Now two problems of fate were to-

seventeen and three young children.
As Moore passed their place he noted
that il was all dark. the family prob

sound resembling the tipping over Of

WOMEN. EXCEED men
IN JAPANESE FACTORIES
$4,000 Japanese Women Work
at Average Daily Wage Of Ten
to Twenty Cents for a
Twelve Hour Day.

sThere are more women In industry
in Japan than there are men, accord
to q statement recently made by the
War Work Council of the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association.
The world war has brought $4,000
women and girls into the daily grind
of industry according TO this state
ment; 10000 of them little girls under
fifteen years OF age who work twelve
hours at wage of ten TO twenty CENTS
q day, that the world may have sill,
dresses and munitions.
In Tokyo alone, city Of two and
one-half million people, there are 100
| 600 women employed in sixty-two in.
| dustries and businesses varying from
work as telephone operators, clerks.
otenographers and bookkeepers TO
work in silk and other sorts OF fac
tories and domestic work.
Each year thousands OF these wo-
| men 90 back to their homes in the
country, broken in health and victims
| of tuberculosis because of the poor
/ conditions under which they work aEd
live. They are housed III dormitori2s
in the factory compound. These dormi-
tories are frequently unsanitary. Thc
girls work long hours, have no recre
alton and on finishing their long day
30 Immediately to bed, oftentimes q
bed which a girl who works at night
has been sleeping in all day.
AS part of its world service for wo
men. the Young Women's Christian
Association plans TO build dormitories
in manufacturing towns where girl
: may live cheaply under healthfu
physical and social conditions, TO seuC
out secretaries who can introduce rec
| reation into the factory compound an'
direct games and social life.
This is done with the cooperation
Of the factories managers and pro
prietors. One Of the most Influential
, OF these is Mrs. Suzuki, the mos
! prominent woman manufacturer II
) Japan, who is owner and manager of
: firm which exported S11 100000 wort
of bean oil to America last year.
I Recently Mrs. Suzuki decided {
employ one thousand women in lie

a permanent school where JapaneS
girls may be trained TO enter tile bus

Army Food Profit
To Aid Consumer
Committee viii Decide
Ho,o City Shall Spend
100000 Sale Surplus

A committee appointed by Mayor
Hylan will determine upon the use of
the 100000 profit realized by the city
from the sale of surplus army food
stuffs Edwin J. O'Malley, Commits
siorer of Public Markets, announced
yesterday.
Mr.. O'Malley turned over three
checks for 100000 each to the Cor
poration Counsel yesterday, to be held
until the committee decides to what
charitable use this money shall be put
1t is expected that Mr.. .O'Malley and
one of the millionaire Special Deputy
Police Commissioners will be appointed
to the committee. Mr.. O'Malley's plan
he said last night is to establish a
fund which may be utilized for the
purchase at various times of foodstuffs
Offered in bulk, reasonably, and resell
them to the people. The city cannot
spend money for this purpose. An
other use for the money suggested is
the inauguration of milk fund to sup
ply that necessary food to the children
of the poor.
Mr.. O'Malley pointed out that re-
Gently he could have purchased pota-
toes at an unusually low figure if he
had had the money. Thousands of dol
lars could have been saved to consum-
ers by their purchase, he declared.

D,Annunzio Said
Coup
London Hears He Aims to
Cause RepoIt in Mon
tenegro and Albania

LONDON, Dec. 6.--Gabriele d'Annun-
zfo and his adherents in italy have ar
ranged the most startling and ambi-
tious scheme for the advancement Of
their cause yet undertaken, revolving
about an attack on Spalato in the i'm
mediate future, according to private
advices from Dalmatian sources which
are usually we'll informed.
Efforts are being made, it is de-
clared, to instigate uprisings in Mon
tenegro and Albania, coincident with
the Spalato assault, it is declared
while the Bulgarians are being urged
to attack the Jugo-Slavs.
Those favoring the annexation OF
Dalmatia are said to have sent mis-
sions into Albania and Montenegro ia
foment trouble, but the success attend
ing these projects is unknown.
At the same time, it is stated, guns
and war material actually have been
delivered in Bulgaria for use against
the Jugo-Slavs.
Observers express the belief that
the projected campaign reported is not
entirely dAnnunzio's plan. but was
conceived and supported by his ad
herents in Italy.
Meanwhile 10000 Jugo-Slav troop.
in Dalmatia are said to be ready to
fight on the slightest sign of agrres-
sion from the Italians.
