EFFECTIVE IN OCTOBER

The Silk Manufacturers Association of

ference with President John Golden and
other officers of the United Textile
Workers Of America, decided yesterday
to grant the demand OF the union for
a forty-four hour week. effective on Oc-

another big strike in Paterson for three
or four weeks, the chief instigators be-
ing the Amalgamated Textile Workers
of America, a radical labor organiza-
the forty-eight hour week to the silk
Of the war.
The date in october was fixed tenn
porarily, and in case the President issues
his proclamation OF peace before that
date the new schedule will go into effect
directly. In q Joint statement issued
after the conference the manufacturers
said they believed the demand for the
forty-four hour week was in response to
the trend of the times" and that 1t
would eventually be accepted throughout
the country.
President Golden and the other repre-
sentatives of the United Textile Work.
ers Union said a nationwide effort would
now be made to bring about adoption
Of the new schedule in the silk industry.
The victory was achieved without
strike actually having been called. or
even peremptory demands being made
upon the manufacturers. 1t lie con-
sidered to be a very shrewd move en-
gireered by the American Federation Of
Labor OF which the union IL a member.

NO cause of grievance and greatly
strengthens the position OF the United.
Nothing Is said about wage increases
in the agreement. and It is not believed
there will be any. as most OF the opera

workers are affected by the decision.
The voolen and worsted manufac-
turers OF Passaic yesterday refused

Hear "Woman' s" Wild

Los Angeles, Calif-It was wild
night off Point Firmin.
A gale was blowing and the edges
of the huge combers which were
rolling into the rocky shore were
being torn to shreads by the wind
and driven in fine spray against the
embattled cliffs.
Suddenly, as the gale died down
for moment, the shrill voice of a
woman apparently battling for her
life in the seething surf, pierced the
air.
Another woman in a cozy cottage
on the cliffs above heard it and sent
in a hurry call to the harbor (San
Pedro) police station for rescuers.
A dozen men armed with ropes and
life buoys rushed to the scene in an
automobile.
Directed to the spot they hurried
down the cliffs to the edge of the
foaming sea. Again a cry-then
more cries rang out
What they saw was
A half dozen sea lions. each hav-
ing the time of its life, barking and
cavorting about on the rocks.
"I'll be -" said one policeman,

apparatus and went back 10 the sta

New York, May l6.-Authoriza
ton by congress of single issue Of
equipment trust obligations for the
financing of hundreds of millions OF
dollars worth of rolling stock pur-
chased by the government for the
railroads was advocated by the AS
ISOLATION of Railway Executives
after a conference here today. 1t
also was decided that a thorough
revision of the act to regulate COM
merce was necessary.
After an exhaustive discussion of
the various proposals which have
been made for new railroad legis-
lation before the government re-
linquishes war control of the car
riers, the following statement was
issued:
There is undoubtedly a general
demand all over the country for an
early return of the roads to their
owners, but, of course. as has been
pointed out by the president, by the
director general of railroads and by
leading members of congress, it
would be disservice to the country
to return the roads to the manage
ments without correcting the recog-
nized evils in the system of rail-
way regulation we had prior to the
war.
These readjustments in the old
system Of regulatio were seriously
obstructing the free development of
transportation facilities and it is I'M
thinkable that the country would
consent to a return of the roads to
their owners before insurance had
been provided for the future by a
thorough revision of the act to reg
ulate commerce. The country is
now in such general agreement as
to the basic principles of railroad
legislation that the work of con-
gress ought to be comparatively
easy"
