BY AMERICAN CAPT AIMS.

London, April ga gloomy picture
of the British industrial situation is
presented in the American Chamber
of Commences summary of business
and economic conditions for March.
After some months of peace, severe
industrial strife is again being exper-
fenced. The question whether 600,-
900 skilled engineers will be forced
into idleness hangs on negotiations
between the employers and the unions,
brought about by the Intervention of
Prime Minister Lloyd George.
More than million persons will be
without jobs unless settlement is
speedily reached, the report points
out The engineering dispute is con-
cerned with the question of overtime,
while the shipbuilding workers are
disaffected due to bonus reduction

Labor Leader L
Peeved Because
Men Must Labor
(By Associated Press,

Chicago, April 6.-Henry Ford,
Detroit automobile manufacturer
was declared responsible for advanc-
ing specialization in factories and ac-
cused of "conferring a curse on his
workers" before the railroad labor
board yesterday in the wage hearing
at which 204 railroads are seeking a
10 per cent wage reduction.
Edward J. Evans, vice president of
the International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers, attacked the rail
roads which, he said, were tending
toward too great specialization in
shop work.
Henry Ford may have conferred a
blessing on many people, those who
own automobiles, but he conferred a
curse on his workers. They sit at
their benches, half dead, doing their
bits of work mechanically over and
over" the union leader declared.
High specialization was asserted
by Mr.. Evans to be the "worst crime
against humanity" The railroads,
in seeking sliding scale of rates, ac-
cording to the work done by different
shopmen, We're tending more and
more toward specialization, he said

Mules Glad Of Vacation.

Wilkesbarre, Pa.s April Gone
hundred and fifty-five thousand idle
mine workers in the anthracite fields
of Pennsylvania are not alone in en-
joying the holiday brought about by
the suspension order. The mine
mules, many of which had not seer
daylight for years, also are enjoy
ing it. And, if the capers they cut
about their enclosures are to be TAX
en- as reflections of thiers feelings,
they are even more joyful than the
men.
Certainly these humble beasts of
burden are not worrying about the
probable length of the suspension,
for everything has been done for
their comfort. Thousands of them
were brought from the dark levels
in boarded enclosures. To watch
them romping about, kicking and Bit
ing at each other good-naturedly,
was evidence enough that they well
coined the chance again to get into
the sunshine and air, free from coal
gases. But, there was even stronger
evidence that the mules disliked their
gloomy subterranean existence when
an effort was madeeto lead or drive
them toward a mine opening; inva-

Various phases of the staying here
of Lieutenant Colonel Paul Ward
Beck, assistant commandant of Post
field, Forot Sill, Okla, early Tues
day morning in the home of Jean P.
Day, ooil man and prominent attor-
Iney, were being duplicated today by
county officials.
County Attorney Poorest Hughes
declared he was investigating pos
sible "hidden angles" of the trag-
|edy.
X-ray photographs definitely set
tied the question as to whether Colo
mel Beck was shot. Shattered frag-
ments of bullet were disclosed in
the head of the army officer. The
bullet appeared to have entered near
the top of the head, above the right
ear. 1t ranged down and forward.
Day has declared he struck Colonel
Beck over the head with the revolv-
er he obtained after he returned
home and found the aviator strug-

ject of the association was "to gel

ports.
The effect on unemployment re-
turns will be serious. Registered un-
employed persons on March 20, num-
bered 1,762,076, which figure, al
though large, was a reduction of 172,-
900 from that of 10 weeks before.
Lancashire cotton manufacturers
have given notice of a seventy five
percent reduction in the standard
price list, roughly six shillings a
pound, but it is not expected such a
large reduction will be made.
The February foreign trade re-
turns, published in March were not
encouraging as compared with Janu-
ary, both imports and exports sub
stantially declined. Exports dropped
off nearly five million pounds ster-
ling and imports more than 1000, ,O0O
pounds sterling, some of the decrease
being due to the short month.
A feature of the returns was that
apart from the so-called invisible ex-
ports, an actual favorable trade bal.
ance of 224.000 pounds sterling, was
shown for the first time in century
In 1918 the adverse trade balance
amounted to $4,000. 900 pounds ster.
ling. and in 1920 to s74, ,0o0. 600 pounds
sterling.
The February balance was not due
however. to increased exports, bui
10 decreased imports.

Charleston, w. Va, April 6-The
strike situation in southern West ir-
ginia is becoming gradually clear, the
claims of operators and miners being
less conflicting. The former, howev-
er, maintain that their daily tonnage
is being held while the union chiefs
report steady accession to their ranks
from among tie unorganized workers.
One region where claims of opera
tors and miners are at considerable
variance is the New River territory,
the former contending that So mines
continued to be operated yesterday
while union officials declared that the
mines were practically closed down."
The Winding Gulf field is being or
ganized for the first time, according
to Secretary Gatherum of district
number 80. Two mines were opened
in the Kanawaha field yesterday,
making total of 18 operating, an
official of the operators association
stated. Several mines in the Monon-
gala district failed to operate and no
coal was loaded in the southern part
of the county, union leaders reported.
President C. Frank Kenney Of dis
trict II Of the union, in a statement
given out last night declared that the
union miners ar standing by the or
ganization firmly while many nom
union men, finding themselves unable
to ear a living wage under the oper-
ators' present terms, are coming over
to the union.
Little activity was reported from
the Fairmont region. Organizers
are working among the non-union
workers and few ears of coal are be-
ing loaded.
Two suspects held in connection
with the bombing Of a miners house
at Kilsythe Tuesday night were freed
by state police after an investigation.
Union officials announced that they
"would not stand for" terrorism and
offered the unions services in running
down the bombers.

afternoon to meet at Palatka as soon
as Secretary Hart can notify civic
organizations in the various counties
to select a vice president who will

receive replies.
The meeting was largely attended,
Ocala having the largest delegation
of any one city. Forty-one cars mo-
tored from the Marion county capi-
tai to Orlando, but found little that
they could gain by numbers.
Secretary Hart, Of the Palatka
Chamber of Commerce, was asked to
continue serving as secretary until
the board of directors meets and can
select his successor. Mr.. Hart had
previously declined to become per-
manent secretary.
The constitution and bylaws were
submitted and adopted, subject to
amendments as to financing the or
ganization. This will be left up to
the board of directors. Just when
the meeting will be held in Palatka
depends on the celerity with which
the various counties respond to the
request to name their vice presidents,
who will also head the local organi-
zation in each county.

De Valera's Regiment Is
Said to Have Left
Extremists
MAY HAVE CONFERENCE
Feeling Of Uneasiness
Over Increasing Num-
of Grimes
cBy Associatesi Press,

| Dublin, April ~ One hundred
young men from Tralee are proceed
ing to Dublin to join the free state
army were intercepted today at NAL
low by strong party of Republicans.
Clash occurred in which reported one
free state recruit was wounded. Free
state men were arrested and taken
to barracks at Duttevant.
London, April 6--Indications that
the situation in Ireland is becoming
dangerous in consequence of growing
antagonism of the Republicans to-
ward the supporters Of the Free State
are given in newspaper dispatches.
Hostile demonstrations by the rev.
olting section of the Irish Republican
army against the I. R. A. regulars
have been reported with increasing
frequency in the last few days. These
are often accompanied by shooting
and the seizure of free state proper
ty, but there have been no serious
casualties, nor clashes on any con-
siderable scale.
The supposition in some quarters is
that the seeding members of the
army are trying to provoke retaliation
If SO, they have thus far failed, al
though the succession of aggTavating
incidents has created dangerous ten
sion.
Information Is Meager.
Dublin seems little better informed
on these occurrences than London and
that conflict there, as here. It is stat
ed on one hand that the provisional
free state government is very. anx-
ious concerning the situation, which
it is said, may result in cancelling
arrangements for the elections be-
cause Of the fear that they will be so
influenced by the Republican terror
ism that the verdict will be worthless
as an expression of real public opin-
ion. &
On the other hand it is declared that
the recent behavior of the Republican
troops has caused such a rallying of
the population to the support Of the
government that gunmen will be un-
likely to control the elections. The
Westminster Gazette, representing
this view, says it learns that regi-
ment known as "De Valera's own"
has deserted the extremists, pleading
its allegiance to the provisional gov
ernments.
Approaching Revolution.
An instance Of the variance in re
ports was offered in today's London
reports where it was alternativeIy
stated that the situation was ap-
preaching revolution and that a con-
ference of conciliation between the
De Valera and Free State parties was
being arranged.
The whole position is admittedly OBJ
scure, even in Dublin, but the various
reports repeatedly refer to the break
ing up of Michael Collins meeting in
Castle Bar on Sunday as Indicative
of its seriousness.
The Times Dublin correspondent
says messages from the west Indicate
that the trouble is increasing in the
more remote districts and that there
is growing feeling of insecurity st
increasing number of crimes. Cona-
munication with some parts Of the
western counties Is difficult owink
to the frequent cutting Of teIsersph
wires.
