Their Sympathetic Strike and That
Of Transport Men Postponed
New Proposals Up-Hopeful
Feeling Prevails.

LONDON-The threatened eympa-
thetic strikes of the railway men and
transport workers in support of the
striking coal miners, which would
have forced virtually all the indus
tries of Great Britain to shut down,
have been postponed, pending re-
newed negotiations between the gov
eminent and the miners. These will
start Immediately when Premier
Lloyd George meets representatives
of the miners executive committee
in an attempt to arrive at basis
of settlement. 'lvo e.P5s 9g sr,~ H11s-
This decision was reached after a
day of conference, the premier hav.
ing sent letter to Frank Hodges
of the miners union suggesting the
meeting. Thereupon the railway men
at the request of the miners, sus
pended action in order that, in the
words of an official statement issued
by j. H. Thomas, general secretary OF
the national union of railway men
''every hope of peace might be explor
ed without difficulty being added by a
railway strike"
Mr.. Thomas, in announcing the sus
pension of the strike notices pending
negotiations between miners and the
government, said the miners hat
given another indication of theil
eagerness for peace, and that it was
for every one to help toward an hon
orable settlement.
Settlement Expected Soon.
Hope seemed to prevail that there
would be settlement of the Goa
strike as result of the renewal o.
the direct negotiations between th'
miners and the government.

issued twenty billions in bonds Already it has di-
gested five billions. That is the status of the situa-
ton today
Fifteen billions of bonds are in the hands

And. while the Republican showed a decline
Of approximately one-third in four years, the Demo

extent.
In King County there were more than 1870, 600
registered and there only AT 600 votes
