thanks of all members OF the Ameri-
can eSpeditionary forces for insurance

lilies OF It's hghting men. The mes
sage reads as follows
All ranks of the American expedi-
tionary forces appreciate deeply the
generous measure tho government has
taken to provide insurance for their
families. In proof Of which more than
90 per cent OF the men have taken out
insurance. To wisely provision for
their loved ones, heartcns our men and
strengthens the bonds that unite the

added more than Sl.o00.o 600, 900 Of in

William Is anxious
to Spare Monastery
Fears His Guns WiNKiU Monk
Who KnoWs Where Prince
Is Buried.
tBy Associated Pree..l

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. June 30.-There is an inter-
estinE development in connection with
the hostile Smelling Of the territory
around Mont-des-Cats, where the ia
nous Trappist monastery is located.
For weeks tho Germans have been
bombing this Flemish elevation heavily.
and the monks home has been SADLY
damaged.
Recently the German Emperor wrote
letter 10 the German commander in
inns area, asking that Mont dos Cats
be spared because the aged prior of the
monastery was the only living person
who knew where the Emperor's rela-
tive. FRINGE Max. Of Hessc, had been
buried after his death in the monastery
in October, 1914. The prince was at
tachcd to the cavalry which occupied
Mont-des-Cats in October. after the out
break OF the war.
During an engagement with British
cavalry. Prince Max was mortally
wounded and taken to the monastery.
While he was being nursed by the
monks. his comrades were driven from
the hill, and the British occupied it,
The prince died. and was buried in n
certain place, the location of which was
not disclosed TO the world.
The German Emperor wrote letter
to the Pope, in which he asked for
information as to where the prince was
buried. and requested the return of the
body. The Pontiff forwarded the let
ter to the monastery. and it was then
that the Emperor received the famous
reply-not until he had evacuated Bel
GUM and made just restitution would
he learn the whereabouts of the princes
grave.
The Emperor now appears to he wor-
rled that his guns may kill the only
man able TO give him the desired in
formation. but his request to spare the
place. If he made such a request, seems
to have met with small response thus
far. for big shells continue to break
ON the monastery.

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
APPROVED BY BOARD
Decides Against Individual Labor
Contract In Case Involving EN-
plOyees of General Electric.

WASHINGTON. June 3o-The Ma
tional War Labor Board has set its
face against the individual labor con-
tract. and, in a decision announced yes
terday, has affirmed the right OF labor
TO collective bargaining.
Action came In the case Of the Cen
eral Electric Company's trouble at its
Pitt sicld, Mass, plant. 1t is the first
decision of it's kind by the board, and
establishes a precedent that will rule
in all such conflicts between labor and
employer during the war
The General Electric Company al
ways has refused TO recognize commit
tees OF it's employees or representatives
OF the union at this plant. Individual
contracts have been submitted to pros
pective employees and have been sign
ed before the men have been placed on
the pay roll. The same system pre-
walls In many of the large industrial
plants OF the country.
In It's order, the board directed tina 4
the individual contracts now in effect
be eliminated and that the company
make none such in the future. The
staff OF the board will devise a system
OF elections by which the workers may
choose committees to represent them
in dealing with the company.
The decision is regarded as one OF
the greatest victories for labor In a
series Of victories awarded it since
the government began to mobilize sn-
dustry to win the war
