SIGNS Of D|SCORD IN
GERMANS ASSEMBLY
Leaders Steam Roller" Tao
tics Rouses Ire of Other Par
ties; Coalition Regarded I'm
stable; Resembles Reichstag.
BY FRANK J. TAYLOR.

Weimar, Germany, Feb THE
second session of the national assem-
bly, today began to develop evidences
of lack of harmony. Aside from po-
litical disputes there was a strong
feeling in all parties against the
leaders steam roller" tactics. The
strong coalition formed has given the
proceedings much the same cut and
dried atmosphere that obtained in the
old reichstag.
The coalition, which at present in
cludes the Democrats, Catholics and
Majority Socialists, Is believed by
many to be unstable. The Socialists
demand general Specialization of all
Industries as a part of the national
constitution. The Democrats and
Catholics consider partial Socializa-
tion as the only means of insuring
the payment of Germany's debts and
re- esta blishment of her credit. Also
they want Socialization as a political
program and not fundamentally
through the constitution. Reconcilia
ton of these contrary views is certain
to be difficult.

BRITISH STRIKE
MENACE EASED
AS men Agree
FOR ARM|ST|CE
Subway WaIkout Called off,
Electrical Workers Resume
Posts; Unions to Decide
Final Action Sunday.

London, Feb. s-An armistice ap-
parently has been effected today in
the industrial war being waged in
Great Britain.
While the subway strike was called
off and all electrical workers were
back at their posts announcement was
made that a mass-meeting of trades
unions would be held tomorrow to de-
eide whether there shall be a nation
wide general strike.
Rival tube unions reached an agree
ment with government representa-
tres shortly before dawn today. A
settlement was thought to have been
made Thursday night but the agree
ment was repudiated by some of the
factions of the subway organizations
necessitating a new conference last
night.
TRANSPORT RELIEVED.
This resulted in the tube workers
deciding to return to work today en-
abling thousands of other workers WHO
had been forced to sleep in their
places of business or take their chance
with makeshift transportation or walk
to resume their normal methods of
travel. One of the factors resulting
ers' demands was the threat of Alfred
Smith, representing the motor bus
drivers, to call them out il the gov
ernment persisted in running army
motor lorries for passenger service.
The return to work of the electri-
cal workers relieved a tense situation
resulting from the governments
threat to imprison any who threaten
ed with the citys poker or light SER
vice.
WALTERS STILL OUT.
The walters were still on strike,
however, affecting all of the first
class hotels, restaurants and clubs in
London. The situation was said to be
nearing a settlement. The employers
have offered the strikers a AZ hour
week, agreeing to concede a A hour
as soon as peace is signed. The Even
ing Star, however. published Belfast
dispatch stating that warrants have
been signed authorizing arrest of
most of the strike leaders. The situa-
tion in the Glasgow shipbuilding
strike was said to be unchanged.

LIMITED ARMAMENT.

Limited armament for all member
nations has been approved, Larnaude
said. Land and sea forces will be
controlled by the league, except in the
case of domestic matters.
Disputing nations will be summoned
before the league tribunal. In the
event a nation refuses to abide by the
judiciary's ruling and ignores all other
attempts at effecting a settlement, it
is planned to allow the disputants to
fight. Apparently, the opinion is held
that by the time the judiciary hands
down it's findings sufficient airing will
have been given the trouble by the
newspapers so that public opinion and
other moral weights inevitably will
prevent actual war.
