of Mr.. Bird and his associates.
In a closing sentence the eminent Pro

been for Weeks, is now for Hughes and
will be for Roosevelt Only with the
historical phase Of this picture are we
concerned. 1t is true that at one time
we deemed it fitting as part of a free
and open convention, in which the dele
gates from all sections in conference with
their associates would make the eventual
choice. that the various states should
present their several possibilities. We
accordingly recommended that Massachu

handsome compliment.
The time, however, came in the evou.

with actual results in view, and then We
made clear our own desire that Mr.
Hughes should be asked to serve as the
party's standard bearer. And by tina

WHAT'S THE MATTER, DOES THE
REAL TRUTH HURT?
The National Association of Gar
ment Manufacturers have pulled a
joke. Right in the midst of a gar
ment workers strike in Chicago be-
cause of intolerable working cOndi-
lions, they went on record in drastic
protest against the way naughty
moving picture companies portray
factory scenes, They called it ''Un-
truthful and unaUthentic represen-
tation of conditions in factories"
They said the pictures are unfair to
the working girls and their employ
ers.
No one has forgotten the stories
of factory conditions revealed dur
ing the last garment strike'when girls
of tender years told with little emo
ton that if they expected to live on
what the clothing bosses paid they
knew they would eventually have to
go to the street and they knew that
there were girls so making up the,
ullGIGuCC DCJ"CCu LLC SJdL NdIlOu
wages the clothing barOns paid and
what it cost to live.
In the busy season I get as much
as Sc a week" one garment worker
told a Day Book reporter In the
slack season I get So and less. / pay
$4 a month for my room and I heat
water in the morning to make a cup
of tea and drink it without sugar or
milk and eat with it a couple of rolls
l buy at the bakery.
at lunch I eat bread and drink
water. At night I buy what I can
afford; sometimes a herring, some
bread and some more of the tea, and,
sometimes, when the season is busy, |
I eat in a restaurant and get a IS
cent meal"
you speak about being sick?"
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-05-26

plenty of eggs and milk or I would
be sick again.
when / got back to work at the
factory where I had been making Sc
a week told the boss what the doc
tor said about me needing good food
AT the end of the week he told me
wasn't doing as much work as I had
before l was sick, so he cut my
wages to "a a week.
Il live like she does. pay 81 a
month for my room and I drink tea
without milk and two rolls for my
breakfast The last milk I had was
in the resting home. Milk costs too
much. At my lunch I eat what the
doctor said I must not-sOmetimes a
piece of smoked fish and bread wash
ed down with water.
But at night I get a real meal
pay my landlady $3.50 a week for my
night meal and l get some soup and
a little meat and some potatoes"
That's why the garment. bosses
must have been joking when they OBJ
jeeted to moving pictures that show
the conditions of the girl in factories,
for the moving pictures never get
right down to the rock bottom Of
these conditions. It would trouble
the spectators too much.
