shingles. Appeal is now made
to friends of the place, here and
elsewhere for contribution. as it
will take something over SIPS to
get the material and have the
work done.

on the effect of street ear employment

work broadens woman's outlook on
life and produces physical improve
ment-in fact, it is an ideal occupa-

"In all respects" says the Garment
Worker, "the report must be highly
satisfactory to the directors of the
company, as it relieves them from any
further need of apology to the public
for the employment Of female labor in
such capacity.
"There is nothing in the occupation
that elevates the woman, morally or
intellectually. 1t brings associations
that destroy the moral fiber of wom-
anhood and which lead downward
rather than to high thought and noble
living 1t is a rough work and its
social contacts are against moral i'm
provement. In its physical effects it
cannot fail of having deteriorating
result on the physical stamina of
women. 1t is not an occupation that
self-respecting fathers or mothers
would desire their daughter to engage
in unless under the pressure of dire
necessity, because they would realize
the physical and normal dangers with
which she would be surrounded.

be assured in meeting problems that
viii arise in war work, as well as in
the regular development of opportu-
mites for the employment of women.
Among the questions discussed were
how to assure equal pay for equal
work, how to protect the health in
hazardous casks and in night work,
and how to provide for the enforce
ment of sanitary laws.
Secretary Wilson, in the opening adj

OPPOSE UNION
Does Western Union, Despite
Government Control.

Washington-The most important
question before the convention of the
Commercial Telegraphers' union in
this city was the reinstatement of
Western Union employees who have
been locked out by President Carlton
in defiance of President Wilson's pro-
clamation of April 8th Over 700 tele-
graphers are awaiting reinstatement
although the company has been un-
der government control since August
1st.
The convention elected committee
of five to remain in Washington to
press the claims for reinstatement
This committee was given full power
to act and must make its report to
the membership not later than No
vember 2.
The unions record shows a gain OF
more than 5000 members in four
months, despite continued opposition
of the companies. President Konen-
kamp was reelected internationa1
president for the fifth time and Vice
President James F. Campbell of Van
couver, British Columbia, was elected

PRINTERS
Hold Interesting Meeting

Typographical Union No. 290, held
its first meeting Wednesday since the
outbreak of the Flu. 1t was the
most enthusiastic and interesting
meeting held by the Typos" in many
moons.
Much laid over routine business was
transacted and one new member was
initiated. W. Harry Speers, delegate
to the Ohio State Federation conven-
tion in Columbus made an interesting
report of the conventions proceedings
In as much as the war is now over
and things have been tied up long
long time the printers decided the
time had come for a little something
doing in the way of little social
session. A committee consisting OF
Albert Keller, Harry Dwinnell and
Edw. Weiss was appointed to arrange
for such affair to be held in the near
future.

WESTERN UNION
Loses Nothing BY Federal
Control, Declares Presi-
dent Carlton

Washington-By an agreement with
the post office department and the
Western Union Telegraph company
the interests of this concern, which
is now under government control, are
fully protected and dividends will con-
tinue their uninterrupted flow. The
government, according to a published
statement by President Carlton of the
company, agrees to pay all interest
on outstanding bonds, all dividends an
interest payments due on stock and
bonds of subsidiary companies, all
taxes and operating charges and in
addition$8, 100000 annually to insure
the present rate of dividends on the
company's stock.
"Viewed in every aspect the con-
tract is fair one to the telegraph
company and the government" says
President Carlton.
"The contract leaves to the COM
pany all its incorporating income and
the income from its eight transatlan-
tic cables. The government likewise
to carry the plan of the company for
pensions for employees, disability and
death benefits, and also maintain all
reserves for depreciation and amorti-
cations upon the same basis as the
telegraph company has maintained
them. The government further pro-
vides for the continued maintenance
and operation of the property in as
efficient a condition as when taken
over and the return of the property
to the telegraph company is such a
condition on the termination of fed
eral control
"The telegraph company will loan
each year the sum of 81 100000 with
out interest toward financing approx
ed additional extensions; funds re
quired for these purposes beyond
such amount to be furnished by the
postmaster general. If new secur-
ties are required to be issued by the
telegraph company the government
pays the interest, dividends or other
costs of such securities issued in ex-
change, discharge or renewal of exist
ing obligations"
