 TAKING ACTIVE PART
 IN BRITISH CAMPAIGN

LONDON, Nov. 5.-Mrs. David Lloyd George, wife of the British premier, is taking a prominent hand in the prohibition campaign, address ing a meeting of 2,000 women at Glasgow yesterday.
 Dispatches received here quote Mrs. Lloyd George as saying the sue cess of the campaign depended upon women.
 "It is the duty of women to help the victims of alcoholism at home as it was to help the victims of Prus- sianism in Belgium five years ago" Mrs Lloyd George is reported to have said.
 Scotland is on the eve of great campaign and next year the eyes of temperance reformers throughout the world will be focused on Scotland. If Scotland is won, the victory will De a great stimulus to the world to do likewise

ALASKANS GET
 ALL THEY ASK
 IN LEASE BILL
Northerners at Washing ton Pleased With Oil
 Measure and Assess
 ment Work Resolution

Word from Washington is that the ,il leasing bill as it passed the House was very satisfactory to the Alaskans at the national capital. All the amendments asked for by Delegate George B. Grigsby were adopted by the committee and included in the bill when it was reported. Still an other amendment was decided upon by the Alaskans and Delegate Grigs- by, through Representative Scott Fer ris of Oklahoma, formerly chairman of the Public Lands Committee, se- cured its adoption on the floor of the House of Representatives.
 The resolution eliminating assess ment work for 1919 on all mining claims, including oil, was adopted in such a way as to relieve any doubt IS to Alaska. The House Public Lands Committee and the Interior Department believed that it was not necessary, holding that the resolution of last February was not affected by he resolution of August which re- ferred to the rest of the country. The resolution of last August provid- ed that only five claims could be held by any one ownership without doing assessment work. A resolution was adopted to amend this by striking out the limitation to five claims, and Delegate Grigsby induced the com mittee specially to include Alaska in it, so there could be no question that no assessment work of any kind had to be done in Alaska for 1919.

bring about compromise between the
ship owners and strikers, acting in the
role of mediator. which he assumed
earlier in the day. The men demand
full pay for the past month during
which they have been idle. Sir Regi-
nald suggested to the ship owners that
the men be paid for Is days. The own
ers refused to consider the proposal.
Under the decree issued by the gov
eminent the customs house will use
government tugs in loading and I'M
loading ships in the harbor., 1t is pro-
vided that all vessels refusing to ac-
cept the services of the government
shall leave the port The men employed
on the work will be fedsin government
kitchens at cost prices.
The decree will become effective Mon
day morning.
The government says it has enough
men to assure efficient service
The preamble to the decree says that
1t is impossible to permit further
prolongation OF the port strike, be-
cause it is prejudicia1 to the welfare
Of the country.

Condemned by Labor Body

Newark. March 1.-THE mo beer, no

condemned by 400 delegates of the New
Jersey State Federation of Labor and
State Building Trades council at a joint
meeting here today. The delegates, how
aver, adopted resolutions urging Con
grsss to repeal both wartime and per-
manent prohibition and calling on Pres
ident Wilson for aid.
"A general strike for beer by laboring
men on July l would make US look RI
dicufous," declared Henry +. Hilfers,
secretary of the labor federation, one OF
the speakers. "A general strike always
means disruption of organized labor.
We must express our protests by other
means
Among resolutions adopted was one
calling on the American Federation OF
Labor. at its convention in June. to
protest vigorously against prohibition,
while another attacked the federal pro-
hihition amendment as "a dangerous pre-
cedent" This resolution asserted that
while las law abiding Americans we
must obey the law no matter how OBJ
noxious, we condemn the methods used
and unfair advantage taken in having IL
ratified while the nation was at war and
contrary in some instances to the wisnes
of the people,
The delegates adopted another resoiu-
ton asking repeal of the espionage act
as nc longer necessary.

SUDDEN ENDING OF
| WAR SAVED HUNS
FROM AIR TERR0RS
Helium-Filled Airships Car
rying Ten Tons of Explo-
sives Ready to Fly Over
Germany This Spring

Washington, March L. --pifferenees be-
tween the bureau of mines and the war
and navy departments regarding the
best method for producing during the
war large quantities of helium, nom
inflammable balloon gas. were disclosed
tonight In a statement by Acting Secre-
| tary Roosevelt of the navy department.
Mr.. Roosevelt said that apparatus for
producing the gas was not designed un-
| til after the navy department mad ln-
sisted in opposition to the bureau that
commercial organizations be called upon
| to propose methods.
The high military value of helium was
recognized by the allies in the early
stages of the war, Mr.. Roosevelt as
serted, and when this country, soon after
| its entrance. was urged to cooperate in
obtaining an ample supply the army
and navy departments, he said, promptly
allotted funds to the bureau of mines
for the development of proper apparatus
to produce the gas.
| Mr. Roosevelt stated the bureau of
mines decided to design its own apparatus,
in spite of objections of the war and
navy departments that long delays
would result from such procedure. Moth
| ing could be done at the time. he SAID,
| and it was not until two high officials
of the British navy visited this country
and pointed out the great need for the
gas was the matter brought to
crisis
Additional funds were provided then
by the war and navy departments. he
said, and the bureau of mines was spe-
officially instructed to call upon qualified
commercial organizations for advice and
designs. Contracts were made by the bu-
reau with two companies and within
four months suitable apparatus was in
operation.
| During this period. Mr.. Roosevelt
stated. the bureau advised that the COM
panies experimental work be stopped.
| The war and navy departments. how
ever, insisted that it be carried forward,
| he said with the result that ''if the war
| had lasted until next spring the Brit
| ish and American governments would
have sent helium- filed rigid airships over
strategic points in Germany, each capa-
| BILE of dropping a total of 10 tons or
more of high explosives
