Want Chdn6e
Made In Reno
Train Time

Fifty representative citizens of
Gardnerville and the Reno CONNER
cial club have petitioned the Nevada
Railroad commission to have the mo-
tor train leave Reno, on it's return
trip to Carson City, Minden and Card
nerville, at 3 p. m., instead of ! p. III.
as at present says the Appeal.
The people of Gardnervile COM
plain that atp resent the motor train
reaches Minden at Ais D. m. where
1t waits until o'clock before depart
ing and that on arrival at Carson
there is a further wait approximating
an hour before connection can be
made with the evening passenger
train for Reno, from which it is reas-
oned that If this time is taken up at
Reno a much better business day for
the people from Gardnerville sec
tion is permitted, and at the same
time furnishes better train connec-
tions to the travelling public than at
present.
The Reno Commercial club COM
plains that at the present time the
motor train leaves Reno at l D. m.
and the mixed train at 1:3O, and that
II the leaving time of the motor is
set back until 3 p. M. the service out
of Reno will be improved.
Should this change be provided the
motor will leave Reno at p. m.
and arrive nCarson at 4. p. m. and at
Minden 40 minutes later.
The matter is under investigation
by the commission and II it appears
that the change will be beneficial and
satisfactory to the public at large it
will be authorized.
In this Connection 1t is understood
that Vice-President and General
Manager A. M. Ardery has signified
his desire to meet the wishes of the
travelling public, If after investigation
by the commission it is shown that
a majority of the people served by
said train desire the change.

MISS KATHERINE MILLS
APPEALS TO WORKERS ON
BEHALF OF EQUAL VOTE

Miss Katherine B. Mills, of New
York City, special representative OF
the National Woman's Suffrage .Asso
citation, is presenting the appeal for
equal suffrage for wonderland pre-
senting it to the workers of Wheeling
men and women.
Equal suffrage is not a new idea
here, and there has been ,aAmoVement
in existence here for years working
faithfully and diligently toward tina.
end, but this is the first time the ap-
ueal has been made so directly to
the workers.
At last Sundays meeting of the
Ohio Valley Trades and Labor Assem-
bly, Miss Mills was given the floor
and made most impressive presenta-
ton of the case for woman suffrage
Her talk was brief, since she realized
that there was an unusual anout ot
business before the delegates. but
every sentence counted.
Il have sat heret during the after
noon, SHE said, "and heard men say
over and over Our hands are tied.
That's exactly the plant of we women
Our hands are tied There are many
things we could do for you, helping
you to make toward better living and
working conditions, but our hands are
tied"
She brought much applause by her
sallies and strongly emphasized
points, and if there was a delegate
previously unopposed to suffage, she
surely converted him.
Miss Mills has been visiting the vari-
Gus unions in the evenings and hold
ing shop and factory meetings at
noon. In both branches of her work
she has been most successful, and is
arousing from their lethargy those
whose numbers are necessary to make
equal suffrage effective in West vir-

Belmont Assembly
Has Long Session

A. lengthy session OF the Belmont
Central Trades and Labor Assembly
in the Heinlein building, Bridgeport
February s, was chiefly devoted to a
, consideration of the reviving of the
Building Association. =
A Communication from the Amefi
can Federation of Labor was endorsed
asking for the appropriation of money
sufficient to increase the pay of jani-
tors nj public schools in the District
~ eR1mbia SiIniiars action was tax.
en- with regard to a request to ask
the Ohio representatives in Congress
to support the present seamen's law.
The International Wood Carvers As
sociation asked the Assembly to aid
in supressing the foisting on the pub
lie of pressed work in dishonest imi-
tation Of solid wood carving.
The Union Label Trades Depart
ment of the American Federation of
Labor had a request before the body
asking for support for Senate Bill 901,
introduced by Booher of Missouri in
the House of Representatives as
House Bill No. 6871; to prevent the
interstate shipment Of goods manufac-
tured by contract convict labor.
Union made maps are demanded in
letter sent out by the A. F. of L.
and endorsed by the Belmont body.
The letter calls attention to the fact
that the close of the European war
will mean new school maps, and that
unionists everywhere should see that
such maps are made under fair condi-
lions. Particular attention is called
to the fact that the Rand McNally
Aaps are produced under unfair con-
ditions.

INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS
COMMITTEE HAS PLANS

The Ohio County Industrial Rela-
lions Committee is considering plans
for making the work effective locally.
These plans are still tentative, but
they are being worked out, and it is
believed that they will soon be in
shape for consideration at a general
meeting which will be called.
Briefly, it seems to be the idea to
create a general membership commit
tee, with members throughout the
county, not confined to members of
trade unions, but open to all who are
in general sympathy with the work
of the trade unions ALI will be mem
bers, Of the general committee, and
from among them will be selected one
member from each magisterial district
and, perhaps, from each language
group, and these will form an execu-
tive committee. Should it be posi-
Bile through the growth Of member
ship, it will be the hope to have pre-
cinct chafrmen, so that direct pres
sure can he, brought to bear political
ly in the interests of progressive legis-
lation-
A public meeting is expected to be
announced in the near future.
