| Muscatine, Feb. s.-The homeless
man, q member Of society who has
been perplexing problem ever since
the first of the genus homo wrapped
his earthly belongings in a handker-
chief and essayed out upon an unfeel-
/ ing world to be parasite upon his
| fellow man, will be Officially given
, consideration by the United States
;; congress If steps launched here infor-
mally materialize.
! A suggestion to inaugurate ma
tional movement which will reduce
the number Of homeless men and to
alleviate existing conditions, was made
by Henry F. Giesser, president Of tho
I Muscatine Welfare Association, during
conference at the city hall. at which
! was heard Francis H. Mclean, one Of
the worlds greatest social workers.
THE homeless man has ever been
burning question" declared Mr.. Nc
Lean general secretary for the Ameri-
can Association of Societies for Organ
izing Charity, during a discussion Of
! that subject at the city hall meeting.
The discussion Of that phase of well
fare work was precipitated by local
officials Of the welfare association who
asked for a solution Of the difficult
problem from Mr.. Mclean. 1t was
during this discussion that the suSges-
ton was made by President Giessler
that a national movement be started
upon a concerted basis which would
regulate if not actually relieve the
present difficulty.
Plan Commission.
That the Muscatine Welfare Associa-
ton will inaugurate movement which
aims to have congress appoint a spe-
cial commission to determine steps
relative to the homeless man, was in
Dictated at this session. The promis-
cuous sending of such men from city
to city was deplored.
A meeting Of the board of directors
OF the welfare association will in all
probability be held within the immedi-
ate future when the problems will be
given definite consideration. Plans are
expected to be perfected which will re-
suit in bringing the question before
congress.
Local Solution Offered.
In offering a local solution for the
homeless man. Mr.. Mclean. during the
course of his remarks, suggested the
oPci e%SAoii Va o. hioAiIipsii ioo5Ai5 AouSS'
the rigid enforcement Of the vagrancy
law and the giving of work to all such
men who apply for assistance.
Mr.. Mclean also told of a bill pend
ing in the Iowa state legislature pro-
viding for state farm colony to which
men who have been convicted Of
crimes for short terms would be sent.
At such a farm colony, asserted Mr..
Mclean, men would be given outside
work to do which not only would be
conductive TO good health but which
would have a tendency to install a mo-
tive for continued work after the farm
colony term had expired.

about by the, war. the manufacturers
say. ,~s
Germany makes all the dyestuffs
| that are used In America. When the
war came the importing of those dyes
ceased. America has nothing to take
their place. The American dyes are
imperfect and inferior. Altho since
the war started manufacturers have
commissions and committees trying to
develop q grade of dyes equal or COM
parable with German dyestuffs, they
have been unsuccessful.
No Fast Colors.
The manufacturers will not guar
antee fast colors. AS result the suit
that was brown when purchased may
have a reddish tinge after weeks
wear.
The second reason for the situation
is explained in the manufacturers let
tiers as follows:
England and her colonies supplied
so per cent of, the worlds wool. Now
that supply is cut off. Furthermore,
the European nations are at war and
paying any price asked for wool for
their soldiers. America is exporting
wool for the first time in history, they
say.
Cotton, too. is higher in price be-
cause of the European demand.
Labor Is costing more. Weavers are
leaving the silk mills to secure the IS
and 81 wages per day in the munition
factories. The silk mills have to meet
the increased cost Of labor or operate
below normal.
The discussion Of the clothing stu
alton next fall consumed the entire
morning session Of the clothiers' con-
vention in the ball room Of the Cham
berlain. The subject was one of keen
est interest to the Iowa clothiers for
the reason that they must plan now
on their orders for next fall.
Even suspenders and belts will ad
vance in price, the makers say. Fifty
cent belts will cost 60 or IS cents.
