GERMAN INDUSTRIES
 AT STRIKERS MERCY

BERLIN. Friday, Dec. 13.-(By the Associated Press.) 1.-The Zeitung did not publish today because of a strike arising from wage demands in the composing rooms.
 Skilled workers receive good wages. The fact that the members of the sol u1ers' and sailors councils are draw ing pay on the same scale has stimu- lated employees in many branches to accept that figure as the standard of pay.
 The Wertheim department store shut down today SIS a result of the firm $ refusal to aCcede to the demands of the women employees for an extra war allowance ranging from 100 to 800 marks each. The amount involved would total 1.500000 marks. The firm offered a compromise of 1. 700. 900 marks which was refused. The women walked out and organized q street parade through the downtown streets. The Wertheim managemnt announcd today that the salary increase granted in the last two years exceeded 3,O00,000 marks
 That the labor situation in many of the big industrial plants in Berlin is rapidly becoming acute is evidenced by the pcremptory demands made by the workmen and clerical forces in the Slemans and Halske electrical works and the allied Siemans- -Schuckert plant at Spandau. The wage schedules with which the management is being confronted call for increases amount ing to 124,000,000 marks annually. The firm. last year declared a dividend of 1S,500,000 marks. At one stage of the negotiations, part of the employees at tempted to prevent the directors and executive officers of the firm from en- tering their offices.
 The employees of the General Electric company have presented a new wage schedule which provides for an annual Increase of 120,0O0,0O0 marks. Leading manufacturers of Berlin declare that the arbitrary demands of the workers will eventually result in forcing the big plants 10 locate in the provinces, as otherwise they will be wholly elimi- mated from the worlds competitive markets. The government, through Emil Earth. a member of the cabinet. is endeavoring to persuade the workers of the unreasonableness of their de- mands, and is further pointing out the danger of German industry being crip- uled

CITY EDITOR CHAPIN
 FOUND TO BE SANE

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-Charles F. Chapin, former city editor of the New York Evening World, who confessed to having shot and killed his wife at the Hotel Cumberland, September 16, has been found legally sane, according to the report of a 1unacy commission, filed today.
 Citing the relations between Chapin and his wife as ''singularly devoted" according to uncontradicted testimony, the commissioners termed the editors act an effect of defective moral req soning.'
 Voluminous evidence, they stated. showed that Chapin had been in a condition of worriment (based on fi- nancial troubles) for more than five years, but they were forced to the conclusion that he was not insane when he committed the crime and is not now.
 The commissioners were George w. Wickersham, former United States at

evades the issue presented and is
