PRINCE IS CENTRE OF
HANDSPRING FIESTA
CrotOd of 20, 900 Cheers Him
at OttatOa Reception.

OTTAWA, Aug. 29.-More than 10000
persons assembled at the City Hall to-
day in hopes of being among tho few
who would shake hands with the Prince
OF Wales during the public reception
held at the visitors request.
Long before the Prince was due the
cheering began. and when the royal au-
tomobile was sighted the playing Of sew
eral bands could not be heard above the
din. As the car stopped before the
building II was all the police could do
to escort the Prince to the door, and
Immediately upon his entering thousands
OF hands were thrust out for the royal
grasp.
During the next hour $500 persons,
old and young, had shaken the Princes
hand, while q crowd OF ten times that
number awaited their turn. When II
became apparent that all could not
meet the future King, Mayor Fisher
closed the doors and with the aid of a
megaphone succeeded in announcing that
the Prince found 1t impossible to shake
hands with every one but was coming
out to speak to the waiting crowd.
The Prince appeared Immediately, but
the cheering was SO spontaneous he
could not be heard and while waiting
for the greeting to subside he leaned
over the railing and shook hands with
all he could reach.

After Armistice.

PARIS, Aug. 29.-The hearing OF Gen.
Pershing' by the War Expenditures In
ycstigation Committee OF Congress has
been postponed until tomorrow at 10
o'clock. He will be asked about attacks
made on the Germans by some American
troops the day after the armistice was

to military operations.
The destruction OF material owned by
the American Expeditionary Forces in
France Is receiving particular attention

worth Of aviation stock at Colombey-la-
Belle and the destruction of motor vehi-
cles at Romartin, of which the French
have complained officially.
There seems to be a difference of APP
probation between French and Ameri-
can officials as to the value Of the ma
terial broken up at Romartin.
The committee probably will pass sew
eral days examining in detail the bulk
sale to the French Government OF Amer
lean goods comprising $4,000, 900
worth of food and 100000 worth of
clothing.
The committee made n tour of Cha

the British area of the old war zone
before beginning its sittlngs in Paris,
which will continue until all sources OF
information here regarding the DISPOSE

HOUSE ACTS TO SAVE
NEW ARMS OF ARMY.
Bills Prevent Breaking Up of
Air, Tank and Chemical
Warfare Services.
Special Despotch to The sus.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2e.-Bills TO pre-
vent the disintegration OF the newer
branches of the army. particularly the
Air Service. the Tank Corps and the
Chemical Warfare Service. because Of
lack of officers. were passed by the
House to-day.
The legislation, which has been ap-
proved by the Senate, increases the
number of officers in the army during
the present fiscal year from 1880 to
$4,000. 1t was made necessary because
of the assertions OF the War Depart
ment that undcr the national defence
act only a small number of officers
could be retained in the newer divisions
OF the army.
This was responsible for the release of
n large number from the air service,
and the assertion of Secretary Baker
that additional reductions would have
to be made until the flying personnel
would be insufficient to protect the Mex
lean border.
Under the new law the number in the
air service is fixed at 1900, OF which
SIS per cent. must be fiers. This will
pilots, IL is believed. For the motor
transport corps 444 officers are allowed,
for the tank corps 113 and for the chem
ical warfare service 1913.
Because about 10000 sick and
wounded must be cared for during the
next year the bill increases the number
of medical officers to 2.S77. about 80
per cent. larger than its quota under
peace time conditions.

LONDON, Aug. Gov. A. Appleton
secretary Of the General Federation of
Trades Unions in his quarterly report
criticises the federation severity for its
policy of making strikes political instru-
ments. He asserts many strikes could
have been avoided and that calling them
merely wasted the union funds.
Political strikes" he says, "either fail
or end in revolution. They are not
against the capitalist, but against the
community. Against such strikes the
Government must protect the public or
surrender its functions. The effect Of
such strikes is to decrease production
and boost prices. 1t is imperative that
the trade unionists realize that there is n
trade war between nations and that
food and raw materials needed at home
must be bought in foreign countries
whose merchants are not under the con-
troll OF our Government These goods
must be paid for with other commodi-
ties not with paper. The ensuing year
will be fearful unless we return to san
ity and increase production. Unless this
Is done the months to come will be
tragic"
This line of argument is typical of
many now being addressed to Britain's
laborers, and they have been 80 frequent
and SO strongly worded that they are
bouno to have effect. In fact. 1t Is no.
ticed that various elements in the indus
trial world already are beginning to
withhold forceful action until a careful
study can be made of the general trade
situation. The conservative leaders see
In this inclination to study the broad
principles of international trade and
finance a real hope for the future indus
trial peace. Men like Appleton say
that when the working classes under
stand the broader phases of production
and of demand and supply they will be
less inclined to fly into a rage and call
strikes on minor issues. but will concen-
trate on action through the polls instead.

LABOR DAY APPEAL
PLANNED BY WILSON


Gary Allied Iron and Steel Workers
Council. follows:
your telegram received stating that
steel workers are being disseminated
against and discharged wholesale for
purpose of forcing strike. The steel
companies are doing the same in many
other places. But in spite OF this perse-
cution try TO hold men at work until
all amicable means of settlement have
been exhausted.
"The executive council OF the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor Ii negotiating
for a conference with President Wilson
to-day The steel companies show by
their actions a determination to force
the issue before the President has had
chance to pass on merits of con-
troversy. We are doing all possible
to secure justice for the men and to
prevent the national disaster OF a gen.
eral strike in the steel industry Do
not strike under any circumstances I'M
IN the strike date has been set by your
committee"
This indicated clearly the disposition
Of the men to wait upon the Chief
Executive before calling general
strike.
The executive council Of the American
Federation devoted It's time To-Day 20
hearing reports on unsettled conditions
from every section 1t took no action.
II was stated early In the day that a
general statement on results might be
Issued tonight. but II has not been
forthcoming.
A statement from President Gompers

the actions OF the executive council is
regarded as likely.

LEGACY TO PREMIER
PRAISED IN BRITAIN
Carnegie's Other Requests
Excite Some Comment.
Special Gable Despatch to THE suS.
Copyright, 1919. all riohts reserr,d

LONDON, Aug. 2s.-To Englishmen
there is something humorous In An
drew Carneg!e's legacies TO persons
on this side OF the water, especially In
view OF the fact that two OF the benc,
ficlaries are dead. There is a great deal
OF satisfaction expressed over the gift
to Premier Lloyd George. who Is not
wealthy and has been so busy serving
Great Britain that he has not had time
TO make much OF fortune for himself.
His official income has been less than the
necessary expenditures of his Office
Commenting on the legacies the Evenin1
STANDARD says edtorially:
with single exception Mr.. Carnegie
made mistakes. In choosing Mr.. Lloyd
George he selected a public man whose
work Is already completed To grant
annuities TO Lord Morley, Thomas Burt
and John Burns Is to endow a genera
tion that can no longer Justify the donor
by giving ample and restricted service
to the public. Yet the intention is noble
and may inspire other wealthy men TO
be more successful In the same dlrec-
ton"
Mr.. Carnegie's gifts to prominent
statesmen marks n realization of one OF
to-day's political problems" says the
Westminster Gazette. "a political life
was formerly a career. For the wealthy
II was business. and for a small oil
garchy pastime. The advance Of
democracy made such a system impos-
sble and the increasing perplexity OF
public affairs makes It undesirable for
men OF genius Inspiration In all ranks
OF life Is urgently needed The uncer-
tainty of political life with its many
failures and its poorly endowed prizes
make II precarious career for the poor
man. Mr.. Carnegie has removed
burden from the shoulders OF distin-
guished men OF moderate means"

BRIT. WAGE ADVANCE
ACCEPTED BY UNION
Stormy Meeting Ends Present
Menace of New Strike.

After wrangling for two hours ct
Arcadia Hall. Halsey street and Broad
way, Brooklyn, 5000 members of the
Amalgamated Association Of Street AMI
Electric Railway Employees last night
voted to accept the proposition made by
the B. r. T. for 25 per cent. increase
in wages and arbitration for the mems
other demands. This action does away
with the likelihood OF another strike, at
least in the immediate future.
The proposition was read by Edward
Smith, president Of the local. Immedi-
ately scores of persons clamored for
hearing. The younger employees were
the only ones who were voclferous In ar
guing that the company's offer be re-
jccted. For time it looked as though
the meeting would get beyond the con-
troll of Patrick J. Shea, who led in the
recent strike. and who was the presiding
officer. Shea called one man liar" at-
ter the latter had charged that Receiver
Garrison had offered IS per cent. wage
boost before the strike.
