MISS WILSON
DELAYS VISIT
FOR One WEEK

Word has been received that MISS
Jessie Wilson, daughter of President
elect Wilson, will be unable to come
20 Wilmington to make her address
relative to the Ten-Hour Law for Wo-
men, until next Saturday, February
%, although it was at first thought
that she would be here tomorrow
evening. The place of meeting VIII
be arranged by the Public Opinion
Committee, which is making elaborate
preparations for the meeting and for
her entertainment A committee
meeting will be held in the Ten-Hour
Law Office, at 2 O'Clock this afternoon.
The committee TO serve is composed
of the Rev. Charles l.. Candee, chair
man. and the Revs. r. L. Jackson,
Thomas p. Holloway. l.. Il. Poole,
Richard S Monck, Mrs A. ID. Warner,
Mrs. Elizabeth G. Robinson, Miss
Alice Smythe. Miss Anna Bird and
Mrs. Charles f. Curley.
Doubtless one reason why Miss Will
son is such an earnest advocate OF
the Ten-Hour Law comes from the
fact that it is one Of the progressive
measures upon which her father
Governor Wilson, won his reputation
as Governor of New Jersey. Governor
Wilson was deeply interested in and
promoted the passage OF the Ten-HouI
Law Bill in New Jersey a year ago.

PRICE LIMIT
IS Off POWDER
Senate Committee Drops Fig
ure as Provided for by
House

WASHINGTON, Feb, 14.-Another
victory for the powder industry has
been won in the military committee
of the Senate, which has just repOrt-
ed the military appropriation bill,
A provision inserted by the House
in this bill, placing a limit upon the
price the government may pay eOm-
panies for power, was stricken out
by the committee. Senator dupont Is
the chairman of the committee.
The reason the House placed q
limitation upon this price was that
the House committee believed it had
been clearly shown that tho powder
companies have been receiving ex-
orbitant prices for powder for a long
series OF years.
Hearings upon the subject we're held
and witnesses representing tho navy
department testified that department
is now making the same grade OF
powder which is bought from the
companies at a cost Of little more
than 80 cents a pound. The manu-
facture OF powder by the navy is still
an infant industry.
For this grade OF powder the gov
ernment has been paying 60 cents a
pound. or about twice as much as Il
cost the navy department TO manu-
facture It.
In consequence OF these disclosures
the House committee decided that thi
government should be able to buy or
dinance powder at SO cents pound
without imposing any hardship upon
the companies and therefore fixed that
price rs the limit the government
should be permitted to pay.
When the bill went TO the Senate
and was referred there to the com
mittee, Of which Senator DUPONT il
chairman, the limitation was remov-
