WORKING GIRLS PLAN MEETING
TO DEMAND LIVING WAGE
The first step in the greatest or
ganizatiOn campaign ever entered
into by the garment workers of Chi
cago will be launched with a mass
meeting at the West Side Audito-
rum, Taylor st. and Racine aV., Mon
day evening.
Prominent labor leaders will ad-
dress lady garment workers of Chi
Cago. The people in the industry are
the worst paid of any of the big cit
les workers. Sol Friedman, general
organizer of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers union, who is
handling the campaign, has sent out
the following appeal:
"a special organizer was sent to
start a campaign in these industries
here in Chicago. Now, we come to
you, men and women, especially
women employed in these industries.
Don't you think that the women Of
Chicago are entitled to the same con-
ditions as the women working in the
eastern cities, such as New York,
Philadelphia, Boston and Bridgeport.
In the eastern cities the women in
these industries are working 49
hours per week. Here in Chicago
they Iare working 81 to 55 hours.
Minimum scales were established in
these cities where the trades are or
ganized for piece workers and week
workers, whereby the workers have
made a good living. Here in Chica-
go the workers can hardly make

living and are working 50 and 55
hours per week, because they are not
organized.
''In a union shop in height of the
season, when the workers are
obliged to work overtime, they re-
ceive double pay, while here they are
not gettingOit. In a union shop they
have a price committee and shop
chairman who settles the prices, and
if the price committee cannot agree
with the firm a representative Of the
union comes up to adjust the matter
satisfactorily to the workers. Here
the boss is the chairman, the fore
man the price committee, and you
must accept the prices that are Of
fered you by the firm or the foreman.
"In a union shop a worker cannot
be discharged without sufficient
couse. If a worker is discharged he
files a complaint with the union. The
complaint is investigated and if the
representative of the union finds out
that he or she was unjustly dis
charged, the worker is reinstated
with back pay. Here, you can be dis
charged, at any time without any
cause at all, and as an Individual you
haven't anybody to take your part.
I'VE believe that manufacturers
will come to you now, while the
movement is being made and prom
ise you many things, and even in
some cases the workers will be
raised. This will be only for a short
time, and then they will establish
the same or still worse conditions
than before"
Better wages and healthier condi-
tions will be demanded of the bosses.
If they are not granted, concerted
action b ythe workers will result.
Following speakers will address
the meeting: Clarence Darrow, John
Fitzpatrick, pres. Chi. Fed. of Labor;

BY making quick turn in the air
the diver will have greater height

an instant in the air will result in an
awkward splash. The way to over

PEBBLES FOR THIRST
Manchester Guardian)

What is the best thirst-quencher on
the march? Weak tea and sterilzed
water are the beverages officially rec
commended by a paternal Army Council
wherewith to fill water-bottles, though
the soldier is urged to drink as little
as possible lest he merely aggravate
this thirst. Most old soldiers have
their own pet theories on the matter
of thirst-quenchers, and offer them
freely land generally in vain) to re-
crafts.
One serbeant of wide experience is
ready to stake his reputation on the
soothing effect of a Tangerine or
ange; another will chew liquorice or
tobacco. But there is a reader and
cheaper way. A small, smooth stone
is selected and steadily sucked on the
march to keep the tongue moist. The
recent loss of a favorite pebble, his
friend on many a long march, has
greatly saddened a certain company
Sergeant Major and he still nurses the
firm and unsuitable conviction that it
was surreptitiously borrowed and
swallowed by a greedy platoon Ser
geant.

TELLS WHY sun Is HOT

The great German physicist Helm
holtz was the first to explain satisfac-
torily what keeps the sun hot The
sun is not burning; it is heated to the
blowing point, like a piece of white
hot iron. Helmholtz found that if we
suppose the sun to be contracting by
only $50 feet year we would receive
our present amount of heat. In other
words, says the Popular Science
Monthly, heat is being literally
squeezed out of the sun. Professor
NewcOmb estimated that when the
squeezing process has continued for
about 100000 years the sun will be
one half its present size.
