Care Of the Hair.

II the woman who wants to i'm
prove her hair will make herself a
little routine and follow it out, she
cannot fail to notice q remarkable
difference in the health and beauty

~ OH have been quoted in the daily
press as openly charging that certain
members OF this asso 'iation proposed
to you that strikes and lock-outs be ar
ranged III the New York market for the
purpose Of curtailing PRODUCTION so as
TO keep Up the price Of clothing. This
is most serious charge, and the pub
lie and we are entitled to proof.
Demand is hereby made upon you
that you either retract your indlct-
ment or make public the names Of the
manufacturers who made the proposal
and the full details"
Mr.. Hillman last night took up Mr..
Bandler's challenge and forwarded to
i''4t eiS ICitoNll lliS 1SpiS.
The statement | made in the city of
Boston on December %. 1920, was pre-
faced by the remark that 4 shall be
ready to substantiate such statement
publicly before any regularly consti-
tuted governmental body hope in
the near future to have the oppor-
tunity to do so.
you will agree with me that you
and the members of your association
involved in this lock out are not the
persons to pass upon the facts
Mr.. Bandler yesterday substantiated d
rumors that number of manufac-
turers were removing their factories
TO other cities as result of the

that were removing their plants or the

Remove Welcome Sign
Miss kelior Reports Rome Has
Inquired as to ACCESSIBILITY
of Refusing PASSWORDS

4 fear that Italians who contempla.o
emigration to this country will not be
made welcome by the United States has
prompted the Italian government to
communicate with the State Depart
ment at Washington, with the object Of
withholding passport vises, provided
the American authorities believe suca
action advisable
Miss Frances A. Kelor. vice-chal--
man of the 1nterracial Council and
an authority on immigration. made this
statement yesterday. when she declared
that the uneasy feeling in Italy had
been induced by the feeling expressed
IN this country that European coun-
tries are trying to dump their dan
serous radicals and undesirables on the
United States
Just returned from Europe, whe- -e
she made study of emigration condi-
tlons, Miss Kellor predicted thas othec
nations would follow the lead of the
Rome government and relieve this
country Of the necessity OF passing
emergency legislation designed to re-
strict immigration.
"Woull it not b. WISE" Miss Kellor
asked yesterday, ''to have Congress in
vestigate the situation before passing
any legislation on immigration? The
least We could do would be to await a
report from Commissioner General
Caminel'i, who is low abroad studying
conditions.
Apart from suspending immigration
Of Italians, such action by Italy may
increase the outt cund movement of
Italians from Ame.ica, as many INN =
grants undoubtedly will want to re-
Unite with their families at home. The
tendency, moreover, will be to increase
the transmission Of money to Italy"
