Out on n quiet east end OF cleveland
lives a little married woman who will
have a lot TO answer for on the last day.
This woman has a telephone that IL on
a party line. The other party" on the
line is a boarding house where a dosen OF
more young men take their meals, each
young man having, Of course. one or more
goils to fret about. These young men
call up from the boarding house while
they're picking their teeth after meals, to
make definite and certain arrangements
for sitting on the cozy corners that they
have picked out for theirs. The result is
that when a married woman on the line
wants to call up her dressmaker or make
a bridge date, she has TO wait for hours
at a time while the members Of the hand
holders crowd with hearts keeping syn
copated time together. cen though far
apart, ping pong their conversation back
and forth over the wires.
She thought for a time OF asking the
telephone company to put her on another
line. But she thought then OF another
way TO get possible relief. Now when
ever there is a conversation going on over
that line she listens in" The other night
a young man at the boarding house notl-
fled an East Cleveland creature that he
would be out to do q fireside companion
turn that evening. Then the married
woman in a soft gurgle voice butted in.
Why she says, you can't 80 out
there. You told that Lorain avenue girl
you'd be over tonight"
The last Cleveland party supposed the
Interruption came from somebody at the
boarding house who knew Just what every
boarder had booked for the week.
That's one case that this r~evengefui
married woman has put on the blink and
will have 60 answer for.
Then a few days ago this woman heard
two rings for the boarding house. she
answered the phone herself, and as no.

did the talking. "Is Mr.. Jones thera7'

why. no." replied the woman with the
Mrs. to her name, 'he went over 10 TO-

The next day when that supposedly mar

got his.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

NO DEMAND FOR MECHANICS
DENIAL OF NEED ISSUED BY
EMPLOYERS.
To Bring Workers Here Will Bs
Detrimental to Local Labor,
They Say.

The Employers Association of the
District Of Columbia has taken official
cognizance OF the published statement
OF w. F. Gilmore, business agent Of the
Building Trades Mechanics Council,
that almost 1000 skilled mechanics
could find employment with contractors
in this city, A statement issued by
the association of employers today
after denying that any such need ex-
lists, or is likely to- adds:
1.-THE employers association is COM
posed Of a large number Of the building
whom employ only union workmen and
some employing 'open-shop men exclu-
sively. 1t is therefore in a position
to speak authoritatively on the subject.
and agrees with Mr.. Sam De Nedrey,
editor of the Trades Unionist, that to
bring additional mechanics to the city
would be detriment to local labor.
there being now many men in each Of
the various trades. both union and
open shop, out Of employment.
with regard to the venture of Mr..
Gilmore. that between 80 and % per
cent Of the contractors are employing
union men, the Employers Association
states that the reverse Of this statement
would be nearer correct; that the strictly
union or closed shop is now the exception,
and that a large majority of the builders
are operating on the open-shop basis.
That the year is prosperous one In the
building line is admitted. but the asso-
citation claims this is due in a large
measure to the adoption of the open
shop principles, which inure to the bene-
fit of the employer and employe alike.
and leaves the workman free to earn a
living unrestricted by the mandates of
a union. A canvass of the builders em-
ploying union men resulted in showing
that they have several applications daily
from union men out OF work.
THE consensus of opinion is that Mr..
Gilmore's statement as to the demand
for workmen is most unfortunate, and it
is hoped that its contradiction may be in
time to forestall any hardship to the
resident workmen. and disappointment to
the many who would seek employment
here
