LONDON, Aug. 20.--London walked to-

rapidly into the tube system, with the
result that London's streets were jammed

No buses were seen anywhere, and

with dense crowds and people literally
fought their way Into the cars. Police
men had their hands full.
There was some hope that the strike,
which was caused by the women de-
manding a war bonus Of sl.25 a week
the same as paid TO men, might be
settled tomorrow. but the indications
now are that settlement Is not likely
to be reached before Thursday.
At a conference of national transport

to enforce the payment of the bonus to
women; second, work to be resumed
pending reconsideration by a Govern

George Broadhurst opened the season

Do It." play with music. The piece
was neither farce nor musical comedy,
and. though at thimes II seemed that 1t
should have been one thing or the other.
II moved rather smoothly and furnished
a pleasing and enjoyable entertainment.
"He Didn't Want to Do II" Is based
upon a farce written by Mr.. Broadhurst
and Walter Hackett, produced In Lon
don. but not In this country. 1t was
expected that 1t should have a plot. and
a rather good one. too, In accordance
with the early efforts Of Mr.. Broad
bursts farce days. But It was not the
unravelling of this plot that caused the
piece to wake up in the second act and
compensate after the rather Indifferent
first.
The fact Is that In this act was some

There were numerous little bitches in

But who cares for a plot on an Au

features that He Didn't Want to Do II"
will continue for some time to draw
crowds to Mr.. Broadhurst's theatre.
