DISEASE RIFE IN
SWEATSHOP HELLS
OF new YORK CITY
Dresses Made for ST. 90,
Sell for $3.50

NEW York; the state of New
York wants to end home industries
where women and children work
long hours for small pay it will make
these home workers dependent on
charity for living, it was testi-
led at hearings before the state Child
Welfare Commission here.
Children two and three years old
are working on artificial flowers in
New York. Beaded dresses and
clicked silk hose which are later
sold for high prices in the most
expensive shops are worked on in
homes often by people with COM
municable diseases, it was said.
Children who work at home al
ways go to sleep in school and have
sores and cuts on their hands, one
witness testified.
Wages are deplorable. Dresses
which sell for $49.50 are finished for
81. Disease is prevalent" said an
other witness, who seemed more
concerned with the possibility that
people who bought the dresses might
get sick than with the conditions
of the workers.
Some of the prices paid are, for
making roses, 20 cents a dozen;
clocking silk hosiery, $3.50 a dozen;
cutting lace, % cents a hundred
yards. BY hard work it is pos
sible for child to cut so yards of
lace an hour.

in groups of a dozen and more, were
rapidly converging on the Bowman
bottling plant
The bare-faced fraud, practiced
apparently with the connivance of
the Chicago Health Department, ex-
tremely unfair to the milk producers
all thru the trouble, has given the
farmers new determination. The
strike is on again with renewed Bit
terness.
A conference was called yesterday
by Health Commissioner Bundesen
at which Frank Holt, president of the
Milk Producers Association was
present. "The premium must be re-
stored" said Holt on his way to the
conference. "The strike is on and
will stay on until the premium is re-
stored"
Threatened renewal of Chicago's
milk strike was averted here early
today.
After a hasty conference Chicago
distributors agreed to pay striking
producers a bonus of 8 cents per
hundred weight in addition to the
price of $2.671z agreed upon yester-
day.
Acting as arbiter for the second
time, Health Commissioner Bundcsen
brought the opposing factions to-
gether and presented the new de-
mands of the producers.
The distributors relinquished after
bitter debate. The producers holding
they had been "tricked" into COM
promising on a discriminate price.
Chicago's milk supply, Spokesman
for both factions said, will be re-
stored to normal today. Producers
in Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois
will resume shipments to Chicago
without delay, they said.

Mellon said that all Couzens' capt.

IF, however, Mellon argued, the
surfaces had not been SO high when
Couzens retired and invested his capt.

it in safely diversified investments
have placed some Of it in taxable

Mellon said that there is particular
public need for lowered surtaxes IN

With the present high surtaxes he
said investors were practically shut

M ARC H OF 5000
FAR M Err PICKETS
Baked BY FRAUD
Hearst Papers Aid in
Double Cross

Three thousand enraged dairy
farmers, members of the Milk Pro-
ducers Association from the Eein.
Ill, district and southern Wisconsin
points, were induced to abandon
their march upon the plant of the
Bowman Dairy Company at Waucon-
da, H., by news Of a fake settle
ment.
The alleged settlement, news of
which was flashed by the Hearst
papers, and which resulted in the
5000 picIkets returning to their
homes was actually proposal by
which tho milk producers were to
receive one-half cent less than they
are receiving at the present time.
The joker in the agreement of the
Bowman Dairy Company, ito meet
the farmers halfway" is in the
fact that simultaneously with the
pledge to raise the price of hum
dred pounds of milk from $3.50 to
$2-67 Y, the Bowman Dairy Com
pany cancelled a premium of 8
cents per pound on milk produced
within fifty miles of Chicago.
Over one-third of the striking
milk producers are affected by this
provision of which they had no
knowledge when Health Commission
er Bundesen announced the settle
ment" and the Hearst press strained
every effort to get the news to the
marching pickets Armed with copies
of the Hearst papers containing the
story of the fake settlement, the
deputies Of Sheriff Ahlstrom of Lake
county intercepted the farmers, who.
