MOLDERs
Enforce Eight-HOur Decision
of Jnstice Clark. Wheeling
Employers BaIk On War
Board Umpires' Ruling But
Finally Accept.

Wheeling, w. Because the
Wheeling Mold and Foundry company
attempted to delay complying with an
eight-hour award, iron molders re-
fused to work longer than eight hours
and the company closed the plant
After a few days the management
changed their minds and at a confer
ence with government officials, repre-
sentatives of the Iron Molders' union
and the company the latter accepted
the award The mems demand for
$3.50 a day and the company's offer
of $6.25 was compromised by a rep
.resentative of the national war labor
board, who set the figure at $636.
This eight-hour decision was made
by Hon. Walter Clark, chief justice of
the North Carolina supreme court, act
ign as umpire for the war labor board.
The ruling has attracted wide atten-
ton because 1t declares that a basic
aight-hour day does not mean eight
hours work, but it is a wage agree
ment providing for extra time over
eight hours. Another feature of the
Clark decision provides that where the
men are asked to work more than
eight hours because an emergency ex-
lists, this claim shall be passed upon
by permanent committee, consisting
of two representatives of the men and
two Of the company As the latter
sets up the claim, it must prove it,
and three votes shall be necessary to
reach decision
The national war labor board has
included this idea in several Of its
decisions with the important excep-
tion that an appeal can be made from
such committees decision. In the
Clark decision no provision is made
for appeal.

Londoners Fear They Will
Not See President on Short
Route to Buckingham Palace

LONDON. December 2a-President
Wilson's arrival in London on pub
lie holiday makes it certain that there
will be a great gathering of Lon
doners to welcome him. The only
handicap to wouldbe observers is
the fact that the distance from the
station to the palace is so short that
it is likely there will be many per-
sons who will be unable to get places
from which they can witness the
passage OF the royal and presidential
parties.
A better opportunity to see the
President will be offered the public
when the American executive goes TO
the Guildhall Saturday to receive an
address from the lord mayor of Lon
don. President Wilson then will
traverse the route the king usually
follows when he visits the city for
public functions-through the Strand
and Fleet street and past st. PauFs
