Hull Not Ready with His Speech - French Pre-
 mier Takes His Place

LONDON, June 13-Dele. gates to the World Economic Conference reassmbled t his forenoon for the second ses- sion amid an air of tense drama and expectancy pro- duced by the war debts sit- uatiOn which was sprung yesterday by British Premier Ramsay Macdonald who de- clared in his address that something must be done with out delay and also calling for a settlement of "this vexed question, once and for all time in the light of the pres. ent world conditions"
 Earlier in the day the Brit ish Cabinet failed to remove the threat that Great Britain will default in the war debt payment due to the United States on Thursday.
 The French will also likely default, as that nation did last December and observers predicted t h a t a European bloc of debtor nations will force a settlement of the problem.
 Sensation a f t e r sensation occurred at the morning ses- sion, with American Secre- tary of State Cordell Hull, spokesman, of the American delegation not appearing, and Premier Daladier, of France, taking his place.
 Word from the American delega- tion said Secretary Hull was de- layed in preparing his speech in which he was to bear into the battle-ground, the banner of tariff moderation for which he has fought throughout his long career in Ann erican life. He is prepared, it is said, to strike against excessive tariffs and new fangled trade bar riers which he feels are choking the world commerce to death.
 Currency Stabiizati0n
 Meanwhile discussions for cur rency stabilization plans are under way between French, American and British bank representatives with European powers described as ex- erting tremendous pressure on Am- ericans to stabilize the American dollar.
 Daladier,s speech was short and direct with a call for international collaboration. He denounced what he called the blind rush for profits and asserted it is necessary to ex- pend into an international sphere in accords between industries such as steel, chemicals and the like which are now forming behind the national walls and nations must avoid an economic war which will be bound to finish in the same fashion as an actual war and with peril to civilization.
 The French Premier also called for currency stabilization, econ- cmic accords and huge public works and other schemes to pull the world out of its slump.

That when he speaks to Mr.. Lish, the
boss claims that his girls don't want
the union, that Mr.. Specter wants to
make trouble and that it is against
their will. He says that when
worker pays 40 cents a week in dues
it doesn't mean that we should i'm
mediately expect twice as much in
return.
The reasons Mr.. Specter claims
that the boss don't want him to visit
the shop, according TO the agree
ment is because the girls will speak
union" the rest of the day and won't
work. You can understand that
when experienced millinery workers
don't average more than 50 or SO
a day, working from to 10 hours
a day III union shop, with insults
from the forelady, the workers won't
keep quiet when the union officials
visit the shop. The workers know
that 40 cents a week is collected re-
CARELESS if they are working or not
and what they are making when
they do work. The workers we're
promised 81 an hour for the piece
work trimmers according to the
agreement. Mr.. Siegels says that we
should at least get 75c an hour.
When three workers were NOM
mated for chairlady, Mr.. Specter was
afraid that a new chairlady might
not know the tricks as well as the old
chairlady. He quickly asked how
many were in favor of keeping the
old one and stated that it takes Mr.
Lish year before he gets used to a
new chairlady. out of at least 100
workers of the shop only 81 workers
raised their hands but Mr., Specter
thought it useless to take up the
other nominees and so reelected the
old chairlady to please the boss.

NEW YORK-After calling the

while Mr.. Specter speaks, the work
ers were forced into silence during
the entire meeting but were promised
the floor for questions and discussion
after he gets through. BY that time
it was too late and the meeting ad-
journed. The workers went back
withthe same grievances and faced
the same miserable conditions in the
shops as before.
Mr.. Specter puts the entire blame
for not having the conditions in the
agreement on the workers, claiming
that they are poor trade unionists.'
