New German Strike
Threatens to Stop
Prussian Railroad
More Coal Mines Are Shut
Down as Workers Quit;
10000 Now Idle; Unrest
Still Grows in Austria

COLOGNE, March 20 (By The Asso-
ciatcd Press Reports from Essen and
neighboring towns show a serious in
crease in the number of strikers among
the coal miners. To-day 10000 men
are out, the result being that thirty
mund, Westphalia, and elsewhere meet
lngs were held, at which terms we're
demanded which seem dictated by a de-
sire to bring about the same disor-
dered conditions as those which existed
month ago. The demands include the
withdrawal of the government troops,
20 per cent increase in pay, additional
bonuses and six-hour day.
The strike fever is spreading also to
other fields; for instance, the Prus-
sian Hessian Railway, 5000 employees
of which passed a resolution threaten
ing to cease work on all lines unless all
their demands were conceded by Apri.
TO-
At Dortmund an anti Bolshevik meet
ing was taken possession of by Sparta
cldes, who demanded the overthrow
the government, the disarming of n
bourgeoisie, the arming of the pro
tariat and fresh elections to the 50
diers' and Workmen's councils.
PARIS, March 31.-Reports that the
railroad strike in German Austria has
been settled are untrue, according to a
Vienna dispatch to the echo de Paris"
Negotiations between the strikers and
Herr Renner, the Chancellor, AMI Herr
Deutsch, Secretary for Military Affairs,
have failed and the strike continues on
the Eastern and Southern Railroad, it
is said.
Colonel Cary, of the British army,
who is at Trieste, has offered to act as
arbitrator, but the strikers have been
destroying railroad property and stop
ping transportation of food. A council
of railroad workers has been formed in
Styria.
Chancellor Renner has implored the
strikers to moderate their demands,
pointing out that in case of complica-
tions the Entente troops will occupy
the country.
COPENHAGEN, March 31.-A confer
encc of workers. delegates at Essen
has adopted a resolution calling a gen
eral strike tomorrow. A Stuttgart dis
patch to the Berlin "Lokal Anzeiger"
reports the outbreak of a general
strike there.

modification of the protocol to which
Germany has objected.

War Saving Stamps
To Be Continued
Through Next Year

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5-Defnite
announcement that the government
will continue the sale of Thrift and
War saving stamps and treasury saw
ings certificates during 1920 was re-
ceived here today from the treasury
department by c. A. Farnsworth, as
sociate director of the war oar organ
ization of the twelfth federal district.
Il know that this will be pleasing,
not only to hundreds of able Amer.
leans, who, recognizing the value of
the governments thrift work, have
given of their time and ability in
furthering it," said Farnsworth. "but
it will be equally as well received by
those who have taken advantage of
the exceptional opportunity of saving
offered by the government through the
thrift and val saving stamps and
treasury savings certificate. To the
educators of the west, too, who have
adopted the governments thrift pro
gram in the schools as a valuable fac
tor in habit forming education, l am
sure that this guarantee of the per
manency of the war savings movement
will be gratifying"
In making the announcement, Will
lam Mather Lewis, director of the saw
ings division of the treasury depart
ment, said, THE savings movement is
to be continued throughout 1920. The
1920 issue of thrift and war savings

Gates will be on sale January l. Month
ly sales for 1919 have been showing
a steady and wholesome increase,
while the progress of the thrift love
ment in the schools and Industrial or
CARNATIONS and generally has been
gratifying. We are off to a flying
start for 1920 which promises to be a
banner year for the savings move
ment."

HUGE DEVELOPMENT OF
NAVY BASES ON PACIFIC
AND IN HAWAII URCEC

HONOLULU, Dec. 9-The special
navy board headed by Rear Admiral
Mexican, in its report recommends
the spending of S15S, OOO,O in dew
clipping the Pacific shore bases during
the next 8 years.
Because of the strategic position of
the Hawaiian Islands, the board says,
the development of Pearl Harbor into
a first class base is absolutely impera-
tive. TO do this the report says
Pearl Harbor must be developed so as
to be able to care for an entire war
fleet engaged in any movements of
fensive or defensive across the Pacific.
The developments here recommended
and which are estimated to cost
$4,000, 600, include another dry dock,
increased storage and warehouse
space, extension of the repair and
maintenance equipment, and a com
plete submarine base.
On the mainland the board recon-
mends a deep water fleet base at
Bremerton costing $44 LOCO, 900. and one
at San Francisco costing $51 700, 600.

CARRANZA PLOT TO CAUSE
REVOLUTION In u 6 EXPO


WASHINGTON, Dec. 9-Senator
Fall, in a memorandum submitted to
the President, shows that Carranza
supported a proposed revolution in
the United States on the understand
ing that following the success of this
revolt Mexico was to be given Ameri-
can territory along the border.
The senate foreign relations com
mittee obtained photographs of letters
from Carranza to the Mexican secre-
tary of the interior, Berlanga, recon-
mending three men for special con-
sideration for financial aid because of
their plans to put through the revolu-
ton and their plans regarding Texas
which were regarded very favorable
to Mexico.
The three referred to have been
identified as revolutionaries.
Other information handed to the
President includes treaty negotiations
between Japan and Mexico of a nature
which Senator Fall says would sound
preposterous except for their similar
ity with the Zimmerman scheme on
behalf of Germany.

$1,000 Offered For
Name For World
Metric Standard

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30-Rules
for the award of n thousand dol
lars to the person first suggesting the
best name word denoting L. S. Am.
erica and Britannia have just been an.
nounced by the World Trade Club of
San Francisco. The contest is open
to all humankind. Words to be con.
sidered must be received before May
1, 1920. One thousand dollars has
been deposited with the Wells Fargo
Nevada National Bank of San Fran
cisco, and the amount will be paid
in the currency of the nation from
which the best world is suggested, to
the person first suggesting the best
name.
It is interesting to note that names
have come from all quarters of the
Globe,-particularly from U. S. Am
erica, Australia, New Zealand, Tas-
mania, British Isles, Canada, the
Philippines, Eurasia, Africa, China,
Japan, Oceania. Names are pouring
in from all parts of the world, includ-
ing France and the scandinavian
countries. "Unitania" is the best
word received thus far. The question
now is, will someone devise a better
name than Unitania before May 1,
1920, and thus earn World Trade
Clubs award Of 100000?
Luther Burbank, the Plant Wizard,
has commended the World Trade
clubs effort toward metric Standardized
ton. In a recent letter he says: THE
metric system. if adopted by the whole
world, will, without doubt, simplify
the science of weights and measures
beyond computation"
Luther Burbanks applause is echoed
by thinking men the world over. Manu-
facturers, physicians, chemists, scient-
lists, educators, exporters and import.
ers, merchants, ministers, food grow
ers, workers in every way, individual
ly and through their organizations, are
petitioning legislators for this ad-
vance to world standardized weights
and measures.

ing made to ascertain where the bail
money came from.
