FOR HAWKEYE FOLKS
STATE ITEMS WHICH WILL BE OF
GENERAL INTEREST.

Des Moines, Ia, July 1.-The first at
tempt in Iowa to compel a merchant to
furnish seats tor his saleswomen was
begun Thursday in a Des Moines court.
The suit was that of the state against
J. B. Alderman, brought at the in
stance of the Iowa Humane society.
The points which have been left with
Justice Blyler to decide are:
Does a 6xS-inch pine ink box consti-
tute suitable seat demanded by the
iowa statute?
Are seven such pine boxes. two win
dow seats partly filled with merchan-
disc, and numerous drawers that may
be pulled out of tables sufficient seats
for a force of salesgrls that has varied
from fifteen to fifty?.
Does the fact that the salesgirls
were permitted to obtain boxes to the
number of seven from the basement to
use as seats constitute "a maintenance
of suitable seats when practicable?"
An additional point which it is neces-
sary for Justice Blyler to decide is
whether girls who have and who evince
a desire to retain positions with the
establishment are in a position to give
more satisfactory evidence than others
who have left the employ Of the de-
Tense. In his endeavor to pronounce
upon the suitability Of seven pine ink
boxes as seats Justice Blyler is en-
tangled by the conflicting testimony of
the salesgirls. Those who have left
Manager Ackerman's establishment af-
firm that as a resting place 6xS-inch
box is not to be preferred to a chair
or stool. The prosecution maintains
that they are not to be accepted as
substitutes in the eye of the law.
The girls who are still with the firm
claim that pine ink boxes are perfectly
lovely as seats. Manager Alderman
explains that between the counters
and the shelves there is not space for
anything but pine ink boxes. The coun-
sci for the defense asks If the state in
terprets the dubious requirement for
maintenance of suitable seats when
practicable to be used to such an ex-
tent as the work may reasonably per-
nit to mean that his client or any
merchant is bound by law to furnish
Morris chairs, leather couches. settees.
or folding beds.
