TELEGRAPHERS HALT
BUT DEMAND STRIKE
Postmaster-General Burleson
Denounced and .Walkout
Threatened Here.

Charging that the restrictions enforced
BY Postmaster-G General Burleson as war
head of telephones and telegraphs are
even more stringent than those prac-
tised by Newcomb Carlton. president OF
the Western Union Telegraph Company.
the executive committee Of the Western
Union local system division has sent the
following telegram 10 S. j. Konenkamp.
president of the Commercial Telegraph
ers Union OF America In Washngton:
"Postponement Of the strike has
caused intense dissatisfaction among
union telegraphers in New York city.
Indignation at the inaction of the wire
control committee grows hotter hourly.
The letters of Burleson are even tighter
than those used by Carlton. Help us to
keep our ankles free. Unless you come
walkout will occur, which undoubtedly
will result In nationwide strike. as our
sympathizers in other cities are legion.
Answer quick
The message. which was signed by w.
u. Fahnestock, c. W. Christensen, T.
Schwadron and III. II. Rosen, was sent
after a meeting OF the committee here
yesterday. At the meeting a telegram
from President Konencamp was read. 1t
follows.
at is not at all probable that Govern
ment control will end In a hurry, II at
all 1t is less likely that agencies such
as the National War Labor Board will
be disbanded before the plans OF recon-
struction have been worked out. The
rights guaranteed the workers by Presi-
dent Wilson in his proclamation OF
April s. 1918, will not be taken away.
Therefore. by holding fast, by organiz-
ing more intensiveiy. by presenting a
solid front at all times you can main
tain two defences-the Presidents proc
lsmation and your own solidarity. This
brings us up to our own situation as
stated on November 2.
The committee was willing to allow
the wire board a reasonable time In
which TO show what Il would do. The
developments give us no encouragement
and our appeal to the National War
Labor Board was restored Our COM
plant came before the War Labor Board
to-day. the Wire Board was not repre-
scented and for this reason our case has
been put over until Tuesday, November
IL. Despite this new delay we have not
lost confidence in securing ultimate Jus
tice, and 1t is still our intention to press
matters vigorously until our purpose Is
accomplished"

2OO. 900 JEWS ARE IN
AMERICAN FORCES
Report Presented by the
National Committee.

Reports submitted yesterday at the
twelfth annual Meeting OF the American
Jewish Committee In the Astor Hotel
showed that between $50, 900 and zoe, 900
Jews are In the armed forces OF the
United States and that 2.502 Jews had
been listed among the casualties to No
vember /. This. the report estimated,
represents 80 per cent. OF the total
American losses.
The Jewish soldiers are distributed
through all branches of the forces.
About 10000 are In the army. 5000 in
the navy and 1.400 In the Marine Corps (;
4.190 hold commissions. OF those listed
as casualties 451 we're killed In action,
1I2 died from wounds. 90 from disea So
and 10 from accident and other causes.
making the total deaths SS2. or Al per
cent. OF the total fatalities In the Expe-
dictionary Forces.
The report also called attention TO
conditions In Russia and the economic
persecution of all who hold property.
although n large number OF the Jews
of Russia are the victims of the Boil
sheviki," the report said, "a great pro-
portion being engaged In trade and the
professions and thus coming under the
ban, yet. because several OF the leaders
Of thh group are Jews, the impression
has been created in many quarters that
the Jews OF Russia are overwhelmingly
identified with the Bolsheviki and their
excuses.
This report is entirely unfdunded and
the Jews OF Russia to an overwhelming
extent are ranged on the side OF those
who are struggling for the restoration
OF decency and order and periodically
striving to deliver Russia

A statement issued last night by the

grievances OF the walters. II reads In
part:
The hotel men conduct parasitic In
dustry. They refuse to pay the walters
living wage, less than $40 a week. and
compel the patrons to pay the remainder
Of the workers wage through the humil-
isting tips. Wages are now SO low. In
the face OF the Increased cost of living,
that no strike breakers can be kept at
work under present conditions"
Heads Of the various esta bill shments
affected by the strike assert the walters
are receiving good wages In addition to
tips that average between $40 and $50

NO HALT IN WAR WORK.
Appeal Made to Volunteer Aids Ia
Await wilson's Word.

Tho United States Employment Ser
vice, 48s Fifth avenue, issued an appeal
last night to workingmen not to discon-
tinue their volunteer work In war activi-
ties until the President himself says the
need no longer exists.
1.-THE State Advisory Board of the
United States Employment Service, "
says the appeal, asks employers and
workingmen TO use the Service and help
each other In maintaining war indus
tries at the proper pitch OF productive
ness until the President commands
Halt"
It Is stated that these Industries are
dangerously short handed and that they
have been bidding against one another
for the labor they need. The apparent
approach OF peace, says the call. may
tempt men to give up their war posi-
tons and so reduce the now inadequate
number OF workers in war plants. The
Service adds that any attempt to per-
suade men that their services are no
longer required for war work Is as I'M
patriotic as an argument against invest
