SECRETARY HAS
BIG TASK AHEAD
Condition Of Women and
Child Workers in United
States to be Investigated

by an enactment Of the United states
Senste tho Secretary OF Commerce has
been authorized 10 investigate ana ronirt
upon the condition Of women and child
workers throughout tho country a task
which VIII require an immense amount Of
hard and careful work on the part OF this
official.
In the city Of Wilmington alone there
are hundreds OF young women and ehil.
dren who contribute 20 the support Of
parents. who are physically unable 10
provide for themselves and their on
springs. In all the large factories thore
Is great percentage OF female help and
many OF this class OF labor earn good
wages, just how many Of this number are
compelled by necessity 20 work Is not
known but Il may be safe 70 assume that
there are but few young women who pre-
fer life OF toll to q life OF ease. The
actual condition Of such workers will

especially u homo surroundings arc 10 DO

The young woman worker. upon compile

Is neatness itself and IL greeted by a
smiling family groun whose influences
alone are such as to make her condition IN
lfe Tar above that Of possibly tho oom-
ranion who works daily at her side. She,
naturally Is tidy In her appearances. cheer
full In disposition and as contented as pos

On the other hand is often found the
young woman, who upon her home com
inE finds nothing but slovenlness. dissi-
patton and possibly curses and abuse. Her
condition sometimes almost begsars aes,
eriptlon.
In summing up his report the Secretary
Of Commerce must necessarily take al
these things into consideration and weigh
/ them accordingly.
In estimating the condition Of ''cni
workers" the task may not be 20 difaoul
as IN many states, Delaware Included

us an increase OF even fifty additional pri-
Yates to our force. Were such the case the
White House detail could be spared without
the curtailment being felt. do not think
should be considered There is unan-
nous demand on the part of our citizens at
large that our police force be enlarged to
meet Its exigencies and the rapidly expand
ing boundaries of the populated sections of
the District Washington is expanding
with great rapidity. while the police force
remains practically the same. and its in
creases In recent years have been In nowise
commensurate with this growth.
And as for the soldier police detail at
the White House, 1t might well be ar
gued that since the government has so
many troops which might be spared for
that purpose. a soldier guard be established
IN other governmental quarters in this city.
II at the White House, then at the Capitol,
and elsewhere, even though the Capitol
force Is separate one. Once you get
started on the soldier guard theory there is
no limit to 1t. One would think that there
would be no question OF the adequacy of
the police force of the capital OF the nation
numerically, yet IT is a fact that the city
authorities have for years experienced the
utmost difficulty in persuoding Congress TO
grant them the small increases which have
been made from time to time.
There are some things In a city govern
ment IN which economy IL a good thing to
practice but II Is the consensus of rnunic-
ipal opinion that II is the very poorest sort
of economy that skimps either the police or
fire forces OF a city. 1t took the water
front fire OF a few years ago to wake Con-
gress up to the needs of the fire department
In more powerful. up-to-date steamers, and
that department received three or four good
steamers In consequence. I am sure our
citizens will be glad II the present discus
sion OF our police force will have a similar
good effect upon our aldermanic body"

BIG GOLF MATCH
THIS AFTERNOON

The second intercity golf match between
Columbia clubs, started this afternoon on
the course of the latter at 2 O'Clock. Last
Saturday the Chevy Chase team defeated
the Columbia aggregation, and 1t is expect
ed that the latter will even up things today.
These matches are made up of twenty play
ers on each side, and for this reason the
result is problematical, the uncertainty of
the game giving every one of the partici-
pants q. chance to score victory and help
his team
Both clubs will have out their best play
ers and the contest will be one of the most
interesting to the local golfers
The Columbia course was somewhat soft
this afternoon when the first drive-off was
made, but it is expected that many low
scores will be made by the crack players on
both sides.
Following is the probable lineup of the
two teams:
Colunnbia-L. L. Harlan, A. T. Mattingly

BIG ATHLETIC
MEET OF COLLEGES

CHICAGO, June 2.-The games of the col
leges and universities of the western inter-
collegiate conference were held today on
Sheppard Field, the new athletic grounds
of Northwestern University at Evanston
They were attended by the greatest crowd
that has ever witnessed an event of this
kind In Chicago. strong delegations having
come from the various Institutions repre-
sented among the contestants.
The meet was easily the most important
affair of its kind ever held In the west,
seventeen universities. colleges and schools,
including the most prominent institutions
in the west, being represented. The entries
In many of the features were large, and In
two events the quarter-mile run and the
pole vault, the number was SO great that
II was found necessary to hold the pre-
limtnary trials yesterday in order to allow
the games to be finished In one afternoon
Chicago University experienced severe
loss iii the absence of its star quarter-rnile
sprinter, Quigiey, who failed to enter within
the prescribed time limit, and was barred
out after sharp argument between the
manaYing committee, composed OF alumni
and the faculty committee The latter body
was ait first in favor of allowing Quigley to
start. but so strong g protest was made
agalnst him by the members of the manag-s
ing committee that he was dropped.
The institutions represented In the meet
are az follows. Chicago Michigan, Purdue,

MILITARY AT WHITE HOUSE.
Proposed Relief of the Police Guard
Of the President.

Anent the need of additional members
on the District police force" said an official
to Star reporter, 'T note suggestion in
some quarters to remove the police detail
at the White House and place soldiers or
marines there as guard instead.
I do not think this suggestion will meet
with the approval of those who have the
responsibility of guarding and policing the
District, nor do think that the idea of
placing a guard of troops on duty In the
White House grounds and In that building
commends itself to the country at large.
There are several underlying principles why
such proposition should not be looked
upon with favor
has an abundance of material TO use for
this protection, in the shape of idle soldiers
or marines. which would not be missed
from their commands, it is an underlying
principle with us In this country that troops
are needed for any purpose only when the
situation Is locally such that the police
power is inadequate This Was the case
during the San Francisco calamity where
police power gave away to military rule
and soldiers and not officers did patrol and
guard duty. $50
IT our police force is inadequate in num-
bers. as It is, II is the primary duty OF our
