DOMINANT WISH OF
MARGARET WILSON
Presidents Daughter Thinks Every
Schoolhouse in the Land Should
Be a Social Center.

Miss Margaret Wilson has a desire. 1t
is to have every schoolhouse in the land
a social center, where all the people
may meet on equal footing. To accom-
plish this she has given freely Of her
time, her energy. and her talent. She
has remarkable voice
At a dance given in the Greenwich VIII
Iage School Center in Public School Al,
Manhattan, New York City, which is
the model social center of the United
States. she danced with the ''rabble,
says the Philadelphia Record.
where She Met the "RnbbIe.'
Greenwich Village is unlike any other
place you can imagine. It was once the
abode of the fashionable of the town
the home Of such notable historical
characters as Aaron Burr. 1t was lit
tie aggregation of substantial brick and
colonial houses with gently curving
streets and open spaces and tree-planted
parks.
In the growth of the great city the
splendor of Greenwich Village has been
largely swept away. Busy factories and
great stores and warehouses have hem
med it in and the sound of elevated
trains hum drowsily through its streets
There are still a dozen or more houses
reminiscent of its former glory The
wealthy spinster member of one Of the
Oldest and proudest families of old New
York has a delightful house there.
Artists. musicians, professional women,
lawyers, writer's, social workers, live
there-and would live nowhere else.
Miss Wilson had danced with young
chap named Hay, who intends studying
for the priesthood.
She was chosen by the mother of the
young man as the partner she wished
for her son. Mrs. Hay kept a restaurant
in Greenwich Village. 1t had a saloon
bar in front. 1t was a paying business
enterprise.
Thought He Wns "KiddinE."
Mrs. Hay was always careful about
their associates. That explained her
presence at the dance. She went to see
if it was the proper place for her chill
dren.
She had seated herself and looked
around bit when her eye was attract
ed by Miss Wilson. She asked one Of
the officials TO introduce my son to the
girl in the pretty dress so he can dance
with her."
As young Hay and Miss Wilson danced

RELIEF FUND IS
MADE AVAIvABLE
State Department Gables Part
of Federal Appropriation
to Ambassador Page.

Washington, Aug. 6.-Three hundred
thousand dollars in American gold is
available in London today for the re-
| lief of distressed Americans. This
amount was cabled to Ambassador
Page by the state department.
II possible, portions of this amount
will be sent to Paris, Berlin and other
European capitals.
The balance of the $2,50O,00 unani-
mously appropriated by congress will
be conveyed today on the armored
cruiser Tennessee, used as an aeronau-
tic training ship, to Europe.
In addition the Tennessee will con-
vey S5,000,OOO confided to it by New
York banks for the purpose of protect
ing their letters of credit. 1t may also
convey gold received from firms or
private individuals for the relief of
the distressed.
According to official estimates there
are at least $4,000 American travel
ers in Europe. These are being
promptly located by the state depart
ment through its representatives
Many of the persons abroad care

Of their trip and the amount required
10 carry out the itinerary determined
upon. Their letters OF credit, express
checks and checks on American banks
are no longer being honored. A large
number of Americans are out of funds
or unable to get any. The cost of food
has advanced and there is grave dan
ger that many Americans will suf-
fer. 1t is for this reason that this
government is acting with such ra-
pidity.
Secretary Bryan said yesterday that
his department has accepted $4,000
for transmission to relatives and
friends abroad. 1t is embarrassing to
that department, however, to accept
money. So at a conference Of the sec
retaries of state, treasury and war.
1t was decided that only sub-treasur-
ers at Chicago and other cities should
receive deposits for the benefit of
American travellers.
Negotiations were begun for the
chartering of several big Italian steam
ships which, together with 80 Ameri-
can vessels ordinarily used In the

SENATE PASSES I
The TRADE BILL
Provides for a Commission Of
Five to Prevent Unfair Com
petition in Business.
WAS URGED BY WILSON
Measure Is More Radical Than House
Bill and Conference May
Tone II Down.

Washington, Aug. 6.-The interstate
trade commission bill declaring I'M
lawful all unfair competition and au-s
thorizing a commission Of five to SUI
pervise "big business" was passed
yesterday by the senate by vote OF
| 50 to 16.
The senate bill is different from the
bill which passed the house, being far
more radical and far-reaching. Many
conference changes in the bill as a.
nally agreed to are predicted.
The interstate trade commission IS
the first antitrust legislation bill de-
sired by the president to be enacted
at this session and in the heavy vote
given the bill the president scored.
Immediately after the passage Of
the bill Senator Kern, democratic
leader, gave notice that the Clayton
bill, supplementing the Sherman act.
would be made the unfinished business
until a vote could be had on it. The
republican members offered no objec-
tions. Following action on the Clay
ton bill the senate will take up the
stocks and bonds bill.
Amendments Are Made.
Important amendments made to the
bill were by Senator Salisbury of Del
aware, requiring all interstate corpor-
atoms with a capital bonded indebt-
edness, undivided profits and surplus
of $5,000,000 or more, to designate
within 80 days after the signing of the
bill an agent in Washington upon
whom all orders and notices of tho
commission could be served. Another
was by Senator Pomerene of Ohio,
providing a court review of orders of
the commission on appeal by the cor
poration or business concern affected
Attempts to soften the declaration
of the bill that unfair competition in
commerce is hereby declared unlaW-
full were voted down. The bill directs
the commission to prevent corpora
lions from using unfair methods of
competition When it shall have rea-
son to believe that any corporation is
using any unfair methods it shall
force the corporation to show cause
why an order shall not be issued re-
straining or prohibiting such methods
and enforce compliance throgh the dis
trict courts.
viii Have Five Members
The commission as provided by the
senate bill is to consist of five mem
bers, each of whom shall receive
$4,000 salary and serve, after organ
ization of the first body, for terms Of
seven years. 1t will have power to
investigate the organization, condition,
conduct and management of all cor
porations in relation 70 their own and
other corporation business, to require
regular reports from such corporations
and business concerns, and to make
public such acts of the corporations as
it may think advisable to check evils
in the business world.
The commission is authorized also
to act as master in chancery for the
courts where orders have been issued
against corporations or where dissolu-
ton has been ordered, and it is to re-
port its recommendations to the attor-
ney general.
