Establishments conceded the ffty-flve hour week to
their employees to-day, making more than sixty
firms that have given the workers the shorter week
since the movement was begun. Two of the estao-
Iishrnents-one n dyeing and finishing works and
the other spinning Tlill-agree TO pay their en-
ployes the Of sixty hours week for ffftyve
hours work. Among the workers who quit to-day
and joined the strikers for the shorter week were
large number of tape weavers, who are the first in
this branch OF the textile industry join in the
struggle.
The leaders in the strike are giving considerable
attention the child labor feature of the textile
industry. They say that some manufacturers are
violating the law by making children work under
conditions that are prohibited. They hone that
publicity of the alleged violations Will so rouse
public sentiment that the manufacturers will be
forced least to arbitrate the differences between
the workers and themselves The strikers declare
they have always been willing to arbitrate.

1t has been shown that the concrete lining IS

that, IL would be something else, and the reservoir
