SEATTLE,
.
Jan. 24. (Special.) Henry M. White, United States
Commissioner, will act as special mediator in attempting an immediate adjustment of the Seattle, Tacoma and
Aberdeen
shipyard strike, affecting
15,000 workers.
This announcement tonight by Commissioner Whit was the first official
statement that the Federal Department
of Labor had taken a hand in the
Northwestern ship strike.
In his efforts to conciliate the wage
controversy. Commissioner White probably will be assisted by Henry
chief of the industrial relations
division of the United States Shipping
Roard in Seattle, and other Government representatives in this district.
The fourth day of the shipyard
strike witnessed further efforts on the
part of the strike committees to are
range a
strike of all organized labor in sympathy with the shipyard workmen.
End to Strike Sought.
Commissioner
White has received
many appeals during the last few days
from representative
citizens asking
that immediate steps be taken by the
Government to forestall a prolonged
strike. Delegations neutral In the dispute between the workers and ship
yard owners have alp telegraphed the
Department of Labor at Washington,
submitting the same appeal.
"I have not yet succeeded in bringing both parties in the shipyard strike
together, but I am hopeful that a common ground can be found to do so,"
said Commissioner White. "We will
hasten our efforts in order to avert
the calling of a general sympathetic
ttrike in Seattle."
Preparations were continued today
by strike committees
of the Metal
Trades Council for the calling of a
general strike of all unions on February 1. Charles W. Dcyle, business agent
and acting secretary of the Central
Labor Council, is now notifying executive committees of all affiliated unions
to assemble in a mass meting in the
Labor Temple at noon next Monday.
At this meeting the proposed general
strike will be discussed and arrangements made to pell a referendum vote
to determine the sentiment of all
unions of organized labor In the city.
Grocers ltcfuse Credit.
Announcement today of the Retail
Grocers' Association to the effect that
credit would be refused striking shipyard men was answered by Fred Nelson,
of the Metal Trades
Council, by the statement that union
officials already are arranging to finance a
market system.
Through the
Food Products Association, he said, foods would
be dispensed and credit arranged for
striking shipyard workmen. This association comprises representatives of
organized labor, farmers and granges,

It not infrequently happens that reports of popular uprisings, of grave decisions by the various
great powers, and of other important events,
printed in the newspapers of one day have to be
considerably modified on the next. This is inevitable, in view of the haste with which such news
must be rushed to the presses. To obtain a really
accurate account of history in the making time
must be given for the verification of the facts,

The unanimity with which our State Legislatures have hastened to ratify the Eighteenth
Amendment to the United States Constitution is a source of wonderment to many of our
representative newspapers. Thus to the New York Tribune it seems "as if a sailing-shi- p

publications in more positive terms. The Pittsburg Gazette-Time- s
declares that the

Estimates as to the amount that will
be liquidated in claims of shipyard
workers of the Oregon district for retroactive pay place it as high as $1,000,-00The probabilities are that all
yards will have paid their men by the
latter part of next week.
The retroactive pay feature was part
of the last decision of the Shipbuilding
Labor Adjustment Board, which was
handeidown in OctODer, and stipulated
that retroactive pay was to be included from August L In wood ship plants
some of the men drew checks for
amounts up to $50 and $60 and in the
steel yards many checks ran higher,
though there were numerous smaller
ones, as all trades were not advanced.
The Northwest Steel Company and
the Columbia River Shipbuilding Corporation began paying off their men
Thursday and in those yards alone close
to $330,000 was represented in checks
made ready for the workers. The ruling of the Government has been
