Representatives of unions of ship
yard workers met with officials of the
Navy Department and the shipping
board today to press their demands
that the orders of the department and
the board canceling any wage in
creases after October / be withdrawn.
The men also are asking for forty
four-hour week, but Secretary DAN
ielS said today that he had no au-
thority under the law to grant such
a week with forty-eight hours pay.

The Navy Department and shipping

the long run.
Shipyard workers on the Pacific
coast are threatening to strike on
October 1. unless the order is can

Strike Situation.
USE OF TROOPS RESENTED

LONDON, September 30.-Great Brit
ain is making Roadway in dealing with
the national strike of her railwaymen,
the government reported today. The
official communique from Downing
street at noon announced that the rail-
way service was improving, more trains
having been run than called for under
the schedules prepared by the COM
panies yesterday. This was in line with
forecasts that betterment of conditions
in this respect might be expected today.
Volunteer workmen are reported COM
ing forward to run the trains, and the
government has invited citizens to
act as special constables in emer-
gency.
Attempts to derail trains occurred
yesterday for the first time since the
strike began. and two trains were
stoned near Aberdeen. Minor Incl
dents are reported at various other
l.places.
Government officials have issued
regulations providing for price fixing
and restricting the consumption of
staple foods. Motor 1orries are bring
ing milk and foodstuffs into the city
and a system of distributing has been
worked out by the cabinet. Posses
sion of all the transport machinery
used during the war makes the gov
ernment's task easier than had been
expected

MOVING VANS ARE
KEPT BUSY TODAY
Many District Residents En-
gagged in Changing Places

Local storage and moving van concern
men were unable to explain why the
people of Washington are changing their
residences today instead of waiting I'M
til the time -honored October i. But the
fact remains that moving is on in full
blast.
Concerns report much heavier moving
activities this year than last, but not
as heavy as two years ago. Moving
day was practically wiped off the
householders' calendar here last year.
Apartment House Changes.
Apartment house changes were in the
ma jority today. In many cases big vans

of apartment, and other vans would
Immediately back UP with furniture to
go in the same apartment.

and from house to house--in lesser de-
gree-will continue tomorrow.

and to make sure of that apartment.
were reasons given for the demand
| for moving vans today. Apartments
are still mighty scarce. and those who
| were to take up leases October
perhaps thought that if they waited
| until tomorrow they might find some
other "squatter" there before them.
The majority of the moving concerns

Delegation From Three Un-
ions Would Adjust Wages
and Working Conditions.

A delegation representing the three
trades Unions of stationary engineers,
stationary firemen and engine oilers
afhliated with Central Labor Union
called on the management of the Po1
tomac Electric Power Company today
In an effort to bring about an adjust
ment' Of wages and working condi-
tons OF the men employed by that
corporation from the three unions.
Thomas L. Jones' business agent of
the stationary engineers, said that the
three organizations were 100 per cent
organized in the city and that practi-
cally all Of the men operating the
power plants of the big electric light
and, power company were members Of
the three organizations. He said that
the committee that was to meet the
management of the corporation had
been for weeks seeking to secure from
the company recognition of the three
unions that the question Of a reason
able increase in their wage scale to
meet the high cost Of living might
be discussed.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-09-30
Recognition Sought.

He expressed the hope that at the
conference today that recognition
might be accorded the men and thus
open up channel through which the
wage scale and working conditions
might be taken up and disposed of.
John r. Hartley. representing the
hremen. expressed the same opinion.
The contention. it is understood,
made by the officials of the power
company Is that the COMMITTEES does
not represent their workmen and the
argument Is made that as the rates Of
the company have not been increased
to meet the increased cost of material
and general operation they are not
In position to make any advance Of
wages.
This effort to secure recognition and
better conditions has nothing to do.
1T is said, with the similar movement
being advocated by the members Of
the street car mems union.

Another Cause of Anxiety.

Greatest anxiety is felt by the peo-
pie of London over the question
whether buses and tram cars will
stop working today, the continuance
of this service not being regarded
very hopefully. Decision in the ques-
ton depends Immediately upon the
union of licensed vehicle workers.
which is one of the thirty-six organ
izations affiliated with the transport
workers federation. but which is able
to act Independently. In the present
instance. however. it is acting en-
tirelY under the advice of the Trans
port Workers Federation. which in
turn is cooperating closely with the
National Union of Railwaymen.
The executive committee Of the
union of licensed vehicle workers sat
continuously for fourteen hours yes
terday, not adjourning until after
midnight this morning. Announce
ment was made that the union had
postponed action until today at the
request of the Transport Workers
Federation to enable the latter to con-
fer with officials of the National Union
OF Railwaymen.
Suburban residents. therefore. were
able to use buses and tramcars to
reach London this morning, but 1t is
regarded doubtful whether these
means of conveyance will be avail
able for the return trip, as it is be-
lieved a majority Of Che licensed We
hicle workers favor a strike.

Strikers Resent Use of Troops.

Employment Of troops to protect
railroad property is being resented
by strikers at some places, apparently
through the fear that the soldiers
may be used as strike breakers.
Speakers at a meeting ct Nuneator,

ment that serious consequence would
follow the employment Of troops.

Distribution OF troops to various

IMPORT men TO
BREAK BOILER
Makers STRIKE
Strikers Receive First Benefit
From International Body;
Men Leave City to
Work.

More than 20 strike breakers have
been imported by the Drake-Wil-
liams- Mount company, boiler max
ers, from nearby cities in an effort
to end the strike which has been in
progress for more than two weeks.
B. O. Mount, one of the company
managers, stated yesterday that
a few of the strikers had returned
to work. Nearly all the others were
strike breakers.-
More than 100 bbiler makers and
,their assistants are out. They ask
for 50 cents an hour for machin-
lists and 90 cents an hour for helpers.
Not a single striker has returned
to work, w. V. Angel, international
organizer for the boiler makers, who
is conducting the strike in this city,
declared. He stated further that the
men were ready to continue their
strike for an indefinite length of
time. They have the support of the
international body and yesterday
received their strike benefits from
the funds of the international bbody.
According to Mr.. Angel, many
have left the city and obtained work.
Others have taken jobs as laborers.
The latter, Mr.. Angel declared, are
now receiving more money than
they did when engaged as boiler
makers.
