To FILE DAMAGE
SUITS AGAINST
GARMENT FIRMS
Between Three and Four
Million Dollars Will Be
Asked BY Strikers AS Re-
suit of Court Decision.
tBy The Associated Press.

New York, Jan. 11.--Suits for
sums totaling between three and
four million dollars. representing
wages lost by the $4,000 garment
workers who have been on strike
for two months, will be filed
against New York garment manu-
facturers as a result of Supreme
Court Justice Wagner's action to-
day in enjoining the manufactur-
ers from combining to enforce a
49-hour week and piece work
system.
Benjamin Schlessinger. president
Of the International Ladies Car
ment Workers unionl on whose ap-
plication the injunction was grant
ed, announced steps were being
taken to prepare the action.
Decision Far Reaching.
Justice Wagher-s action. repre-
senting the first time in the history
of labor disputes that a great labor
organization has invoked legal ae-
ton to restrain employers from
breaking a contract. Is considered
one of the most important and far
reaching decisions ever handed
down in the interests of labor in
the United States.
Max Steuer. attorney for the
Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manufac-
turers' Protective association. de-
clared he has prepared an appear
from Justice Wagner's ruling to be
filed with the appellate division Of
the state supreme court.
In effect Justice Wagner held
that the garment manufacturers
had illegally combined to compel
all members of their organization
to enforce the 49-hour week and
the piece work system in all New
York shors, a direct violation of
an agreement between the employ
ers and workers providing for a
44-hour week and the week-work
system.
This agreement does not expire
until June 1 of this year.
Justice Wagner granted a per-
manent and mandatory injunction,
which attorneys for the strikers
declare will compel the manufac-
turers to reinstate their old em-
ployes under the conditions Of the
existing agreement.
Samuel Untermyer disagreed
with Morris Hillquit, who is asso-
ciated with him as strikers coun-
sci as to the value of the use of the
by labor in It's fights
against employers.
Champion of Labor.
"As lifelong champion of
labor" Mr.. Untermyer said, II be-
lieve in the wisdom, jud cment and
efficiency of the Injunction in labor
While agreeing that the decision
Is an importans moral victory Tor
labor as a whole, ana
stating that it was an act of just
and poetic justice TO
hurl both of such missiles against
Its inventors" Mr.. Hillquit con-
tends union labor can never adopt
this means as a continuously ef-
fective procedure against the en-
ployers.
'Iniunctions against employers
never can be as drastic as those is
sued against labor" he said.
He contends that the employers
smaller in numbers
Than those of the workers, can
easily find ways of circumventing
The provisions. Il
One of the principal merits OF
The precedent established in this
decision he said, "is that it will
end to make injunctfons less pop
liar with employers. / hope 1t will
cad to the eventual complete abo-
ltion of judicial interference in
abor disputes by means of injunc-
ions"

P. F. MCANNA

A friend to every man
and woman in Albuquer-
que has passed over the
boundary Rich and poor,
democrat and republican,
catholic and protestant,
found the way to his door
for counsel and SYM
pathy.
He crossed all factional
lines and was a friend to
every man. He gave
freely of his sound sense.
He was ready always to
render a service.
Never money mad, he
yet left a comfortable
competency for those de-
pendent upon him. He
never sacrificed honor or
self-respect in order to
add to his fortune. He
took no more than the
service he rendered fairly
gave him.
He was the soul of
honor; delighted in his
friendships and had a
kindly feeling for the
whole world.
The property he left
behind is the least of the
heritage he gave to his
children. His reputation
is their dearest legacy.
p. F. McCanna was an
example Of the ideal hus-
band, father, friend and
citizen. His city mourns
his sudden and untinely
death. On behalf Of all
the people the Journal
extends sympathy to those
left behind.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE fight
in the senate over the right Of
Truman II. Newperry, republican,
of Michigan, to a seat, which has
been contested by Henry Ford, his
opponent in the 1918 election, con-
tinued today and when the session
ended tonight predictions of the
outcome generally were held in
allegiance, so uncertain has the re-
suit become. 1t was agreed among
leaders, that the outcome rested on
the final position to he taken by
fewer than half a dozen members,
whose attitude has not been dis

Hopes for a vote today were
dashed by last minute demands OF
senators desiring more time to
speak Even an attempt by Sem
ator Spencer, republican, Missouri,
who is leading the Newberry sup
porters, to obtain IN agreement to
vote at o'clock tomorrow was
blocked, Senator King, democrat,

gested that the agreement nigh

brought up.
New Resolutions.
The introduction Of two new res
olutions dealing with Mr.. New

tage Of the opportunity.
The resolutions, both to declare
the seat vacant, were by Senators
Owen. Oklahoma, and Walsh OF
Montana, democrats. Mr.. Owen
said he had sought to eliminate all
disputed points in the controversy
so that the senate could determine
solely whether it VS. sound public
policy that such large amounts OF
money should be expended in
campaign. Mr.. Walsh's resolution
represented a recasting of his orig
inal proposition declaring the seat
vacant but redrafted Ito express

senates views with respect to the
welfare of the nation, when large
sums of money are used in a cam

Move TO Rccommit.
The possibility of a democratic
move to seek to recommit the
whole case to the senate elections
and privileges committee, tempo
rarily set aside today, was talked
of again after the debate. No de-
cision was reached, however.
Efforts to get pairs arranged
for and against the seating of Mr.

through abscntees. The pairings
arranged today were: Senators DI

A dress that looks well on a hanger
in a store may not be the dress for
woman to wear, even though 1t is
perfect fit and it's color is the most
becoming possible. Its lines may be
wrong. Perpendicular lines cause the
eve of an observer. to travel up and
down. If tall slender lady wears
a skirt with wide stripes running up
and down, the eyes of those who look
at her do the same and consequently
she seems even taller and more slend

July 24.--Opium smugglers resort to
every possible method of smuggling
opium into Shanghai from the south
ern ports, according to Captain NJ. S.
Monkman, of the S. S. Soochow.
Captain Monkman, who has been
sailing up the China coast for more
than twenty-five years, knows more
about opium growing and smuggling
than has ever been written, and he
spins some wicked yarns.
One night at dinner he told us how
