New Yffirlt, Feb. 19.--The shipyard stride, which threatened to tie tip the entire shipbuilding program of the United States on the Atlantic coast, Jias been ended, at least temporarily, by the personal appeal of President Wilson. President William Hutcheson and the officials of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners telephoned to all local officials, asking them to have the toen under their jurisdiction back at work at once, and wired union offi­ cials in Baltimore and other places that he wanted the wish of the president of the United States complied with im­ mediately. Washington, Feb. 19i--President Wilson has telegraphed Wiliim I*. Hutcheson, general president of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join ers, that he can see nothing to be gained by conferring with him person­ ally about the strike of shipyard car­ penters until he has accepted and acted upon the principle that in the present circumstances of the nation no body of men has the right to strike until every method of adjustment has been tried to the limit. The president's message was sent In reply to one received from Hutch­ eaon saying he had been; unable to reach an understanding with officials of the shipping board, but felt that if given an opportunity to lay the mat­ ter before the president a solution could be arrived at quickly. It was made public on Sunday, as follows: "William L. Hutcheson. "General President United Brother­ hood of Carpenters and Joiners of America. "New York." "I have received your telegram of yesterday and am very glad to note the expression of your desire as a pa­ triotic citizen to assist in carrying on the work by which we are trying to save America and men everywhere who work and are free.

"Taking advantage of that assur- ^ r" ance, I feel It to be my duty to call _ your attention to the fact that the ., *v strike of the carpenters in the ship­ yards is In marked and painful con- •5 trast to the action of labor in other ,r- trades and places. Ships are abso- lutely necessary for the winning of this war. No one can strike a dead­ s' ; \ Uer blow at the safety of the nation ; and its forces on the other side jdS* than by interfering with or obstruct- fp ing the shipbuilding program. "All the other unions engaged in «>.' this indispensable work have agreed to abide by the decision of the ship- ^ ' bonding wage adjustment board. That board has dealt fairly and lib- ^ erally with all who have resorted to j&h it. I must say to you very frankly that it is your duty to leave to it the . solution of your present difficulties ?/, ' with your employers and to advise the men whom you represent to re- - turn at once pending the decision. "No body of men has the moral MLI rt£ht in the present circumsThnces of tf*. • the nation to strike until every method of adjustment has been tried '» to the limit. If you do not act upon w* this principle you are undoubtedly rV giving aid and comfort to the en- emy, whatever may be your own con­ scious purpose. "I do not see that anything will be gained by my seeing you personally, until you have accepted and acted upon that principle. It is the duty of the government to see that the best possible conditions of labor are maintained, as it is also its duty to see to it that there Is no lawless and conscienceless profiteering and that duty the government has accepted and will perform.

Johnson, recently des-* Ignated by President Wilson to be deputy provost injarshal general, will from this time on practically have charge of the operation of the draft law.
