The British dclegate said that he was unable to explain the discrepancy unless it was due to the fact that some British firms are op- erating from countries outside of Britain, : During Monday's meeting, Japan announced that she was unable to give the : mount of morphine manu- factured in Formosa.

His familiar "brush y' off, sub," threatens to be missing. For George is thinking seriously of going on strike for a living wage. In some places, the cast particular. ly, George says that it will be the traveling person's own fault, In Milwaukee, however, George says straight from the shoulder that the Pullman company itself is at fault, A, Phillip Randolph, general or- ganizer of the Brotherhood of Seep- mg Car Porters, is said to have about given up hope of success in the battle he has waged the last year to abolish the tip system in order to ohtain a living wage, Now he is considering whether a strike among the porters might not be the right move.

But there is so much competition between the railroads mow. ghat they don't get .0 many people to thd¥®., and so we can't get as much in tips" This man said he makes 15 trips a month between two large citics 400 miles apart.
