RESOLUTION AND PROTEST FROM
BUTCHER WORKMEN, LOCAL 651
Presented to Mayor Thompson by
Executive Board

Whereas, During the past week the
city of Chicago has had every semblance
of law and order cast ruthlessly aside
and murderous rioting has been INDUCED
in by the rowdy element of the white
and black races, and
Whereas, There is a greater majority
of liberty -loving, lawabiding citizens of
both races who have had their lives
placed in jeopardy as a result of this
outrageous state of affairs, and
Whereas, There is now need for drastic
steps to put an end to this wholesale
murder and destruction of property, and
Whereas, Many of the dependents of
the union colored men and women EN-
ployed in the stock yards are facing the
possibility of suffering even more by
the attitude of some of the white resi-
dents of the stock yards district who are
trying to prevent the accomplishment of
colored men in these packing houses,
Therefore be it
Resolved, that we, the officers and

7. PEACE TREATY
Party Committee Calls Pact
= ''Imperla|iStic,"

LONDON. Thursday, May s.
After meeting TO consider the terms Of
peace imposed upon Germany by the
illied and associated nations, the
sational executive committee OF the
British labor party tonight issued a
manifesto DECLARING the treaty in some
essential particulars, opposed 10 the
declarations OF Prcsiden, Wilson, OF
:he inter-allied labor conference and
Of the Bcrnc conference, and very de-
Iective from the standpoint, OF world
peace.
"lt bears evidence Of compromise
by capitalism and imperialism which
still dominate European states" the
manifesto declafed. ANY permanent
denial OF Germany OF an opportunity
10 become mandatory under the
league OF nations must cause JEALOUSY
and unrest, leading TO further inter
national dispute"
Other points criticised were the
failure to give Germany representa-
ton on the reparations committee AMI
the omission OF provisions for pro
gressive limitation OF armaments b.
other signa,ories to the treaty. The
manifesto protested against the per
manent separation OF the Saar basin.

Shortly before the war, when he

succeeded in getting his men mixed mp
pretty thoroughly.
However, he went grimly on, and at
last, calling a halt, rode up to Plumer
with an air Of importance.

Possibilities Of North Africa.

North Africa-Tunis, Algeria and
Morocco around half mil
lion square miles. Some Of 1t Is des-
ert, but much of it is highly produc-
tive, and it has special advantages for
producing some forms Of live stock.
The climate and pasture make it al
most as ideal country as Australia
for sheep raising, and it has peculiar
advantages for what might be called
extensive pig raising; its acorns and
other tree crops taking the place OF
corn. Yet down to the beginning Of the
war very little had been done to make
this potential wealth actual and avail
able.
