RALLY T0 STRIKE CALL arriy over South African Mine Workers Gener- ous in Response to Owders to Quit Work. London, March 8, (By ociated Pross).—South African workers have rallied in a fairly wide response to the call for a general strike issued by executive committees of the industrial federation and trades unions in sym- pathy with striking miners, says an Iixchange Telegraph dispatch from Johannesburg, Many shops in the business section have been closed their proprietors violence. Waiters and wait- » been forcibly taken from their jobs in the few restaurants that are open. Slaughter-house workers have ceased work and mechanics at two important railroad centers have gone on strike.

QUIGLEY DISCUSSE FINANGES OF CITY Compares Debt Increase in Last and Previous Administrations ' Mayoralty Candidate George A. Quigley mailed letters today to.about 10,000 voters asking their support at the republican primaries, and if he is successful in securing the nomina- tion, at the voting polls. “So-Called ¥Economy.” In his communication, he attacks what he terms the “co-called cconom- fcal government” of the past fwo v , drawing comparisons, ‘n fi- nances, with the records of his three administrations. His letter points out that the tax rate today is actually 38 mills on the grand list of year, whereas the tax-rate that was but 25 mills. The debt, serts, has grown $564,767.56 years that Mayor O. I%. Curtis was in | office, while in his six years it in- creased but $273,524.80. 'This in spite of an actual increase of 13 mills in the tax rate, and the fact that no improvements were made during the last administration, he amues.

I repeat that I think the obligation to meet and consult is the only obligation existing in this treaty, and the main purpose of the treaty is attained by the termination of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, “It is not necessary for me to go into detail as to the reasons for my opinion as to the great importance of this single achievement, Tt is suffi- cient to say that in my judgment the | Anglo-Japanese alliance was the most dangerous element in our relations with the I"ar Bast and with the Paci- fie. Wars come from suspicions which develop into hatreds and hatreds which develop into war. The Anglo- Japanese alliance caused a growing feeling of suspicion not only in the United States but in Cfanada. On the other side it tended to give a back- ground to Japan which encouraged the war spirit and large preparations both by land and sea for future con- flict. It immobolized England and prevented the exercise of her influ- ence in the Ilast for the cause of peace, and peace is distinctly in her interest in that great region. That menace to peace is removed by the four power treaty. No Similarity. “I have already shown the total difference which exists between this treaty and the Anglo-Japanese alli- ance. There is no likeness between that alliance and this treaty.
