Gifts Are Undisturbed.

Burglars entered the home of Justice
vfedsrick Spiegelberg of the Municipal
Court at 3s West seventy-sixth street
early Wednesday and got away with
shout $50 pieces OF flat siiverware from
the dining room, it was learned yester-
day. Many valuable pieces received by
Justice and Mrs. Spiegelberg on their
twenty-fifth wedding anniversary were
within reach of the thieves. but they
were frightened away while at work.
said Mrs. Spiegelberg.
It was late when Justice and Mrs.
spfegeloerg retired Tuesday night and

story dwelling. Just what caused ths
burglars to leave so hurriedly IL not

GARMENT WORKERS
GET 40 HOUR WEEK
Time Lengthened and Wages
Unchanged, but the Piece
System Is Revived.

The executive committee os the Cloak.
Suit ana Skirt Manufacturers Protective
Association announced last night that be-
ginning November IA the working time
Of all factory operatives would be ex-
tended from forty-four to forty-nine
hours week, and that the pece work
system would be installed instead of the
present week work system. Forty-nine
hours constituted a week prior to 1919,
and the piece work system was also in
operation then. "in place of the present
experimental and disastrous week work
system"
The action was decided upon at q
meeting Of the executive committee yes
terday afternoon. It is the change from
week work back to piece work--the asso-
citation announced that there would be no
reduction in wages--that has been the
controversial point between the associa.
tion and the officials of the International
Ladies' Garment Workers Union. The
union frequently has threatened a strike
in the industry If the manufacturers at
tempted to lengthen the weekly hours Of
labor and install the piece work system
again. and It Is likely that some action
by the union will be taken within a few
days.
In statement issued by the Protec-
tive Association over the signature OF A.
e. Lefcourt It was said that the increase
in the hours of labor and the installation
Of the piece system are necessary to
save the cloak and suit industry. The
statement says that women's clothing
has reached such high prices that the
buyers have rebelled, and that the only
thing that will awaken the buying public
from Its lethargy Is lower prices, and
that lower prices are not possible under
tire present system Of shop manage
ment.
The International Union did not issue
any statement yesterday or take any
action In regard to the action of the
operators. but Joseph Schlossberg. gem
eral secretary of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers OF America, said that
the Amalgamated would support the In
ternational in every way in the event Of
q strike.

LIFE OF BOY, AGED 5,

Justice Cannon Refuses to
Change Verdict Higher Than
Usual Award.

supreme Court Justice Cannon stated
a child's life to it's parents is the most
speculative of all calculations" He re-
fused to set aside a verdict of $4,000 re-
covered by Carmine Persico of 1850 At

Commonwealth Fuel Company for the

boy was hit by one OF the company's

was instantly killed through the negli-
gence of the defendant. A carefully Sc

counsel as to the rule of damages. has
appraised the value of his life at $4,000.
The motion now is to set aside the ver-
dict as excessive. Suggestion is made
that the courts generally approximate
$500 in cases of this character.
sI shall not disturb the findings OF the
fury. The responsibility is with the jury
and il in this most speculative OF all
calculations jury may consider not only
the chances of the parents to voluntary
assistance through life, but even their
possible advantage by testamentary gift

cation. premature death or ingratitude OF
the child, what possible scientific rule
can be applied?
'1t might be more satisfactory to fix
a rule upon contingency tables to be
adopted, so that the jury could be in
structed that in case OF plaintiff ver-
dict they should find in certain fixed
amount, adjusted to different ages. But,
as the law stands. cannot bring myself
to say that the verdict here is excessive =

gardless of a persons apparent health.
u is IAN easy matter for a practiced
physician to detect the teli-taIe nodule

Fight With the World, Compromises on Stepfather's
Promise of Forgiveness, and Is Going Home.

Robert Mclean OF si9 West Twenty

day when he received his card from his

cided that the only thing to do was to
run away from home. because he is only

that there are worse things in the world
than being spanked.
He tore up the card and threw away
the pieces, and then he started out to
combat the world, for to look and for

proper career for n young man who
wanted to make his way in the world
was that of messenger or cleaner in a

has been inevitable when plans FOR
the organization for another term

This year, however, when the

precisely what new subjects they are
TO teach upon the opening OF schools
and can prepare themselves accord

they are TO be promoted or trans
