HIRE STRIKE
PROMOTERS,
SAYS MANLY

kilograms from New York an
nounce that members of the New
York Tow Boat Exchange, against
whom the haroor strike has been di-
rected, demand thst Basil M. Manly,
of the Federal War Labor Board,
shall not take part in the hearings
which begin today upon which def
mite settlement Of the strike depends.
The basis of objection to Mr..
Manly is an address delivered at the
Reconstruction Congress of the Ma
tionaI Popular Government League
in Washington last week in which he
made the startling charges that the
New York strike was organized by
the employers and not by the en-
ployed, and that q famous firm of de-
tectives7 was employed to work up
discontent among the laborers.
This form of Bolshevism, on the
part Of employers, Mr.. Manly stated,
was widespread and that there was
concerted effort to arouse discontent
and troubles in the ranks of labor.
ThSfoilowing is a stenographic re-
port of Mr.. ManIy's statements:

about the general underlying labor
conditions in the United States at the

NAVY YARD MEN
ASKHOUSES BUILT

The House Public Buildings Com
r1ittee, which had a further hearing
today on the question of what t. do
with Government housing projects,
was strongly urged by representa-
tives of employees of the Washington
Navy Yard to complete the housing
in the vicinity of the navy yard.
1t was developed that the Govern
ment has planned for 257 houses in
the southeastern part of the city near
the navy yard, between Seventeenth
and Nineteenth streets, which em-
ployes of the yard hope to see nm
ished in order that Government work
ers may have an opportunity to buy
these homes on reasonable terms.
John G. Donnelly and Edward c.
McGrugor spoke for the Navy Yard
employees. They urged that the Gov
ernlnent could save money and get
out OF the project what it had put
into il by finishing the houses and
then selling them to employees on
reasonable terms. It was pointed out
that one Of the benefits of this policy
would be to keep the Government
supplied with good machinIsts for
Navy Yard service
Questions asked by members of the
committee indicated a friendly disno-
sition toward the completion Of the
housing:

PARIS, Jan. 3.-Discussions of Or

second meeting of the Inter-Allied
Superior Council this afternoon.

that it must he given preference over
all other business at the peace con-
ference. There is still some disagree
ment regarding details, but these were
expected to be smoothed out quickly
in the conference Of the associated
powers which were resumed today.
France Not Satisfied.
Wilson's plan, as a whole. Is unsat-
isfactory to the French, because they
believe 1t does not provide sufficient
economic penalties for Germany. They
say his proposd probationary inclu-
sion OF Germany would permit that
country to start up it's undamaged
industries in competition with the
French and Belgians, whose indus
trial plants were wrecked by the Ger
mans themselves.
Senator Bourgeois, who will head
the French section of the interallied
commission to draw up plans for the
league-lf the conference appoints
such a body-made plain in a recent
interview that he agrees with Glenn
enceau on this point. He favors ex-
cluding the central powers until they
fulfill the privisions they must sign
at the peace conference.

Clemenceau is understood to favor
a league composed OF the victorious
nations. Opposition to this plan CEN

result in another war. French dele

most unique things about it is
that it has no villain.
All the characters are real hui
man beings, graphing with hui
man situations, and the sympathy
Of the audience goes out to every
one Of them, in spit Of their mis-
takes and rash actions. The pic
ture deals with the most vital of
modern problems raised by the
war, which are now engaging
public attention.
Edgar Selmyn, author Of many
Broadway successes wrote the
story. and the picture was per-
sonally directed by Mr.. DeMille
Jeanne Macpherson wrote the
scenario.
Those who have seen it, claim
that it is by far, the finest piece
of work Mr.. DeMille has yet Civ
en- to the screen, from every
standpoint theme, story. drama
tic suspense, acting and produc-
ton. This is the most conclusive
praise that can be given to a pic
ture, for everyone who has seen
