that, following the wrecking Of the
wharf the old Washington home was
practically inaccessible to the general
public. During June last. with the
opening of the new road, 100 persons
visited the shrine in automobiles. and
the monthly average has since largely
increased. In all, there are about Il
acres in the reservation and in rights
of way to the Virginia State highway
and to the Potomac River. Gen. Tay-
lor says that while the grounds are In
fair shape. the road leading thereR Is

CATHOLIC DAUGHTERS
LOSE BY DECISION
Appeal Court Suggests Per Capita
Ratio Distribution of Realty
Sale Funds.

The catholic Daughters of America,
an organiza don formed by a faction
from the District of Columbia Court,
No PIP, Daughters of Isabella. are not
entitled to the entire fund of Sll 500
resulting from Il sale of zeal estate
belonging to the parent organization.
according to n decision OF the District
Court of Appeals rendered by Justice
Van OrSdel. Some of the members of
the parent organization stuck to the
old name after the split.
In reversing the decision of the
District Supreme Court, which had
held in favor of the new organization,
Justice Van Orsdel suggested that II
receiver be appointed to distribute
the funds and other property between
the two organizations on a per capita
membership ratio as it existed at the
time of the dissolution of the parent
concern.
The appellate court refers to the dis
pute between the Connecticut orEani
zatiOn of the Daughters Of Isabella
and the New York corporation of the
same name and to the injunction by
the District Court in New York
against the New York concern. The
latter corporation then started the
Catholic Daughters of America, with
instructions to the various branches
to make the change in name.

GARMENT WORKERS TO

NEW YORK CITY, Jan. s.-The
garment workers saw 1924 passing
prosperous 1925 to reward them for
prosperous 1925 to reward them for
holding staunchly to their unions in
the hard times that have been ex-
perienced as the result of short sea-
sons of work in the garment industry.
These unions had to fight on two
fronts-against the boil weavils, the
borers from within, and the EMPLOY
ers. 1t was a fighting year in all
manufacturing centers for the Inter-
national Ladies' Garment Workers
Union. The girl waist and dress max
ers of Chicago gave the finest ex-
ample of the unquenchable spirit of
these workers. 1t was a heroic fight
in which the girl strikers gave no
quarter nor expected any. They en-
dured want, cold and privation that
compelled the admiration of the pub.
lie. This fight, abandoned owing to
the poor economic condition of the
trade, is soon to be renewed. The
strike cost the union $3.50, 900.
During the year 100000 was
spent for strike purposes. MANY
thousands were spent for educational
and organization work. The ground
work has been laid for a complete
reformation of this industry employ
ing more than 100000 workers, with
the object of lessening it's seasonal
character. The work has begun in
the important cloak industry, which is
centralized in New York City.
Unemployment insurance, a sani-
tary union label in all garments and
regulation of outside shops are among
the marked achievements. The union
has successfully launched the Inter.
national Bank, its resources now be-
ing in excess of $5,O0O,OOO The re.
markable thing about this institution
is that its managers are not trained
bankers except in a few cases, but
plain workers and labor officers. This
union, composed of immigrants, has
just celebrated its silver anniversary,
full Of energy to continue on its road
to fulfllment of its mission.

them as workers in the common cause.
Continuing, he said:
Il know that on this occasion we

bowed heads because the loss of our
great leader, Mr.. GOmpers, is keenly
felt. We are still in mourning over
the departure of great man, one who
left his impress upon the history of

ment when say that no greater man
has been given to America during the
last half a century than our late la
mented leader, Samuel Gompers-a
humanitarian; q man who promoted
by word and deed the brotherhood of
man; a man whose passion was for
the elevation Of the masses of the
people of our country; who served
faithfully in the common cause, who
was consumed with the desire to make
life better and brighter for the work.
ing men and women not only of Amer
lea, but throughout the world. So
we mourn for him; we cherish fondly
within our memory the thoughts Of
pleasant associations, of eomradeship,
of work and Of service. You who
worked with him so closely and so
faithfully in the days gone by, l
know feel sad on this occasion over
his loss and his departure.
"But we are inspired by many
things in connection with his life. He
died as he wished to die, a tragic and
dramatic death, engaged in the serv-
ice of the common people-died while
at work. What a glorious ending to
glorious lifel And we have his
philosophy, his creed, his spoken
words, all Of that to guide us in our
work in carrying forward the splen-
did organization that he helped to
form, the foundation of which he laid.
win Keep the Faith
at occurs to me that if there is
any one thing above all others that
President Gompers would ask from
each of US, it is that we shall show
that same devotion to the principles
that he enunciated, to the work that
he SO splendidly started and carried
forward, to the great American labor
movement, that you and he manifest
