WORK OF COMMISSION
IS IN FOUR DIVISIONS
Federal Industrial Investiga.
ton Being Mapped Out on
Broad Scale.

The task of organizing the work OF the
new federal industrial commission was
begun in earnest today by several COM
mittees named by the commission last
night The committees met separately
this morning and the entire commission
went into session this afternoon to pass
on the various recommendations.
1t was decided to divide the work of
the commission into four general di-
visions as follows:
Public agencies. including government
bureaus and departments and state and
labor bureaus: private agencies, includ-
ing trade unions and employers asso-
Citations, skilled and semi-skilled laborers
including unrecognized'' labor organiza-
tons and all unorganized labor; and the
legal and legislative machinery, under
which head will come a study of the eff
feet of various laws. court decisions and
legislative enactments upon labor condi
tons generally.
Question of Location.
A committee. composed of Prof John
r. Commons, John B. Lennon and S.
Thruston Ballard, this morning took
up the question of deciding on a To-
mission. The committee considered it
best that the headquarters be in Wash
ington. because of the facilities Of
fered for study by the various govern
ment agencies. 1t is probable that the
Commerce building will be selected. d
room there being thought suitable
Another committee. headed by James
OConnell, took up the question of Sc
1ecting a staff of workers for the COM
mission. A number of applications have
already been considered, and it was
expected that selections would be de-
cided on at the meeting this afternoon.
y chief clerk and a number of expert
investigators are the principal en-
ployes to be chosen.
Commission Has Broad Scope.
Frank p. Walsh. chairman of the COM
mission. said today that the scope of the
law creating the commission is broad,
and that the organization is going about
its Investigations very carefully
In addition to the question of industrial
relations and unrest, the commission is
supposed to look into the problem of the
smuggling of Chinese laborers into this
country
Mrs. j. Borden Hartman, the wealthy
New York society woman, member of
the commission. displayed much interest
III the preparatory work today. and
shouldered her part of the burdens of
the commission. She was national chair
man OF the National Woman's Wilson

paign She sad last night that she eX-
pected the work of the commission to re-

demeanors. The grand jury recommend
ed to the court that the Sunday laws be
rigidly enforced and that the prosecuting
attorney look after all violations. II was
stated that ii is against the law TO sell ice
cream on Sunday, though delivery OF or
ders place. on Saturday is permitted.

Accident To An Aged Man.

Early Wednesday morning, while re-
turning from the pasture to get the cow,
-"Granpa" Needy slipped on small stone
and fell, breaking his left leg just below
the hip. A nearby neighbor, hearing his
calls for help, went TO his assistance and
soon had him removed to the home of his
son, Hol, with whom he lives. Doctors
Pendleton and Barnes were called and
set the broken limb and did all that could
be done to make the unfortunate man
comfortable. Mr.. Needy's accident is a
serious one, especially so since he has
reached the advanced age of 81 years,
and his recovery would necessarily be
very slow.-Pil0t Grove missouri Rec
ord.
The victim of this unfortunate accident
is George r. Needy, former resident OF
this vicinity and brother of our vener-
able fellow-townsman, H. Frank Needy.
His old friends in this neighborhood will
be very sorry to learn of his misfortune.
Mr.. Needy was here few years ago for
along visit to his relatives.

Among The Churches.

was organized at Weyer's Cave, and new
churches were built at that place, Edin-
burg and Middlebrook. The number OF
additions to the membership exceeded
those of former years, and the amounts
for benevolence and congregational ex-
penses amounted to almost $4,000. J.
H. Benchoff, president OF MasSanutten
Academy, reported the largest number OF
students in the fourteen years of its ex-
istence. The officers OF Chassis for the
ensuing year are: President, Rev. J. S.
Garrison, of Harrisonburg; vice-presi-
dent, Elder A. U. Wise, of Pleasant VAL
ley; stated clerk, Rev. T. K. Cromer, OF
Winchester; corresponding secretary,
Rev. Chas. F. Freeman, Of Shepherds

ford.

trial" II is said that the decision OF the
appeals committee was unanimous. The
effect of the decision is TO restore Mr..
Joyce to the membership and ministry Of
the church. The case will now have 10
be reopened and tried again it Mr.. Joyce
desires it.

HOW AN INDIANA GIRL
Got Strong and Well Again at
Small Cost.

Miss Alta Abel, of West Baden, Ind,
says: 81 was a complete wreck, al
ways tired, wornout and nervous. L
had to spend about one-third OF my
time in bed and my life was not worth
living. vinol, your delicious cod liver
and iron tonic, was recommended, and
It has done me more good than all the
medicine l ever took in my life. That
nervous and tired feeling is all gone.
I have gained in health, flesh and
strength, until I feel like another per-
SON."
Vinol is the most efficient strength
creator for such women. 1t Is the
medicinal elements of the Gods livers
contained in vinol, aided by the blood
making and strengthening properties
of tonic iron, which makes 1t so far
superior to all other tonics to build
up health and strength for weak,
tired, ailing women. 1t contains no
oil and has a delicious taste.
We give back your money IL Vinol
does not do al that We claim.

TARIFF ONLY On
HOUSE PROGRAM

WASHINGTON, March eff the
plans of Democratic members Of the
house, as communicated to President
Wilson by Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer today, are followed, tariff re-
vision will be the only business trans
acted during the extra session of con-
gress, which will begin on April 1.
President Wilson indicated in his in
augural speech that he considered cur
rency reform should also be taken up
during the extra session. Democrats in
the house do not consider this the best
method, and Representative Palmer
told the president that they believed
the house should practically cease work
a soon as it has revised the tariff and
while the senate considers the bill.
Thus the insertion of 'jokers" in the
bill would not provoke attention.
Representative Palmer indicated that
the president probably will lend this
plan his support and permit the ques-
ton Of currency reform 10 wait until
the regular session beginning next De-
cember.

Attorney General McReynolds
Will Endeavor to Reopen
Great Dissolution.
III
OiSPLEASED AT OIL
AND TOBACCO CASES
Seizure of Products of Viola
tors of the Sherman Law
Plan of Procedure.

WASHINGTON, March 6.--A pro-
posal to reopen the cases against the
Standard OIL and Tobacco trusts, it
was learned on good authority today,
will be one Of the first matters to como
under the consideration OF James Nc
Reynolds, the new attorney general,
acting under the ideas of President
Wilson.
McReynolds. it is understood, is dis
satisfied with the dissolution and reor-
ganization proceedings that took place
in both of the cases. He was a spe-
cial prosecutor in the tobacco case, and
did not agree with former Attorney
General Wickersham that the reorgan-
ization Of the tobacco company estab~
lished fair competition in the tobacco
business.
Mr.. McReynolds is a firm believer In
the worth of the corporation, but is Of
the opinion that criminal seizure sec
tions of the laws should be more thor
oughly enforced He believes that the
quickest way to suppress monopolistic
methods IS to seize under the Sherman
law. the goods of illegal combinations
in interstate commerce, and to press
for criminal sentences against trust
magnates.

Mrs. Mower had told her nine-year-
old son that she wished he were grown.
so that he might shoot his father.
Mrs. Mower retaliated in a cross bill
and answer in which she denied a
greater part of her husbands allega-
lions. She admitted to the court that
she did hit him on one occasion. but
that only after ne had labeled her with
an uncouth epithet.
In her answer she sought the custody
Of her children, temporary and perma-

to make a settlement. This agreement
was reached out of court and the law
