WAR ON CLOAK MODELS.
Woman's Organization Declares Oc-

for Friday only.

VI OC-
cupation Is Dmoralizing to Girls.
New York.-If the Industrial We'll
fare Committee of the National Civic
Federation has its way, cloak models
in garment factories and showrooms
will have to seek other means of live
lihood. The committee, which is
composed of prominent women repre-
senting various sections Of the coun-
try, has decided that the employment
of girls as models is demoralizing to
the girls, the employees and the Gus
toners. AS a result of personal in
vestigation, made by the members of
the committee in many factories and
garment showrooms, the Civic Feder-
alton will undertake campaign
among the employees to discontinue
the practice and substitute lay fig
ures.
1--WE found that the employing OF
girls as models has a demoralizing
effect on the girls themselves and on
the employers and purchasers" said
Mrs. ]. Borden Hartman, chairman
of the committee, " and for that rea-
son we decided to recommend that
the Civic Federation make an issue
of the matter"
Other well-known members Of the
welfare committee are Mrs. Marcus
NJ Marks, Mrs. Eugene s. Benjamin,
Mrs. Emmanuel w. Einstein, Mrs.
Robert Watchorn, Mrs. Clement A.
Griscom, jr., and Mrs. C. U. Carpen-
ter.
