The press of Germany gives much
space to a visit of Hugo SHINES to
England. According to reports, he
was called there by Lloyd George,
tho for what purpose is not known.
Herr SHINES is the greatest industri-
al leader of Germany and controls
the iron business, with interests in
many more. He was a supporter Of
the war in it's earlier stages, but
changed when he found that he had
been deceived. He has risen to his
present position from small begin
nings by thrift, energy and business
ability. He ia said to be very simple

"May I, after ten years of hard

was too low. After trying time and
again, he pushed pebble into the
Jug and found that the water rose a
BIT but still it was not high enough.
Then in went another pebble, and an
other, and another, until the water
was almost up to the top of the jug
and the fox could drink until his
thirst was quenched. I am afraid
that am little in the predicament
of the fox. When I came to Berea it

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Aug. .. -
Following a series of conferences held
Wednesday between officials of the Rolls
Royce company and the foremen of the
plant, who were brought to this country
from England by the company. about 81
of the foremen and craftsmen returned
To work yesterday noon. None of the
other workers at the local factory re-
turned yesterday. however. and it is I'M
derstood that the main part of the plant
is TO remain closed until September e.
1t is not knowii whether or not the
return of these, men. Will hasten the Qpen7
ing of the factory, as no statement could
be secured from the local officials of the
company last evening.
1t Is understood that the return of
the men yesterday followed Il protest
on the part of the British foremen after
the latest shutdown of the plant last
week. These men are said to have asked
to be given work in spite of the shut
down. as they stated that they had been
guaranteed work when brought over to
this country. and that British law re-
quired that they get it.
