London, January 2S.--Serious strikes and threats of more serious ones in Eng land over disputes which originally would be considered unimportant have led some students of British labor con ditions to the belief that the demands are made not in an effort to better labor conditions. but in an attempt to revolu- tionize the whole condition of labor em- ploymen.
 Today l47.O0p Yorkshire coal miners are idle because their employers decline to allow a0 minutes "iead time for meals for surface workers. The employers wanted the men to eat in relays and thus keep the machinery gong. Stoppage of work in the great siiipbuilding indus try on the Clyde is threatened over a neal hour dispute. Under the old 54-hour week the men went to wor,S with empty st OF, achs. They worked two hours and then had an hour for breakfast. Under the new i1-hour plan. which has been agreed to, TO time is a,io wed for break- fast and work Is to start at o'clock. The discontent is said to be caused by the women who do not like to arise in time to prepare an early breakfast.

FOUR MAIN SUBJECTS

The council of the great powers to- day definitely set forth four main sup- jects to be presented at the full con- ference on Saturday. First interna- tional legisIation, second, responsibility and punishments for the war; third, indemnities; fourth, interpationaiization of ports waterways and railways.
 These subjects are not to be dis cussed in detail, but will be immedl- ately referred to committees for study and report The American mem berS of these committees were selected at an extended conferences between President Wilson and the American delegates this afternoon.
 The American plans on the first topic are already we'll advanced. While there is no definite information on the second point relative to responsibility and punishments for the war. the senti- ment in American quarters incHnes to a negative attitude with some sugges- tions that those responsible who have fled from Germany should be returned for Germany to deal with.
 The third subject, indemnites will not be presented in the conference with the amounts claimed by each govern ment. but committee will be charged with the task of assembling those amounts and also of determining the probable maximum the enemy powers are able to pay.

''The parallel between the two sets of war transactions runs in other di- rections. One more may be cited, Like the acts of Brest-Litvosk and of Bucharest the Chino-Japanese treaties impose on state, since associated with America and the allies against the cen- tra1 powers exactions wholly inconsist- ent with the free and unfettered de- velopment of China as modern inde- pendent nation.
 Further. besides striking at the root of the independence and territorial in- tegrity of China as defined and af- firmed in the great series of conventions between the great powers, the Chino Japanese treaties also violate the American doctrine of the open door in China.

TRANSPORTATION RECEIPTs

Receipts from freight, passenger, ex-
 press and other transportation during
 the year amounted to approximately s4-
 S7S, ,ooo,O00, or sS32. .00O0O0 more than in the
 previous year. Operating expenses
 Jumped to about $3g71, ,OOO,OO or about
 $l,llS'oU,eo more than in the preceding
 year.
 Preliminary reports to the railroad ad-
 ministration indicate that freight traffic feli on in December, with the virtual
 stopping of great food shipments for
 Europe and the cessation of the hauling Of other war materials, while exports
 could not be greatly reduced. This con-
 dition sent the net earnings or railway
 operating income, which has been de-
 clning steadily since the record month of last July, to probably s25 900 or
 80, ,000,00O, officials believe This may be
 compared to income or s59, 3040OO in De- cember of 1917, when earnings went to
 what was then considered a very low
 record.
 The outstanding features of the rail- way earnings situation last year were
 that freight and passenger rates were
 increased to yield about ss00, 100000 an- nually, or $450,000,000 in the six months during which they were effective, while
 wage advances added s636 oOo,ooO to op- eratng expenses. These are the latest estimates of railroad administration ac- counts. but are not considered final. PAY ROLL INCREASED The railroad administration account ants now report that in 1918 the sl,710.- e0o,00o pay roll of the year prepious was in creased 37 per cent, and that conse- ouently $2. 3i6, ,000000 was paid out last year to the 100000 railway employees. Many wage increases were effective for only the latter part of the year, and if these run through the present year. even without other additions which may come from action on pending applications for more pay, they would make s7S4 900 900 additional wages. The wage level at the end of 1918 was little more than 45 per cent higher than at the beginning of the year, when the government assumed control.
 Prospects for improvement of the earn
 ings situation this year depend mainly on whether during the readjustment period continues active. and gives a large vol ume of freight traffic to the railroads Indications point to reduction of traf- hc and consequently to reduced earnings according to the railroad administration These facts bear. only an indirect re- lation to the governments deficit esti- mated at s196, ,OO0,O00. This represents the difference between the net income re- celyed by the railroads. and the aggre- gate. calculated at little less than s9OO IO0o,O00 which the government guarantees the roads for the year.
 Neither does this take into considera- tlon the expenditures of about $SS 600 900 last year for capital purposes-to make permanent improvements and buy cars and locomotives.

 IN EARNINGS OF
 ROADS FOR 1918
Earnings During First Year Under Federal Control S250,000,000 Less Than
 for Year 1917
By Associated Press

Washington, January 23. Railroads in 1918, under gov ernment control and unusual war conditions, earned about $718,000,000, or $250,000,000 less than in 1917, $370,000,000 less than in the record year of 1916, and about the same as in 1915.
 This became apparent Today on the basis of definite reports to the inter state commerce commission of earnings of 1s5 principal railroads-those having annual operating revenues of more than H,oo0,o0O for Il months and unofficial cal culation of December earnings, which railroad administration reports indicate will be considerably smaller than those of the preceding months. Although sub Ject to slight revision, the figures af- forded the first public view of the results of railway operations last year. so far as earnings
