"The steamship lines are convinced

yesterday that their patience had been
exhausted and that drastic measure
were about to be adopted to move the
400 odd vessels that have been tied up
in the harbor for .he last two weeks
1t was announced that the steamship
,Artemis had been placed alongside the
Chelsea piers for the accommodation
and feeding of such of the longshore-
men as are willing to work. Police
protection has been requested of the
Mayor, and every assurance of safety
given volunteers. If these steps are
not sufficiently reassuring and the men
are not induced to return to work, the
higher authority will be appealed to

The situation in the harbor was
somewhat improved yesterday, with
about 5000 men reporting for duty,
200 more than the day before Fig

Service showed that total Of 1900
men hade gone to work on the govern

Birthday
Reflections.

Four years ago to-day. up in
The Bronx. the first Paramount
Shop saw the light.
We believed that standardized
shirts-standard in quality, in
fabric, in fit, in price-shirts that
gave the utmost in value at the
minimum of cost, was an ideal
worth while.
Would men understand that
this was the sanest way to shirt
economy-or would they still be
attracted by the old-time bar
gain" appeal?
That was the question which
only time could answer. So we
rolled up our sleeves and dug in.
To-day the Paramount ideal
Is four years young; it has lived
and hourished and proved its
worth.
In four years it has grown
from the narrow confines of one
small shop to the roomy free
dom of seven large ones.
And without capital or intlu-
ence worth speaking of, with no
mark-down sales, no strategy.
no trumpet-blare! Simply the
substantial growth of a substan-
hal idea that became a principle
and a policy.
That Paramount policy and
principle have remained unal-
tered. Paramount shirts at
Sl.S0 and $500 are still the
standard of shirt value.
And the Paramount guaran
antee of satisfaetion or your money

something.

Four Million Farmers
Thought to BE Organized

Already III those circles where the
development is being discussed it has
been named the Triple Alliance" and
it is pointed out that it will be q
stronger and more forceful organiza-
tion that the famous triple alliance
of England, which includes railway
men, miners and farmers added. The
American triple alliance will include
all of those, with the farmers added.
The number of organized farmers in
America is not definitely established,
but it is believed to equal the number
of organized industrial workers, who
count some four millions under their
banners.
Beyond question the alliance. il it
materializes according to what was
learned o-day, will be an aggres
organization--an alliance for offensive
and defensive purposes-but, accord
ing to one leader who refused to be
quoted, "having from the start a majo
interest in the welfare of the whole
public, expressed in a program of &C
cost of living, must bring q benefit to
every consumer In the land"
The industrial conference, which is
probably responsible to large degree
for the desire for closer relations be-
tween labor and the farmers, held a
last session to-day amid gloom and
doubt. 1t was after noon when the
two remaining groups were called to
order.
Public Group to Carry
On Conferences Work

Dor Wilson had talked matters over at
the White House. al have been in con-

0r. Lane. "He said that labor's de-

conference, and that therefore the

much as the burden falls upon the pub

"The people of America are greater

Mr. Lane. "First of all, We are Amer

The Secretary called attention to the
condition of the weather--rain was
drizzling out Of leaden sky. at looks
gloomy" he said, "but this is the kind
of weather which we in the West call
growing weather"
The conference was adjourned. with
she usual number of rising votes Of
thanks to the usual number of per-
sons, the public group going into con-
ference to determine its future course,
tn employers to return to their homes.
