LABOR'S TRIPLE ALLIANCE
DEMANDING MUCH
And the British Government Is Taking
Very Seriously the Matters Pre-
sented BY These 100000

London, March 10 Correspondence Of
the Associated Press .--Labor's Triple
Alliance, which just now is demanding
much from the employers of England in
the way of shorter hours, higher wages
and living conditions such as never be-
fore were dreamed of by British work,
men, numbers approximately 100000
men with auxiliary forces of some hun,
dreds of thousands 'more. Its demands
have been taken very seriously by the
government.
The Triple Alliance, which is regarded
as one of the most powerful labor bodies
in the world, is made up of the Miners
Federation of Great Britain with 100000
members, the National Union of Railway
Men with 100000, and the Transport
Workers federation with 100000. Ont.
side it but dependent upon its action,
because strike of the Triple Alliance
means unemployment for them, are the
National Council of ColIiery Workers
Locomotive Engineers and Firemen, the
Railway Clerks association, and num-
Der Of others.
The machinery of the alliance is sim
Pile There is a small consultative com
mittee made up of the chairman and
secretary of each of the three organiza
tions, while the three executives meet at
least twice a year. Each body retains
complete freedom to take action on its
own behalf, joint action being confined
TO questions of national Importance and
questions of principle. Before a matter
can be considered by joint action it must
be fully approved by the executive of
the body which raises it. The approval
Of at least two of the organizations must
be obtained before any joint action can
be taken,
To the present the alliance has not
been called upon to test its power to the
point of drastic action, but it has been
far from idle In 1916 it laid before Mr.
Asquith, then premier, a reconstruction
program which included the demand for
full state maintenance, failing work, OF
all workers during the period of recon.
struction, demand which is now being
pressed upon the government. 1t was
active in pressing for better pay, pen
sions and allowances for the soldiers.
The alliance decided to postpone action
in the industrial field until after the
war, but each of the three bodies drew
up its plan for reconstruction, and these
national programs were mutually dis.
cussed and considered in common. 1t is
these which the government now faces
under threat of action that may plunge
the country into the greatest industrial
upheaval it has ever known.

Sail from Brest.

Boston. March ia decision by the
gar department against the use Of the
irmy supply base at South Boston as
billet for the 26th division during its
stay in this city for a parade and recep-
tion was announced to-day by Colonel
A. S. Williams, chief of staff of the
northeastern department, who had just
returned from Washington. Colonel
Williams said it probably would be nee
essary to bring most Of the men here
from Camp Devens the day Of the parade
by automobile and by train. And in
that connection" he added, II want to
warn the people Of New England who
may be planning to come to Boston for
the event, that they should come the
day before the parade and leave the day
after, as the use of railroads cars in
New England will be very much restrict
ed as far as the public is concerned"
Colonel Williams brought word back
from Washington that the first infantry
unit of the Yankee division would EN-
bark from Brest for Boston on March %
The information came from the war de,
partment, but it was said the date was
subject to change.

Strong Feeling Develops in
Paris in Favor of For
mer British Premier
AS FIRST PRESIDENT OF
LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Inclusion of League Draft in
Treaty Will Not Delay
Signing of Latter

London, March l9.--There is strong
feeling in political and diplomatic cir
Giles in Paris in favor of inviting Her,
bert II. Asquitb, former British premier,
to become the first president Of the
league of nations, according to the Daily
Mirror.
Paris, Tuesday, March IS (By the As
ISOLATED Press Inclusion of the league
of nations covenant in the preliminary
peace treaty will not delay the signing
of the treaty, which, it is hoped, will be
accomplished within two weeks, said
Lord Robert Cecil of Great Britain, talk
ing to British and American newspaper
correspondents tonight. He said that
three amendments to the covenant had
been submitted but added he was sure
there will be no difficulty in meeting all
legitimate objections"
Discussing the Monroe doctrine and
the effect of the league of nations upon
it,, Lord Robert said
"The Monroe doctrine is strengthened
by the league Of nations covenant be-
cause international action will be carried
out by the organ of the league. The
United States win be represented on
each body, and since these bodies are in
ternational. no action can be taken with
out the consent of all. No action can be
taken by the league which is opposed by
the United States government unless
such action should be against the United
States itself, and that would not affect
the Monroe doctrine.
IF, on the other hand, the view is that
there ought to be a complete and water
tight division between the American con
tinent and the rest Of the world, then,
no doubt, any action in which America
takes part would be an infringement Of
the Monroe doctrine. For my part, I
should regard any such doctrine as dis
astrous TO the future Of the world. The
war left the United States in a position
of enormous power. With that gigantic
power goes great responsibility to the
world at large and to herself The peace
of the worlds not only a European, but
an American interest. America 'canuot
afford to say that she has no interest N
what goes on in Europe If she did she
would he false to the world at large and

HUGE RENTALS CHARGED
By Landlords in London Following Re,
turn of Soldiers.

London, March l0.-Frequent charges
that landlords all over England, taking
advantage of the scarcity of houses, have
assumed the attitude Of buy the house
at my price or get out" have been car
ried to the House of Commons with the
result that the government has promised
relief During the Commons discussion
it was stated that hundreds of families
have eviction notices and cannot find a
place to live.
In many instances tenants have been
forced to pay three times the pre-war
rental and in addition recently have re-
ceived notices that they must purchase
the property if they wish to remain.
The demand for houses at fancy prices
is unprecedented. Landlords who invest
in renting property are anxious TO real
.ize handsome returns on sales and argue
that they are under no obligations to
release property, particularly when by
so doing they lose big profit.
