WOMEN VOTERS IGNORED.
Get Empty Honors From q. o. r.
BOSSES In Penna.

Philadelphia. August 26.-- Women
voters of the Republican stripe have
awakened to the fact. long known to
others. that they have not been taken
seriously by the Organization" lead
ers, but were given honorary positions
in the manner toys are given chill
eren to keep them quiet. In other
words, they now realize that they
got compliments only and were not
considered of sufficient Importance to
be consulted when the bosses were
writing states for paying offices or
worthy of n place on those states.
A declaration OF the sad awakening
was made yesterday by Mrs. John
wanamaker. Sd. who was honored
with the high sounding title of as
sistant secretary OF the Nare-con-
trollcd City Committee when the So
called "sik stocking wing of the
G. O. y. was recognized with great
acclaim by the cohorts assembled al
Eleventh and Chestnut streets. Incl
dentally the independents are also ac-
cused of having snubbed the women
voters, the Democrats alone having
recognized the new element in politics
by writing the name of a woman on
their slate for county Offices. The
declaration of Mrs. Wanamaker, made
more in sorrow than in anger and
tailed TO give the Democrats credit
tor their consideration.

Mr.. wettling testified that If the

existed before the increase Of August
26, 1920. the annual return. to the
railroads in the Western district would
be only 1.67 per cent on their tenta-
tive valuation as fixed by the com
mission. He said this would result in
spite OF the wage reduction recently
made effective by the Railway Labor
Board. and added that there would be
a loss OF approximately s6S, zoo. 900 to
the Western railroads at time when
they We're earning only 2A per cent
on their tentative valuation.
MIR. Wettling declared that the roads
in the Western district were hit hard

RELIEF FOR IDLE
IS DEMANDED BY
UNION WORKERS
A. +. of L. Committee Would
Devote Credit of Nation to
Public Works.
1T OPPOSES WAGE CUTS

Atlantic City. August 26.-The
Executive Council of the American
Federation of Labor yesterday called
upon the Federal and State govern
ments to aid i'm the relief of the un
employment situation by "immedi-
ately concerning themselves with put
ting into operation processes of pro-
duction for public Improvement OF
buildings. roads, etc, and to use the
credit of the country for the en-
courasement of productive processes.
The Councils proclamation also
called upon organized and inorganic
ed wage earners ITO resist attempts
at wage reductions and urge all the
people to join in the demand that our
processes of production be stabilized
and that the well-organized and con-
certed effort of the exploiters OF our
land for the further reduction of
wages of men who. even today, can
not live in decency and comfort, shall
come to an immediate end.
The recent campaign for the reduc-
tion of wages, declared the Councils
statement. has not reflected itself
proportionally in the lowering OF
prices.
"on the contrary. we find prices
and the cost OF living increasing" it
was added What it has accom-
plished has been 10 create a lack of
confidence in our productive proc
esses. Every reduction in wages has
only increased the desire to withhold
production in the hope and belief that
stin further reductions of wages will
take place"
'sThe unemployment situation is
nearing a dangerous crisis. and unless
dealt with in an efficient, intelligent
and humane fashion the coming winter
may find the feeding of the hungry
and the starving not alone n problem
OF the Old World, but problem of the
New World.
Unemploy due TO production
The present unemployment is due
To non-production on the part OF en-
ployers and the constant and per-
sistent efforts being made TO lessen
the ability of the great mass of our
people-the wage earners Of our land
to purchase the commodities and
necessities of life.
"If production is 70 be enhanced,
the consumption ability of the people
must be enlarged. 1t has been dem
onstrated that reducing wages does
not inCi ease production.
Wages have been lowered in many
instances and in all cases every sort
OF promise has been made for an in
creased production. and yet We have
today the greatest number of unem-
ployed workers as a by-produce to an
Industrial, commercial and financial
system"
President Samuel Gon1pers in an
address before the Atlantic City XII
wants Club yesterday declared the
movement for disarmament con-
ference was originally the idea OF the
American Federation of Labor.
