by the company because the men re-
fused to teach them. The women were
employed at the same wages the men
receive. and are subject to all other
conditions applicable to the men,
5. The women applied for member
ship in Division 26S of the Amalga-
mated Association of Street Railway
Employees, which has closed shop
agreement with the Cleveland COM
pany. But the Amalgamated, both To-
cal and national officers, refused to
admit the women as members, be-
cause to do so would extend to the
women protection against dismissal.
E. The women conductors work in
Cleveland is primarily the work of
cashiers. The doors of the cars open
and close with an automatic device
upon pressure of button, or else by
a light lever which requires but the
turn of hand. The car barns are
clean and comfortable, with separate
waiting rooms for men and women,
the women's department being fitted
up neatly as a sitting room and rest
room, with a matron in charge There
are a dozen kinds of work historically
accepted as "a woman's job" which
are harder physically, more disagree
able, and associated with more unde-
sirable surroundings than is the work
of the women conductors.
Z. The Recommendation of the Ma
,ional War Labor Board was issued
under conditions contrary to its own
procedure as well as without reco yp.-
ton of the merits of the controversy.

Essential facts in the case of the
women street car conductors of Cleve-
land, according to representative of
the National Women's Trade Union
League who made inquiry on the
ground. are as follows:
any men on the cars of Cleveland
when they took jobs as conductors.
They were first employed on the cars
in August, when the U. S. Employ
ment Service was advertising the fact
that there was a shortage of $4,000
men for the nonduct of essential in
dustries in that section of Ohio alone.
2. The women are not now keeping
men out of such jobs. This statement
is proved. by the fact that the Cleve-
land street railway was not at the
time of the strike the other day and
is not now running all its cars, be-
cause it has not the crews. The mems
attitude is simply a demand for n
monopoly of the street car occupations.
3. The women conductors of Cleve-
land are all self-supporting women,
two-thirds of them supporting also
children or parents in addition to
themselves. Two days ago the chair
man of the women's association re-
ceived word that her husband had been
seriously wounded in France. Twenty
five of the other women have hus-
bands or sons in the army.
4. The women conductors are COM
petent. They are trained for their
work in training school established

WEEKEND REALIZING SENT STAPLE DOWN
General List Closed Barely Steady at a Net Decline
 of B to 60 Points

New York, December 27-The cotton realizing for over the weekend and sell ing for a reaction based on the extent of recent advances and reports that flu lures had gone up more rapidly than spots. The general list closed barely steady at a pet decline of 35 toA6o points. The market opened steady ateunchanged prices to decline of Is points under scattered liquidation. The early offer inss were not badly taken and there were recoveries right after the call, but selling became heavier on the bulge and the market soon weakened. In addition to realizing and local selling, for a re- acticn there seemed to be considerable selling for southern account. Part of this was attributed to the liquidation of long accounts but some of 1t was &C., coRlpapied by reports of selling against spots previously carried unhedged in the south This seemed to increase confi- dence among sellers for while and the market was unsettled for while. The market was relatively firm, but eventually sold off to 29.25c or 45 points net lower compared with decline of 47 to 66 points on the later months
 Japanese interests were credited with bnysne March early and Liverpool bought January here against sales of later de- liveries. but the bulk of the business was believed to be for local and southern ac- count No special news feature was dis c,;sseo around the ring and there was some covering in the late trading on re- potts that the trade interests had been buying on a scale down.

SHORT CONTRACTS FEATURED TRADING Liberty Bonds Conspicuous Yesterday by Unusual
 Amount Changing
 Hands

New York, December 27,-Covering of short contracts was a factor of consider able importance in today's stock mar first signs of support, though manifest ing some irregularity on profit taking towards the close
 Among the few conspicuous exceptions to the better trend were St. Paul common and preferred, some of the secondary coaleTs and several of the other rails whose rental or contractal relations with the government are yet to be definitely determined. h
 Far more active relatively, than stocks was the bond market, the turnover in that quarter aggregating probably the largest total of any session this year. Liberty Bonds. with the fourth 4As at the low record of s9420 and the first and second fours+ at new minimums of s92s0 and ss250, respectively, contributed mainly to the extensive dealings.
 The early rally embraced utilities, in- cluding local fractions, but gains in that quarter were not long maintained. Cop pers also fell back on reports of .addi- tioral price cutting in affiliated metals.
 Shipping, oils, motors and equipments were the sustaining features, United Fruit scoring an extreme advance of points, Petroleum an average of points and General Electric points.
 Leathers and tobaccos were again talk en up by pools. which renewed their ac- ttvities also in so-called food shares. The less distinctive specialties were fea- tured by Sears Roebuck at $ point ad- vance U. s. Steel ended at a slight gain after losing half a point.
 Aside from the heaviness of the Liber- ty group, the bond market lacked fea- ture, foreign issues holding firm. Total sales, par value, aggregated sS2. 100000.
 Old United States registered fours lost ss per cent on sales.
 < Final prices on Liberty Bonds today were: s51Ss, $e9.60; first convertible 4s, $s2.S0; second 4s, ss2.9s first convertible 4As s9630; second convertible 4A's. $s3.so; third 4A's, ss54o; fourth 4hs $s4.4s.

New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, December T.-The ten- dency in cotton today was to react from recent advances. the downward move. ment of yesterday being brought ovet into the opening call, except on the more distant months which were l to 4 points up. After the call the whole list sagged and the decline finally amounted to il to 53 points. Recoveries of 20 to 90 points ensued on reshzbuying but late in the session the market softened again and new low levels were reached where the net loss amounted to 4s to 55 points. Orr the close prices were 46 to 5i off.
 Spots were reduced by 25 points which made the quotation on middling 3l cents At its lowest. January stood at 2sSoc and July at 2S.43c.
 These differences, as between spots and contracts and the near months and the distant stimulated what floor comment said was investment buying.
 The export movement for the day was l51s4 bales against 5245 bales this day last year Official figures placed the total quantity of cotton on shipboard here at es. s4a bales against only 1z.5@3 this day last year. which led to.predictfons of larss local clearances in the next day or twp

 SENDSUP CORN PRICE.
Oats Strengthened Up With Corn, While Provisions Gained From 10c
 to $1

Chicago. December 27.-Sharp advances irs the corn market resulted today from persistent meagerness of arriving sup plies. At one time the December op- ton showed an overnight jump of 7lSc. Prices closed unsettled, varying from the same as yesterdays finish to 6ss higher. with January si.42A@L42ss and May H. .s6St G1 .3s5s. Oats gained ssQ& and pro- visions Toe to S1
 All deliveries of corn except May rose to the highest prices yet this season. December led in point of strength, but busiress in that month was, not large and the squeeze on December shorts did not become acute the last hour of the ses sion On the bulge country offerings be- came somewhat more liberal and con siderable realizing by longs here took place. Nevertheless. December, unlike the other months held most of it's ad- vance.

 New Orleans. December 2T--fSpe- clal l)--The reactionary feling in cot ton increased today. although recess sions were not wide and the market had tendency to recover quickly from It's recessions. a tendency which ap- peared to be due to the policy of many buyers to take hold on soft spots. Mo- mentarily on the opening the more dis tant old crop months were 10 to 46 points up, but after the call which fin ally carried the market Al to 53 points under the level of yesterdays close From the lowest there were recoveries to 20 to 80 points, but in the after noon less strength was shown and late in the session prices were inclined to work down toward the lowest levels again.
 Reports from the interior during the day were to the effect that spot hold CTS were not willing to follow the de- cline in the contract market It Is quite likely that the attitude of spot holders more than other factors will determine the duration of the reaction. Any easiness on their part would cpe ate quick declines but If they remain firm. it is doubtful if the reaction can persist beyond the lengths neces- sary to bring about improvement in the technical position.
 The export movement continues en- couraging. 7Toregn shipments today were 15,134 bales against 5245 last year for the week. SS.629 bales against S5.52s this week last year, for the sea- son. 1.S16.9sS bales, against 2.321 ,IsS to the same date last year. There are -on shipboard here this afternoon 6s,s4s bales. against f7.543 a year ago. This means large local clearances in day or two.
 Closing prices showed net losses of 4s to 51 points.--Shepard X Chuck.

Over McReynolds & Julian's Wire

New Orleans December 2l.--Nspe- ctal ,--,phe market having assumed. rcactionarv tendency of late, there was further fIquidation of long contracts and hedge selling against spots, which influenced values to lower level~
 we the of the opinion, however, thnt tNe recession is only temporary and that the market >will be healthier TOT the cleaning out it has received, as ihe technical position of the contract market is likely to be benefited there by. f-
 The fundamental features of the sit- uation remain good. owing to the urg- ent need of a very large quantity or cotton abroad. the strength of south crn spots and because of prospects for more tonnage for exportins in the near and distant future.
 The leading financial and industrial men of the country are very optim- istic as regards the future trade out look of the United States, predicting unparalleled prosperity for America in the future
 There is a large quantity of cotton op shipb6ard at all ports awaiting shipni cnt to Europe. and large num- Der of additional vessels are due to ar rive at southern ports soon.
 Exports and spinners takings are likely to increase after the New Year. whereas the corresponding time one year aen they were on the dectease.
 Ir~order to derive the benefit to some of the probability of higher prices eventually, the south must be patient. as It has been in the past, and mar ket it's cotton only as the trxde re- quires. aA the demand is likely to broaden by spring. when tonnage Is expected to be more plentiful.
 Ameritar sptnners missed the chance to buy freely when the market was nucf lower. When they enter the mar ket for their future reouirements. they will probably meet with foreign com pes1tson for the unmarketed portion of this years crop,
