iliZation. Let us hope a science so
fraught with either good or vicious
possibilities may be turned, through
the wisdom of the nations, to the
benefit and advancement of man
kind"
The condition of Americas organic
chemical industry was described as
follows in the resolutions adopted:
In spite of the tremendous strides
made during the past five years in
the United States, this important in
dustry is still centered in Germany.
Other nations have sought to safe
guard its future in their countries by
appropriate legislation. America
stands hesitant.
Indeed, the very industry is threat
ened with destruction. We urge on
congress the necessity of including in
the permanent tariff bill a seiectlve
embargo for a limited period against
importation of synthetic organic chem
lcais, and we express the confident
hope that in view of the important
| bearing of such action on economical
development and on national defense
our representatives, regardless of DO
litical affiliations, will support this
legislation.

ORDERS
WAGE CUTS IN
SETTLING ROW
Protest Against Changes in
Scales to be. Held Soon
By Labor Forces

CHICAGO, Sept T. Wage reduc-
lions OF from 10 to 33 per cent for
many classes of construction workers
in Chicago were made today by Judge
Lands in a decision which, it was be-
leved, would end the controversy and
open the way for projects valued at
$50,O00,000. The old pay was S1.25 an
nour. Considering the elimination of
all restrictions on labor saving ma
chinery and materials save prison
made, Judge Lands estimated the
saving IN actual cost of building
would be about 20 per cent.
While builders and architects de-
cla1ed the decision the most momen-
tous ruling of it's kind building trades
officials refused comment, but at
once planned meeting to protest
against certain wage reductions or
dered Ma
T. S. Kearney, president of the Chi
ca2o Building Trades Council, while
admitting that the decision is binding
on the crafts agreeing to abide by
Judge Lands decision, declared that
he ieared the men may individually
decline to go to work at the wage set
A meeting to decide in what form
their protest will be made, is to be
held tomorrow by representatives OF
the building trades. No. direct action
will ensue, however, until after a
meeting of the council on Friday.
President Kearney said "some OF
the workers felt Judge Lands. had
Eeen in error in making the cuts in
certain trades, and That if the matter
is properly brought to his attention
some changes may be procured"
Predictions that the decision will
be used as a basis for settling similar
difficulties in other cities were made
by builders who expressed pleasure
over the judges findings.

ACTION AGAINST
DYES MONOPOLY
URGED CONGRESS
American Chemical Society
Says u. S. Industry Will
Be Forced to Wall

NEW YORK, Sept. 7. - The Amer
lean Chemical Society today called
on congress to save by a selective
embargo Americas organic chemical
industry, alleged to be threatened
with destruction by Germany
This appeal was contained in a res
olution adopted at a convention of the
society after Francis P. Caravan, FORM
er alien property custodian had charg-
ed in an address that the German
dye monopoly controlled certain men,
bers of congress and that German
agents were once more plotting
against Americas security. The So
ciety also adopted a resolution urg-
ing on the limitation of armament con
ference most serious consideration
of the broad question of chemical dis
armament as affected by the develop
ment and maintenance of the chemi-
cal industries of the several nations y
Adoption of the resolution was fol-
lowed by the reading of a letter from
President Harding.
Probably none of the materialistic
sciences holds promise of so great
contributions to human welfare as
that which your organization repre-
sents," he wrote. The development
of applied chemistry involves both
the possibility of vastly increased hor-
rors in human conflict and ultimately
inestimable benefits to a peaceful civ.

find anybody and remembers that he
returned to his room but can remem-
Der no more. When he woke the next
morning his mind was clouded. He
felt i'll and drowsy and could remem-
Der little of what had happened He
found that $50 had been removed from
the clothes which were in his room.
The apartment of Mr.. and Mrs Has
cal Snodgress, in the Van Horn room
ing house on School Hill, was entered
Monday night by a burglar who took
a ring and some money from Mr.
Snodgrass' clothes. Snodgrass owns
the rooming house and lives on the
ground floor. The screen Sdoor OF his
apartment was hooked, but the thief
made several small holes in the
screen and succeeded in christening
the door. He entered the room where
Air. and Mrs. Snodgrass were asleep,
carried Snodgrass' clothes out onto
the porch and rifled them. He took the
money and ring but did not bother
with a watch that was in the trousers
1t appears that most of the house
breaking is being done by the same
man as the same method is used in
each case to gain entrance. His work
is skillful and the only loot he takes
is money or valuables that are easy
to dispose of The man does not hes
itate to enter room where people are
sleeping.

the balance of the entire figure.
People with turned up noses should
avoid narrow hats which droop over
the face. Those which have slightly
rolling brims are usually becoming.
Thin faces look longer and thinner
if the hats have high pointed trim
ming. Those which tilt slightly for
ward and have wide brims are usually
becoming.
Trimming is usually placed at the

is not an arbitrary rule as the hat
may be more becoming if il is trim

Round hats are not becoming to

To the Editor of the Dillon Herald
Please sir, allow me space in your
columns to make an inquiry.
| l want to ask the public in general
OF the Dillon Graded School District
il there is one single good reason
why we should have the two session
per day system here. L have talked
about this thing to different people
foi the past two years and have
never found but one man in the town
OF Dillon who favored the two ses-
sion system. He was a man who had
grown children in the High School
grades. Possibly there is some reason
in favor of the system for the High
School grades.
But what is the rhyme or reason
for children in the second grade to go
to the school house and cross the
Coast Line death trap four times a
day? For that matter what is the
rhyme or reason for any children un-
der the 9Th grade to cross the rail-
road four times a day?
l have never heard a teacher favor
the plan. and 1 have never heard of
any parents of the children under the
sixth grade who favored it,
1 taught school myself four years
and 1 know that any teacher is alb
and work they do after that can
be no good.
If we need more teachers, we should
iget them. The fact that we keep
teachers at the school house an un-
reasonable number of hours does not
means that they can do the work; no
one can work at anything if they
are exhausted.
One dozen children under the
charge of any business man of the
town of Dillon after two hours would
utterly unnerve and exhaust him
Why then expect a teacher to be SUI
perhuman? The mind cannot work
but certain length of time and
when exhausted cannot go any fur
ther.
But as for the small children un-
der the sixth grade as aforesaid their
studies are not such as that it is nee
essary for them to stay there the
lengh of time required.
The idea of my little girl seven
years old or any other little girl sew
en- years old crossing that railroad
four times day is absurd, and is
for" absolutely no purpose except to
maintain the two session day princi-
pie. For children of that age to come
home for 80 minutes and to go back
to spend one more hour at the school
house is unreasonable.
But the main thing in my mind is,
no one defends the system, no one
wants 1t, no mother especially wants
it that 1 know of; and why should
the system be maintained? AS afore-
said, 1 want someone who does favor
it to tell me why
Very truly,
