NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 24, 1017. BADEWITZ READY T0 |CAPITAL VS, LABOR |SAYS IT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE 10 Chamber of Commerce Asked for Vote on Relerendum SINK VARROWDALE . Prize Crew of Captured Liner Taking No Chances Berlin, Jan. 24, by wireless to Say- Ville.—Some details of the voyage of the British steamer Yarrowdale, cap- tured by the German commerce raid- er in ghe South Atlantic and brought into Swinemuende, were disclosed by Naval Lieutenant Badewitz, com- mander of the prize crew which brought her to port, in an interview With a representative of the Overseas News Agency. © view the agency says: “Lieutenant Badewitz, who gives the impression of being a truc sailor, told the story of his voyage in a modest way, making light of his own part in it. He was asked how he fucceeded In bringing the Yarrow- dale through the North Atlantic and the blockade into the North Sea with & crew of only sixteen men and over ¢+ two hundred persons on board. He replied: “‘Tor such an action you need only | to exercise coolness and determined, blunt carelessness, especially it you have to deal with Englishmen. In fdadition vou need to have a handful of smart boys like mine who have their hearts in the right place and revalvers in their pockets. Then you ¢an fetch the devil from his own Youse.” “Questioned as to how he held his oddly mingled members of the pris- oner erews under discipline, Lieutep- ant Badewitz replied: ‘‘The discipline was first rate. Whenever the order to go below was issued. the whole crowd of prisoners hurried to the lower decks running like hares.’ “Lieutenant Badewitz said he and the sixteen men of his own crew never left the bridge of the Yarrow- dale, and all preparations were made to sink the ship at a moment’s notice without leaving the bridge. All on board, he said, knew that he would have sunk the vessel in event of a mutiny or a revolt. The captured captains were very sensible and did | much to hold their men in check. | The prisoners thought that/they ceuld | count upon touching at a Norwegian port. Among them were six members of the British navy, of whom three | belonged to an English armed mer- vhantman on bhoard which they had served as gunners. “‘When the Yarrowdale was riding | at anchor south of Island Haven, in the sound, on account of the fog, one Dritish naval ner and one civilian jumped overboard to swim ashore, but no sooner felt the cold water than he began to cry for help. He were rescued.’ “Before the war Lieutenant Bade- «~ Witz was ewnployed in the merchant He lives in Kiel.” P OUCH! BACKACHE!

Uric “ Noted Authority says we must flush Kidneys with Salts if Back hurts. i We are a nation of meat eaters and | our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly or guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating aecld, but hecome weak from the overwork: they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the watse is retained in the blood to peison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have sting- ing pains in the back or the urine is ;, tull of sediment, or the blad- s frritable, obliging vou to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheuwmatism in bad weather, get from vour pharmaclist about four ounces of Jad Saits; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kid- neys will act fine. This famous s: $s made from the acid of grapes lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has Leen used for generations to flusk: and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is ho longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little oc- casionally to keep the kidneys clean ¢ and active. Reporting the inter- | Bringing the subject of disputes be- and their employeocs men, the New Brit- o of tween railways home to business ain Chamber of Commerce throush referendum sent by the Chamber Commerce of the United States, asked to go on record for or again: the following questions: IL—Shall ('xis!mi law be so amend- ed or supplemented as to require fnll public investigation of the merits of every dispute between railroad car- riers of interstate commerce and their employees, to be instituted and com- pleted before any steps tending to the interruption of transportation shall be attempted? 11.—Shall existing law be so amend- ed or supplemented as to provide that upon -any board of investigation or ar- bitration of disputes between railroad carriers of interstate commerce and their employees, the employers and employees shall have equal represen- tation and the public, as having par- amount interest, shall have a major- ity representation? I11.—Should congress establish a permanent statistical division under ine interstate commerce commission to study and compile statistics relat- ing to wage and conditions of service upon railways, the records and ser- vices of this division to be immediate- Iy available to boards ef investizaton | or arbitration considering disputes be- tiveen railways and their emplovees? Advoeates Majority on Arbitration. With the referendum is carried @ report by the national chamber rail- 1oad committee of which €. F. Weed, president of the Boston Chamber of Commerce, is chairman. As expiained by Secretary Andrews, of the chamber, this report backs up Pre dent Wilson's legislative program for i settlement of railroad differences nd advocated an affirmative answe: on the part of commercial orgeniza- tions affiliated with the national chamber to the above questions. It will be remembered that the Chamber of Commerce of the Tinited Stetes by an overwhelming vote had ked that congress direct the irt te commerce commission to inves- tigate the causes leading up to the threatened strike before a settlement be attempted. The new report fol- lows the same fundamental principle of a full investigation before a strike or lockout, hut suggests the different agencies and laws for carrying it ont. 1t not only recognizes the intersst of tle public. paramount, but provides it shall be paramount hy making the 1cpresentatives of the public the ma- jority on' any board of conciliation or arbitration. Pro and Con. Following the invariable rule the referendum contains arguments for and against tha recommendations so that organizations may be fully in- formed before finally casting their votes. The main heads of the neza- tive side of the question are: (1) An investigation and tion of the results will not always serve to enlghten public opinion, since many controversies involve quesilons different from the justice of an in- crease in wages or of a decrease in hours. (2) Employees are entitled to act collectively, even when they are in the service of enterprises of public vtility. (3) Even temporary prohibi- tion of strikes and lockouts may be ineffectual. (4) The proposal makes no provision to protect the public af- ter a board of investigation has made its report, except in so far as public opinion may be effective. (5) Anv rrohibition of strikes contains an ele- n'ent of incompleteness unless there is regulation of other items of rail- expenditure than Jabor. (6) The public’s fundamental interest is not primarily in the rates it pays for transpor jon but in the welfar2 of a large body of its own members; this interest is not necessarily prompted by having on boards a majority of members representing the public. The balloting closes Tuesday, Jan- uary 30. DANDRUFF GOES ! HAIR GETS THICK, WAVY, BEAUTIFUL publica- Save your hair! Double its beauty in a few moments, Try this!

Washington, D. C., 24.—Fol- lowing an urgent call to participate in a discussion of pressing national questions now facing American busi- ness, representatives of commercial organiz: the country have signified their intention of be- ing present in larger numbers than probably ever before, at the fifth an- nual mecting of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States to be held in Washington, 31, February 1 and 2. The war having opened a new era in world commerce business men are now facing conditions without prece- dent which will have to be met at its close. It is argued this state of af- fairs will, of course, affect our for- eign trade and it will also have far- reaching influence upon domestic bus- iness. i National Defense on Program. Accordingly, the railroad situation, national defense, and many other questions of paramount importance are included in the subjects to be discussed at the meeting. It is be- cause these issues are so urgent and of such vital importance to our future developments that the unusually large representation promises to be in at- tendance. Business men to the num ber of from one thousand to fifteen hundred, selected as delegates anc alternates by the commercial bodie affiliated with the National Chambc: will be present. In dealing with the preparation fo conditions after the war, prominen speakers will discuss separate phases such as business, finance, transpor tation, and education for foreig: trade. Of particular interest will be that part of the discussion to thec railroad situation. At the time of the annual meetin: the result of a National Chamber ref erendum upon which the commercia’ bodies of the country are now voting will be announced for the first timec. It has to do with disputes between railroads and their employes particu- larly the prevention of strikes and lockouts. The canvass will show ex- actly how the business men of the country stand on this subject. Having already endorsed a compre- hensive plan for nation2l defense, a special session will be set aside for this subject, Thursday morning, Feb. 1. Tt is expected there will be three speakers and then the report of the National Chamber committee on na- tional defense, through its chairman. Bascom Little, formerly president of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. The National Chamber strongly advo- cafes universal military training upon which discussion is expected to center. Daylight Saving. Among the' numerous committec reports to be presented, more than passing attention will be attracted by | that on daylight saving. Robert Gar- land, president of the Pittsburgh Chamber of Commerce, is the chalr- man of this committee. All available data is being collected with a view to its presentation to the delegates assembled in Washington. Several suggested amendments to the by-laws of the National Chamber will be voted upon at the annual meeting.

WILSON IGNORANT OF GERMAN TERMS President’s Speech Not Outline What Berlin Considers Price of For Declaring Peace. Washington, Jan. 24.—One of the things learned at the White House vesterday was that President Wilson has not received from Berlin the terms upon which Germany will be willing to make peace with her en- emies. Statements have been made here that the president had received the German terms in confidence, and it was even intimated that he had them when he wrote the address to the senate. \ The impression sought to be cre- ated by this intimation was that the president in his address had merely paraphrased the German conditions for an emding of the war. What was learned at the House showed that such statements were untrue and that the terms for permanent peace stated by the presi- dent were his own terms and not those of any belligerent government.

After commenting upon the rejection of Germany’s peace proposal by the Entente, the president said: The fateful hour of the German empire is approaching. For the sec- cnd time war has been declared on us and today we, a more serious and matured people, accustomed to vic- tory, are standing behind the empe: or.

The lat- est application of its untiring research is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal sanita- tion of the drainage system of the hu- man body as it is to the drains of the house. Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull end heavy when we arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom- ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluicesy of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisoncus; stagnant matter. | Everyone, whether ailing, sick or| well, should, each morning before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water With a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom- ach, liver and bowels the previous day’'s indigestible waste, sour bile anl poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entlre alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on | an empty stomach is wonderfully in- ! vigorating. It cleans out all the sour | fermentations, gases, waste and acid- ity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water i# quietly extracting a large vol- ume of water from the blood and get- ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs. The millions of people who are both- ered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of lime- stone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little, but is suffi- clent to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal ean- ftatton.
