railroad labor unions whose member

operating the trains of the United
States met here today to discuss a
projected general movement for high
er wages and more liberal working
conditions. The meeting which open
ed today is expected to prove the
most important employees gathering
since railroad men unionized. The
four organizations have member
ship of approximately 10000 and in.
clude locomotive engineers, railway

organization affected will be notified

The matter will then be discussed in
the various locals of the four organi-
cations and steps taken to abrogate
existing contracts upon thirty day

WELFARE WORK" HELPS
INDUSTRIAL SITUATION

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15.-
Welfare work" has not kept down
the level Of wages in the Industrial
plants where it has been introduced,
according to a bureau of labor re-
port just issued by DR.. Elizabeth
Lewis Otey. 1t has, however, acted
as a brake against strikes and other
expressions of discomfort on the part
of the employees. 1t has greatly
strengthened the influence Of the fac
tory manager over the factory hands.
1t appeals to the underpaid and illit-
crate class Of workers whose graft
tude for the parks, rest rooms. din
ing rooms, baths, or other special
considerations is shown in loyalty to
the employer.
DR.. Otey defends the welfare sys-
TEN as Setting higher standard Of
comfort for the average employe, to
which all industrial plants will grad
ually be brought, by pressure of pub
lie opinion or by legislation" She
reasons that since welfare work has
proven good business" for some of
those employees who have tried it, the
public has right to demand that all
employers adopt its essential stand
ards.
The report deals with SO of the
largest plants in which welfare work
has been organized These include
various metal, textile and food fac
tories. stores, hotels and public utili-
ties. Mutual benefit societies, pen
sion funds, libraries, outing clubs
savings banks, medical service and
other items are illustrated. In each
instance the employees appear to have
approved the scheme.
Along with the welfare work, how
ever" remarks DR.. Otey, "the en-
ployer might show further recogni-
ton of his obligations to society by
trying to crystalize the higher stand
ards in his own mill or factory thru
legal enactment, and not by opposing
the passage of laws which tend to &C.
cure these benefits for all working
men,"

TOKYO, April 15. - The Japanese cabinet reported to the Emperor this morning that the attitude of Presi- dent Woodrow Wilson on the question of the California anti-alien legisla' ton made it necessary that a test case be brought in the United States Supreme Court that it might be shown that Japanese are not of Mongolian origin. President Wilson, it was said, has refused to intercede with the Cal ifornians to defeat the bill that will make it unlawful for aliens to own property in that State, and, if Japanese desire to own property there. it will become necessary for them to become citizens of the United States. As the naturalization laws of that country have been interpreted in the past, Japanese have been eX- cluded with Mongolians from becom- ing citizens. Japanese diplomats have contended that they are not Mongol- ians. President Wilson has said that that is a matter for the courts rather

THANKS
 TO THE EMPIRE

The enterprise of the Daily Empire in getting the news three times a day of the All-Alaska Sweepstakes dog race at Nome has appealed to a former resident of that city. Practically all of the dog race dispatches received at Juneau came to the Empire. For the convenience of the Nome people and others interested in the city the dis patches were made public at once up- on their arrival.
 The letter from the former Nomeite, was dated at Juneau yesterday, and is as follows:
 ITO the Editor: The citizens of Nome temporarily in Juneau and the citizens of Juneau who formerly re- sided at Nome feel very kindly to- ward the Daily Empire for the enter prise it has displayed in getting early and reliable news of the Nome dog race You are making a good paper, taking a live interest in all Alaskan matters. and are deserving of the sue cess that seems to be coming your way. Personally. l thank you for your enterprise.

HOUSE SWINGS AXE
 ON TWO SENATE BILLS

Senator Roden's bill, providing an eight-hour day for women. received it's death blow in the House this af- ternoon. The deed was done by sus- taining the committee report that it do not pass. Those voting to sustain the committee were Driscon, Ingersoll, Jones, Kelly, Kennedy, Shoup, Stub bins, and Ceilings; against, Aldrich, Boyle, Burns. Gaffney, Gray, Ingram. and Svindseth-S to '. And now the bill is dead.
 The House continued to swing the cleaver and landed effectually on the neck of Senator Bruner's bill, provid- ing for a code revision commission. This bill has been resurrected through parliamentary action and was up for consideration. Several times Shoup tried to save it from destruction but the temper of the Hous was set to kill it and they did it by vote of g to 5.
