census Of the squirrel population Of
Central Park il going 10 be taken in conse-
quence Of the remarkable interest shown
10y many men and women in the welfare Of
the little fellows The park authorities
are amazed by the public solicitude for the
squirrels and say that il has actually de-
veloped into craze that a times becomes
bothersome.
If this thing keeps on we'il epon have to
provide feather beds for the shadetails and
have nurses to tuck them in their little
beds said one of the men in the park yes
terday
Some women complained year ago that
the squirrels did not get food enough in the
winter The Park Commissioner sent out
and bought few quarts of peanuts The
peanut feeding had to be kept up, and last
week IA much IA five bushels OF the nuts
we're scattered IN the park, The food
10 now bought at wholesale.
Some other women, wiser than the maker
OF squirrels. complained that the squirrels
did not have proper shelter in the trees in
winter \ hundred little houses were built
and put in the trees for their comfort Re
Gently woman sent dozen more Of the
houses to the park and "A few days ago other
women demanded more houses so the de-
partmeut had half hundred more con
HtrlCtcd
When the men started out with the houses
several women. champions Of the squirrels
saw them and undertook 10 boss the Job
They selected the trees and directed iusi
how tho houses should be placed in them
The park attendants let them have their
way. There might have been trouble II
they hadn't. Then the women sent out 10
nearby stores for food for their pets

there was a woman who was killed with
Kindness. Some Of the park people are of
the opinion that too luxurious life tends 10

squirrels prefer the homes made by them
selves or take TO a pauper life in homes
made for them.

Talk on His Prediction THAT the Next Fight
May He for the Open shop.

Charles H. Eidlitz, president OF the Build
ing Trades Employers Association, who n
year ago declared himself in favor OF the
open shop and al a dinner Of the Contractors
Protective Associatio on Saturday eI-
pressed the opinion that the next fight in
the building trades was likely to be for the
open shop. stirred up "A great fuss in the
Central Federated Union yesterday by tho
hitter announcement. Mr.. Eidlit2's own
version of his Saturday night remarks Is
this:
Il said We had tried arbitration once,
but the unions broke away, and that wa
had tried second time and the unions
still seemed 10 be dissatisfied and broke
away again Then said that in my opinion
If arbitration failed for the third time and
II was demonstrated that II could not satisfy
the unions. within year or a year and "A
half there would be another fight. not for
unonism or for arbitration. but for the open
shop CO.., in fact for the non-union shop.
| also said that an Indian fighter once re-
marked that the only good Indian was "A
dead Indian. and that II was beginning 10
look a. If the only good union was the union
that didn't exist. simply stated nay
opinions as an individual
There was blood in the eye OF Delegate
Frederick Paulitsch OF the Amalgamated
Sheet Metal Workers. who are working
under the employers arbitration agree
ment. when he got up at the Central
answer Mr. Eidlitz.
We were forced TO sign the arbitration
agreement said Paulitsch, 'and we are
still working under il. We are practically
forced in measure 10 recognize the open
shop. for what are the new unions formed
under the arbitration agreement but an
aggregation of non-union men formed into
unions? ! don't understand what Mr..
Eidlitl meant by his assertion.
The building trades need thorough
Organization" remarked Delegate Flynn
Of the Brass Workers, we should do some
thing about it,"
But Flynn had no suggestions 10 make
about what should be done. and the {. ' /.
dropped the discussion nfter voting financial
assistance To the Glass Workers who arc
striking against the open shop.
1t came out yesterday that an attempt
was made oend the lockout Of the pll-terers
at a conference in the Building Trades Club
on Saturday evening between Representa-
tlves Of the National Union Of Piasterers
and the Employing Plasterers' Association.
The locked out men refused TO work with
members OF the new union of plasterers
saying that this would be virtually tho
open shop, so the negotiations failed.
