MAY
 RETURN TO WORK
Understood That Strikers Will Go Back to Work All
 Over Country.

Members of the Bridgeport Broth erhood of Carpenters may return to work on the U. s. Housing projects that in a conference between the members of the Master Builders As sociation and the heads of the Ma tional Brotherhood of Carpenters Association, that the striking car- penters all over the country would return to work Thursday The un- derstanding is, according to advices received here, that an agreement will be drawn before Saturday morn ing which afford entire satisfaction to both sides of the controversy.
 The Master Builders have repeat edly refused to come to any agree ment unless the men returned to work while the carpenters refused to work before they received the wage increase they had asked for. The carpenters claim that they have not given up the fight, but will go out again if their demands are not met
 Martin Kane, business agent of the local brotherhood, stated that he had received no formal notification to send the men back to work, but that he had been in communication yesterday with officials in New York, and that the notices which have appeared in the papers of that city asking the men to start work tomorrow are perfectly authentic. He will not, however, or der the local men out until he receives notification from w. L. Hutcheson, head of the national organization. MT. Kane expects to receive such an order sometime during the afternoon.
 Prospects for the completion of the government houses are much better today than they have been since the walkout of the carpenters. With the return of the carpenters to work to- morrow the other allied trades unions will also return. and the work will proceed to completion in a very short time, it was stated by officials of the U. s. Housing Corporation this morn iny

During the brief period of the re- newed armistice, a special commission will definitely draft the conditions of an armistice which will last till the signature of the Peace preliminaries. These conditions, which the Supreme War Council is reported to have ap- proved in a rough form yesterday afternoon, have in view, it is said, the demobilization of the German army and the disarmament of the enemy under the supervision of the Allies. These terms, it Is understood, will be communicated to Germany so that the National Assembly at Weimar will have time to deliberate upon them un- til the provisional armistice expires.
 Marshal Foch, who leaves for Treves today, will interview Premier Elemenceau this morning and will be- gin drafting the armistice provisions which the Supreme War Council will probably examine this afternoon. -.
 It is reported that M. Clemenceau made an impressive speech at yes-

STEEPLECHASE
 DEAL COMPLETED
City Now Owns All Prop erty-M May Locate Port of
 Bridgeport There.

From authoritative sources 1t is learned that Steeplechase Island is now owned by the City of Bridgeport. The deal was quietly put over during the past few days. It appears that this transaction was rushed through by the powers in control of municipal affairs in anticipation of the success of the opposition to the Port of Bridgeport" activities.
 It now develops that should efforts fall to foist upon the public the Port Of Bridgeport, the scheme will be 10 transfer the site of proposed develop ment to Steeplechase Island. In fact, this latter proposition will not incur the expense required in the original plans. There will. however. be con- siderable opposition to the new scheme.
 Fairweather Island has been bought by the City o> Bridgeport for ths avowed purpose of converting il into public park and playground. Tho best information obtai nable now in dicates that this property. bought with the, peoples money. will be devoted to "piivate interests"

terday's sitting of the council, show ing the necessity of taking all desir- able precautions against Germany. At the afternoon sitting, President Will son is declared to have adopted the same view point, affirming that all the Allies were agreed on that point and that divergencies which cropped up during previous discussions bore solely on the most suitable methods of obtaining the necessary guaran- tees.
 President Wilson, according to the report, is understood to have declar- ed in conversation that resumption of hostilities was a grave eventual ity to which he would agree only on the most absolutely essential consid- erations, and not for any secondary motive. The report states that, in MT. Wilson's opinion, the non-execu- ton of terms of the armistice by Ger many would justify the resumption of war. and that he would not hesi- tate in that case to order the Ameri- can army to take up arms again.
