Europe arranging relief for the peo-

has refused in emphatic terms to dis

Baron Won der Lancken and DIR.

A message from. Paris said these
two German officials who were prom

mission for relief in Belgium at Rot

by the German government to nego-

Hoover to advise them when and
where he would meet them.
In answer to the request for con-
ference, Mr.. Hoover sent this mes
sage:
"You can describe two and a half
years of arrogance toward ourselves
and cruelty to the Belgians in any
language you may select, and tell the
pair personally to go to hell with my
compliments. If / do have to dea

SUPREME COURT RULES THAT
CONVICTED LEAGUE LEADERS
MUST SERVE JAIL SENTENCE

i A few days ago the State Supreme
Court handed down a decision uphold
ing the convictions of Joseph Gilbert
and Louis w. Martin for disloyalty.
The men were convicted in .Goodhue
county last summer and appealed their
cases to the Supreme Court. In the
case of Gilbert the Supreme Court
was unanimous in it's decision. In
the case of Martin, Justice Holt dis
scented. Both men are prominent Non
Partisan League leaders, Gilbert be-
ing the secretary of the League and
head man in charge of the st. Paul
offices when Townley is absent.
Each will pay a fine and serve year

Such personal opinions as I have

feeling that Clemenceau has raised a
definite issue with President Wilson as
to whether Europe will continue to b
administered under the old balance of
power doctrine or by a league of ma

a spoke in the wheel of the Presidents
most characteristic proposition and in

New York, Jan. 1.-The American
transport Northern Pacific, which left
Brest, France, ON Christmas day with
2,480 wounded and well American
soldiers, sailors and nurses aent
aground at Fire Island, one of the
most dangerous points on the Atlantic
coast, in the rain and fog at $3.50 a. m.
today. Seven hours later, with
weather conditions unfavorable, rain
and snow falling internationally and a
southerly wind blowing the vessel
harder in the sand, navy officials saw
no prospect that the ship would be
released until tomorrow and coast
guard crew shot a line from the shore.
The vessel was rolling heavily in
sea which appeared to be getting
rougher, and while no apprehension
was expressed by navy officials as to
the safety of those on board, it was
regarded advisable to remove the
troops Immediately.
In the breaches bouy the uniniured
men were to be brought ashore while
the wounded and nurses were to be
removed In tugs and small boats to a
rescue fleet which including cruisers
and destroyers, was sent from the
army enlbarkation port, Hoboken, in
response to a wireless message re-
ceived from the stranded transport.
The position of the Northern Pacific
is believed to be good. The shore is
rocky in places, but it escaped strik-
ing the rests. A 20 mile wind, direc-
ton south to southeast was blowing.
Indications were that it might increase
to 80 miles an hour. Unless the wind
shifts there is no immediate danger.
Attempts to pull the big steamer
off the beach were rendered more diff
fcult by choppy sea. The weather
was thick and rainy.
A storm is due to strike the coast
later today, according to official
weather warning issued at 1880 this
morning.
Captain B. w. Blamer, chief of
staff to Admiral Gleaves, is directing
the rescue operations from New York
b wireless. He is in constant wire
less communication with the North
ern Pacific.
The Northern Pacific, Captain
Blamer said, is broadcast on to the
shore, one mile east of the radio
station on the west end of the Erie
island. His latest report from the
ship was that all was well on board.
On shore the coast guard crew made
ready for any emergency. There are
no hospitals in the vicinity. Captain
Albert Mahonic of the life savers
sent to families to be prepared to
open their homes to the wounded in
case they were landed on the beach. A
small comfort station with food sup
plies was set up by the life savers.
3 On the Northern Pacific, which is a
navy transport of 8,255 gross tons,
were 1879 troops who We're wounded
or sick, 625 who were well, II navy
nurses, rs sailors, 73 army casual of
fcers and II navy casual officers, In
ali 2480 men and women.
The Northern Pacific position is di-
rectly opposite the naral radio station.
Embarkation officials at Hoboken sex-
pressed the opinion that the heavy fog
was entirely responsible for the trans
ports plight.

He has been in the firing zone as

Mr. Clifford went over the top many

years old and was born at Oxford, Eng

Forty-five Thousand Longshore-
rflenAffected by the Ruling
Other Unions Win Raise.

A wage readjustment for longshore-
men and coopers or repairers working
on deepwater vessels was made public
at New York by the national ADJUST
ment commission. The chief points
were:
Establishment Of an eight-hour day
with Saturday half-holiday.
One dollar an hour for overtime In
stead of the old rate of rs cents.
Raising of the former wage of 30
cents an hour for regular work to 65
cents.
Forty-fve thousand longsh0remen in
New York, Baltimore, Boston, Norfolk
and Newport News are affected by the
ruling. which was announced as effec-
tive from October J., 1918, to Septem-
Der 30, 1919, unless the commission
should upon "its own motion, upon
grounds of national policy" decide 9th
erwise.

wage conditions should be the same as
those of the longshoremen.
A member of the commission said
that an award had been decided upon
for the checkers, who, through their
union, had asked for an eight-hour day
instead of one of nine hours, and n
daily wage of So instead of the 1915
row in vogue.
Deep sea longshoremen had asked
for an increase over the 65 cents an

SUDDEN CHANGE NOT LIKELY
Neither Employers Nor Employees IN
Big Center of Industry Worried
Over Situation.

Capital and labor in the Pittsburgh
district are optimistic concerning the
labor situation, as a result of the alb
rupt ending Of the world war. 1t is
the opinion of large employers of la
Dor and labor organization leaders
that no material changes will take
place within the near future.
The large majority of mills holding
war contracts are continuing to Oper-
ate on a wartime basis, with the ex-
ception Of few plants which have
discontinued overtime pay. Signs
have been posted in some of the mills
warning the men not to be alarmed
at the sudden change in the condition
of national affairs but to remain at
their posts.
While it is conceded that inevitably
there must be a readjustment of la
Dor in the vast industrial district, it
appears that the employers fully real
ize the grave dangers of cutting sal
aries or dumping war workers indis-
criminately on the labor market with
food at its present prices.
Fortunately the majority of the
larger plants in the Pittsburgh dis
trict, which have been engaged in war
work, are so constructed and equipped
that they can be converted into peace
time industrial plants without entail
ing financial loss Of consequence
One development, fundamental
change in the attitude Of steel men
in handling labor problems, viii make
room for more labor. AS rapidly as
possible, led by the United States
Steel corporation, the steel mills in
the Pittsburgh district will be placed
on an eight-hour basis, substituting
three shifts and continuous operation
of plants, for the double shift ar
rangement and an II and 12-hour day.
