organizations nationwide battle for
the 48 hour working week, died in a
hospital here today OF blood infec-
tons. He was state commissioner
OF labor under Governor Martin
Glynn and subsequently one OF four
industrial commissioners.
Probably the outstanding feat IN
the long career OF James NJ. Lynch,
a career that embraced service to
the state and to organized labor,
was his determined and diplomatic
supervision OF the famous fight OF
the T. r. n. In the early 1905 for the
48-hour week.
Although this strike developed
into a bitter feud. not one case OF
any attempted violence was reported.
The battle won. Lynch was re-elect-
ed by reclamation to the presidency
Of the 7. T. ". the first thus to be
honored. That was in 1906.

Bridal costumes displayed were
similar to those Of the nineties. The

for evening gowns. Other leading

what they had to say follow:
r. B. Creager-"While / have not

Realizing this and knowing that

sioners. and feeling that they have
gone thoroughly into the details, I
am in favor Of it.
None of us likes to increase our

sary TO health. II is Just one Of a

Grover Wagner understand
the present filtration plant is en-
tirely too small to meet present re-
quirements and l think the city
would be nothing less than foolish
not TO vote the proposed bonds 70

Il do not think that a very large
