 sonally and to urge action against those suspected, follows:
 ''Six weeks have elapsd since my mother was cruelty killed. The nor- rible crime aroused the entire coun- try and numerous investigations, of ficial and unofficial. were 1mned diate1y started in an effort to discover who committed the murder From the very first. the official investigators bungled their work in unbelievable fashion. I am informed that this in excusabie bung1ing may not have been due to gross ignorance only. Dut that other factors were at work. I do not want to believe that anything can influence the course of justice in the state of New Jersey, but I am confronted with the glaring fact that my mother has been dead for six weeks and outside of the so-called Investigations not a thing has pee,- tice.
 s'I do not seek the blood of anyone in return for the blood of my mother I seek nothing but simple justice to avenge this most horrible crime.
 The papers report Prosecutor Mott as saying. and I have every req son to believe it is true, that he has sufficient evidence to accuse certa n persons of the murder. Why has noth ng been done?
 'I appeal to you, the chief execu- tive of a great state, to act personally in my demand for the arrest of the guilty persons who killed my mother. here has been enough of talk about the crime, but not enough of action. My mothers blood cries out from her grave against this inactivity and I her daughter. join in the heart drawn cry: Why has nothing been done towards arresting the persons or per son who murdered my mother?"

GLASS WORKS ACTIVE

tiser Reporter When lie Visited the
Plant Monday

i1hht Monday.
What proved to be a bedlam of ac-
tiVity was found in visit to the Lau-
rcns Glass Works by an Advertiser
reporter one day this week.
Everywhere throughout the plant,
men were hustling with activity From
below the immense furnace whore tho
plant makes its own gas, to the OK
IRENE opposite end, where multitudcs
or bottles are packed ready to be
shipped, the men and boys, some
Wh1stling, and all apparently content
ed, went on with their work with uni
form regularity. 1t appeared by it's
activity to be similar to the immense
plants where war materials were once
made, but instead OF war material
there are bottles, soft drink bottles,
perfume bottles and more bottles.
The glass works resumed operations
after being shut down for several
months during the period of depres-
sion. 1t now employs approximately
40 men, fifteen Of whom are skilled
glass blowers and it's production has
reached 200 to 25O gross bottles day.
Mr. Robert Roper, secretary OF the
works stated that it is contemplated
soon to add another shift of worlsmen
since orders are coming in as in nor
mai times.

around the U-shaped table and into
the hollow square few minutes after
the session began. One after another
Secretary Hughes, Senator Lodge,
Senator Underwood and Elihu Root
wrote their names to the FIVE agree

token Of approval, the seals already
act, opposite the spaces left for his

A hum OF conversation kept up
throughout the hall, interrupted by
applause as each OF the American
delegates rose and gave way for the
next to sign. All of the foreign dele
