AIM To ELIMINATE
THE SLACK SEASON
MEMBERS OF FEDERAL COMMITS
SION HOPE TO ASSURE WORK
FOR ALL THE YEAR.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 17.-Cooper-
alton of the large industrial concerns
of the country so as to eliminate SLACK
and rush seasons is the object sought
by the federal industrial relations com
mittee in it's efforts to relieve the un.
employed. This is the latest phase OF
the Investigations of the commission
into the labor situation and is to be un'
dertaken at once according to Mrs. j.
Boardman Hartman, member OF the
commission. Cooperation among state
and private employment agencies
through a national clearing house is
another phase of the problem of dis.
tribution to which the commission will
direct it's attention. Mrs. Hartman an
nounced that officials Of the principal
cities throughout the country had Daen
asked to assist the commission in gath
ering data on unemployment.
"A simple illustration of what we
mean to do is the step taken by many
large coal dealers in establishing an
ice business in the summer so that
their men are provided with employ
ment throughout the whole twelve
months" said Mrs. Hartman.
Many practiced methods suggest
themselves. In New York some Of the
manufacturers have already made
progress toward continuous all the
year around operation where before
their plants were idle during certain
months

Washington, D. c., Feb. 1.-THE fact
that $3.50 persons who applied for citi-
zenship papers during the past year
We're refused because of ignorance
while 522 were denied on grounds of
immoral character. is a sign of the
"successful operation of the law in
the opinion of Richard X. Campbell,
commissioner CT naturalization, in his
annual report today to Secretary OF the
department of labor.
1T is true" he added, that they
show numerically but very small pro-
portion of the total denials, but the
mischiefs to be apprehended from low
moral standards or from ignorance or,
and consequent Indifference to our po-
litical institutions or ideals, are not to
be measured in figures: and that the
law has now proved adequate to detect
and exclude so few relatively is mat
ter for encouragement He declares,
however that Of the $3.50 who were de-
MED citizenship because OF incompe-
tency of witnesses and those refused
for other reasons. many might have
been rejected on grounds Of ignorance
or immoral character if some other
reason had not been found During
the year 1881 we're denied citizen

number rejected being almost twelve

GERMANS RAISE
MONEY FOR GAMES

Berlin. Germany. Feb. 17.-By con-
siderable majority the German inn
perial parliament today adopted an
appropriation of $4,000 for the Olym-
pic games to be held here in 1916
The appropriation was rejected by
the budget committee on January ID,
but the leaders, of the clerical party
today gave their followers freedom
of action in the affair and all but few
voted for the appropriation.
The socialists persisted in their pro-
test but it was pointed out that this
was more for tactful political reasons
that from hostility to the games.
