OPPOSE SAVIOUR WEEK
Manufacturers Say They Could Con.
cede SO Hours.

Montpelier, Nov. 1.-THE manu-.
ing the hours of women and children
in factories was told this afternoon
at hearing before the joint commit
tee on immigration and labor. A
delegation of Burlington manufacture
ers, including Ex-Governor u. A.
Woodbury., Joseph A. Baker OF FAN
River, treasurer of the Chace mills.
and r. A. Cooke or Burlington, rep.
rese1ting the Queen City cotton mills,
George E. Whitney, representing the
American Wooden companys mills,
Winooski and Charles S. Lord of the
Burlington FIGURING company pre-
scented the consequences of such leg
islation to manufacturing business in
Vermont as they see them.
The gist of the arguments present
ed by the employers was that while
they were ready and willing to come
down to a 58-hour week basis for
the women and boys in their employ
they could not undergo such radical
cutting down of hours as change to
81 hours week would imply. They
argued that Vermont manufactures
already labor under tremendous
handicap on account of high freight
expense and therefore could not
stand added strain without reducing
wges. They said that the change
was too great a jump to be effected
at one time, that other States had
come down by degrees, so that it
took 20 years in Massachusetts to
bring about this change which Yer
mont was thinking of accomplishing
In a minute. They asserted that il
would cut their investment by 10 per
cent. and would retard the industrial
development of Vermont
For the other side Judge Mower
questioned the speakers to bring out
the fact that human consideration
tended to make the change essential.
that more favorable labor conditions
in Vermont would tend to bring more
and better laDorers into the State and
benefit the employers in that way.
and that by the speeding up of ma
chinery, made possible by less fati.
gued help, the loss to them could be
greatly reduced. This last the en-
ployers denied, claiming that their
machines were already being run at
the maximum of speed. Among 9th.
ers speaking in favor of the bill were
the Rev. c. C. Wilson of Burlington
and March c. Wilson of Randolph.
After the hearing on the Mower
bill, number of the merchants ap-
peared against the Howley bill which
extends the 54-hour rule to mercan-
tile establishments.

Many Felt and Burlap

The first of the monthly sanitary in
spections of the government deyart-
ments by the Public Health and Marine
Hospital surgeons is now under way.
Assistant Surgeon Warren made the
rounds of the Treasury Department
yesterday and caused considerable dis
tress in many quarters. He pried into
every nook and Granny of the depart-
ment, looking after sanitation and ven
tilation.
In his rounds he encountered many
burlap and felt screens. These met
with an immediate frown of disappro-
baton. and they were ordered removed.
One such screen was found in the Of
flee of Chief Will<ie. Behind II was
working one Of the employees Of the
office. who is suffering with lumbago.
This employe took refuge behind the
screen to keep away from all possible
drafts and to keep out as much as pos
sible the damp air blowing in the open
windows and across the desk Of the

When the screen was torn away and
ordered removed, this employe object

Surgeon Warren to leave the screen
until he could substitute glass one.

DISTRICT TO PAY
HALF ON ARMORY
IS SENATE'S PLAN
Huge Structure to Be Suit
able for Inaugural Balls
and Conventions.

So amended that one-half the cost of
the structure will fall upon the Dis
trict, the Senate has passed the bill pro-
yiding for the erection of al armory
for the Dlstrict National Guard to cost
not to exceed s1.75O,0oO. The armory
floor will be broad enough to accommo-
date inaugural balls, and the structure
will house the Largest conventions.
AS reported the bill provided that the
Federal Government should supply the
funds, ard that $4,000 should be i'm
mediately available for plans and
foundations.
On motion of Senator Culbertson
who feared that the preliminary appro-
priation might all be spent for plans
the money Immediately available will
be only s25.oCo.
Senator Hoke Smith objected that the
United States did not build armorirs
elsewhere. and as a result the bill wal
amended to force the District to should
er half Of the burden.
Senator Gallinger laid great stress or
the need for the building, saying thai
the inaugural balls In the Pension OF
fice cost about $4,000 each. The new
armory, designed to be built after the
Doric order, instead of the battlemertCt
plan Of the usual armorY. will b.
erected in the northern part of the
space between B street north and j
street south and between Twelfth ailc
Fourteenth streets.
