MRS. M'INTYRE, OF
SAVANNAH, NAMED
.COMMITTEEWOMAN
BY ROGERS WINTER
(Staff Correspondent Of The JournaN


SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July q,
Mrs. Frank 1. Mcintyre, of Savan-
| nah, a prominent club woman and 4
sister Of David c. Barrow, the dis
tinguished young Savannah lawyer
Thursday night was elected Demo
cratic national committeewoman
from Georgia by the national conven-
ton. Her name was placed in nomi
nation by the Georgia delegation like
the rest of the names for national
committeeman and national commit
teewomen by their respective states,
The nomination of Mrs. Mcintyre
as national committeewoman and of
Clark Howell as national committee
man from Georgia was received with
applause, in which the Palmer sup
porters took prominent part. The
Palmer forces here had thrown their
support to Editor Howell and the
Palmer delegation from Georgia
against the >delegation elected by the
state convention. Editor Howell
nomination was the final eliminating
point to their victory, as. it signified
his continuance on the national COM
mittee for another term of four
years. Two names were placed in
nomination for national committee
woman in the caucus held by the
Georgia delegation. One was the
name of Mrs. Mcintyre and the 9TH
er was the name of Mrs. J. E. Hayes,
of Montezuma, president Of the Geor
gia Federation of Women's Clubs.
On a call of the roll Of the delega-
ton, Mrs. Mcintyre received twenty
seven votes and Mrs. Hayes received
eighteen. There are forty-five or
more delegates voting in the Georgia
delegation, and each is casting his
pro-rata share of the Georgia con-
vention vote of twenty-eight. The
nomination of Mrs. Mcintyre was a
victory for Pleasant A. Stovall,
chairman of the Georgia delegation,
who had supported her from the
start.
Nothing was done Thursday night
by the national convention except to
elect national committeeman and ma
tional committeeWomen from the
several states. The convention held
night session beginning at o'clock
on the expectation that the platform
committee would be ready to report,
but the long continued and bitter
fight involving a wet or dry plank
on national prohibition was not yet
ended when the convention met. A
recess was, therefore. taken for the
state delegations to caucus on their
national committeeman and commit
teewomen, and after their nomina-
tions had been confirmed the con-
vention adjourned until 10 o'clock
Friday morning.

Pretty Actresses
Freeze to Death
Mary Rhodes and Lillian Thompson,
Two Actresses are Found Dead
in Grant Park, Chicago.

Chicago-Two pretty young actresses
found dead in Grant Park on Chicago s
lake front, were either frozen to death
or died from wood alcohol poisoning,
according to officials here today. The
bodies were identified as Mary Rhodes
of Altoona,s Pa, and Lillian Thompson
of Boston. DR.. Joseph Simmons, coro-
ner's physician, after hasty examina-
tion of the bodies, declared the marks
and bruises were not such as to cause
death. Simmons said indications were
that death might have been caused by
alcohol poisoning. Simmons planned
to analyze stomaches of the two victims
today, Lieut.. John Norton, in charge
of the murder squad, expressed the
belief that the women froze to- death.
Three men were under arrest today.
James Meek Of Salt Lake City, and
Robert Mccarthy of Boston, electri-
clans with the "Smilin Through" COM
pany, were living in the building where
the dead women had an apartment.
Meek and Mccarthy said they had
rooms in the apartment of the two
women and shared the expenses. When
they left to go to work Saturday night,
the girls, Meeks and Mccarthy said,
went marketing. When their disap
pearance was discovered they were
trailed to delicatessen store where
the proprietor admitted selling them
couple of drinks Of wine" What
happened between the time they left
the delicatessen store and the finding
of their bodies was the mystery police
were attempting to unrave. Police
also sought man who early yester-
day called from an office in sky
scraper here and told them they
would nd the bodies of two women

showing up and the interest displayed
in the exhibits far Offset the aimless

REPORT SHOWS
MORE DECREASES
November Report of Manu-
facturers Shows Further
Curtailment.

A summary Of the November bulletin
issued today from the Office of the
Manufacturers association shows
slow brit continued decrease in the
number of employees in local indus
tries. On October LIST, the total man,
Der of operatives in all local factories
was 12,467 and on November 1st, 1864.
Indications point to a further decrease
in employees the present month. The
best guess that can be offered in re-
gard to revival of industry is that
January LIST will mark the beginning
of improved conditions, but it may be
March or April before the situation
reaches normal. At this time one pre-
diction is as good as another, although
some manufacturers are more optimist-
ic than others.
Single Men Leave City.
A survey of the rooming and board
ing houses shows that a very large
rumber of single men have ieft The
city. It is estimated by some tnat over
thousand young men have left the
city the past three weeks. Several va
cant flats also indicate that quite a
number Of families have moved away.
Many Of these expect to return to the
city as soon as conditions warrant.
Several factories will take inventory
earlier this year than usual. Some
shops have announced that this work
will commence the coming week. Dur
ing inventory time the plants will be
a. 81 IL
large amount of stock on hand, the
task will take come time. It is the
desire of the managers to clear the
decks for action so that if orders begin
to arrive with the opening of the new
year, there may be no delay in getting
started.
The employment departments Of each
industry are urged to place its files in
shape for checking with the records of
the central bureau. 1t has been the
custom for years to check annually,
but the rush business Of war and re-
construction delayed this work. With
the reduced number of operatives on
the various pay rolls, the work Of
checking will be considerably simpli-
fed.
Records of the Association Employ
ment Bureau for the month of October
show that practically the only persons
calling for help are the farmers. Over
one hundred persons have been direct
ed to jobs in the country the past four
weeks. In some cases as the harvest
of beets and cabbages, the work lasted
~ K,,L
farms are seeking experienced men for
six months or a year. The bureau is
constantly advertising for short job
calls that will help keep in employment
married men with families.

schools are, to say the least, not be-
hind one carefully examined eastern
system. While the visiting of the
schools and the observation Of teach

ure and benefit to me was derived from
the association with the educational
teachers whom the United States COM
missioner had assigned to take part in

conferences of great value in enabling
me to find out what these specialists
in various phases of school administra
tion regarded as necessary to sue
