urged the management of all large
enterprises to use every precaution
and to check up on every applicant, no

The speaker said criminals are going
to most desperate lengths TO obtain
place on the payrolls of industrial and
financial institutions. Where the in

view, Mr.. Maxwell said, is to get an
outside confederate to open an account,
which. by forged entries on the books,
would admit Of fraudulent Withdrawals.
Other times the thieves probably are
after the business secrets of a concern
which would be sold to competitor,
he said, but more often the purpose is TO
have an accomplice with an Industrial

Mr.. Maxwell was asked after the meet

WOMEN'S AUXILIARY
NO MORE IN POLITICS
Katharine Davis Heads Revolt
Against Shifting Of Sex
to Side Lines.

The woman's auxiliary 10 anything ex-
cept church society is no longer to be
recoGy.sed by the recently enfranchised
sex. A group of new voters yesterday
declared themselves emphatically on this
score when they rebelled at being asked
by the Honest Ballot Association to help
raise $4,000 and do some watching at
the polls next autumn, all as members
OF a subsidiary committee of the parent
body.
The women. representing various ac-
tivities. were invited in good faith to
talk over the suggestion at q meeting at
West Eighth street. Miss Alice Car
penter presided and Stanley Howe,
member of the executive board of the
Honest Ballot Association explained why
he and others thought It advantageous to
call in as many women as they could get
to help with the campangn and then
retire. IL they so desired. after election.
DR.. Katharine Bement Davis dropped
the bomb Of rebellion into the midst OF
the gathering when she said. after an
nouncing that as vice-president she
should have been consulted about the
committee organization. that women
were getting tired Of being asked to
serve on women's committees.
why. refused to join woman's
committee of the Republican party for
that very reason" she declared.
"Its unwise in this day and genera
tion," addressing herself directly to Mr..
Howe, Ito ask women to come in and do
q share OF the work II you intend to
make them an auxiliary. There Is no
place for a woman's auxiliary anywhere
except in a church society. II you had
consulted me would have told you that
women will not be auxiliarfes. They
viii. OF course, help as committee men,
bers."
Mr. Howe replied that the first intima-
tion he had had that the women might
not be willing to become hardworking
adjuncts of the association was when he
discussed the question with Miss Mary
Garrett Hay, also a member of the
executive board OF the association. Miss
Hay had taken the same stand, he ad-
mitted.
Mrs. George hoffman, Mrs Walter
Timme and Mrs. Frederick G. Hodgdon
were others who declared their absolute
severance from the auxiliary. which
marks the beginning. some of them said,
OF a feminine protest against being left
out Of active participation in political
and civic affairs.
William NJ. Chadbourne, member OF
the executive commlttee, inaue an uh-
successful attempt to pacify the indig-
nant and rebellious women. but they
merely hecklel him until he finally with
drew and left the meeting in the hands
Of Miss Carpenter and Mr.. Howe.
"Oh. we'll organize a committee.
feel sure the women want to join, but
we'll have to call it something else.
Mr.. Howe said hopefully.
But as the quartet proceeded down
stairs. headed by DR.. Davis. the rum
blings OF rage were not too encouraging.
The association will hold another wom-
ems meeting soon at which the question
will be discussed further. IL Is import
ant that the association have a large
fund. to bo used in part for paid watch
ers in order to insure an honest vote
and an honest count at the next election,
Mr.. Howe said. The women are invited
70 join as non-partisans.

Old decorative
Persian
Oil Jars
AU QUATRIEME

Old Persian oil jars with
a glaze that has the quality
Of some priceless enamel.
are now arranged on the
Bridge between Au Qua
tricnc and the New Build
ing. so that one may see all
the forms and all the lovely
colors in which they may
be had.
There are jars Of gorgeous tur-
quoise blue. Really turquoise
blue. with the same deep green
blue that distinguishes the tur-
quoise stone. Somehow the oil
has seepcd through the porous
lining Of these jars and has given
the color and glaze its rare quality.
Besides the turquoise blue jars.
there are jars OF the soft melting
grays. traced with blue or darker
gray and in soft tan and neutral
colos patterned with irregular
Persian motifs. For lamps and
for decorative use where a spot
Of lovely color and delicious high
light is needed, these are really
exquisite.
Yesterday. a dealer came Au
Quahiemc and asked the price Of
these jars. When we told him
$35 and $50. he said that there
must be some mistake. because
he had some Of these fine old jars
in his shop. and they we're priced
from SIS to 500. But there was
no mistake. because that is what
these Persian oil jars are being
sold for Au Quatieme.
