Majority Socialists have been turned
out of every position they have at
tempted to defend. The Ebert -Schedc-

how greatly public opinion is against
them.

what the most liberal elements of the
world think, will produce great
change in the sentiments of the Ger

Paterson Strikers to Ask
War Board Intervention
Committee to Visit Washington
and Urge Fixing Of Hours
for Silk Industry

PATERSON, Feb. "a committee Of
six men, three each representing the
27OO0 striking silk workers and the
silk manufacturers, will go to Wash
ngton tonight and request the Ma
tional War Labor Board to decide upon
temporary hours under which the work
ers may Immediately return to work,
pending a decision as to permanent
hours throughout the industry. 1t is
expected that the temporary decision
will be made Immediately. permitting
the workers to return to the mills on
Thursday
1t is believed that the temporary
hours will be forty hours weekly, or
eight hours daily for five day a week,
with a whole holiday on Saturday.
While it is expected that the great
majority of the workers will abide by
the decision reached between the rep
resentatves of the United Textile
Workers and the manufacturers, some
opposition is expected from the l. W..
w. and the W. I. |. u, who compose
the radical forces. These bodies, who
claim control of 5000 workers but have
membership Of less than 1000, are
standing by their demand for forty
four hours.
Adolph Lcssig. leader of the I. W. w,
has called a mass meeting at tho Audi
torium, Ellison Street this city, for to-
morrow morning. H. J. Rubinstein,> Of

A "Workers' Council" consisting of
l. w. W., Firms, Pearse- Connolly Club
members and members of radical labor
unions, was organized to-day The
Pearse- Connolly Club is local Irish
organization allied with the Sim Fem
ers in Ireland.
Regarded as Bolshevik
|. w. WIS and Firms this afternoon
at a mass meeting organized their
forces into companies under the com
mand of captains and squad leaders for
picket duty, and this afternoon the
leaders, some of them speaking through
interpreters, addressed crowds in the
street from the upper windows of Fin
landers' Hall. They assigned the men
to their respective companies and fixed
meeting times for the different bodies.
Companies designated A, B, c, D, E
and F were formed, and the captains
were given secret orders to be relayed
to the squad leaders. This organiza-
tion is regarded in some quarters as a
sort of Bolshevik "Ked Guard" and it
is expected to meet with { short shrift
at the hands of the military II any
further attempt is made to prevent
miners from going to their work.
Major Jones arrived this afternoon
with Company c of the 44th Infantry
(regulars) from Fort George D.
Wright, at Spokane, comprising about
200 men with machine gun equipment.
This increases the number of regulars
in Butte to about 800, and more troops
are said to be en- route. The radicals
are believed to number more than
5000. Major Jones announced to
meeting of the radical soldiers this
afternoon that he chad cleaned up the
scum of the Panama Canal" and that
no disorders at all would be permitted
in Butte.
Squads of l. W. W. to-day marched
on several of the mines and tried to
call off the hosting engineers. They
were dispersed by sheriff's deputies.
Aliens here continue to talk revolu-
ton, and, as far as they are concerned,
they believe that the revolution is in
progress. They talk at. their meetings
of "the day"
No work has been done in the mines
since the policy of curtailment
of production was inaugurated, but to-
the morning shift should go on
as usual. 1t is not definitely settled,
however, whether All attempt will be
made to resume operations before the
arrival of more troops.

On Seattle Strike

THE great Seattle strike began
H. on January 21, when 25,GO0
shipyard workers walked out to
enforce demands for higher wag-
es from the Shipping Board.
On February 6 the Central La
Dor Council of Seattle called a
general sympathetic strike of all
trades. The number of workers
who responded has been variously
estimated at from $4,000 to 5O,-
600.
The strikers announced a pro-
gramme which was said to have
many of the earmarks Of Rol-
shevism.
Mayor Ole Hanson took a firm
stand against this programme
from the start. He declared the
strikers would not be permitted
to interfere in the government of
the city.
Fifteen hundred Federal troops,
commanded by Major-Gencral
John +. Morrison, are assisting
the police in maintaining order.
The general strike committee
voted Saturday night not to COM
ply with Mayor Hanson's demand
that the sympathetic strike be
called off.
Seattle's streetcar service was
nearly normal yesterday, and the
authorities declared the backbone
of the strike was broken.

LONDON, Feb. 9.-The strike situa-
tion is specifically better, but really
remains unchanged, except that the
regular union leaders are gaining just
little more ground.
London's tubes are still out of COM
mission. While the union which or
dered the tube men out has reached an
agreement, another union has ordered
the strike to continue, SO that in addi-
ton to the original dispute there is
now secondary union dispute, which,
is, of course, sign of weakness.
The situation in the Clyde area re-
mains unchanged. The presence of the
military has prevented further dis
order and has enabled the few men
who did not want to strike to return
to their work. But the general situa-
tion is unaltered.
