NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-.You
would hardly thing woman
could be so thing and yet show
no weakness. Blanca de Saulles
is over medium height and
weighs less than 100 pounds.
She has the blanched skin of
the woman born near the tropics.
Just now her great brown eyes
seem to look from caverns in a
face of unearthly whiteness.
Her haiar is beautiful-dark,
but no. of midnight blackness-
and she wears it parted and comb
ed back from her forehead in a
way that gives her the look of a
young madonna.
Indeed, young as she is, your
first impression is that of the
universal mother.
She only seems to feel when her
little son is mentioned. Two of
his pictures are in the room
where she is confined and one or
the other of them is seldom out
of her hands.
Her pale blue tub dress is OF

The lumbermen Jackpot
against the eight-hour day was
breaking to pieces rapidly in Ia
coma Wednesday, Immediately
following a bald, desperate at
tempt to fool the government into
believing the mills of Washington
were humming again on the 10
hour day basis.
The widest breach in the Lum-
bermens Protective association
combine, which has been showing
signs of falling apart, came We'd
nesday with the announcement
that the Defiance Lumber Co.
plant on the North End water
front, one of the largest mills of
the city, has granted the eight
hour day and will resume opera
lions Immediately.
The superintendent of the plant
sent a call for men to headquar-
tiers of the underwriters union
Wednesday.
Japs Quit Work.
Almost simultaneously, nearly
q score of Japanese lumber ham
dlers who have been working I'M
der guard at the st. Paul & Ia
coma Lumber Co. mill quit work
at the instance of the japanese
labor organization In Tacoma
which has joined the timberwork-
ers' strike.
This left only about dozen
men at the disposal of Maj. Griggs
in his attempted operation of the
mill.
An attempt to obtain strike
breakers for the mill was indicat-
ed Wednesday when bridge from
the third floor of the st. Paul
boarding house directly to the mill
without coming in contact with
the outside world.
Three Resume Work.
In addition to the Defiance
Lumber Co., it was learned We'd
nesday, the Hillhurst Lumber Co.
at Hillhurst, the McKenna Lum-
Der Co. at McKenna and the Mid
land mill will resume on the eight
hour day basis. The Mclienna Co.
will work three shifts.
The 18th hour attempt to fool
the government was disclosed
Thursday night in statement of
Robert B. Allen, secretary OF the
West Coast Lumbermen's associa-
ton.
According to reports from eSat-
tie, he declared the lumbermen of
Washington were making good
their promise" to the secretary of
war that the supply OF lumber
would be forthcoming.

Tacoma union men, thru their attorney, Charles

scale of wages at the forthcoming arbitration pro-
ceedings.
Instead thru DR.. Henry Suzzallo, arbitration, they
will seek to have established fundamental principle
which will stand as precedent not only in this city
and state, but turnout the country
This principle, as outlined by Attorney Reynolds
in Tacoma Wednesday for The Times is that it is the
duty of the state, as party to public utility con-

that will permit them as citizens, to discharge their

SLACKERS

Facing a double charge of
attempting to blackmail
pretty young woman OF the
West Side, and also of being
notorious "slackers," Oscar
Swanson, age Do, 1921 South
18th ST., and Ernest II. Jones,
%, 1915 South nth ST., are
held without bail mt the city
Jail today.
The men we're arrested by De-
tectives Wiley, Modahl and Os-
borne at the Franklin school,
South 18th and Lawrence, at IL
o'clock Tuesday night.
1t was at this same hour that
the young West Side woman had
been ordered in an anonymous
letter to be waiting on the school
steps to meet an unknown black
mailer.
One Former Fireman.
The young woman was waiting
on the steps, with the detectives
hiding close by.
Scarcely had the two men ac-
costed her than the detectives
leaped from their hiding places
Jones, one of the arrested men
lis a former city fireman, having
been stationed at engine house
No. 1.
Both prisoners defiantly told
the police that they had not reg
istered under the selective draft
law, and that they had taken sol
emn oaths never to do so. They
will be turned over to the federal
court.
The young woman, whose name
lis withheld by the police, received
the anonymous letter at her home
Tuesday.
Notify Police.
The writer, who said he was a
government secret service man,
said he had seen her sitting on
the Franklin school steps the pre-
Ivious evening in company with q
man named Bert" and that he
had information about the meet
ing which would cause trouble II
her parents learned 1t.
Unless she met the writer al
the same place Tuesday night at
III o'clock, unattended, the letter
said, she would be exposed to her
parents and her friends. 1t was
signed Secret Service Man."
The girl Immediately showed
the letter to her parents, and on
their advice she notified the po-
lice.
Show Up Promptly.
1t was arranged that she APP
pear at the school at the given
hour, and that police detectives
be on hand to capture the would
be blackmailer.
She had been sitting on the
steps less than 10 minutes wher
Jones and Swanson, both living In
her same neighborhood, appeared
1t was at police headquarters
that the two young men boosted
of being slackers.
I'm a socialist and ] don't be
lieve in war;" said Swanson. "a

to-"
1--WE have both taken a solemn
oath never to register" said
Jones. There isn't any power
that can make me register"
No Bail.
Both men denied any knowl-
edge OF the blackmail letter, and
said that their appearance at the
school was simply coincidence.
When Jones was asked for sam
pie of handwriting, he wrote with
his left hand, claiming that he
always used that hand to write
with. His writing was so labored
that police officers could scarcely
read It.
These men are slackers of the
worst sort, and I think there is no
doubt that they also know aobut
the anonymous letter." said De-
tective Capt. John Strickland.
They will have to stay until
the government gets thru with
them, as the draft law has re-
moved all possibility of bail in
such cases."

ORANGE, N. j., Aug. ID
HERE is THE WONDERFUL
WAR MYSTERY!
More thrilling than trench CAP
ture! More important than
wheat! More romantic than air
duels! More engrossing than
these and all the rest, BECAUSE
1t is still MYSTERY.
What is the mysterious, secret
invention Edison, Americas wiz
ard, has perfected to destroy the
U-boats. This is the big question
mark of the entire world war.
Here are the facts:
/. Almost a year ago it
was widely announced that
Americas electric genius had
a marvellous scheme by which
electric rays would set off
explosives at great distance.
2. Several months ago
prominent member of the
naval consulting board of ex-
perts announced American in
ventive genius was about to
turn against Germany a mys-
terious destructive agent that
would rid the sea of U-boat.
3. July IA Edison himself,
in one of his rare statements,
issued to his subordinates,
said graphically: 1--WE now
have ALL THE REBEL
LIOUS ELEMENTS under
control. Today will be re-
membered as the time when
we removed the last jinx
from the record"
A. July 20 the navy de-
partment permitted the an
nouncement that a device to
detect U-boats 10 miles away
was nearly perfected.

A mass of evidence and testi-
mony from Tacoma street car
men which is being assembled in
Tacoma Wednesday by Attorney
Reynolds will be submitted to
Suzzallo, and he will be asked to
establish an industrial principle
which they hope will lead them
out Of wage slavery, and may 60
a long way toward eliminating in
dustrial unrest turnout the coun-
try.
Suzzallo is a man of national
prominence. The street car men
have waived offers of settlement
from the traction company, and
are ready to trust to his judgment
for a final decision.
Il have found that the carmen
of Tacoma have ben living IL siav-
cry" said Attorney Reynolds
Wednesday after reviewing testi-
mony of conductors and motor
men and other Tacoma traction
company employees.
at has opened my eyes. 1t is
appalling.
"There are men here who
have had only one suit of
clothes I'm the last 10 years.
Their are wives and children
who have been compelled to
accept charity in order to
clothe themselves.
atnhz Oh Ill
zen must rear and educate his
children.
at prohibits by law practices to
prevent child birth. And yet as
the principle party in the opera
tion of a public utility, it allows
industrial conditions to exist
which make is impossible for the
citizen to discharge his legal OBJ
legation to the state.
"The traction company is only
an agent of the state. The citi-
zen's duty to the state Is first of
all in importance. The profits of
the traction company, as agent,
are secondary.
"The more l have seen of con-
ditions as they exist, the more ]
am convinced that the state, and
the employers are responsible for
the industrial unrest and revolu-
ton which is sweeping the coun-
try today.
1.-The workers of the country
even the I. w. W.--cannot be
blamed for this unrest. In our
industries we are creating con-
ditions which make it impossible
for employees to exist, and then
throwing the blame on them when
they organize to protect them
selves from slavery.
"The wife of one Tacoma
car man has had only four
dresses In the last 10 years.
People cannot live and exc
out bare existence, raising
children and educating them,
without the crumbling Of our
whole social and industrial
fabric.
ITO establish base line on
which employees may live is what
we are asking of Suzzallo. And /
believe he is big enough man to
accomplish 1t. In addition, we
are asking that the employee. as
we'll as the company should have
profit in order that he may save
against old age"
The carmen's side will be filed
with Suzzalo in Seattle Saturday.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1917-08-15

Cables received early at the
state department Indicated strong
opposition in England, France and
Italy to favorable view of the
new peace step. Belief that the
move was pro-Austrian was sharp
ly expressed by high government
|officials today.
Further, 1t was pointed out, the
general trend of the offer in so
far as II has been outlined to the
lstate department contains num-
Der of propositions to which the
limited States could not accede.
Both the United, States and the
allies will reply to the pope Eng
land is expected to speak for the
allies.
Reply Not Decided On.
The president has not definitely
determined upon the full scope Of
his reply. Decision awaits study
of the pope's formal note. The
president will reply to it. Accord
ing to one high in his councils and
who actively participates in the
formation of this countrys poll
cies, the president will refuse to
accept it.
Whether or not he makes sug-
gestions that may lead to further
negotiations awaits an expression
of world opinion.
Outlines Reasons.
According to this official, the
president will outline in simplest
terms why America cannot accept
status quo ante peace.
Our situation is this the Of
fetal said. "A neighbor has en-
tered our home, ravaged those
things we hold most dear. We
catch the enemy. He is within
our power. Then another neigh
Dor enters.
He suggests that we do not kill
the man who destroyed our happi-
ness. He suggested that we give
the beast his freedom, that a
purse be taken in the neighbor-
hood to restore the losses we have
suffered and that we then go on
and live in peace, beside the man
who ruined our family.
1.-THE thought is impossible
preposterous. 1t Is revolving to
even conceive Of peace with
Germany based on the terms the
pope has outlined.
Must Be ReckOned With.
There has been no attempt to
minimize the Importance of the
peace move. Coming as 1t does
from a source outside the realm
of diplomacy, at a time when the
world feels a revulsion at the
thought of another winter cam
paign and when all treasures but
the American are at low ebb, 1t
must be reckoned with.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1917-08-15

is easier" Allen is quoted as say
ing.
1.-The mills in the Grays Harboi
country are operating full tim'
and the Wilson Brothers mill a
Aberdeen yesterday reported tina
lit was turning away men.
1.-THE management of the
st. Paul a Tacoma Lumber
company, at Tacoma, is maxi
ing an effort to take back all
it's former employees, and as
vet has hired no strikebreak-
ers and has announced that
it will not do so.
"By last night the mill was
working practically full ca
pacity. The output of the mill
on Monday was 100000 feet,
and Tuesday IL rose to 100,
600. The normal output is
10000 feet.
How the st. Paul & Tacoma
Lumber Co. could turn out $780,
600 fet eof lumber a day with a
dozen men was a puzzler for Ta-
coma.
Another Local Formed.
The possibility of the timber
workers strike being carried to
Oregon became more apparent yes
terday, when it was learned that
Jay G. Brown, president of the In
ternational Single Weavers
union, had gone to Portland for
the purpose of organizing the
mills and camps of oregon.
Another local union of timber
workers was formed Tuesday
might by Tacoma union men al
IPuyallup. where all mills are run
mug eight hours.
