WILSON DECLINES TO
GUST A REPUBLICAN
President Elect Wants Efficiency in
Public Service in Preference to
Partisan Politics.

Trenton, n. J., jan 22.--Efficiency in
public service and the merit system
rather than partisan politics will be
the basis upon which president elect
Wilson will make his appointments to
office, he has indicated.
Governor Wilson had occasion to de-
clare himself in this connection when
a delegation of 80 men representing
various labor interests made an earnest
plea for the appointment of a Demo-
crat to fill the state commissionership
of labor now held by a Republican.
John T Crosgrove, a Democrat and
labor leader, was urged for the position
to succeed Col. Lewis T. Bryant, in
cumbent, who was appointed by a Re
publican governor
The president elect told the delega-
ton he recognized the force of their
argument that labor should be repre-
scented in the government by one who
knew its interests, but he saw no rea-
son to displace Col Bryant, who had
performed his duties faithfully and ef-
ficiently.
Incidentally Mr.. Wilson set forth that
he recognized the right of labor or
ganizations to be represented in the
government and indica ted IL the Gre
alton of a national department Of Ia
Dor he might follow that course
Governor Wilson today asked the
leaders to call a conference Of men,
bers of both houses for next Tuesday, at
which he will explain his program for
the session and urge particularly the
passage Of the corporation bills.

Men MANN RESPONSIBLE Eor Fashions hey Dsey SAYS GbZ Ds
CBy Gaby DesIys.)

= JST few days ago I read a criticism
in a newspaper which amused me
~ very much. It was about myself,
and deplored the fact that an article
had written on How to Be Pretty
should be accompanied by a photograph
of myself clothed in a fur coat with
hat covered with aigrettes.
The writer OF the notice seemed to
think was personally responsible for
the slaughter of the birds on my hat
and the killing of the animals whose
fur made up my coat.
As l have already said to you, it is
nv business to be pretty, to look as
Wen as possible; that is part of my
stock in trade. I lOathe being photo
graphed, but when 1 am before the
camera, as when L am on the stage, it is
my business to look as well as posi-
ble-beautiful, if you say so.
Now as to the hat and coat 1 wear
them because people admire them
Personally, I think ostrich feathers
quite as pretty as aigrettes, and L
much prefer them, but the popular
taste of the moment demands aiSrettes,
which means the slaughtering OF many
millions of lovely birds.
And who. pray, dicates the popular
Men, not women, I can assure you.
Nan Is Responsible.
It is men and not women who set the
fashions and who keep the taste in
clothes at an artificial and unnatural
point where we admire the plumes Of
slaughtered birds and the furs of dead
animals, and buy them to adOrn our
selves.
The minute men stop admiring these
things and don't look at the woman
who wears them, they will no longer
be worn.
Before one can stop the slaughter Of
the aigrette and other birds for mil
nnery purposes, one must stop the de-
sire in man to hunt and kill in we'll
stocked preserves where unfortunate
and nearly tanned animals are bred
for the killing.
I am not cOndoning the slaughter Of
the aigrette; 1 am merely showing you
another side of the picture.
I know a man who belongs TO the
anti bird killing society and is model
husband in every way. He boasts that
he likes to see his wife dress neat and
plain but I notice that he always
turns around to look at the women on
the streets whose frOckS are trimmed
with fur and whose hats stream plumes
and feathers.
It seems to me at these times that he
looks at his wife with disappointment,
though it would be against his best
theories to buy her clothes he admired
On others. Sometimes I wonder how
long she is going to stand it
For WhOme Do You Dresss
Women dress to Outrival each other
rivalry if the admiration Of men was
not the prize.
The Amazons were not fashionable
and cared very little about clothes
Men are to blame for the continued
slaughter of the aigrettes, for besides
doing the killing themselves. they ad-
mire the dead bird when it is perched
upon the head Of a woman If they
didn't admire them no more aigrettes
would be worn.
