ALL UPPER SILESIA
PARALYZED BY STRIKE
District Without Light or
PoUer-Mines Closed.
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN. July 27.-Of all the strikes in
Germany at the present time the one in
progress in Upper eilesia appears to be
the most serious. In this district the
electric light plant workers and the min
ers are on strike, and the district 10
without light or power. Every industry
in Upper silesia is threatened. due to lack
of power. None of the newspapers in the
district is able to publish. The workers
walked out ostensibly from Spartacan In
fiuence.
The mining strike in the Kattowitz dis
trict, which 10 part of Upper Silesia,
seems as far from settlement as ever.
After a stormy meeting, attended by en-
ployers, Government representatives and
miners delegates last night an arrange
ment was effected whereby, in return
for the withdrawal of the military forces
the miners consented to do emergency
work to keep the mines from flooding.
The mine workers are demanding an
increase of 10 per cent. in wages. assert
ing that the employers promised 1t last
May. The employers, in turn, assert that
they promised to make an effort to get
this increase from the Employers Asso-
citation, which declined to grant Il.
An effort will be made tomorrow to
settle the strike of the telegraphers At
that time a decision will be reached
whether to call for a general walkout of
operators throughout Germany or to re-
sumo work. The decision apparently
rests on the attitude Of the Directorate OF
Posts.
The metal workers, including those in
the Siemens-Schuckert plant. who are on
strike, have decided to call in the I'm
perial Labor Bureau in an attempt to me-
gotiate their difficulties.

SEES WRANGLING AS
MENACE TO BRITAIN
j. H. Thomas, NJ. p, Warns
Derby Audience of Possible
Loss of Trade.

LONDON, July ~. James Henry
Thomas, Member OF Parliament FOR
Derby, in an interview following an al
dress before his constituents last night
expressed profound anxiety concerning
the unstable domestic situation In Eng
land. Mr.. Thomas, who recently visited
America, said that the strong position
Of the United States could not be doubted
and that he had seen enough while there
to satisfy him that II was essential to
restore confidence in this country by IN
creasing production and keeping every
industry fully employed.
Mr.. Thomas's speech was his first ut
terance since he returned from America
He declared the people did not realize
that the country was living on borrowed
capital. He said that England's financial
condition, coupled with the manner In
which. labor disputes are magnified
abroad. had created an impression in
America that England was going head
long into bankruptcy and ruin. II was
essential for the Government to declare
its policy, he asserted. and thus remove
the suspicion of the workers that they
were unfairly treated, the reliance Of the
workers in strikes as q weapon alone be-
ing altogether undemocratic.
The Sunday papers give prominence TO
amplifications OF Mr.. Thomas's Derby
speech expressed by him in an inter-
view
Everything have seen in America,
taken in conjunction with events now,
occurring in this country. convinces me
that we shall lose our commercial su-
premacy unless we drastically change
our political methods" Mr.. Thomas is
quoted as saying. THE open Indictment
to violence appears to have become COM
mon in the last few weeks. No nation
which is constantly having q pistol
pointed at its head by Its own people
can live4
throughout America saw conclu-
sivcly that the fullest preparations were
being made to capture our commercial
| supremacy. What the people of this
country won't realize is that America is
| in a position to hold us up for ransom.
The United States does not need to i'm
port much raw materials and her eco
nomic position therefore is unrivalled
| to-day. On the other hand. she con-
| tains all OF the raw materials we require
| for our commercial reconstruction, and
unless we are prepared to manufacture
| on something like our old basis we shall
have to pay prices which in the long run
can only result in disaster.

INDICATIONS POINT
TO RECORD OUTPUT
OF COAL THIS WEEK
President Kennamer and
Mine Workers Organ
izers Are Still in
Washington

With two or three exceptions all the
coal mines in the birmingham district
were in operation yesterday and prac-
tically all of them were working full
crews. This was the opinion expressed
by a number of operators who had
heard from nearly every mining Sec
ton in the district during the day.
1t is estimated that the output this
week, IL the first days record is main
tanned until Saturday, viii run consid-
erably over 200, 600 tons and ii may APP
proach 500 900 tons.

Harrison and Hargrove of the United

ton last week in response to a sum-
mons from Attorney General Palmer
are still in the national capital and are
expected to remain there until the
termination of the conference between
the miners and the operators of the
central competitive field.
The operators and their representa-
tives who were IN Washington at the
request of the Attorney General have
returned to Birmingham. They express
satisfaction with the result of their
conference with the Attorney General
Secretary Clemo of District 20 OF the
United Mine Workers stated yesterday
in the figures, given out at Washing
ton relating to the number of miners in
the Birmingham district who had beer
refused their old jobs by the employers
He said that Mr.. Harrison and Mr.
Hargrove took with them the affidavits
of 1913 men who stated under oath that
they had been turned down when they
applied for reinstatement
Mr.. Clemo stated that other affidavits
could have been obtained if Mr. Har.
rison had had time to get them. but
the day or two allowed him before
returning to Washington on Friday was
entirely too limited to enable him t.
see any more.
The car situation is improving, 1t wa,
stated yesterday. and 1T is believed tina
there will be very little trouble in thi.
respect from now on. At some Of tn,
