Shutdown of

Employers and Union Otfi-

Little Hope for Settle

Both union printers and employers
in the book and job printing industry
in New York yesterday afternoon
agreed that general shutdown OF
business probably would be brought
about on October l.
The employers announced that they
had exhausted every device at their

Chief among the unions in the latter
class is Typographical Union No 6
which will hold mass meeting at New

afternoon. The call FOR this afternoon
meeting says that "a strike vote may
be taken" 1t was considered certain
last night that it would be taken.
There was less certainty, however
that the men would vote to walk out
because Of .the complications that would
grow out Of such action. The interna-
tional union of printers, through It's
officers, already has approved the plan

country on May /, 1921. Should the
local union decide to strike, a breach

have four other unions Of the print

lmperator Is
Taken Over bv
Shipping Board
L. 5. to Keep 8 Big German
Vessels and Transfer to
Cunard and Other British
Ship Lines Is Halted


ASHlNGTON. Sept. 27.-Eight Ger
man liners. including the former Ham
burg American steamer lmperator, sec
ond largest ship in the world, allocated
to the United States by the Inter-Al-
he'd Shipping Commission after the
signing of the armlstice and used to
bring home American troops, are to be
retained by the United States. Plans
TO place them IN passenger and fire ght
service are being prepared by the Ship
ping Board.
The Imperator had been aliocated by
the Allied Naval Commission at Paris
to Great Britain, and the British Min
lister Of Shipping expected that the
ship would be delivered to him to-day
at Hoboken for use by the Cunard Line
IN service between New York and Eng
land. The Shipping Board announced
to-day, however, that it had taken the
liner over from the War Department
and ordered a survey to determine re-
palrs> necessary for use as liner.
j. II. Rosseter, director of the divi-
sion of operations of the board, issued
tonight the following statement:
ut IS understood by the United
States Shipping Board that the I'M
perator. kaiserin Augusta Victoria and
SIX other ex-German snlps now in New
York were allocated to the United
States under the terms of peace. and
the board therefore assigned these YES
sells to the War Department for the
repatriation of troops. This service
being now performed the chairman of
the board requested the War Depart
ment to deliver the ships TO the United
States Shipping Board. Accordingly
the War Department this morning re
delivered the Imperator at New York
to the Shipping Board representatives "
While no official of the board would
stand sponsor for the statement, it was
understood that the action of the board
in retaining the ships was q direct re-
suit Of u decision by the Supreme Eco
nomic Council at Brussels to allocate
to the Allies twelve oil tank steamers
in German ports which the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey contends
are its property. The ships were op-
Grated under the German flag, but the
company claimed they belonged to its
German subsidiary.
Under Secretary of State Polk, head
of the American peace delegation at
| Paris, has sought to have the twelve
oil ships allocated for the transporta-
tion Of oil from the United States to
Germany. The representatives OF the
five great powers at Paris agreed. hu;
the Supreme Economic Council, on
which the United States is not now
represented, ordered Germany to turn
the vessels over to the Allies.

Paris Would Facilitate
Task of Rome Delegation

ROME, Sept. 81 (By The Associated
lster speaking IN the Chamber Of Dep
uHes to-day, devoted most of his at
tentlon to the status of President Viii
son IN the peace activities The For
elgnI Minister said he had suffered
daily anguish over the delay in the
settlement Of Italy's problems, declar-
ing 1t was thought that the departure
from Paris of President Wilson would
facilitate the task Of the Italian dele
gates.
On the contrary, Signor Tittoni as
serted, it had been made more serious
and complicated, as the American peace
delegatlon had to communicates with
the President by cable, which made
delay inevitable.
The question OF our relations witt,
president Wilson Will have to be
cleared up some day." the Foreign Min
isVer continued. "The inquiry must
not be limited to the period commenc~
ing with the opening of the peace con-
lerence' re nee put must go back to the time
OF the intervention of the United
states IN the war, and even further.
FROM the time of President Wilson'S
MANIFESTO in November, 1916. it was
clear he intended to become an arbiter
between the combatants. After the
intervention of the United States. this
characteristic of arbiter became accen-
tuated from December 81. 1917. our
Iorelgn ministry was informed that
President Wilson would be considered
IN Great Britain as the supreme arbi-
ter, be it for continuation of the war
or for the drafting of peace terms.
Some OF our diplomatic agents warned
the government it was necessarV t0
secure without delay President vii
sons support for our national claims !"
Signor Tittoni said that when the
war was ended with victory, he was
convinced Italy would be given recog-
milton of her national aspirations pro-
portionate to her sacrifices
On the contrary" he added. "the
Italian peace delegates had to engage
IN a daily struggle to obtain merely
partial recognition of Italys national
programme. The peace conference had
to forego its principal task of dra afting
peace terms and change itself into an
assembly to settle the fate of the
whole of Europe. to create new states.
to fix new frontiers and to govern
Europe. If the peace conference is
not or cannot be replaced by the league
of nations, it is impossible to foresee
when the activities of the conference
will end

Board would retain the eight German
liners, MIR. Rosscter said their alloca-
tion to the United States was perma-
nent. When the ships were delivered
by the Germans in England the Ship
ping Board. it was explained, turned
them over to the War Department for
use as transports, and has now taken
them back for commercial employment
Great Britain has contended that the
ALLEGATION of the eight liners by the
inter-Allied commission was only tent
porary, and that when the need for the
ships as troop transports had passed
they were to revert to the Allied pool
for permanent ALLEGATION among the
Allied and associated nations
The eight former German liners, in
cluding the lmperator. are to be turned
over to the Shipping Board by the War
Department as soon as necessary sur
veNs can be made.
Besides the lmperator, the ships are
the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria, Cap
Finistere, Graf Waldersee, Prinz Fried
rich Wilhelm, Pretoria. Mobile and
Zeppelin. All Of the vessels are now
in port in this country, most of then,
at New York.
A representative Of the Cunard Line
said last night that General +. p.
Hines, of the Port of Embarkation, re-
quested the line to take the lmperator
to the Cunard Pier at ! p m, yester-
day, but later sent word that the trans
fer could not be made, as he had been
requested to deliver the big vessel to
the United States Shipping Board.
"Somebody will have to pay big
bill for this miX-up," said the Cunard
official. eve have already started to
this country the crew that was to man
the Imperator and we will have about
eight or nine hundred men on our
hands unless the vessel is allocated to
US. Captain Smith, of the Caronia. is
here waiting to take command of the
vessel. Fortunately we have not
booked any passengers. but we have q
large waiting list"
