TRA|NMEN CALL
OFF K. c. STRIKE
MEETING VOTES TO TERMINATE
STRIKE WHICH THREATENED
TO TIE UP ALL TRAFFIC.
OFFICIALS ADVISE RETURN
Dissatisfaction Over Wage Scale and
Failure to Get Quick Action on
New Scale Cause of
Trouble.

KANSAS CITY.-The strike of rail-
road switchmen here, which began Sat
urday, was called off by the strikers
early Monday.
The first intimation that the strike
was ended came when delegation
of strikers appeared at the office Of
w. NJ Corbett, general manager of the
Kansas City Terminal Railroad COM
pany and announced that the men had
voted to go back to work.
The strike had been termed unau-
thorized by national officials of the
Brotherhood Of Railway Trainmen and
a representative of the national Off
GERS attended the strike meeting and
counseled the men to return to work.
Dissatisfaction over the present
wage scale and because the grand
officers have failed to get action" on
their demands, is said to be the basis
Of the switchmen's walkout.

Berlin.-It is stated in authoritative
quarters here that Germany will not
comply with the demand of the entente
for 10000 tons of docks, dredges and
tugs as an offset to the German war
ships sunk at Scapa Flow.
The government determination to
refuse to yield to the demand of the
the past few days by the Bremen and
Hamburg shipping interests, who have
been in active consultation with Off
cial quarters in Berlin. They charge
that possession of the tugs, dredges,
cranes and floating docks would give
France and Great Britain control of
Weser and Elbe ports, and that the
United States and neutrals, therefore,
would be wholly pendent upon the
good will of both these powers in the
matter Of using Bremen and Ham
burg, also that possession of technical
equipment In order that Germany
hands would be found to result in in
juring the efficiency of these ports in
the matter of docking Of vessels and
discharging cargoes and in keeping the
waterways navigable.
The Hamburg shipping interests de.
clare that the Elbe at two points is
continually sitting up, that unless this
condition is remedied yearly the river
would not be navigable. The Bremen
and Hamburg leaders assert that the
issue is one of vital Importance to
American interests, which eventually
will avail themselves of the compre-
hensive technical organization Of both
ports, which was kept intact during
the war.
The German shipping men are said
to see in the demand for river and
dock tonnage the shifting of the mer-
camille shipping balance of power else
where than Bremen and Hamburg and
eventual relegation of the ports, to the
place of secondary Importance. These
shipping men assert that if the added
tonnage now demanded as a penalty
for the Scapa Flow incident is surren-
dered, both Beremen and Hamburg will
be indefinitely unavailable for ship
ping.

ly necessary.

mills to continue the practice of op-
Grating three shifts was denied and
the ruling was made that strict com.
pliance to the 4S-hour week for man
ufacturing plants be observed.
No exception was made by the COM
mlttee in the cases where manufac.
turers use hydro-electric power, the
ruling being made that forces them

Plants that rely upon coal to furnish
their power. Plans are being formu-
lated for power from some of the
nonessential plants that have hydro
electric power to be diverted to parts
of the southeast where essential
plants are in the need of power and
have previously relied upon coal.

O'clock to do accounting that is ab-
solutely necessary to the successful
