WASHINGTON, March 21.-Lower
steel prices are effective today as the
result of an agreement between the
/. industrial board and fifteen steel
kings" after a two days conference.
The reductions thus far announced
show price decreases of from 25 to
35 per cent below prices agreed upon
by the war industries board and the
steel industry for the last quarter OF
1913.
They show reduction Of from IA
to 1S per cent Delow the prices the
steel men themselves have put into
practice since the war industries
board ceased its control.
The complete schedule is being
held up, it was learned this morning,
until after a conference of the board
and the steel men and Attorney Cen
eral Palmer, at which definite opin-
ion is expected as to whether any
part of the agreement with the steel
men can be construed to violate anti
trust laws. 8
The agreements was the result OF
first effort of the industrial board to
bring down and stabilize war prices
and its success indicates that little
difficulty will be encountered in low
ering other prices by similar methods
With the lowering of prices, the
steel men are understood to have
entered sort OF "gentleman's agree
ment" to maintain these prices during
1919 so that the business world will
go ahead and not wait for more re-
ductions.

So far only a few of the prices have
been made public, but Judge Gary has
promised a complete new schedule to-
day Agreement was reached late
last night after twelve hours of d s.
cussion on most of the prices, but a

The prices announced are:

Merchant bars to s2.35 a hundred

Plates to $2~S5 a hundred pounds.
Structural steel $2.45 a hundred
pounds.
The reduction on billets amounts to
$500 a gross ton. while that on bars
plates and structural steel Is $500 a

Iron ore prices were not touched,
according to Judge Gary's statement.

Greatest Crisis in England's History is Faced
When Miners, Railway and Transport
Workers Join Forces.
MAY STOP ALL WORK TOMORROW
Government Would be Unable to Distribute
Food and Thousands of People Would
Face Starvation.
[By Arthur e. Mann, United Press
Staff Corespondentl

[By Arthur E. Mann, United Press
Staff Correspondent
LONDON, March 81. - Great
Britain is facing the greatest labor
crisis in its history. 1t will culni.
nate tonight when the triple alli.
.ance" miners, railway men and
transport workers-meet to decide
whether a general strike shall be
called tomorrow.
While the government has offered
some concessions to both the railway
men and miners, labor leaders de,
clare it must yield to every demand
of the triple alliance to avert an in
dustrial catastrophe.
Both sides refuse to make an OH
cial statement, but leader Of the
railway men made the following dec
laration to the United Press:
I'VE prepared f,1r the worst. II
we strike we will win. II we win
the government will fall and will be
replaced by labor ministry. The
government realizes the seriousness
Of general strike. It will mean
that thousands of people in the great
industrial district will face starvation
as the government would be unable
to run enough trains to insure distri-
button Of sufficient food"
Many laborites believe Premier
Lloyd-George is fully aware of the
danger of the situation and person
ally is inclined to sympathize with
the workers, but they doubt that he
has the support of the whole govern
ment.
Meanwhile committees of miners,
railway men and transport workers
today were preparing reports to be
submitted to the joint conference OF
their leaders, called for six p. n.
An eleventh hour proposal made by
the government to the railway men
last night includes a 4S hour week
and overtime pay at the rate of time
and a quarter for Sunday, time and
a half for night work and 36 cent
bonus for night. The present wage
basis would continue for the balance
of the year The government pointed
out that even these concessions
which are far short Of the workers
demands-would necessitate gen
eral rate increase. Naturalization
of the railways was not mentioned
in the governments order.
"It is new and modified order,
but I am una BILE to predict what the
verdict Of the railway mems dele
gates will be-" said J. H. Thomas,
leader of the railway employees. The
outlook is for more difficulty"
The railway men held brief meet
ing last night, but adjourned until
today without taking action. The
status Is uncertain If they should
resolve to continue negotiations on
the basis of the governments latest
proposition, owing to the fact they
are bound to cooperate with other
members Of the triple alliance" no
matter what individual decision they
might reach.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-The
"big push" toward read1ustment in the
industrial world is on full blast.
Government and business are bend
ing every effort to relieve uncertain
ty and start prosperity on the way.
The newly formed industrial board of
the commerce department, having
completed lower prices on steel, con-
templates the early consideration of
prices on Der, brick, cement, cop
per and many other materials, that
the whole market on materials may
be stabilized and building of all kinds
started up without facing price uncer-
tainties.
For so-called s'big business" there is
a movement afoot supported morally
at least by some of the most influen
tial members of President Wilson's
cabinet to revise the antitrust laws
and relieve confusion out Of war COM
binationsI
This revision and re-drafting OF the
federal antitrust code will very prob
ably be requested early in the session
of the next congress

Of the unemployment problem and
many other kindred troubles will be
modified automatically. There will be-
however, direct and persistent efforts
to reduce the cost of living, that now
being admitted generally as funda-
mentally necessary.
The newly created Industrial board
therefore, after it has stabilized the
market on building materials, will i'm
mediately take up consideration of
prices on textiles, manufactured pro-
ducts of all kinds and food.
The unemployment problem still
stands out as the most serious con-
fronting the country. The latest fig
ures show unemployment continuing
to increase, but to help ease this the
railroad administration and treasury
department are cooperating to provide

Their use as merchant vessels is i'm.
practical, owing to lack of carrying
space.
I'VE are not worrying about the
objection to the proposal that the
German warships be sunk" The
United Press was informed. Most
of those making objections are ignor-
ant of ships. If the French or the
Italians really want portion of the
German fleet, they can have 1t as far
as we are concerned, but | don't see
how it will do them any good. The
British intend to sink their portion
if the ships are divided, after parts,
such as pumps, copper and brass fix
lures and engines are removed. Then,
practically stripped to the bare ar
NOR, they viii be towed probably to
some part of the Atlantic. off Ireland
and sunk by opening their seacocks.
THE question of scrapping the
SHIPS and using their armor to make
farm implements or anything else, is
impractical 1t would mean placing
each ship in drydock at rental of
at least $500 day and the pay
ment of high wages to skilled WORK
men. 1t would be cheaper to buy
the raw steel and melt it, Even the
melting of armor plate would be d1f-
ficult, as it would necessitate sepa-
ration of chemicals, used for harden
ing, from the steel.

ships will have white elephant on

PARIS, March 21-Recommenda-

league of nations situation, increas-
ing the possibility of reaching a com
plete agreement on the revised
covenant by tomorrow.
The most important suggestion
made at yesterdays conference with
neutral representatives was that Of
the Swiss delegates, who submitted
a memorandum that is expected to
eliminate objection in certain Ameri-
can quarters to non-tnclusion Of the
Monroe doctrine.
The Swiss urged continued recog

whereby the great powers proclaimed
the neutrality and inviolability Of
Switzerland from foreign influence,
in the general interest Of the poll
tics of the whole of Europe. This
proposal is regarded in American
circles as virtually a European "Mon-

cation by the commission of the
question OF naturalization of the
