being made in combination Mohair and Silk, or
Mohair and Rayon These should be advertised a.
"silk and Mohair,0 or "Mohair and Rayon."
The number of garments in which real silk Is
included is comparatively very small and dealers CO.
operating with the Better Business Bureau are
careful to investigate before advertising "Mohair
and Silk" or "Silk Mixed Mohair" suits
Washington merchants have eliminated the term

tricts, asking them to consider the

The districts also will be asked
to consider the counter proposal

CONGRESS TO PICK HOME
FOR LINCOLN COLLECTION

The future home Of the Oidroyd
collection of Lincoln relics, now
housed in the house on Tenth Street,
where the. martyred President died,
will be settled by Congress.
The present house cannot be
maintained as museum unless a
small admission fee is charged, be-
cause it is too small to acccmmo-
date the crowds that would come
if it were entirely open to the
public.
If Congress rules against the
charging of an admission fee to see
the collection, recently bought by
the Federal Government at cost
of $50 900, it probably will be placed
in the National Museum.

President William Green, at
the opening session OF the
forty-sixth annual convention
Of the American Federation of
Labor, branded the company
union plan as a "subtle influ-
ence," seeking to break down
the strength and influence of
the organizations, formed and
fostered by the workers them
selves.
Green also formally declared for
the shorter work-day and week,
declaring, at is our purpose to
continue our policy to secure a
shorter work-day and work-week
wherever industrial conditions will
permit. We are glad to welcome
action to this end by any en-
ployer, large or small, and ask
him to accept the principles of the
American Federation of Labor on
this question.
Industry Awaits Charge
Green expressed the opinion that
several industries now are in the
mood to go on the five-day basis.
He named coal mining, building
trades, garment making and auto
mobile industries as in this class.
He also cited the printing trades
and department stores as other
| fields susceptible to the change.
Tomorrow or Wednesday repre-

will be received. These will include

these men all risk expulsion, which

Such opposition meetings are illegal.
Therefore Trotzky has definitely
