washington, May 2O.-Whatcvel
the immediate results Of strikes now
in progress in southern textile CEN
tiers may be. the work of organizing
the underpaid mill workers apparently
Is going to continue on a large scale.
Discussion Of the situation in the
south was uppermost among leaders
OF the Wonen's Trade Union league,
who have just wound up their trl-
cnnial convention here and who de-
cided to move their national head
quarters from Chicago to Washington
with the announced purpose OF cs-
tablishing a nearer base for their
campaign to unionizc southern indus
trial workers.
The apparent interest of the Ameri-
can Federation Of Labor, as voiced by
President William Green, has also as

never expected to hear from the A. F..

alton also intended to keep up the
tight to rescue southern mill work.

atrocious wage and working condi-
tiOns.
Hard On tho Women
Women mill workers. Judging from
stories told here, have been getting
the worst Of it. Stories Of girls who
we're paid Sc to $40 a week and
worked go hours a week appear to
have startled some Of the senators,
who must decide whether there is
warrant for an investigation of tex
tile industry conditions in North and
South Carolina and Tennessee.
Leaders Of tho Women's Trade
Union League revealed that average
yearly earnings Of women in industry
are lower than they we're five years
ago. despite the prosperity enjoyed
by other classes. Mems earnings have
increased.
Latest official reports from three
large manufacturing states, New York,
Illinois and Massachusetts,, show that
women wage carlers receive on an
average about SIS per cent Of the
weekly earnings of men wage earn

I also had severe pains in my abdomen. Pains in my chest and shoulder also bothered me a great deal, and I was in a badly run down condition.
 After taking two bottles of Sar- gon and one bottle of Sargon Soft Mass Pills I noticed a remarkable improvement in my condition. My appetite is splendid I can now di- .gest and assimilate food I hadn't dared touch before i'1 months. I no longer suffer from indigestion but the greatest blessing of all has been the relief from con tipation from which ! suffered for so many years.
