through utilizing, not destroying cap
ital. -
We arc doing now the work that
was under way when hunger and de-
privation brought about the revolu-
ton last November. The same result
would have been reached through en-
tirely peaceful means if the sailors
had not broken out at Kiel. We had
the whole thing planned in Dresden.
The socialists would have had the
support of what is now known as the
democratic party long ago except for
the question of separating church and
state.
/ am not free thinkerA | am a
member of a church, but do not care
to pay taxes to support any other
church than my own. At present this
is an important issues. owing to the
fact that there are 100000 men
voters and 21,000,000 women in Ger
many. The middle class women are
less independent and more easily in
fluenced by the priests than the
working women.
We shall press no women's meas
ures at this session of the assembly.
All our efforts will be with the men,
to stabilize the present government
Later we will demand admission on
an equal footing to all trades and
professions and equal pay for equal
work.
Much of the work of regulation of
women in industry is being done by
the workmen's and soldiers council

cil on which there are seven women
We work in harmony with the men
and on an equal footing, as we also
did in the election campaign just
past. At all the meetings mixed
men and women spoke.
Politics have become so much a
part of the life of the German women
today that l do not think there is
any question about their playing an
important part in national affairs
Also the shortage of man power dur
ing the last four years has thrown
many women into important execu-
tive positions I, for instance, am the
manager of a factory where we for
merly made violets and forget-me-
nOts by the gross. Women who are
accustomed to dealing with large
bodies of workers and handling big
industrial problems are better fitted
than large class of men who have
just come back from the fighting
front to deal with many OF the diff
cuties which are before the new
republic.

BRACE DECLARES
. POLITICS CAUSE
Of LABOR UNREST

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wtRsf
London, Feb l3.-rhe debate on
industrial unrest was opened in the
houseof commons by William Brace,
labor member of South Glamorgan,
who moved the official labor party
amendment in reply to the speech
from the throne. The amendment eX-
pressed regret at the absence of any
mention in the speech Of a definite
proposal for dealing with the political
causes of industrial unrest and for
securing in this connection working
hours and conditions of labor that
would establish a higher standard of
life and social well-beng fer the peo-
pies.
Mr.. Brace declared that not a lit
tie of the responsibility for the unrest
lay in the failure to give responsible
trade union officials such settlements
by negotiations as they were entitled
to receive, and in the granting of con
cessions regarding terms after uuof-
fetal stoppages of wcrk, which con-
cessions had been refused to trade
union leaders before the stoppage.
Organized labor, the member said
stood strongly for the settlement of
disputes by conference and concilia-
ton. The real cause of the present
unrest, he declared, was an accumu-
lation Of unsettled grievances.
He contended that If the situation
created by this uunrest was to be rem
edied, the government must go to the
root Of the matter and nationaliza the
land, the railways and the mines. AS
long as the question of naturalization
was unsettled, he asserted, there
would be serious Industrial unrest.

Santa Fe. Feb. 3 Governor Lar
razolo at the joint session of the sem
ate and house in the chamber of the
house of representatives presented the
legislature with the first state budget
for the fiscal years 1919 and 1920.
Much to the surprise of everybody the
budget aggregates very little more
than the appropriations made by the
legislature of 1917.
The governor said in part in his ad-
dress:
THE Increased business of the state
and the consequent additional work
to be done by the various state Off
GERS, departments. educational and
other institutions would seem to re-
duire corresponding additional ex-
pense, yet by comparing the total of
appropriations for the sixth and
seventh fiscal years with the corre-
spending appropriations for the eighth
and ninth fiscal years demanded by
this budget. you will find that these
totals are actually less for the eighth
and ninth fiscal years than they were
for the sixth and seventh. The total
rate of taxation for said purposes for
the fiscal years amount to 3 Il mills
while the rate for said purposes to
meet the appropriations of this budget
for the eighth and ninth fiscal years
would amount to 5 mills, that is one
fourth of mill less than previous
fiscal year and If we add 10 that the
increased rate of l mill for school
purposes which / have heretofore
recommended to you in my message,
we would only entail an increased
rate of taxation of n of a mill.
This reduction was made possible
by the board failing to recommend
any of the various appropriations de-
manded by the several state institu-
tons for additional buildings to the
same. The board is convinced that
practically all of our state institutions
are greatly in need of additional
buildings to meet the growing de-
mands on them, but in view of the
increased rate of taxation that | have
heretofore recommended TO you for
the support of our public schools as
well as for the road fund, which said
increase / consider to be absolutely
essential without being unduly bur-
densome on the people, we believe
another and different method might
be adopted by you in raising the ad-
ditional funds for building the addi-
tions to various state institutions. In

Paris, Feb. l3 1Havas.) )--Non-exe-
cution by Germany of the terms of
the armistice, President Wilson is un-
derstood to have declared in conver-
sation yesterday, would be an incident
of such a nature as TO justify the re-
sumption of war, is said that the presi-
dent asserted that he would not hesi-
tate in that case to order the Ameri-
can order to take up arms again.
On the other hand, it was said that
President Wilson regards resumption
of hostilities as a grave eventuality to
which he would agree only on the
most absolutely essential considera-
tions and not for any secondary mo-
tive.
Next Armistice Brief.
The supreme war council has de-
cided that the armisttce with Ger
many will be renewed on February
II for very brief period, with the
allies reserving the right to suspend
it at any time in the event of Ger
many's failure to carry out new claus
es or those which have hitherto not
been executed. 1t is stated the terms
will provide that the Germans must
cease hostilities against the Poles and
maintain their forces within fixed lim-
it's
During the brief period of the re-
neWed armlStice a special commission
will draft the conditions of an armis-
tice which will last till the signing of
the peace treaty. These conditions
which the supreme war council is re-
ported to have approved in rough
form yesterday afternoon, have in
view, it was said, the rehabilitation
of the German army and the disarma-
ment of the enemy under the supervf-
sion of the allies. These terms, it is
understood, will be communicated to
Germany so that the national assem-
bly, at Weimar will have time to dis
cuss them until the provisional armis-
tice expires.
Allies All Agreed.
Marshal Foch, who was to leave
for Treves today, was to interview
Premier Clemenceau at Paris this
time and begin drafting armistice pro-
visions which the supreme war coun-
Gil probably will examine this after
noon.
Premier Clemsnceau made an inn
pressive speech at yesterdays sitting
of the council, showing the necessity
of taking all desirable precautions
against Germany.
At the afternoon sitting President
Wilson is said to have taken the same
viewpoint, affirming that all the allies
were agreed on that point, and that
differences which cropped up during
previous discussions bore on the most
suitable methods of obtaining the nee
essary guarantees.
