Nebraska produced eight sets of
triplets in 1920. according to the re
pert of the state division of vital sta

to as one of the good results of Gov
ernor McKelvie's code bill. In the

to present to the world one set of
triplets. In the matter of production

charged with the increase in the
number of deaths. The increase to

Damage Already Done by Flood
ing Can Never Be
Repaired
London, April r. King George to
day callwl the army reserves and
velum eers to active service in the
threatened industrial revolution.
The king's action was caused by
the refusal of striking coal miners to
renew negotiations with mine owners
and the? decision of the "triple alli
ance" to meet today to determine
plans for a general strike.
Under the emergency act now in
effect all military forces can lie used
in the distribution and guarding and
production of food and the keeping of
the peace.
London. April 8. The triple alli
ance has decided to strike. Announce
ment to that effect was made short
ly after noon today by J. II. Thomas,
head of the railway workers.
Unless an elevent h-hour develop
ment prevents execution of the deci
sion, 5,000.000 workers will be idle in
the united kingdom befor-1 the week
is over.
The triple alliance strike will lie
called Tuesday unless the government
reopens negotiations in the meantime.
J. H. Thomas announced late this
afternoon.
The king's call for army and navai
reserves include their service.
While the alliance strike call in:.y
he issued before the day is over, it
i-i no; expected to become fully oper
ative until midnight Sunday.
The miners refused the premier's
invitation because Lloyd George had
stipulated as a condition for the con
ference that the safety of the mines
be discussed and decided before any
other issues would be considered.
That was the same stumbling block
that prevented the materialization
of yesterday s peace moves.
The la t door o peace was definite
ly closed when the secretary to Pre
mier Lloyd George announced at
12:40 p. m. that the miners have re
fused the premier's latest invitation
to meet him and the owners.
The triple alliance strike is expect
ed to he foiria'.iy called when the ex
ecutive eommittcp of the alliance
meet - at Unity hall this afternoon.
The only ray of hope came in the
fovm cf an invitation from Premier
Llyd George to the miners and mine
owners to meet him again in confer
ence. He asked representatives of
both sides to see him at the board of
tra!e. In extending the invitation,
the Dreraier completely reversed his
Ttand of yesterday when he declared
resumption of negotiations was utter
ly impossible because of the miners'
refus.il to guarantee the continuance
cf pumping at tiie mines. So grave
is the menace which confronts the
kingdom that I.lcyd George is be
lieved to have put aside every other
consideration in a last attempt to
avert disaster.
Riots and sabotage continue in the
strike-paralyzed coal fi:lds. Mine af
ter mine is being flooded. Even if
the strike wc:e to be called off today
it would takf many months to get
production back to anywhere near
normal. Tin- damage already done
is irrepairable.
Other great industries have begun
to suffer. From Derbyshire came
word today that the hie Stavely iron
works have h:'d t be shut down ow
ing to a lack of coal. Three thou
sand workers were rendered jobbless
ever night.
The Stantcn Iron works also have
been closed. The same thing is be
ing duplicated over and over in all
parts of the kingdom.
In the Fifeshire eoal fields, among
the richest in Scotland, floods have
swept the roads and many collieries
are under water. New shafts will
have to be constructed at thos? mines
before another ton of coal can be pro
duceed. The Journal staff correspondent
xas the hrst to in!rm the board of
trade of Thomas' announcement that
iiie alliance has decided upon a strike.
"Well, it has come." was all an of
ficial would say. His attitude indi

It has been agreed
that the strike will be controlled by
a joint committee of the three bod
ies miners, rail men and transport
workers and the decisive meeting of
the alliance will occur this after
noon." At 2:30 p. m. it was officially an
nounced by the transport workers'
executive committee that it had been
empowered to call a strike at will.
Delegates immediately went to thir
respective homes to prepare every
thing for the strike call, which is ex
pected to follow the triple alliance
meeting this afternoon.
The transport workers declared the
strike order will become operative
"when the miners give the word for
a s mpathetic strike." This put a
new aspect, on the situation, placing
the "big stick" of the final decision
in t he hands of the miners rather
than of the triple alliance executives.
It is now up to the miner3 to say
whether they want the alliance to go
out. Their "yes" will he promptly
followed by a general strike call..

the request cf the borough mayors

BERLIN MAKES NEW
ATTEMPT FOR AID
French Newspaper Says Bergmar.n is
Trying to Confer With Colonel
Eoyden, U. S. A.
Paris. April S. Germany has be
gun a new attempt to obtain Ameri
can intervention in the reparations
issue, acocrding to Pertinax, recog
nized as the best informed French
commentator on foreign affairs.
Herr Eergmann, chief German ne
gotiator on the subject of repara
tions, according to Pertinax, is trying
to confer with Colonel Boyden. I'. S.
A., who recently withdrew from the
reparations commission on orders
from Washington, but who is keeping
in touch with the activities of that
boyd.
Colonel Boyden has been in th-
Balkans for the last ten days and hi-" j
assistants here said they did not j
1 T-" 1 1 - i - i t Vi i 1 r P;rt in 'j v 'c rt rrv n ic
any foundation in fact. Herrmann
has been in Berlin more than a week,
and his assistants here declared
themselves equally ignorant of any
new German proposals.
Pertinax in his article declares that
France is willing to listen to Amer
ica and England is glad to conclude
an amicable accord, but that she will
not yield on the reparations ques
tion. "We are resolved." he adds, "to
proceed with the military occupation
of the Ruhr district, if Germany re
fuses to pay. Our leaders are now
making economic and military prep
arations which will assure the enter
prise. I prefer net to reveal any
secrets, but the decisive hour is about
to arrive."
The crisis in the preparations ques
tion probably will be reached a week
from today when the commission
houses to complete its work and hard
the Germans the total bill on the bas
is of the provisions of the Vcrsaill"c
treaty. Upon formal notice from
Berlin that Germany rejects this bill
the allies will then prepare through
enversations to "lay a heavy hand
upi-in Germany's neck." as Premier
Briand put it during the senate de
bate the ether day.
The French are anxious to move
into the Ruhr district as soon as pos
sible after May 1. Despite rumors
of a possible earlier action by the
I'rench, coupled with the departure
r.ext week of French newspaper cor-resp-mdents
to the Rhine, it is un
likely that France will act before
May 1. aj she is mindful of the ef
fect such action would have upon
the allies and Anieri'-a.
Admiral Gegony urges that in ad
dition to occpuying the Ruhr dis
trict the allies put themselves in
"striking" distance of Berlin.
He suggests that 15.000 men oc
cupy t lie stand of ilugenen and that
the allies also take Stralsund which
is only some 120 miles from Berlin.
He further advises the seizure of the
Kiel canal l:y a French division, a
British brigade an.l a Belgian regi
ment, all to be protected by the Bri
tish ileet.
