AN7|-UNION MOVE
 BEING CRITICIZED
New Jersey Businessmen Deplore
 Open Shop Drives

Newark, N J., Jan. 31.-Some of New Jerseys biggest business men, members of a committee of indus trial relations of the New Jersey state chamber of commerce., in a report made public today, cautioned all em- poyers to avoid "anti-union CO., ercion', to steer clear of the various ''open shop" movements and to CO., operate with the workers in every pos- sbIe way. ..-
 The report pointed out that there are three roads open to employers. One is the road of constructive CO., operation between organizations of employees and those of workmen and a third is that of the "open shop" This last movement, in the opinio ] of the committee, is undermining the confidence of labor in employers and running the foundation for CO., operation between them"
 Similar campaigns in former per iods of depression" the report con- tinues, have only resulted in re- doubled growth of unionism and the adoption by it of more extreme meas ures in the periods of prosperity which followed and there is no req son to believe that the result of this campaign will be different. Campaigns of this nature are leading to oppres- sion by employers and are playing jn- to the hands of revolutionary ele- ments.
 The road of anti-union coercion appears to LIS to be dangerous. It ought by all means 10 be avoided"

SALVATION LASS|E
 GETS DRESS ORDER
Must Wear Skirts Seven Inches
 Above the Ground

Chicago, H., Jan. 31.--The skirts of Salvation Army lasses must not be more than seven inches above the street level, according to an order is- sued here today hy Commissioner William Peart, leader of the organ- zation in fifteen midwest states.
 "A few years ago we were trying to persuade our women to wear them shorter' said Commissioner Peart, in commenting upon the order. ''rhe skirt that trails in the dirt gathering germs is a menace to it's wearer's health; but the skirt that flaps around the knees is pretty much of a menace to the modesty of the woman who wears it. The skirt is about the only thing which doesn't appear to be coming down these days, and back to normalcy on the too short dress will do lot to protect the morals of the rising generation"
 Commissioner Pcart stated that the order would affect every Salvation Army member in 77 countries and where the organization oper- ates with the possible exception of China and Japan where most of the women wear trousers.

 Preparations to rage the walls of he theatcr were under way today, the
 earch of the ruins for victims having ,ccn completed yesterday.
 Reductions in the death list which !hc police early today believed would be final resulted from the tentative elimination of eight names for which the police have been unable to find my addresses. There are, moreover, no unidentified bodies which might account for these and d careful check of hospitals and undertaking cstab- ishments had failed to establish any ictims of these names. They are:
 p. N. Walsh, Miss NJ. E. Walsh, Mr. md Mrs. Russell Maine, Albert Bak- 1T, Paulus Lamby, w. NJ. Crawford, T. H. Fall.
