On the truth of the latter statement
may depend the outcome of the strike.
Naturally. the members of the other
brotherhoods sympathize with the shop
men who quit to force the roads. If
possible. to maintain the prevailing
rate of wages. But that sympathy has
been moral instead of active. How
ever. when the strike began. officers of
the brotherhoods quietly served notice
on the various railroad executives their
men must not be asked to do any work
which could even be interpreted in
spirit as of a strikebreaking character,
They were officially assured that their
wishes in this respect would be OBJ
served.
Now the brotherhoods have let IT be
known that they will not handle equip
ment that is damaged or is dangerous.
In that position they are entirely with
in their rights and will be upheld by
the railroad officials. But the ques-
ton of when a piece of equipment is
entirely safe and when it is not is one
that furnishes plenty of opportunity for
hairsplitting. An engineer can insist
that the flues of his engine leak. that
the valves need repairing. or indeed
that a dozen an one other things are
wrong and the engine foreman must de-
eide whether the claim is just or not.
There are degrees of damage. too. and
ordinary times do not interfere with
the engines that in a situation such as
exists today might be made an excuse
for refusing to handle il.
But if the responsible official de
clares that the engine is all right to
pull a train and the engineer refuses
10 run it, a crisis would be raised.
Under the rule the engineer would
be suspended for disobedience and then
his case would come squarely up to the
brotherhood. which naturally would
back him up. The result could be a
strike on n single road.
This instance is duplicated in the
case of all of the other railway unions
and it is violating no secret toast that
in the offices of the federation it is

London. Aug. 6.-On Monday Pre-
mier Poincare Of France visits Lon
don to confer with Lloyd George on
the subject of German PREPARATIONS.
The results are momentous.
Whether Earl Balfour's circular
note was addressed to France or
America its effect has been equally
important. It brings to q world issue
the touchstone of realities.
fo%reshadowed this development in
my previous dispatches. 1t N as
the result of many circumstances. the
chief one being the collapse of the
mark, which has dispersed the last
shred of illusion about the gravity of
the German position. 1t is realized
now that Germany is gathering into
the abyss where Austria lies and if
the plunge is not stopped. the rest of
Europe will follow.
Wants Clean Slate
Earl Balfour's note is in substance
a declaration for a clean slate for all
world debts. The longer the vain pur-
suit of shadows continues the deeper
the world sinks in the bog of uni
versal ruin. The only way of escape
3 to cut the losses and come down to
business.
The re-establishment of a world
atmosphere is the sole condition of re-
covery. You cannot isolate bank
ruptcy. II is spreading like a plague
over the face of Europe. That is
the profit in demanding reparations
which you cannot collect. 1t is the
policy of Shylocks. But corpses are
poor customers.
What effect will the Balfour note
have on Mondays conference? En-
gland is prepared to forego claims to
reparations if France will adopt a
moderate policy.
A great controversy is waging IN
England as to the wisdom of Balfour
proposals. 1t is recognized that it
practically leaves the whole problem
of cancellation dependent on American
action. All opinion is agreed as TO the
wisdom of cancellation. but there is a
sharp disagreement as to whether Eng
land can act alone.
On one side it is pointed out that
England's debt to America was in
Cured also by France and that to fore
go reparations, to cancel the French
debt and continue to pay interest on
the American debt is an impossible
burden TO place. Moreover. feeling is
strong that French policy has brought
Europe to the present desperate pass.

Washington, Aug. 6.-The sole
remaining hope Of the striking
sh0pmen winning their strike rests
on other railway union organiza-
tions becoming involved. As the
cards lie today, the strike Is broken
so far as the larger systems r
concerned.
Some of the smaller roads which
do not have their terminals In the
larger cities, are still In difficult
tics. But the main t%ransconti.
mental roads have men enough to
keep their cars and engines in fair
repair and are adding to their num-
bers daily.
There is a very serious dispute
regarding the competency of these
strikebreakers. Railway chiefs
who are in Washington to consult
with their representative insist
that the men are doing high class
work. Reports to the headquar-
tiers of American Federation of
Labor insist the men are incom-
petent and the equipment of the
various roads is getting in bad
ropair.

THE UNORGANIZED

From the States comes the news that thousands of men are expected to strike April first, strike which may involve two of the strongest organiza- tions of labor known, the United Mine Workers of America and the Railroad Brotherhoods. The demand is for a 20 per cent increase in wages and a six hour day with a flat increase of $1 for day alborers. The operators want to reduce wages with the promise the reduction will be passed along to the consumer.
 What will be the result if the men gain their demands? It will mean that the price of coal must be advanced, increasing the cost of production in all other industries dependent upon coal and the labor in these industries will
