They both owe this to you, and
you should insist upon it. So
long as you are in the home, it is
perfectly proper for him to. stay

she should have a chaperone-

One of the most important reso-
luuons presented TO tho Virginia
Federation Of Labor, Assem- hled at
Murphy's Hotel in sixteenth annual
convention. Is a paper prepared by
Frank S. Lyon. OF the Central La
Dor Union of Newport News. calling
on the government OF Virginia to
adopt measures to stop the ravages
of the great white plague"
This paper was presented to the
com mittee on resolutions at the We'd
nesday morning session Of the con-
Fenton, and after being considered
ny that committee, will be placed
before the convention at the late
w ednesday afternoon session. It is
believed that the paper will receive
the unanimous approval OF the con
vention and that the provisions II
urges will be carried into effect.
The Resolution.
The text OF the paper is as follows.
whereas the Virginia State Fedora
ton or Labor. at It's thirteenth an
nual session. adopted a resolution
calling on the General Assembly of
Virginia and the State board Of
health to adopt the latest scientific
methods and wage fight against and

whereas the last General Asse m :

Just as much the duty of the State
to establish sanator4ums and hospi
tails for the treatment or tuberculosis
as II Is to care for the insane, and the
INDECENT people suffering with any
form of tuberculosis are just as much
entitled TO treatment as the INDECENT
Insane. we also declare that il Is lust
as important to provide proper treat
ment for persons afflicted with this
disease as it Is to make appropriations
for our advanced schools Health il
more important than alteration for
the latter Is useless without a SOUND
body. We favor the establishment o;
