TEXTILE SYSTEM

International Labor Session
Urged to Aid Ending Ex-
Internationally.

A heated attack on the extraterri-

settlements in China immune from
Chinese law stirred Harold Butler,
president of the International Labor
once at Geneva to urge delegates at
the World Textile Conference to ap-
prove renewed efforts on the part OF
the I. L. o. toward eliminating extra
territoriality.
Although the political aspect OF
extra territoriality is no concern of
the conference, Corneille Mertens of
Belgium said the meeting being held
at the Departmental Auditorium here
has right to consider it as social
problem. He urged adoption of
resolution providing that any steps
taken by the conference or the I. L. 0.
toward improving labor standards in
textile mills be made applicable to
factories in Chinese foreign settle
ments.
Mertens, the first European to mem
ton xtra-territoriality said that 10
per cent of the textile workers in
CHINA are women and children. and
foreign-owned factories.
Butler added that past atten1ptz

officers for acceptance of Chinese Ia

the States underground water supply.
First of three railroad witnesses
testifying In opposition to the water
way, Willoughby attacked a report by
Maj Gen Edward M. Markham, chief
Of Army Engineers, that the project
was feasible and should be completed.
He said Markham was in error in
estimating the cost as low as $751;
92l, 900. Willoughby said the canal
would cost 1884,, ASS 900.
Gen. Markham's decision" he said.
