board of directors Of the Chase Ma
tional Bank, declared last night that

was an act of courtesy, to give me one
more chance, so to speak, to reconsider
my resignation" said Mr.. Wiggin. 81

ready given him and the public | felt
could not do so. ! said l could not do
the office full justice with my other
work"

successor is appointed.

the labor shortage.
Some Of the women were at their
jobs as long as twelve or thirteen
hours day, Dr. Bell found, although
they were actually on duty but ten
hours. I'm my opinion. this is too long
a stretch" she said, "and the schedule
on Sunday should be cut down to allow
a rest by regulation Of the hours of
employment"
Mr.. sHedley said there were 45O
women in the employ Of the company
and that that number had been en-
ployed since the introduction of the
conductorettes, four or five months ago.
us there real necessity for the en-
ployment of women? Are there any men
on your waiting list?" he was asked.
"Ihere's not single man on our
waiting list. and we have to take
women because we can't get men.
"1ll take 400 able bodied motormen
and conductors on the New York Rail
ways tomorrow, the 1nterborough will
take 400 more and the Public Service
lines will take 500 more. Other cities
will take them, too, if they can get
them. Send any ablc-bodied man
around and We'll get him job.
"lf it is necessary we will employ
women on the Interborough, probably
as ticket choppers and sellers. / think
we may get to the point where we will
just as they are doing over in Europe" ;"
Mr.. Hedley contradicted fatty Mr.
Squire's statement that there were in
sufficient washstands and toilets in all
the rest rooms provided for the women
employees.

Iowa; Property Loss Put
at $1.OOO.OQO

CHICAGO, May 1O.-With additional
reports coming in to-day the death list
in yesterdays tornado in Illinois and
Iowa swelled to eighteen, eleven in
Iowa and seven in Illinois. AS wires
were still down in many localities, it
was feared that other deaths were still
unreported. Probably $50 persons were
injured and a rough estimate placed
the property damage at 100000.
A list Of the afflicted communities
with the number of deaths follows:
Nashua, Iowa, 3; Plainfeld, Iowa, l;
New Hampton, Iowa, 3; Calmar, Iowa,
a; Toulon. ILL.,, 2; Franklin, ILL.,, 3; Ell
mira H., 2.
Hundreds Of houses and farm build
ings were blown down and livestock
was killed in many localities. The full
force of the tornado appeared to have
struck at Mayville, Iowa, and expended
it's force at Princeton. In Illinois its
greatest force appeared to have begun
west of jacksonville and to have con-
tinued eastward to beyond Decatur.
A message from West Union, Iowa,
said train on the Chicago, milwaukee,
& st. Paul Railway had been wrecked
at Calmar, Iowa, but that there was no

"The U. S. Boys Working Reserve
desires to assist in every possible way
in maintaining the education and
training of the American youth. 1t
is using its every endeavor to protect
American youth from any serious in
vasion of its education and training.
If the schools are alive to their op-
portunity in this crisis it will be per-
fectly possible, in the opinion of our
highest authorities among the school
men themselves, to do the work that
is ordinarily done through a nine
months period within the limits Of
a seven months period. All that the
Reserve is asking of the boys, and of
their parents, and Of the schools, is
that they shall 50 adjust themselves
to the crisis that they will be able to
accomplish within seven months what
now they accomplish easily in nine
months.
1T is not necessary in this country
seriously to curtail the time ordi-
narily devoted to school work.
Whatever call the Reserve makes
upon the school boys Of, the United
States has to do with their vacation
periods. It asks the schools in some
instances to prolong a vacation
period, in order that work that is
vitality necessary to the winning of
the war may be done. But it relies
