GOVERNMENT TO
ASSUME CONTROL
OF MEAT PACKERS

Washington, Jan. 24-Hearings be-
fore the Presidents Mediation Com
mission, endeavoring to settle differ
ences between meat packers and en-
ployes, were continued yesterday. 1t
was indicated the workers would not
drop their proposal to have the gov
eminent take over plants for the
war.
John Fitzpatrick, president of the
Chicago Federation of Labor, heading
the union delegation, who fade the
proposal to President Wilson, is to
meet Secretary Wilson and the COM
mission again today.
Although the President has said he
believed every method of mediation
should be tried before government
control is considered, Frank P. Walsh,
counsel for the men, said the idea
would not be- dropped.
Attorneys for the packers showed
strong opposition to the plan, insist
ing they were cooperating with the
government. James J. Condor init
mated the mems request was not con-
sidered seriously.
Each side charges bad faith in liv-
ing up to the arbitration agreement or
wages. working conditions and unior
affiliations made a month ago, when c
strike was impending.

WEDDING OUT OF
USELESS MEN IN
WAR DEPARTMENT

Washington. Jan. 24-The proce-
dure through which inefficient ma
tional guard or national army officers
are to be removed is set forth in reg
ulations published by the War De-
partment.
Divisional commanders and higher
officers are given authority to order
before special boards officers consid-
cred unfit for the commands they are
holding. The reports go to the War
Department, which will give the final
decision.
In each case the examining board
will be composed, so far as practical
BILE, of officers of the same arm as the
men ordered before it.
AS in practically every regulation
recently issued, yesterdays orders
contain a paragraph excluding the
expeditionary forces from their oper-
, alton. Gen. Pershing will hold his
power to discharge inefficient officers
| of all branches of the service below
the grade of brigadier-general, ex-
cept those holding permanent COM
missions.

Discomfort is
STILL GROWING
AMONG TEUTONS

London Jan. 24-The impressions
conveyed in today's news dispatches
from Switzerland and Holland regard
ing the internal situation in Germany
on the eve of Chancellor Won Hert-
ling's expected address before the
reichstag is one of discomfort among
the masses suppressed by the tri-
umphant hand of the military party.
Efforts of the German censorship
to prevent public knowledge of the
Austrian strikes and peace demands
succeeded for a time, but the news
leaked through gradually and Aus
trian events seem now to be widely
known by German workers. The
Austrian hope that the latter would
follow their lead has not, however,
materialized while German news
papers which ventured to hold out
hand to the Austrian proletariat have
been sternly repressed. Nevertheless,
according to the Posts Amsterdam
dispatches, the rebellious sentiments
of German workmen, especially indie
pendent Socialists, are becoming
stronger This is partly attributable
to the attitude of the German dele
gates at the Brest-Litovsk conference,
which caused widespread discomfort
as was manifested by the tumultuous
scenes at numerous meetings of the
Fatherland party.

WOODEN HORSE
TRICK TRIED BY
HUN HYPOCRITES

London, Jan. 24-The Dutch Cath
Ole journal Tyd prints an article re-
ceived through an indirect channel
from it's correspondent in Germany
in which he says that events in
Brest-Litovsk and President Wilson's
new peace formula, which in wide
circles is regarded as suitable basis
for the regulation of society of the
future, have prepared the ground for
the Bolshevik tendency"
"It is recognized in educated cir
cles,' says the writer, that the
wooden horse has been brought in at
Brest-Litovsk and there is anxiety
lest the German attitude in the nego-
tiations may lead to~a division among
the people The masses turn away
from the yelled anneXationist lust of
power formulated by Gen. Hoffman,
Continuing, the writer speaks of the
rebellious temper of the factory pop
ulation in the industrial centers and
adds: mo wonder fear is expressed
here and there that the people are
disguised with the postponed suf-
frage reforms, furious with the PAN
Germans, exhausted in body and for
tune, and deprived of the hope of the
restoration of national and individual
happiness will itself take the settle
ment of it's lot into their own hands
if any great military setback is suf-
fered
sit is in such an atmosphere if re-
ports quoted are accurate, that Chan
celIor Won HertIing meets the reich
stag to sneak to his own countrvmen
and the world. His newspaper sup
porters say the chancellor is in no
wise shaken by the recent political
cricis, but on the contrary he has the
emperor's full confidence"

wool will be put on the macn;nes FOR
them and their socks for the fighting
men will be provided just that much
quicker. Machine knitted garments,
it is true, are not quite so good as
those made by hand. 1t is said that
the hand knitted onAs will last three
times as long as those made by ma
chimes, but at the present moment,
with thousands of men in need of
socks, it is obviously not expedient to
try too much for quality. Quantity
production is the thing most neces-
sary. Moreover, the machine made
socks are, in standard sizes and are
generally quite satisfactory to the
men.
Workers are now being trained for
the Comforts Committee to operate
the knitting machines. For the pres
ent the work will only be done in
Washington, but any women not Iiv-
ing in Washington can send either
wool or money in payment for wool
to the Washington office of the Com
forts Committee, 1915 II Street, and
socks will be knitted on the machines
for their order.
