The WOmanS Club

The last meeting on the life and
work of the noted sculptor, Frederick
MacMonnies, led by Mrs. Johnson
Price was a delightful one. In fact,
each meeting since the first of October
has been made interesting by the
leaders, each one obtaining all the in
formation on her subject she could get
and lending her time and enthusiasm
unstintedly.
Mrs. james h. Kinnaird and Mrs.
Emma Higginbotham were each given
bunch Of bright red carnations by the
club last Friday. These flowers were
emblamstic of the bright spot they
have helped to make in our town by the
unselfish labor and thought they have
given the park.
Many club members have asked why

CONCERNING TAILORS-Geo. C.
Slater, general organizer of the Unit
ed Garment Workers of America,
pleads with the workers of the tailor
ing industry to go with the U. G. w.
of A. rather than with the Amalga-
mated. For instance, Mr.. Slater says
that the U. G. w. of A is affiliated
with the American Federation of La
Dor and therefore in case of strike
they will get its full support.
One thing which Mr.. Slater does
not state, but which can be under
stood, is that, in case the tailors go
on strike under the Amalgamated,
they will not get the support of the
A. F. of L. and organized labor in gen.
eraL Further, Mr.. Slater goes on to
tell that the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers are seeding and repudi-
ated element of the United Garment
Workers.
Whether the Amalgamated are
seeding element of the U. G w. do
not know, but that they are repudi-
ated do know. The question before
us is why the Amalgamated is repu-
dated by the U. G. w. of A? .
AS far as l can remember, there
was no Amalgamated when at the
last convention of the U. G. w. the
split came. The U. G. w. proved that
it was not an organization for the
workers, but for its officials. The
progressive delegates, who were
menace to Mr.. Richert's job as pres
ident of the United Garment Workers,
were repudiated. Let us not forget
that the workers are not organizing
to give a fat job to Mr.. Richert or any
others of his kind. The workers are
organizing to improve their own con-
ditions in the shops, which the work.
ers who organized the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers union understood.

spirit of democracy they do not want

the officials of the United Garment
Workers OF America.
How much the officials of the U. G..
w. did to organize the tailors can. be
proven by the fact that when the
Amalgamated started campaign to
organize the tailors they found thou
sands of them unorganized. Does
not this show that the U. G. w. of A.
like all other crafts under the A. F..
of L., is an organization for the Of
ficials and not for the workers? Now
let the workers consider whether they
shall go with an organization for
themselves or an organization for Of
ficials.
AS for myself, am not in the tai
loring industry and therefore am not
interested with whom the tailors shall
go. But let us be fair and tell the
truth, no matter whom it hurts.-Abe

FANATICISM.-

FANATICISM.-In The Day Book
appeared an article written by Mr..
Cochran with the claim that some let
tiers sent for publication on the relig-
ious issues in The Public Forum are
abusive and Incorporate, and also
that some of the contributors are
writing with the intention of hiding
behind The Day Book.
Regarding myself, will state that I
never did and never will hide behind
anything, especially where the truth
is concerned.
Any man who comes out in the
open with what he knows is just is
positively not hiding.
It is fanaticism that for centuries
has been hiding, and what some of
the writer's, l am sure, are trying to
do is to pull superstition out of it's
hiding place.
Prejudice, ignorance and supersti-
ton are three of the greatest obsta-
cles in the pathway of human adj
vance. We are living in an age of
transition. Old ideas and old beliefs
are fast crumbling and new ones are
taking their place. This is a very
critical age. Practically speaking,
we are at the parting of the ways.

GRIM COINCIDENCE.
Becker Was Seated in Electric Chair
Thirteen Years Ago.

Ossining, N. Y, July 31.-A grim
coincidence marked the day of Beck,
er's death. Thirteen years ago, while
on a visit here with some other New
York policemen, he made a tour OF
the prison. They passed through the
death chamber, and the guide asked
jokingly:
"Who'd like to try the chair?"
"Not me-" exclaimed aech of the
visitors promptly, excepting Becker
who said, "Why not? Pm not super,
stitious."
Becker not only sat in the chair
but insisted that he be strapped in
in fact, that everything be done just
as it would be to man sentenced to
die, up to the point of switching on
the deadly current. Becker was moi
affected in the slightest, and mis-
experience was standing joke

MAY IMPORT BEET SEED
Great Britain Will Permit Cargo To
Come From Germany

Washington, July Unconditional
assurances were received yesterday
from Great Britain that importation
of German sugar beet seed to plant
next years American crop will be
,Dermittedgas "a result of informal ne
gotiations by. the State Department.
Each shipment will be considered
by British officials on It's merits, and
will not be molested if three condl-
tons imposed by Great Britain are
met. 1t must be shown that the seed
is available for purchase only in Ger
many; shipments must be made from
neutral ports only, and there can be
no exchange of American commodi-
ties with the German expoYsr. Snip
ments that do not file all of these
conditions will be stopped under the
Order in Council.
The agreement is expected to give
American sugar beet farmers an ade-
quate supply of seed, which is pro-
duced only in Germany. Negotiations
with Germany, completed some time
ago, effected the release of a suffi-
cient amount to supply the American
demand. Efforts now will be made by
shippers to obtain shipping facilities
to bring in the cargoes and method
of certifcation by British consuls de-
yised to obtain examination of the
ships at sea or their detention in
British ports for that purpose.
