by letter and in person. has urged upon
these firms the claims of such a confer
ence. The objection to it seems to be
not SO much, IL at all, the question of
reduction of hours, or an increase Of
wages or any other of the demands of
the strikers, as theft unwillingness to
do anything that would in any way in
volve the recognition of the strikers in
their collective capacity, that Is, of the
United Garment Workers of America, or
of the local unions of the same.
Fifth-Your committees, after the most
earnest consideration Of the questions in-
VOWED in this strike. and with an earnest
effort to keep its sympathies wide open
towards all our fellow citizens yitally
concerned in this strike, have come to
the conclusion that the only hope for
permanent and satisfactory peace In the
garment industry lies in the direction of
such a conference as that we nave pro,
posed. If the parties to this strike VIII
agree to meet together and discuss their
differences, and If whep they do SO they
can agree upon some such Instrument
as the protocol of peace in the dress and
waist industry, 1t will be for the best
interests of all those concerned and OF
this whole community. We cannot but
believe that the position of any employer
of labor at this crisis In the industrial
life of our nation. who refuses to SIT
down and reason with the rational repre-
sentatives of labor in its collective ca
pacity, is unbusinesslike, unstatesmanlike
and untenable.
Sixth-We desire to commend most
heartily the public spirit of our fellow
citizen Everett Colby, esq, for the in
terest he has taken in this strike which
SO seriously affects the life OF our city.
Signed, Mercer G. Johnston, chairman;
W. j. d Dawso1 dobG McI,o% SeTner's SOLO
The situation in the local garment
workers strike, as CLEANED from
opinions expressed by representatives
on both sides of the question, is not
materially changed and matters are
moving very slowly. If at all.
Another effort to settle with one of
the manufacturers, McGregor & Co,
was made yesterday afternoon. The
contractors met with union represent
tatives in the parish hall of the First
Presbyterian Church, where an agree
ment was drawn up, subject to the
vote of the shop workers.
The agreement stipulated a fifty
hour week, financial settlement with
the employees reinstatement of the
former help, no discrimination, prefer
ence to union men, and on the latter's
part the agreement TO supply such
help as needed.
Abraham Schneider, Albert Boczar,
julius Masariello and ]. Berger signed
the agreement. They represent three
shops, Boczar and Masariello being in
partnership. While the Rev. Coltorti
stated that he believed this agree
ment would be acceptable to the
strikers, Abraham Stiglitz, the local
leader, was pessimistic, and during
the evening it was learned that there
was not much hope that the agree
ment would be accepted.

Traction Company for injuries re-
ceived by her in a collision.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 26.-Lost

stars, camping wherever night over

Bellinger arrived here, after enough
experience to relate to satisfy an or
binary young woman for life.
But Miss Marguerite Bellinger is

The girl watched the docks of San

breast the white poodle which had
been the only companion for her and
her mother during days at a time.
Beside her stood 6-year-old Louise
Speeman, a maid born in Samoa, who
never saw a white man until three
weeks ago and didn't vet believe that
the ship moved. She thought it was
the ocean moving out from under the
Sonoma's keel. She, too, was wonder
ing with big eyes at San Francisco.
Just think, they are all civilized,
just like us!" laughed Miss Bellinger
to the Samoan child, whose aunt.

The teaching of sex hygiene in the
public schools, while not universally
regarded with favor by teachers. was

and one that must be treated tact
fully. Personal hygiene, the report
said, is taught from the kindergar-
ten to the high school by the regular
teacher at all times. Mrs. Read con-
cluded with the request that next
