RoBRED HAIR PROHIBITED
FOR HACERSToWN NURSES

HAGERSTowN. Nd. Aug. 81
The controversy over bobbed hair
which ragged here for several months
broke out anew today when Miss En-
ma X. Glover, superintendent of the
Washington county hospital, issued
an order prohibiting nurses from
bobbing their hair. One nurse
bobbed her tresses and the order fol
lowed
II am certainly opposed to boboed
hair for trained nurses" Miss Glover
said. Il think II dreadful for a girl
TO. go among ill patients with bobbed
hair. 1t is following the frivolous
flaper style and is entirely out of
keeping with the uniform and the
dignity of the profession. Personally
/ admire bobbed hair on young girls
but I believe a nurse wearing her
hair in this style is out Of place in a
sick room"

It was necessary to graft fourteen

leaders have decided 20 propose TO
President Harding as soon as he re-
turns TO Washington in case he will not
agree to raising the necessary funds
by some means other than n sales tax.
There is growing doubt as 70
whether a bonus measure can be put
through Congress at this session. and
Senators Curtis OF Kansas, Lodge OF
Massachusetts and Watson OF Indiana
have been chosen as a committee to
confer with the President. probably on
Monday. and as last resort in removing
complications to urge on him the utili-
zation Of the interest and part OF the
principal OF the foreign debt to meet
the bonus payments.
This committee has no other plan in
mind, and il is generally assumed that
IL will put this one plainly and spc-
cifcally before Mr.. Harding and that
IL he will not agree on any Senate
plan or suggest some other method
OF working out plan he will be urged
to recommend TO Congress that action

would be By n general return 70 work
With "un-American subversion OF
law and order" said Mr. Hooper's
statement, the shopmen had rcsorted
TO the strike weapon. The statement
added:

outrage upon public deeency and would

Chairman llooper's statement cited
the decision Of the maintenanee-of-

pending further peaceable negotiS

strikers, had announced that he would
make no further efforts toward concili-
alton and insisted that "the men have
been forced out much against their

Serious disorders in connection with
the shopmen's strike were reported
from various localities. In ChicafS

sorted 20 the torch, in what the police
say was an effort 10 destroy 100 ears

DESTROYED had been sealed after the
fire was started. The fire department
worked an hour and half before
getting the flames under control.
Burnside Riot Feared
This fire was the only act OF yio-
lence reported in Chicago up 20 this
evening. but fears were felt that riot
