TWO FAIRY GODMOTHERS
OF WAR WORKERS IN D. c.
Mrs. Howard Gould and Mrs. John D. Rookie
feller, jr., Here Looking Over Organiza-
ton Plans for Housing Girls.

Two fairy godmothers are In Wash
ington looking after the interests of
their protegees-the young feminine
war workers.
They are Mrs. Howard Gould and
Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, jr.-not bad
names for fairy godmothers?
Both are interested in rescuing the
hapless young war workers from the
clutches of the witches and ogres-the
extornionate landladies and the res
taurant keepers.
Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, jr., chair
man of the housing committee of the
War Work Council of the Y. NJ. c. A,
Is here with a New York architect,
plans for the Y. NJ. c. A. hotel for
transients, which will soon be erected
on the Union Station plaza and the
permanent home for war workers at
Silver Spring.
Planning Club Houses
Mrs. Howard Gould, as secretary of
the Women's Association of Com
merce of the United States, Is perfect
ing plans to provide homes for war
workers. or. as she prefers to call
them. club houses.
For IL is with the magic wand
of money that Mrs. Gould and Mrs.
Rockefeller both daughter-in- laws
of kings Of finance expect to trans
port the deserving little patriotic
workers from their dismal boarding
houses to chubby place Of light,
laughter and doubtless comparative
luxury.
While no one doubts that the lit
tie war workers pounding type
writer for dear life many weary
hours a day, and withstanding the
very real hardships of life in Wash
ington in war time. deserve any
good fortune a good fairy may care
to bestow upon them. they them
selves were the last to expect II.

digo blues and everything. A lumpy
mattress and a greedy cantankerous
landlady is nothing. according TO
their philosophy, compared to the
haTdshIps their brothers have to
stand in trenches. Greasy cheap
food in high-priced restaurants Is
better. they argue. than no food at
all in German prison camp.
The plight of war workers in
Washington is worrying both Wom-
en-, although they are working
through entirely different channels.
MY only sorrow" says Mrs,
Gould. ''is that the organization will
not be able to accommodate every
body"
THE government is going to OBJ
tain the houses for US even though
it might be necessary to commanders
them. We will furnish them. re-
model them and provide matrons for
them, and many other little COM
forts have been planned for the girls.
A cafeteria where well-cooked food
may he procured at cost will be on2
CT the features"
Will Procure Stenographers.
Mrs. Gould VIII also endeaYor,
through the various feminine cham
bers of commerce which she has Or
ganized in many large cities, to pro-
cure stenographers and typists for
the government.
"The prominent business women in
every city who are connected with
these organizations will endeavor 10
persuade young girls to come to
Washington to work." Mrs. Gould de-
clared. -..r
You see, these women are in touch
with the sources of stenographers
and clerks, and doubtless many more
efficient ones may be persuaded to
come than would otherwise.
THE parents must be talked TO
and persuaded to allow their daugh-
ters to come. l intend to open head
quarters here so that the young girls
who are sent through the agency of
the Women's Association of Com
merce will have q place where they
know they can receive help IL needed.
and where their parents know that
we will stand back of them"

CHARGES WITH
DRAFT EVASION
Special Indictments Are
Brought Here iin'Alleged
Green Conspiracy.

Special indictments against five per-
sons were returned by the grand jury
yesterday. probably the most impor-
tant of which relate to the charges
Of conspiracy to violate the seIective

L. Travis, lawyer and member OF the
corporation commission of North
Carolina; Selim Barnett Joseph, OF
Chicago. and Leon Myer Green. OF
New York, formerly lieutenant

The indictment against this trio re-
cites that on June %, 1873 they en-
tered into an agreement whereby they
were to have the Perth Amboy Dry
Dock Company pretend that IT had
employed Green as its purchasing
agent, and later should make such a
showing to this effect before his local
board in New York City that he would
become exempt from military service.
II is alleged, further. that on July
> last Green presented an affidavit to
his local board purporting to show
that he was receiving a salary of S12,-
COO a year from the Perth Amboy Dry
Dock Company, and that his oCcupa-
tion was necessary to the maintenance
OF a military establishment, the idea
being to evade the selective draft.

j. geph with being ccnspirators in
the scheme.
