Serious Crisis Ahead Unless
Trade Expansion and
Construction Rapidly In
crease, Says Kirchwey
Women Have Ousted Men
Soldiers Returning Find
Employers Reluctant to
Discharge Efficient Help

Immediate industrial expansion and
increased construction work alone can
relieve the acute employment situation
resulting from the grip Of women on
their positions and the return of 10000
soldiers a day to this country, DR..
George W. Kirchwey, State Director of
the United States Employment Service,
declared yesterday
He asserted that it would be con-
trary to American principles and all
rules of fair play for officials OF the
employment service to conduct propa-
ganda to GUST women from jobs they
got during the war. The fact remains,
he declared, that these jobs were for
merry held by soldiers and sailors now
pouring back into civilian pursuits.
industrial development must be ac-
CELEBRATED Immediately" said DR.. Kirch-
wey, cor we will be in the midst of a
problem with consequences too serious
to discuss at present. There must be
more jobs, twice as many as there are
at present More construction work
the building industry really has not got
under way fully as yet-would make
positions for thousands of these hardy
men.
Unwilling to Gust Women
There are two reasons for the fail
ure of soldiers to return to their old
jobs now filled by women. They are
not willing to GUST their successors in
the first place, and, in the second, the
women have made good and the en-
ployers are not always willing to make
the change.
"The United States employment
service in this city is placing every
second man. What about the unfortu-
nate alternate He must hustle for
himself or starve"
A renewed effort WILL be made to-day,
Mothers Day, to find positions for dis
charged service men, Miss Anna Jar
Wis, founder of the Mothers Day move
ment, announced from Washington
that she intends to place "every moth
er's son" in some kind of employment
Her goal is 100000 jobs She feels this
many can be obtained, even though the
total grist of employment Sunday"
was 100000 positions.
The New York State wing of the
Service intends extending
the section devoted to the placing Of
professional men and women. When
Congress filibustered the service out
OF its support, the professional branch
here was discontinued. 1t was opened
recently under James 0. Winsow, who
previously was in charge. College

sively for women 10 now in complete
operation. To-day the United States
Housing Corporation opened the final

ings erected on the plaza between the

The first OF the twenty-?our units Of

sive buildings have been completed,
they have Immediately been occupied.
Applications for accommodation far

about the dangers and insults to which
she is being exposed. If there were
girls treated with disrespect by any
man of any rank in our army I think
those girls must have been in some
way ponsible-perhaps they didn't
realize it, themselves, but they must
have invited that sort of thing, even
though they did so unconsciously. I am
convinced of this, because Pm sure
that nobody could have been more Eek
posed than / was-I met all sorts and
conditions Of men alone, under all
circum stances, at every hour of the day
and night, and they were-oh, simply
wonderful!
81 can't tell you how fine they were.
Everybody acted as if he, individually,
were responsible for your welfare
as if each girl were his personal
charge. They seemed to regard it as
sort Of honor to give us their pro-
lection. so far from taking advan-
tage of our being on our own hook and
unchaperoned, they did everything con-
ceivable to show us that they were
really gallant gentlemen-as careful
Of US as we were Of ourselves.
Treated as Queen
what I said before about not giving
ISOltCou CRISES uOlelS EOOu mere, Wv
Pm not telling you about the treat
ment that I had in one Or two places
I'm telling you about the sort of chv-
alrous attention that found wherever
went Women were rare over there
sometimes I'd go to place and find
that the men hadn't seen a single
woman for more than & month. And
at such a place-well, they'd treat you
with such splendid courtesy and fine
feeling that they made you feel
sort Of queen among them. Don't let
anybody tell you that soldiers in camp
don't know how to treat women. I've
had ten months daily experience to
disprove such stories"
After the armistice Miss Cunning
ham, who has probably served under
the Red Cross in a greater number of
roles than has fallen to the lot of any
other American girl, went to Paris,
where she joined her cousin, Mrs
Whitelaw Reid, working in the Red
Cross hospital which Mrs. Reid main
tains there for officers in the Rue de
Chevreuse. She continued her Paris
work until sailing for New York the
latter part Of April.

Youth and 500, 900
H1 Gems Disappear

A general alarm for the arrest of a
seventeen-year-old employee of Meyer
owitz Bros, diamond importers, of ITO
Broadway, was sent out from police
Headquarters yesterday afternoon,
when it was reported to the police
that diamonds valued at 100000 had
disappeared from the Office of the com
pany and that an employee was missing
Henry Morton, of 80 West Fortieth
Street, treasurer of the company, ad-
mitted that the diamonds had disap-
peared, but said their value approx
mated $4,000 instead of the 100000
previously reported.
Mr.. Morton said he could not recall,
but that it was on record at the office.
Besides Mr.. Morton the other Of
ficers of the firm of Meyerowitz Bros.
are Michael Meyerowitz, president, of
30 West Sixtyseventh Street, and
Samuel Meyerowitz, secretary, whose
home is in Tarrytown.
At the home of Michael Meyerowitz
last night it was said that Mr.. Meyero-
WITT was not at home and had not been
there during the evening.

Camp Dix Comn,anderTurns
Post Over to Gen. Hale
Work Praised at Dinner
rendered i'm His Honor
Veteran of Many Wars
Intimate knowledge of In
dian Affairs To Be Util-
lied as Commissioner

CAMP DIX, N. j., May 10-Without
ceremony, Major General Hugh l..
Scott, commandant at this cantonment
since January, 1918, to-day turned over
his post to Major General Harry Hale
and prepared to retire from the army
after & continuous service of forty
eight years.
Tonight at Burlington General Scott
was guest of honor at dinner given
by welfare workers, officers and news
paper correspondents, and his work in
organizing the camp was commended
by all the speakers.
General SCOTS career has been one
of continuous fighting since his gradua-
ton from West Point in 1871. His
first assignment was lieutenancy in
a Western cavalry regiment and he
participated in eleven Indian wars. His
dealings with the redmen in these con-
ficts won for him a reputation for fair
dealing, and not one of the treaties he
made with them has been broken to
this day.
He was known to them as Mole Te-
quot, the "sign talker," and is said to
be more familiar with their customs
than any other white man living. 1t
is this knowledge that has caused the
SreSluenC TO name MIN a commissioner
of Indian affairs, which duties he will
take up within few weeks.
During the Spanish-American War,
the Cuban occupation and the Philip
pine insurrection he was in the thick
Of the fighting. 1t was while engaged
with the Moros that his hands were SO
badly mangled by an exploding shell
that for time it was believed he would
be compelled to retire, but he pre-
ferred to remain in the service.
When Germany was endeavoring to
bring about hostilities between the
United States and Mexico General
Scott was called upon three times for
diplomatic missions to that republic.
AS chief of staff when the United
States declared war on Germany he
contributed largely to the success of
the selective service act and helped to
draw the plans for intensive training.
AS military observer on five different
European fronts he had acquired a
knowledge of modern warfare that
made his work in this regard extremely
valuable to the government. He also
was q member of the Root commission
to Russia
An estate near Princeton has been
purchased by the general and he will
make his home there.

Secretary Of War Baker has asked

General Peyton C. March, Chief of

mothers of America:
"The grief of those mothers who
lost their sons is softened by the fact
that they have written an illustrious

News Printers Get
Is Per Cent Raise
From April First
Basic Pay of Morning Paper
Compositors Now$46.5O;
Award Made by Frank
Morrison, the Arbitrator

Yesterday Frank Morrison, arbi-
traitor in the wage dispute between
Typographical Union No. 6 and the
Publishers Association of New York
City, formally announced the award.
The printers receive an increase of
50 week, post-dated to April 1. That
is all they asked for on the wage ac-
count. The weekly pay of an after
noon newspaper compositor now will
be $43.50, and that of a morning news
paper compositor $46.50, on the basis
of an eight-hour day, less thirty min
utes for lunch.
The printers asked that overtime be
paid for double, instead of at the rate
OF time and half. This the arbitrator
denied. But all printers working Sat-
urday and Saturday night are allowed
q bonus of $1.S1.
The publishers asked that the stand
ard days work be made eight full
hours, instead of eight less half an
hour for lunch. This the arbitrator
denied.
Mr.. Morrison's conclusion was that
the cost of living had risen much
faster than printers wages, and that
even this large increase, which is "a
per cent for morning paper printers
and little more than rs per cent
Tor evening paper printers, will not re-
store them to pre-war standard of
living. The standard wage scale in
1914 was $50 per week.
The Publishers Association will &C
cept the award, but its members in
vlte attention to the rapid rise in the
wage cost Of producing newspapers.
Inc pressmen have obtained an in
crease of Sc week, post-dated to
March l. The engravers recently won
an increase of Sc a week. Other unions
mat contribute skilled labor to news
paper making are expected to come for
ward shortly with new demands.
