vacuum cleaners are owned by the
government and notice has been given
that the subject is to be brought up
in the House of Commons in the in
terests of the charwomen who take
care Of the Whitehall Government Of

that the charwomen are overWorkep
and underpaid and an effort is to be
made to have the government set up
a committee of inquiry to look into
the matter thoroughly.
Spokesmen for the charwomen ac-
cuse the government office Of works
of going too far in order to economlZe.
They assert that the charwomen are
now held RESPONSIBLE for cleaning $500
superficial feet per head, instead OF
1000 superficial feet as formerly.
The charwomen also are required to
clean walls, which they contend Is
not part of their job, as this neces-
states more or less ladder climbing

PARIS, November 27.-''The horn

but this year it has been nearly
drowned out by the horn Of the tour

the ceremonial. however, was gone
through as usual-the blessing OF tne

Certainly, we are going to have all

to begin with-for the Chronicle has
said it.
