Eof an alleged attempt of the boss

men being at work in shops where
the old scale was renewed auto
matically and where there is no
trouble.
Alleges Shops Are Crippled.

ors' Exchange, the organization that
is making an effort to cut down our
wages below the living point" said
Mr.. Briggs. "the strike has so badly
crippled the twenty three shops of
merchant tailors making up that or
ganization that they have been
forced to send all their work to Bal
timore and other cities to have 1t
completed according to promise for

conditions. had made his report As

pointed out the absolute necessity OF

suit to many who, often through no
fault of their own, are compelled to
appear in the Police Court, either as
witnesses or defendants. and wait for
hours while the motley crowds OF
Police Court habitues have their
cases disposed OF.
Arthur B. Gunner Of the Autocar

6rc af
tions, and was partly instrumental in
helping give to the metropolis the

a better plan to have a committee
composed of representatives of the
automobile and truck men, teamsters

upon all such cases. which would
guarantee the offender an impartial
verdict. Mr.. Gunner said as such
cases are decided today it was al
most impossible for those concerned
