been on strike since early In December.
"I am going to England to raise the

a general strike throughout Great

which assembled In front ot Liberty hall

He continued; "Wo have fought suc

LONDON, Nov. IS. The release otA
.Tame Larkln from prison In Dublin has
apparently served to Intensify the bitter
feeling In the labor world of the British
Isles and a general strike of trades union
ists throughout the United Kingdom Is
again threatened. The union men are de
termined to fight the labor dispute In
Dublin to "a finish.
An emergency meeting of the trades
union parliamentary' committee, has been
summoned for November 15 to consider
proposals for a general stoppage of work
In the British Isles.
Hobert Williams, general secretary of
the Transport Workers' union, said this
afternoon:
Itelense Xnt Sum Total.
"It must not be assumed that the re
lease of James Larkln Is the sum total
of our demands. We are going for a
still greater triumph In Dublin. The
government must ceaso to act In collu
sion with the employers by giving facU
itter fop trnportltiK noixuioi'i labor. I have
np, doubt that unless. the.ern.PtQy,ei7i Blye
fray before 'TuesQay next the trades
union parliamentary committee will de
cide to call on the workers of the United
Kingdom to take such steps as are nec
essary to break down the anti-labor and
anti-trades Union methods of the despots
of Dublin."

Hensley Favors
Naval Holiday
WASHINGTON, Nov. M.-That the
United States' should Join the naval holi
day proposed by Winston Churchill was
urged In the house today by Representa

asked Immediate action on his resolu
tion to commit this government to the
plan in the Interest of universal peace.
Mr. Hensley declared leading members
on both sides of the house supported the
plan. Ho declared a naval holiday of
one year, practicable and feasible, based
on common sense and common honesty
among nations and that the United States
was ready to Join the powers to save
hundreds of millions of dollars for pur
poses more beneficial to mankind. '
Mr, Hensley said a year's" naval holiday
"meant the death knell to reckless, wan
ton, nonsensical and almost criminal
waste" of the people's money. He eulo
gized lord 'Churchill and declared that his
heart was right. Ho spoke of Influences
brought to bear by armanent and naval
supply interests In favor of a powerful

The fact that Mr. MeKlnlev la attemnu

purpose ot making an Interurban depot
out of It, would Indlcato that he Is con-

Whether the MeKlnlev interest, would
tear down the present auditorium and
build a modern depot, or remodel the
present structure is a conjecture. Rumor
has It that the building will be torn down
entirely and a now stone structure
erected. Baggage room and freight houses
would be necessary, but there Is plenty
of room for all these in addition to the

The Auditorium comnanv rAnlv an.

whom they contemplated selling the

since the withdrawal of the offer to sell

Klnley Interests, It Is understood, have
been working with local representatives
In an attempt to secure the Auditorium,
and It Is thought that a deal will be closed

learn in the advertising col
umns ofl The Bee and of other
live newspapers, how to spend
their Income In the safest and
most profitable wa.
