Strike Fever Spreads
 London Tubes AreIdIe
Present Week Promises to Be Critical Industrially
 For Metropolis. BUSES AND STREET
 CARS ARE RUNNING Second Week of Strike in Belfast Begins With In
 creased Uneasiness.

London. Feb. 3-The strike fever, which has become cpl demic in the United Kingdom, spread to London today and the present week promises to be critical industrially for the metropolis. A few strikes have occurred in the city during the past few weeks, such as that of the Thames-side ship repairers and that of the barbers.
 The seriousness of the situation was not brought directly home to Londoners until this morning when they found the entrances to the prin- cipal tube stations closed to them ow- employees not to move trains today unless a. half hour luncheon interval were allowed them in their new eight hour day.
 
 are the Central London tube, which carries a. heavy traffic west and east and brings many of the city workers 10 their business; the Central tube artery, north and south; the city and south London, which connects with the chief railway stations and Picca- dilly; and the Brompton semi-circu- lar system, which carries thousands of travellers daily.
 The electric system of the London, Brighton and Southcoast railway, which serves many of the important suburbs, such as Richgond was also partly stopped, while other railways with similar services were threatened with stoppage. Therefore only two underground lines and the Hamp- stead railways were operating this morning in this district.
 The buses and the street cars were still running this morning, but for some time these have been unable to cope with the ordinary traffic, be- cause of the shortage of busses and cars and of men to operate them.
 The presence of large bodies of troops in Glasgow is believed to in- sure a continuance of the present state of order there, but at Belfast the second week of the strike begins according to reports received here, with increased uneasiness.
 For eight days Belfast has been using candles for lighting and most of the public services been at stand still. The curtailment of the fuel 1n1V if ing and indefinite prolongation of these conditions Is considered impos- sible.

railroad executives because they feel that the going Is particularly good and that they had better make private management hay while the anti government ownership continues to shine. I do not believe a solution in this spirit is going to satisfy the public"
 So far as physical operations are concerned, said the Director-General, there is no emergency which calls on the government to continue control of the railroads. He explained that the methods adopted by the railroad administration during the war now are open to reconstruction in the light of peace conditions, adding that this had been Mir. McAdoo's attitude.
 MT. Hines presented the following arguments for a five-year extension:
 Tt will give advocates of govern ment ownership full opportunity to press their views without being influ- enced by the temporary reaction against government control.
 "It will remove the necessity for undue haste in solving such a big problem as the future of the rail- roads; it will stabilize employment and wage conditions; permit prosecu- ton of a big program of big improve ments and extensions, help to take up the slack in employment and mater ials during the critical period of re- adjustment.
 Tt will protect security-holders pending an ultimate solution.
 Ut will minimize the danger of making the railroad question a purely partisan issue, to be consid- cred in an illogical manner, in the presidential elections"
