General Strike Committee Calls
Off Sympathetic WaIkout
at Winnipeg.
IN EFFECT FORTY DAYS
Negotiations Between Police Commits.
sion and Members of Old Force
May Result in Reinstatement
of the Discharged Men.

Winnipeg, Man., June 26.-The
general sympathetic strike which
has been in progress here since
May IS has been called off.
Men out have been told to re-
turn to work Thursday morning,
June 26, at II o'clock.
This was the decision arrived at
by the general strike committee.
Winnipeg, June ga new strike
publication, the Western Star, was
placed on the street few hours after
the offices of the Western Labor News
had been raided by Northwest Mount
ed Police.
j. S. Woodwork of Vancouver, a
former preacher, editor of the News,
was arrested on a charge of sedition,
supposedly in connection with articles
published dealing with last Saturday s
riot. Copy and type were confiscate1
by the police.
The Star prints a sharp criticism OF
the action of the authorities in clos
ing down the labor organ and says
that, "as fast as the authorities close
one channel of truth another will
open" The new publication consists
OF one sheet and does not carry the
name OF the editor or place of publ
cation.
Negotiations between the police
commission and members of the old
force are continuing. The discharged
policemen have offered to separate
from the labor council and acknowl
edge only the authority of the police
commission. Alderman j. X. Sparl
ing, chairman of the committee said
that the only points at issue were the
signing of the pledge not to join sym
pathetic strikes and clear under
standing that certain men would not
be taken back under any circum
stances.
Thirty or more street cars were run
ming and service Is expected to be
normal in a few days. Strikers are
returning to work individually in in
creasing numbers. Metal shops report
many additions to their forces.
1t is estimated that less than 5000,
of the $4,000 men who walked out MAJ
Is remain idle.

Lawmaker Also Declares That Gov.

oanda of Anarchy and Revo-
luton in United States.

New York, June Ex-senator Poin-
dexter, Republican, Washington, told
the Fifteenth District Republican club
that ''the mission of the Republican
party in the immediate future is to
save the republic from the process of
national disintegration in progress
during the present administration"
denouncing the Democrats vacillation
and weakness in dealing with Mexico.
Senator Poindexter said the Repub-
lican party should elect a president
who would fulfill the responsibilities
the nation had assumed in Mexico,
'and reassert American honor and
self-respect, so that our citizens. law
fully in that country, would not be
forced to ransom their lives with
money"
Deprecates British Suggestion.
"The suggestion now made in some
quarters" he continued, that Great
Britain should be invited to restore
order in Mexico should be denounced
as false to our fundamental policies,
and Republican congress should re-
store order in Mexico and adjust on
correct principles its International OBJ
legations
Senator Poindexter advocated re-
peal of "the act of the Democratic
congress and President in interna-
tionalizing the Panama canal" repudi-
alton of the promise OF the Demo-
cratic administration to haul down the
American flag in the Philippine IL.
lands" repeal of the extraordinary
powers vested in the President dur
ing the emergency. and speedy reduc-
tion of war taxes through elimination
of waste and inefficiency, and the
framing of tariff bill to protect in
dustry and maintain wages.
Speaking of radical agitators, he
said it should be the first care of a
Republican administration to stamp
out propaganda of anarchy and revo-
luton.
Would Gust Radicals.
~The alien advocates of enforced
communism and confiscation," he said
should be returned at once to the
country from whence they came, and
their aiders and abettors, in this coun
try and the officials of the government
of high and low degree, who have en-
couraged Bolshevik activities should
be exposed and punished.
"The new doctrine of international
ism advocated alike by the kaiser and
his Socialist followers, and by the an
archists and Bolshevists of Russia
and America, should be combated as
fatal to our institutions. The effort
OF the lnternationalists to "join oul
! fortunes with the fortunes of meI
everywhere and to form United
States OF the World, should be op
posed as inconsistent with American
independence, and menace to lib
erty."
