ami Traction Company. stated yes
torday afternoon that the employ,
ment of women instead of men is
being seriously considered by the
directors of the company. He re.
prted that number Of people
had suggested that women be EN-.
ployed, and he also reported that
several women had applied for posi-
tons, should 1t be decided to fill the
places Of the striking street car men
with women.
He stated, however, that the com.
lyany did not want to turn the mer
down should they desire to return
to work at the old scale of wages
stating that their places would be
held open for them for the present
I'VE are paying the highest wages
we can afford to pay, and are paying
higher wages than in most cities oj
the South" said Mr.. Tatum. eve
cannot pay higher wages under pres
ent conditions, and we are willinf
to take them back. OF course, Il
they refuse to return to work, tht
company will have to fill tbeil
places "
IT was at this point that he mad
the remark that the expedient oil
employing women was being consid
cred.

The movement of these schools to

London, Jan. 22.-Demands for the
calling of an immediate or early con-
ference of representatives of labor
from all countries to discuss peace
will be among the most important OF
the resolutions to be submitted to the
Conference of the British Labor Par
ty to be held at Nottingham tomor-
row and on the two days following.
Three resolutions requesting such ac-
ton have been prepared for submis-
sion to the conference by the Inde-
pendent Labor Party, the Socialist
party and the Glasgow Trades Coun.
Gil.
Various phases of the peace ques-
ton apparently will be dominant in
the discussions. Declaration that
the time has arrived for peace nego-
tiation is made in four resolutions to
be submitted by the labor organiza-
tions of Bristol, Norwich, Leicester
and York
A demand that labor be permitted
representation in the eventual peace
congress of the belligerent powers, or
that an international labor conference
be held simultaneously with the
peace congress, is set forth by labor
bodies of Great Yarmouth and Bris-
tol.
Withdrawal of all labor members
from ministerial Offices under the
present government is demanded In
eight resolutions prepared by the
British Socialist Party or by labor
bodies, on the ground that continu-
ance of labor members in the service
of government which permits ex-
ploitation Of the people by the cap
italists" is contrary to labor interests
and violation of the party constitu-
ton.

Ham bases its demands on "the con-
tiual bare-faced robbery of the peo-
pie by the food pirates, and sug-
gests that any laborer who refuses to
resign, should be expelled from the
party, Capitalist food thieves" are
strongly denounced, and the govern
ment is urged to handle the food
problem so as to eliminate profiteer-
ing and secure equality of sacrifice"
There is likely to be long and bitter
discussion on this issue. A year ago
the conference reafflrmed by an over
whelming majority, approval of the
retention of Office by labor ministers.
Financial proposals have been sub
mitted by more than dozen socie-
ties. They include plans for a sub
stantial levy on capital, drastic in
crease of the income tax, a raising
of the exemption limit to 1S0 pounds
or 200 pounds, and the compulsory
application of the sinking funds"
