LOW PAY FOR WOMEN
In STORES DEPLORED
Miss Constance Leupp Also DISGUISE.
Eight-hour Bill in
Address.

Conditions in Washington stores and
Iaundries where women are employed
were described last night at All Souls
Church by Miss Constance Leupp, presi-
dent OF the District Consumers League.
in an address on THE Eight-Hour Bill
for Women" The meeting was held un-
der the auspices of the Liberal Religious
Union of the church.
Wages in some Washington department
stores. Miss Leupp said. are lower, rela-
lively, than those Of most cities of this
country. She described the efforts to
have the eight-hour bill passed by Con-
gress, and said that employees prove
much more efficient when working on an
eight-hour scale than when working
longer.
She urged that Washington be made
the sixth of the States and Territories
of the United States to pass eight-hour
laws for women. She said that any one
knows a member of Congress could help
the bill by urging that it be passed. The
bill is now before the, House. 1t has
passed the Senate.

SCHOOLS GIVING PAGAN
EDUCATION, SAYS PASTOR
"No Room for Christ" Says Rev.
DR.. Granger, "In Present
System"

Danger that schools are giving OF
will give pagan" educations was
claimed in a sermon last night by Rev
DIR. C. Everest Granger. pastor of Gun
ton Temple Memorial Presbyterian
Church. Rev. DIR. Granger spoke on
No Room in the Inn.
NO room for Christi" he said. lis
this the verdict of our educational sys-
tenn? There is grave danger that our
State institutions Of learning are CIV
ing TO our youth what is practically a
pagan education. We want no sectari-
anism in our public schools and col
leges, but we need an open Bible as
we need nothing else.
The law of Moses Is a substantial
and worthy foundation for the govern
ment of nations. A nation cannot do
better than adhere TO it. But this law
must be interpreted in the spirit of
Jesus. A great change has been
wrought among the nations, and the
spirit has come into the affairs OF civil
lied government.
But there still is room for improve
ment. So long as powerful nations op-
press and corner weaker nations, so
long as civilized governments foster an
opium traffic TO the detriment of other
peoples, so long as civilized govern
ments permit drugs and strong drink.
So long as diplomacy is interpreted
only by cunning, trickery. and decep-
tiOn, and so long as the last ounce Of
oppression is practiced at home or
abroad, we cannot boast that Christ
has full power in the affairs OF civil
ICED government.
There is still much that is wrong
in the social system. That poverty
should exist. that children should be
hungry and cold and exposed to dis
ease and crime that vice is the most
profitable of trades-that these things
be-is commentary enough on the So
cial system"

WILLIAMS STAND RESENTED.
PRESIDENT May settle Question o
National Guard Work,

May an employe OF the United States
Treasury Department combine his duties
as such with national guard service or
must he choose between the two and
either get OUT of the government de-
partment or quit the militia work?
This question is likely to be brought to
the attention of President Wilson with
request for a definite answer, as the
result of the resignation of Thomas r.
Clark, employe of the Treasury Depart
ment, upon receiving a statement from
John S. Williams, Assistant Secretary OF
the Treasury, to the effect that time
taken from the Treasury Department
work for national guard service may be
held against a clerks record.
Mr.. Williams attitude in the matter
is the cause of resentment on the part
Of militia officers, who say it is in con-
trast with the national endeavors to
build up an efficient citizen soldiery.

Lighthouse Service Reports,

Lighthouse Service Reports.
Until recently it has been necessary to
procure all the cut glass lenses used in
the lighthouse service abroad according
to the annual report Of the service, but
recently American manufacturers have
produced lenses which are equal to
those purchased abroad, having also
the important features that the prisms
are formed by machines instead Of by
hand, thereby making the parts inter-
changeable.
The report says that the reorganiza-
ton of the lighthouse service under the
provisions of the act of Congress ap-
proved June IS, 1870 was entirely COM
pieted during the early part of the fiscal
year 1913, and that all of the Lighthouse
districts, with the exception OF the three
river districts, are now in charge Of
civilian inspectors.
The appropriation for the mainte-
nance of the lighthouse service for the
fiscal year 1914 are $5071, $50; being s34.-
SO in excess of those for the preceding
fiscal year. In addition, there are ap-
propriatians Of $722,eOO for special works
such as new lighthouses and vessels.
