THIRTEEN MILLION
PARTICIPATED IN
GERMAN STRIKES

Berlin.-Thirteen million work
ers participated in strike move
ments in Germany during the last
II months, 100000 of them mem
bers of Socialist labor unions. The
strikers include 100000 women.
Strikes and threats of strikes
numbering $4,000 affected $4,000
businesses. Except in 247 cases
the strikes were tor higher wages
and shorter hours.
These movements resulted in d
loss OF 12,716,093 work days and
cost labor 9S,000,000 marks a week
during the periods of idleness.
The workers secured weekly in
creases of wages amounting to
608,159,85S marks equivalent to
about 27,0O0,000) an average week
ly increase of 50 marks and 30
pfennigs per workman. Double
pay for overtime was also secured
Employers in almost every strike
promptly agreed to arbitration and
nearly all were settled with no
other damage than loss of time and
temporary suspension of business.
Demand for higher wages brought
about by the increased cost of liv-
ing is considered an unpleasant ne
cessity by the labor unions. A
statement recently from union Of
fees said:
''Incessant demands for more pay
are regrettable from the work
mans. standpoint Unfortunately
more wages are necessary. There
seems to be a rather hopeless race
between wages and prices, in which
prices SO far have been leading"
The statement added that the
wage and labor troubles were only
another evidence of the "un-
healthy" condition of the German
state.

HOLDING DRESS
REHEARSAL OF
PASSION PLAY
Postwar Revival Plans Progress
ing at Oberammergau-55,00O>
Applications for Seats.

Oberammergau. Bavaria--tBy the
Associated Press.) = Preparations
for the first postwar revival of the
Passion Play have progressed sufii-
GENTLY to enable the committee OF
elders to announce that the final
dress rehearsal will be held May 3.
The first regular performances
will be given on May IA.
Thirty-five thousand applicatioE1
for seats and sleeping accommoda-
tions already have been received
from abroad, and while the local
management has not yet received
indications as to the extent to
which Germans will patronize the
productions of the play, it assumes
that German attendance will more
than quadruple the foreign patron
age.
Anticipating an unusual influx of
visitors in July and August, the
management has decided to give
Wednesday performances during
these months.
Economic conditions have oblig-
ed the village elders considerably
to amplify their directing staff, not
so much as concerns the produc-
ton of the play as to solve the
problem of accommodating thou
sands of visitors for whom the
comforts and conveniences of
travel before the war are now not
available
The conditions under which the
play will be revived this year have
shocked the rural simplicity of
these peasant play producers and,
while determined to prevent the
sacred enterprise from becoming
basely cOmmercialized, they are
now beginning to realize that the
wars aftermath has produced an
economic environment with which
they are compelled to reckon.
Rejects Tax.
The municipality of Oberammer- !
yau has preemptorily rejected ,,
proposition that it levy a tax on !
foreign visitors which, it declares, |
would be out of harmony with the |
origin and traditions of the play
and also would conflict with the !
purpose of the present revival |
which is regarded as one way of +
achieving reconciliation between |
Germany and the other nations. !
The town fathers, however, an
lounce that they have been forced |
10 assume a considerable initial !
expense in preparing for the pro-
1uctlon, recOnstructing the theatre
which will seat 1890 spectators
md in providing costumes.
