Resolutions Against the Suspension
 of the General Eight Hour
 Law in Alaska
 Adopted unanimously by the Alaska
 Labor Union of Juneau, Alaska
 at a meeting held Feb. 26, 1918
 WHEREAS, by popular vote of the qualified electors of the Terri tory, at an election held on the sev- enth day of November, 1916, the vote standing ten thousand four hundred and sixty-four for" and one thou sand, seven hundred and forty-six against" the people of Alaska de clared in favor of general eight hour day for all wage earners and salary earners" in the Territory o1 Alaska; and
 WHEREAS, in compliance to the mandate of the people as expressed by ballot, after the matter had beer under consideration for a period O1 eighteen months before the vote was taken, the Territorial Legislature, al the session beginning March 4, 1917 enacted a general eighthour law fol "all wage-earners and salary earners' in said Territory; and
 WHEREAS, to the end that there may be perfect harmony and cooper ation between the wage earners an( salary earners and their employers in the Territory at all times, an( na rt icularlv durinp the crisis pOV pending, it is imperative that sai( law should not be suspended ol modified; and
 WHEREAS, as the eight-hour day is the efficient day, and therefore the patriotic day, it's suspension ol
The Alaska daily empire., 1918-02-27

modification should not be tolerated at the behest of corporate interests where patriotism is frequently sub servient to profits, and where obsti- nate pride may obscure the vision to clearly perceive this wise innovation now recognized as a desirable na- tional policy for industry in the United States as we'll as in England; and
 WHEREAS, petitions have been presented to the Council of National Defense and to the Governor of the Territory of Alaska for the suspen- sion of the general eight-hour day by outside corporate interests, and by those who are subject to their dicta- tion within the Territory, and WHEREAS, The wage earners and salary earners of the Territory of Alaska, comprising a large per cent. of the population of the Territory, are opposed to the suspension of modification of the eight-hour law for the reasons set forth in said petitions, or for any reasons that could be set forth therein, and par ticularly because of the unrest and unsettled condition that would result from such suspension or modified ton. and the shortage of labor that would inevitably occur;
 NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolv- ed by the Alaska Labor Union, of Juneau, Alaska:
 FIRST. that the object and pur- l pose of this Union is to better en able it's members to render the great l est possible service to the Govern ment in this time of urgent need, to more efficiently aid in the upbuildine of this Territory and the material and moral development of the local community where we reside. SECOND, that the members of this organization are patriotic American citizens, having the welfare and per petuity of the American government at heart, and pledge ourselves to re spond to the call of the President for any service at home or in the | Ilelu, to alQ III manufacturing anu OS tablishing the principles of democ racy and justice throughout the world, and especially in oppressed and downtrodden Belgium, Serbia Rumania, Italy, Russia and France

 Pajamas are made In many coIors. usually they are in the lighter shades, but lavender, pink and rose, violet, green, mustard color and blue are all used for these sleeping garments. Very often two colors are combined. Gray underwear seems to be an accomplished fact. It has been designated by some makers as the color for service un- derwear." As it is made up in Georgette and satin as we'll as in linen it can hardly be called emi- nently serviceable. Obvious 1t is used because it remains apparently clean longer than the white, but the fact that it cannot be worn un- der transparent white or color with out looking soiled, even when 1t is entirely fresh, makes it interesting Sather than useful.

The Pond 2x4 Hall needed to be an 18x20 to hold the crowd of workers which packed the place last night like sardines and perfected an organization. There was a business like earnestness marking the whole proceedings, from start to finish. 1t being 12 o'clock before the meeting adjourned to meet next Tuesday even ing in the same hall.
 When the temporary chairman an nounced that a recess would be ta- ken to collect membership, the mem bership fee being $1 a month, the money began to jingle from every side. The announcement was made that only members would be allowed to remain, and that it was up to ev- eryone to take out card. In or der that no one might be embarrass- ed who was shy of funds, P. G. Bar nett, of the Cooks and Walters Union, announced that he would pay for the card of any such member who wanted to join.
 At one end of the hall was pic ture of President Wilson draped with the folds of the American Flag, and before the regular business was re- sumed, the motion carried that the audience arise, bare their heads and sing the Star Spangled Banner.
 Thereafter proceeding the election of permanent officers, D. A. Suther- land, Senator Aldrich and Attorney Hubbard addressed the meeting, be- ing allowed the privilege of the floor 10 speak E. P Pond took flash light picture of those present, and rendered the hall for the use of the Union until it could get organized and afford permanent hall or home.
 The bylaws governing the Alaska Labor Union at Anchorage will be submitted at the next meeting, and will probably be adopted.
 Each member present pledged him. self to become a committee Of one to bring a member at the next meet ing. It is purposed to secure enough funds to secure a home for the Alas ka Labor Union on Gastineau Chan nel The secretary will receive sal ary, and his compensation will be fixed at the next meeting. It was made plain that no un-patriotic or radical propaganda will be allowed the purpose of the Union as ex- pressed being to better the conditions of labor, to take up all matters af- fecting working conditions with em- ployers, and to see that the eight hour law is strictly enforced. The Union expects to secure the hearty cooperation of employers who de, sire to forward the interest of better working conditions.

 frocks of this material.
 Young girls frocks of serge or some other heavy fabric are shown with pique collars. On frocks for women the white collar has been to a large extent replaced by a collar of cOlored linen or else colored Georgette or chiffon. Dull blue is much used for collars for navy blue frocks.
 Umbrellas of colored silks are gaining more and more popularity as the days become longer. Blue, green, red and purple are the colors most often seen
 Much millinery is shown in brown velvet. Whether the dye situa- tion or the swinging pnedulum of fashionable taste is responsible for this popularity nobody knows. At all events brown is one of the best colors of the winter.
 Festoons of lace are arranged ruffe-like on some of the new silk petticoats. Although Sam Browne belts are tabooed in some sections as far as soldiers apparel goes, they are in- creasingingly popular for women. They are sold inexpensively and give the much desired military as- pect to the young girls street cos tune.

 The German crown prince is in com mand in this, sector and this may in- dicate serious effort to break the all lied line.

 American Troops in Both Battles. It is probable that American troops are engaged in the fighting in both the battles on the French front It is known that American troops are close behind the allied lines in Flanders while some time ago it was reported that they were near Rheims The late official reports note quite severe fighting in various sectors among them the Apremont forest where Americans are known to be holding positions at the present time The reperts say the Germans were re- pulsed 'n all these attacks. l. is officially reported from Wash inrtor that American positions in the

DOGS MUST BE KEPT UNDER
 STRICT CONTROL OR KILLED
Order of Commissioner of Domestic
 Animals WhittIesey.

Hartford, Conn. May 27.-A warn ing that dogs must be kept under strict control or killed was conto:n- ed in statement issued tonight by James M Whittlesey. commiss oner of domestic animals. Dogs and puppies are not essential, he said. are con- sumers of valuable food and when dis eased often cause damage amounting 10 thousands of dollars. "Csnsequant- lv.' he adds. dogs used only as pets should be killed or kept under con- trol"
 Because of the infection of sheen by mad dogs. he continues. there are or,,v about 17,000 head of sheep in the state. where there might have been 100 ,000. If dogs had been kept strictly under control and all unregistered dogs kill ed, the price of meats in the state might have been less and the people might have been paying less for t!eir woolen clothing.
 There are, the commissioner says, about 10000 dogs in Connecticut. Tn most towns less than 20 per cent of the dogs hre registered Game wardens are working hard to rid the state of the menace of unregistered dogs, Since December, $500 dogs have been shot for one reason or another. Se- were taxation, he believes, would do 3 great deal :: to end the earthly "a reers'' of a considerable number of the useless dogs.

months hearing complaints and pro- tests.
 Passenger fares in some sparsely settled regions now more than three cents will not be reduced. Although existing excursion and tourist fares are abolished, the order permits the establishment of round trip tourist fares somewhat lower than the three cent rate.
 Exceptions as to Soldiers and Sailors.
 Exceptions to the three cent rate are made for soldiers and sailors. who may travel at one cent a mile, when on furlough, at their own expense, and for persons attending the national en- campment of the Grand Army of the Republic at Portland, Ore, and the United Confederate Veterans reunion as Tulsa, Okla. Both of these organ izations are permitted rates of one cent mile and for various state meetings of Ire veterans two cents will be charged.
 Children under years of age will | be carried free as at present, and 1 those between and F will be charged
 half of the new higher fare. | Communication fares, which are raised 10 per cent, are construed to apply to
 persons having daily or frequent occa- sion to travel between their homes and
 places of meployment or educational 1 institutions
 To discourage the use of heavy sleeping and parlor cars the new order provided that the following minimum
 number of tickets should be bougrt for drawing rooms. compartments or sec tion:
 1 Two adult tickets for drawing room Tn a sleeping car; two adult tickets for l a cOmn9rfDn rH lof4
 adult tickets for a section: five adult tickets for exclusive occupancy of
 drawing room in parlor car. Passenger fares by water routes or by rail and water are to be increased
 approximately with the higher rail
 charges
 The basis for computing charges for
 excess baggage is to be one sixth of the normal passenger fare. with a minimum of '15 cents per hundred pounds and minimum collection of 25
 cents per shipment.
 Redemption of Mileage Books.
 The director general provided fully
 for the redemption of tickets and mlleage books purchased before June 10 and rendered invalid after that date } when the higher fares become effect ) i've. Unused portions of mileage books } ana unused or partly used tickets will
 be redeemed at their original purchase
 rate The 9 per cent increase in freight : charges will apply generally to class and commodity rates, but minor varia- tons will be necessary in many cases g For instance, where certain relation e ships exist between rival commercial centers. the p per cent increase will r apply to the longer distance and the 2 rate to the nearer locality will be the e same number of cents less. as under 0 present schedules. In this way charges : for many short hauls will be raised
 more than 25 per cent.

REPORT GERMANS FAILED
 OF THEIR OBJECTIVE.
Associated Press Correspondent With
 the French Army in France.

With the French Army in France, May 27, 2 p. m.-(By The Associated Press) a heavy offensive at dawn today against the French in the Locre- -Voormezeele sector the Germans failed of their objective at virtually all points. At some points the defending patrols were driven in, but vigorous counter attacks threw the Germans hack at most places. Virtu- ally the entire French line was re- established.
 Hard fighting at this hour still con tinues on the northern part of the battle front. Just south of Dickebusch lake, the Germans forced their way into the French line for a distance of 300 yards and also got into the front line system at another point in this region. In both these places the enemy was clinging desperately to his newly acquired positions, but the French were dealing with the situation. which appeared to be satisfactory at the lat est reports. One hundred prisoners already have been sent back to the French cages.
 Todays attack was perhaps prelim | mary to larger operations and appar-
 ently has been undertaken for the pur-
 pose of regaining the high ground which the French wrested from the enemy on May 20.
 Such positions as Bruloose anG
 neighboring places would be valuable
 acquisitions for the enemy if the Ger
 mans were to develop a general attacl
 in this region later
 l It is interesting to note in connec. tion with today's drive in F1ander. that the Germans considered their at.
 tacks on the Lys front in April to bt
 a failure, according to prisoners. I | is stated that while some troops have ! been congratulated for the way they fought, they have been told that theil failure was the result of bad staf
 work The general in command of tn,
 operations here was relieved of hi. ] command
