PREMIER MAKES
PLEA TO mission
Says Allies Welfare Depends Up
on Early Supply Of Tonnage

London, Nov. 21-Addressing men,
and his followers among the leading
| representatives of the British govern
| ment at a historic conference held in
| Downing street yesterday on the
| prosecution of the war, Premier Lloyd
George emphasized the importance of
the American shipbuilding and mill
tary programs.
"Assuming," he said, that the sub
marine situation does not get worse,
the easing of the position of the AL
lies depends entirely upon the dates
on which the American program of
launching 100000 tons of shipping
promised for 1918 comes into prac-
teal effect
The Premier said he wished to rec
ogniZe the eager earnestness with
which the people of the United States
were throwing themselves into the
great task. He expressed absolute
confidence that the great democracies
now marching shoulder to shoulder
would utterly overthrow the menace
which threatened the liberty of the
world.
The Prime Minister told the mission
that the collapse Of Russia and the
reverses to Italy made it even more
imperative than before that the
United States send as many troops as
possible across the Atlantic as early
as it can"
Mr.. Lloyd George thanked the mis-
sion for the invalua BILE services which
the United States navy has already
rendered, not only in protecting COM
merce but in dealing with the sub
marine, for vital assistance in f1nanc-
ing the war and for effective help in
many other ways"
With reference to the question of
supplies, Mr.. Lloyd George assured
the mission that the most drastic
food restrictions were about to be
imposed upon the people of the Brit
ish Isles.
The Premier's speech opened the
discussion, which, beginning about
noon, continued for an hour and a
half. The session, of course, was be-
hind closed doors. At the close one
of the conferees said that a spirit Of
the greatest earnestness and unity
permeated the meeting and that the
most important practical results were
achieved.
The American representatives pres
ent included General Tasker H. Bliss,
Chief Of Staff; Admiral William S.
Benson, Chief of Naval Opera tons:
Thomas Nelson Perkins, member of
the Priority Board; DR.. Alonzo Tay-
Tor, representing the Food Controller:
cambridge Colby of the United States
Shipping Board; Oscar r. Crosby, AS
sistant Secretary of the Treasury, and
Vance Mccormick, Chairman of the
War Trade Board. Colonel e. NJ
House, head of the mission, was not
present. His secretary Gordon Au-
chincloss, represented him.

WORK GIRLS 9 HOURS
Kansas Stores Can't Make Them Stay
Longer After February %.

Kansas mercantile establishments
will not be permitted to work female
employees longer than nine hours af-
ter February 81, according to an
nouncement made by Miss Lima Bres-
cite, secretary of the state welfare
commission. Nor in working them
nine hours will owners of mercantile
establishments be allowed to work the
girls after 8 o'clock in the evening,
any evening in the week.
B. B. Eitelman, manager of local
10-cent store, who was present, stated
that Topeka merchants in complying
with the order of the state welfare
commission would be obliged to close
their stores on Saturday nights at 8
o'clock. instead of $3.50 o'clock. Also
it would be necessary to have some
of the girls come to work later on
Saturday mornings in order to keep
the stores open until o'clock. Either
that or the employment of more girls
would be necessary.
Topeka said Miss Bresette, rs
slow in preparing for the new order
of things At Wichita, Hutchinson,
Atchison and a number of other cities
we have received word that the nine
hour law is being complied with now"
On April 6, a rule becomes effec-

girls in laundries more than nine
hours. This nine hours of work must
be done in ten consecutive hours.
