TEXTILE
STRIKES LOOMING
Dye Workers Threaten
WalkOut in June

LONDON, May More tn an
$500 British dye-workers will strike
in mid-June unless they are granted
wage increase, according to de-
cision reached yesterday.
The situation in the textile in
dustry became more critical when
the Master Cotton Spinners Associa-
ton decided to recommend a twenty
five per cent wage cut. Before taking
definite, action, however, mill owners
in various textile districts will con-
fer. Workers are expected to fight
the proposed wage cut.
Unemployment in the coal fields
continues to be widespread. The
miners of South Wales have been
particularly hard hit. The shipping in
dustry is also hard hit and thousands
of dock workers remain unemployed.

This city has recently passed an or

TO INVESTIGATE
power EALKNGS

PROVIDENCE, R. l., May 7 (FP)
Viewpoints union electrical workers
have aroused Rhode Island labor to
power trust exactions. Through a
series of resolutions electricians have
started a demand which may cause
the governor to name a commission
to investigate high charges by private
light and power companies.
The Newport Electric Corporation
charge Of 1914 cents kilowatt hour
for juice precipitated labor's demand
for investigation and survey. Pri-
vately owned plant charges average
'515 cents, Newport electricians have
computed, while public plants aver
age 212 cents.
Southern Massachusetts cities also
suffer from high electric rates. Two
super-power corporations, the New
England Power and the Eastern IT'LL
tiles Assn. are angling for the Fall
River and New Bedford companies.
High rates have inflated stock values
of these companies and present own
ers hope to clean up millions when
they sell out to the combine.

points to his ultimate veto.
In the event of the bills failure

Role of U. S.

WASHINGTON, May T. = War by
the Kuomintang forces with the Jap
anese troops in Shantung may finally
involve the forces Of the United States
in that region.
At Tientsin are 1900 American
marines, with TAI soldiers, while at
Picking there is an American legation
guard of about 500 men. Destroyers
and submarines are on hand at the
ports, and more are being sent from
the south China coast.
One important factor in the situa-
ton is that Chang Kai Shek, COM
mander-in-chief of the Kuomintang
troops has repudiated the worker and
peasant program with which the
movement began, and has massaerec
all radicals on whom he could lay

the canadian Pacific railways to re-
luce the rate on Alberta coal to On
tario from $12.70 to $6.75 ton. This
will afford traffic during the dull
period in freight business. The gov
9rnment will reimburse the roads for
losses sustained under the new rate.
The freight reduction will enable
Alberta producers to sell coal any
where in Ontario at prices 50 to So a
ton under Pennsylvania anthracite.
The best Alberta coal is a semi
anthracite.
The British attack on the Canadian
market is a cooperative effort by coal
owners of Scotland and South Wales
They plan to screen, wash and grade
their product in accordance with
American standards. Shipowners and
dock authorities are cooperating to-
ward low transportation costs. The
all-water route from British mines
to Canadian cities via the St. Law
renee will render the cost of carrying
coal about half that from mines in
the United States.
