Great Britain is having a serious
time with the labor problem. Several
thousand workers in England, Wales
and Ireland have quit, either for more
pay or for shorter hours without re-
duction of wages. Belfast seems to be
in the worst predicament, for business
and transportation are virtually sus-
pended, riots are frequent, shops are
being looted every night and the city

The Polish commission of the SUI
preme council made up of representa-
lives of America, Great Britain,
France and Italy, prepared to depart
for Warsaw. II would seem that this
commission has a big job before it, for
while the Poles themselves are work
ing fairly tremendously under the
leadership Of Paderewski, they are be-
set by enemies on three sides and are
engaged in continual warfare. The
Russian bolsheviki and the Ukrainians
are unremitting in their attacks, and
now the Czechs are assailing the Poles
along their southern border. The for
mer have captured a number of towns
which they claim are properly within
the boundaries of -Slovakia, and
they also have seized the mining re-
glons of Karvin, upon which the Polish
state relies largely for its mineral sup
plies.
This fighting, Of course, is in direct
disobedience of the recent order of the
great powers that all hostilities must
cease everywhere, but the Polish rep
resentatives in Paris say their country
cannot stop fighting when it is under
constant military attack.

On the eve of the assembling of the
German national convention in Wei
mar, the Ebert government seemed
firmly seated in the place of power,
though there was possibility of COM
binations that would dominate 1t. The
Spartacans were in a hopeless minor
ity, however, and there was every rea-
son to believe the revolution" would
run the course laid out for it by the
old-time leaders, Who never have relin-
pushed control actually. That The
change of form of government has not
wrought a miraculous change of the
German heart or the German intention
to rule is the opinion of General Gou-
raud, the French commander, as 1t is
of many less well informed persons.
This view is borne out by the increas-
ingly insolent attitude of the con
quered Huns, and by their naive sur
prise and Indignation when they rea-
LIKED that they might not be admitted
TO membership in the league of nations
Immediately and on an equality with
the nations that saved civilization
from their criminal assault.
A French expert has summarized the
policies of the present German govern
ment as follows
INTERIOR. Complete unity. 2. Redi-
vision of the nation for administrative
purposes into number Of departments
approximately of equal size without
taking account of the present divi-
slons
Exterior. The annexation of Ger
man Austria. 2. Opposition to the for
nation of a strong Poland. :.
The annexation Of German Austria
may be baked by the formation of the
proposed Danube confederation of all
the states along the Danube, including
German Austria and Bulgaria, for 1t
Is figured that If Germany is permitted
to annex the part of Austria she covets
she would be stronger than ever in ter
ritory and population.
