LONDON, April 9.-Jerusalem's first

Passover conceded with our festival
and was celebrated with new meaning
OF Joy for the Jews in the occupied
territory.
Although our occupation only dates
four months back, the very atmosphere
of this region seemed to have under
gone Il change. Distress has vanished d

thing else to immediate relief has been
the employment Of thousands of ma

Effort Made to End
Harbor Labor Dispute
Meeting at Capital To-day
Seeks to End Long Stand
ing Trouble Here

WASHINGTON, April 8. The arrival
here to-day of three representatives
Of the various organizations Of marine
workers on the New York waterfront
marks the beginning Of the tina! effort
TO settle one of the most battling labor
difficulties that has arisen since the
beginning of the war. The delegates
are I. V. O'Connor. president Of the
international Longshoremen's Associa-
ton; Paul A. Nacarolli, vice -presid dent
of that association, and Captain Will
lam A Maher, OF the American AssO-
citation Of Masters, Mates and Pilots.
Other marine workers's executives
Will come here tomorrow. when all Of
them and President Gompers. Of the
American Federation OF Labor, will
meet with the National Labor Adjust
ment Commission of the Shipping
Board in the federation Offices, to at
tempt to formulate some way of ter
minating the long standing disputes.
The purpose is To appeal from the
arbitration decision that now stands
and also to find some way of getting
The employers to observe arbitration
decisions. According to the labor lead
crs, though the special arbitration was
not necessary to them, it has been
futile because all Of the interested en-
picycrs would not observe it.
In view of the Presidents proclama-
tion to-day formally establishing the
National War Labor Board as a court
Of last resort in controversies between
employers and employees, it is not un-
likely that the New York waterfront
