day to attend a reconciliation of the
differences between him and City At-

to the proposed franchise and merger
ordinance. A number of conferences
have already been held and some prog-
ress made in the right direction, but a
deadlock was reached when the mat-
ter was last before the City Council,
some weeks ago.
Mr. Rector has taken a decided stand
in favor of reserving certain specific

PARIS, Sept. 25.—New fashions for
women have raised a discussion as to
the proprietary of the imitation of the
"poilu’s" uniform by either men or
women. Women's hats in the form of
the Adrien helmet worn by the French
soldier in the trenches have made their
appearance for the second time, while
some dressmakers have ornamented
gowns with braid in the form, disposi-
tion and colors of the "fourragere" or
aiguillettes that adorn the uniforms of
regiments and battalions cited in or-
ders.

ployes and employers. It declares that
compulsory insurance for American
workers is a "neceasary and probable
development of the near ftuture."

ATLANTIC CITY. N.J., Oct. it—In
a report submitted today to the con-
vention of the American Electrical
Railway Association in sesslon here a
special investigation committee strong-
ly recommended compulsory life, health
and accident insurance for all Amer-
ican wage-earners. The committee,
which consists of E. W. Rice, president
of the General Electric Company; H.
G. Bradlee, a Boston banker, and
James D Mortimer, president of a
New York bank, has undertaken to
cover the same ground as that studied
by the Federal Industrial Commission
and to investigte the economic status
of the wage-earner and his relation
with the employer.
The report submitted today was con-
fined to insurance for w age earners.
One of the conclusions reached by the
committee was that commercial social
insurance system of Germany is the
only one that provides reasonably ade-
quate protection for all workers.
"Voluntary insurance systems have
failed to carry life insurance protec-
tion generally into the lower wage
levls where it is most needed," said
the report. "In the absence of com-
pulsory regulations the American
workman will go without life insurance
protection."
State insurance, the committe de-
clared, has not been a "conspicuous
success," and labor unions, as now or-
ganized, do not and cannot be expected
to provide the insurance needed by
Wage-eurners and their, families.
Regarding the public pension system,
the report says that "the failure to
make adequate provisions for the ac-
cruing liabilities under these pension
plans had the universal shortcoming
of such administration."

WASHINGTON, Oct 11.—The gulf
coast appears to be safe from a trop-
ical storm for the present at least.
Weather .bureau reports today indi-
cated that the disturbance, which was
near Porto Rico Tuesday, apparently
had pansed to the northward. Iow
pressure still prevails over the Car-
ibbean with unsettled weather.

Many colds that hang on all winter

ribbon—red and green—are also very
largely used and cloaks in khaki with
a profusion of pockets recalling the
jacket of Tommy Atkins are being pre-
pared to be launched for spring.
This effort to give a more military
tone to women’s wear is attributed to
the dressmaker and milliner more than
to the wearer and is severely con-
j demned by part of the French press as
a commercial dodge that doe nut
harmonize with the general feeling.

The question how much cut wood
makes a cord—one that has occasion-
ed confusion in the retail wood busi-
ness locally—haa now been answered
to the satisfaction of C H. Cross, city
sealer of weights and measures, and
he will endeavor this fall and winter
to enforce a uniform standard.
Mr. Cross took the matter up with
the bureau of standards, at Wash-
ington. D. C.. and the reply is that a
cord is 128 pubic feet of wood, no mat-
ter what the size or length. Austin
dealers as a rule have held to the rule
that 128 cubic feet of four-foot wood
cut into stove wood makes a cord of
cut wood. It dors not make 128 cubic
feet of cut wood, for there is a con-
siderable shrinkage. The amount of
shrinkage varies greatly with the wood,
so that buyers of ut wood are fal
from getting uniform treatment.
The government authority recognizes
that shrinkage takes place, and says
that the dealer's protection is in plac-
ing his price sufficiently high to cover
the loss.
This might be regarded, Mr. Cross
remarked, as a parallel case With that
of the grocer who would send his cus-
tomer two-thirds of a peck of po-
tatoes for a peck, explaining that the
shortage was represented by rotten
potatoes, paid for by the dealer, which
had been thrown out. The right pro-
cedure is to give the customer a peek
and charge enough to take care of the
wastage.
Mr. Cross asks the public to co-
operate with him in enforcing a correct
standard, and in saving the consumers
a large aggregate sum of money. He
recommends that when wood is de-
livered the buyer cord it, or have it
corded, and report the result to the
sealer.

Much interest was shown in the lec-
ture last night of Carl H. Milam of

vocating the establishment of public

how business men have been helped
by it.
