Tor the women OF the United States by

ers In the movement. Wilson was
urged to recommend TO the special SEES
sion Of congress action on such an
amendment. but he told'h visitors
he had not made up his mind on the
suffrage question.
THE president was courteous and
sympathetic throughout, said Mrs.
Harper OF New York He said there
were many pressing questions TO come
up al the extra session and that II he
did not recommend action on the
question he did not want II to be
taken as an indication OF his general
attitude, as he was not committing
himself yet"
Other members OF the party said the
president viewed the woman suffrage
idea as a question Of great practical
Importance There were indications,
they said, that the president was open
minded on the subject,
The committee had half hour OF

Mrs Harper reminded the president
that Miss Susan -. Anthony pleaded
with Mr.. Roosevelt shortly after he
took Office, and during his admins

GARMENT STRIKE SETTLED
Boston Workers Declare They Have
won Complete Victory

Boston, March II. The strike Of
the 5000 workers on ladies' garments
which has been on for about two
weeks, was settled Saturday evening
The employers agreed to grant the
workers an increase in wages and
certain betterments Of working condi-
tons.
The result is victory for the strik-
ers, but while the manufacturers have
agreed to increase the wages of the
employees the raise in pay is not as
large as anticipated by the union
leaders. The increase granted
amounts to less than 10 percent in
the majority OF cases.
Nevertheless, the strikers are OF
the opinion, In the main, that they
have won a complete victory, Most
OF them returned to work this morn
ing.
