L0MBARDY FASCISTS
THREATEN TROUBLE
Metal Workers Warn General
Strike VIII Be Proclaimed Mon
day Unless Negotiations Start.
Rr the AssociatAd Press


ROME, March 1.-THE striking
Fascist metal workers OF Lombardva
have agreed TO send an ultima tum
to their employers declaring that If
before Monday they are not ready TO
negotiate on the basis suggested by
the workers a general strike Of all
metal workers will be proclaimed.
with the exception of those in the
Emilia region, who were not repre-
sented at todays meeting
A special commission was appoint
ed to point out to the government
the gravity of the situation. which
is growing more serious owing 10
the inclination of the shipyard work
ers to join the movement. Seven
thousand of these workers already
have gone on strike at Triest while
there is some unrest at the Port OF
Genoa.
1t is believed that the anti Fascist
metal workers will decide to take
the same action as did the Fascist
workers today. A curious feature of
the strike is the solidarity between
the Fascist and anti-Fascist unions.
The latter body contains radical ele-
ments, whose tendencies border on
the red"
Notwithstanding the collaboration
of these two branches of labor. the
Fascist party is openly supporting
the strikers. as evidenced by an Of
fetal communique from Fascist head
quarters and by a dispatch to the
Cremona Nueva, presumably written
by Deputy Farinacci, secretary of
the Fascist party. This dispatch says
that the strike no longer is purely
economic, but has entered a delicate
and complex political phase.

contract for 100000 bushels of oyster
shells TO transfer oysters from one
location to another in the bay, have
been authorized by Gov. Ritchie fol-
lowing conference this week with
State Conservation Commissioner

Mr.. Earle found recently that he
could secure only 1000 bushels Of
shells within the State. The other

Oysters on bars in Chesapeake Bay
areas known. as Parker Moore and
Hog Island will be spread over an
area, including Hog Island, of more
than 500 acres, according to Mr.. Earle.
This will be done, Mr.. Earle ex-
plained. because oysters on bars in
the Hog Island territory are so thick
that they impede their own growth.
When the oysters are transplanted
they will be distributed in the pro-
portion OF ESQ bushels to the acre
we also shall start the work of
transplanting oysters from Hodges
Bar to Hog Island" he said. "A re-
cent investigation showed that about
SO per cent of the oysters on Hodges
Bar still are alive. the rest having
been killed by the inundation of this
area with fresh water from the floods
of last year.
These operations may result in the
production OF 250.000 bushels of oys-
ters-on the Hog Island area for mar

GALL|NGER'S HELP
TO POOR IS VALUED
Municipal Hospital Handles
Many More Than Police
Commitments.

The popular conception of Gallinger
Hospital as a hospital for police cases
or, in other words, the Bellevue of
Washington, where patients with
visions of pink elephants cavorting
about on a lavender sea, go to get the
whims ironed out of them, is a mis-
conception.
GaIlinger Hospital. Washington's
municipal hospital, should be regard
ed by residents as a municipal insti-
tuition, in which medical and surgical
assistance to the poor of the city Is a
primary object, according to DR..
James A. Cannon chief of the surgical
staff of the hospital.
He views the institution not only as
an opportunity for mes prominent
in the medical profession in this city
to do worthwhile free work, but also
as one of the finest possible training
schools for young doctors and for
older ones who desire to keep in the
forefront of professional develop
ments.
Physicians on Visit.
These views were outlined by DR..
Cannon as he guided a group OF visit
ing physicians through the hospital,
In connection with the annual con-
vention of the American Congress on
Internal Medicine. which concluded It's
sessions yesterday.
Although limited in facilities for
treatment of free cases and with
some wards housed in buildings that
are not modern, the technique OF
treatment at Gallinger is said to en-
body the finest methods known to
medical science. Sixty-fve OF the
most prominent physicians and sur
geonS of the city are on the visiting
staff, are available day or night, and
their services are free.
Gallinger however, is but one of
the hospitals in Washington giving
free medical service, for applicants
for free treatment are distributed by
the Board of Charities through other
