the moderate unions
have issued proclamation urging
their fellow members not to follow the
dictates of the leaders of the syn
dicalists. who are said to desire to
spread a strike through the country.
The strike movement is said to be
backed by socialists with bolshevik
tendencies. and is declared to be an
outward sign of the discomfort Of the
working classes arising out of priva-
tions due to the war
