gerry fame. Others write pleading let
ters to be admitted for treatment.
The waiting room of the hospital has
been crowded for the last two days
with children brought by their parents
to tell their stories for listing by Mrs.
Laura Southwick. who has taken up the
work of preparing schedule of treat

pace, he did not appear, as tired last
night as he did earlier in the week. He
and his friends realize, however, that he
cannot bear up If he examines all the
cases which come before him. He still
IS troubled with nervous indigestion, due
largely to the fact that the food here Is
richer than that TO which he had been
accustomed in Austria.
1t was announced that SLAP has been
raised from patients DR.. Lorenz has ex-
amined or treated. The sums range
from ten cents to ten dollars. DR.. Lorenz
probably will senc the money to Vienna

medical students and members of the
profession. He has spoken frequently OF
he plight in which all professional peo-
Pile in Vienna have found themselves
since the war.
DIR. Lorenz issued a statement praising
the institutions participating in the
United Hospital Fund and urging that
the fund be supported.
IT am deeply impressed" he said,
"wi'' the service these great institutions
render to the unfortunate of every race,
creed and color. When a cripple enters
the clinic and asks for help no questions
are raised about his religion or national
ty He is a sufferer and that Is enough.
He gets whatever help the hospitals can
give him, whether he can pay for it or
not.
Without these hospitals, each of them
wonderful In it's way, such work as l am
doing would be impossible"

BELIEVES CONTRACTORS

District Attorney Supports
Proposed LoU.

District Attorney Harry E. Lewis. re-
ferring to the recent collapse of the
American Theatre on Bedford avenue,
Brooklyn, with its toll of seven lives,
stated yesterday that he was in favor
of law requiring general contrao tors
who erect buildings to become licensed.
Il believe that it y just as necessary
to license a builder as it Is to license
physician to practise" he said. "a
physician can kill but one man at q
time; builder may kill thousand"
District Attorney Lewis's investigators
have not as yet completed their inves-
tigation Of the disaster and ruins but
probably will be prepared Monday to
report to him.
The police were asked to look for the
body of Patsy de Boni In the ruins. A
brother, Joseph, said Patsy had been
working on the American Theatre job
He wasn't sure. however, that he had
been working there the day of the

that thousands of suits would be in
volved against hundreds of employers,
equity would take jurisdiction in a sim
gle action, both TO avoid the multiple
ity OF suits and on the broader ground
that il has become an incident TO the
main action to enjoin further violations
of the agreement
To Open Door for Members.
"If you agree with me, l would like
this subject taken up by the union with
a view to charging the scope Of the
complaint so as 10 permit every ag-
grieved union member to come in under
the interlocutory judgment and prove
his claim against his employer. In
taking such a course the union would
after all be doing no more than to in
woke the rule laid down by the courts
in the Danbury hatters case, in which
the boycotted employers were permitted
to recover against all union members"
Mr. Hillquit replied to Mr. Untermyer
and agreed with him in every particular.
He said that as soon as Mr.. Schlesinger' s
consent Is obtained he would prepare
the necessary papers and submit them to
Mr.. Untermyer for approval.
A letter also was made public last
night from Samuel Gompers in which
he said that the American Federation of
Labor approved the course pursued by

Manufacturers, 1t Is Con-
tended, Violated Contract
With Employees.
GOMPERS FAvORs STAND
Union Has $4,000 Members,
Who Received Total of
S3,0O0,OO0 Weekly.

A suit that may be the reverse of
the famous "Danbury Hatters'" case
and cost the members of the Cloak
Suit and Skirt Manufacturers Protec-
tive Association more than $4,000, 900
in damages is threatened by the In
ternational Ladies' Garment Workers
Union. Benjamin Schlesinger, presi-
dent of the union, announced last
night that by advice of Samuel I'm
termyer the union would follow up its
injunction action against the protec-
tive association by a suit to recover
individual wages lost by every person
who was in the employ OF members
of the ASSOCIATION.
The union has about $4,000 members
in this city. and their weekly wages
before the strike totalled about SO, ,000,-
goo. according to a statement made
by the manufacturers association at
began November IA, so that about
S9,000,000 has been lost so far by the
union members. Besides 5000 work.
ers not members OF the union were
thrown out of work by the strike, and
their wages and those Of designers
and higher paid employees would run
weekly from s750,000 to $1,000, 900, it
Is said. Presumably, however, these
would not be included in the unions
suit.
I'VE are simply going to see II the
Danbury hatters' case works both
ways" said Mr.. Schlesinger. In that
case the manufacturers sued the United
Hatters OF North America and recov-
cred. In this case tho union will sue
the manufacturers"
Would Include All I'm Suit.
Mr. ScL'esnger made public also a
letter tnat Mr.. Untermyer wrote to Nor
ris Hil.Iuit, counsel for the union, ad-
vising that the summons and complaint
in the injunction action should be
amended to include all members of the
protective association.
my reason for this wrote Mr. In
termyer. SIS that as a result of further
study of the subject l am satisfied that
the suit may be made vastly more COM
prehensive and far reaching, so as to
afford relief that has not heretofore
been considered as likely to be within
the scope OF an action of this character.
1T is my opinion that IL our clients
can establish. as l have no doubt they
can, that the contract was violated by
the manufacturers, the complainants in
this action may secure an interlocutory
Judgment in a form that will enable
every employee OF the association mem
bers to secure judgment against his
employer for his loss OF wages until the
date of the expiration of the contract
The total damage will, of course. de-
pend upon the duration of the strike.
but will in any event amount to several
million dollars.
"The agreement in question IS dis
tinctly alleged to have been made and
can doubtless be proved to have been
made By the association on behalf Of
each and every member and by the
union on behalf Of each and every
worker. Its benefits inure to each mem-
Der and it's obligations are imposed upon
each member. It Is as though each
worker had a separate agreement with

Boy Retrievers
In Training for
Tennis Tourney
Philadelphia Realizes That
Singles Championships
Will Need Good Chasers

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 5s-One of
the most unique try-outs that this city
ever has seen took place at the Ger
mantown Cricket Clubs big field at
Mannheim yesterday, when sixty-five
boys dashed about, stumbling, stopping
and endeavoring to retrieve bounding
lawn tennis balls as they shot over the
velvety turf
The contest, under the direction of
Henry Hemer, was a try-olt Of the
boys who aspired to the position Of
"ball boy for. the lawn tennis tourna-
ment for the championship of America,
which begins Friday at the German
town Cricket Club and lasts for a week.
During this tournament, in which
scores of matches are to be played,
with fifty-four scheduled the first day,
one of the most important elements in
making the tournament success is q
corps of "ball boys" who retrieve the
balls that pass outside of the courts
and are out of play, of those which are
hit into the net.
In championship tournament no time
is taken by the players in chasing balls
out OF play. This is left to the "txll
boys" So also it is the case with those
hit into the net. But it is important
that the boy do his work speedily,
adroitly and without lingering on the
court, stumbling about or interfering
with the play or holding it up for any
length Of time. Good "ball boys" make
a tournament and poor retrievers mar
it. They are even more important in
this respect than the golf caddies.
AS Philadelphia never before has had
national championship tournament
the Germantown officials were con-
fronted in this case with. the necessity
Of training its own "ball boys" Harry
Homer, the property man" for the
tournament, undertook the task and
after several days of training finally
yesterday picked out sixty-fiye and gave
them their final lesson.
