The vote on the former item was 50 to 27, and party and wet and dry were disregarded. Many prominent wets voted for the amend ment and as many leading drys were against it. Mr. Mellon had warned the senators aguninst appropriating such a hugh sum in advance of a definite plan for its expenditure. Bishop Thomas Nicholson, president of the Anti-Saloon league; Bishop James Cannon, Jr., of the Methodist church, South, and E. lL. Crawford, secretary of that organization's board of temperance and social service, had sent Mr, telegram demand ing that he support the Harris amendment or admit be was unwilling or unable to enforce prohibition. This drew from Senator Bruce of Maryland a fierce denunciation men in the debate before the roll call, As finally passed by the senate, the deficiency appropriation measure also carried an amendment requiring pub- lic hearings ou all tax refunds in ex- cess of $10,000. The bill carried $73. 000000 for tax refunds to be added to the £130,000.000 heretofore appropriat- ed for that purpose. There were strong indications that the on this bill would re- ject the $24,000,000 prohibition item but would accept the appropriation for the inquiry desired by Mr. Hoover. by 1¢ ines Melion a of those three conferees ADICALS and pacifists in the sen- ate were successful in checking progress on the 15-cruiser bill al though they would not admit that they were flibustering against it, Representative Fred Britten, chairman of the naval affairs committee of the house, devised a plan: that rather dis mayed the opponents of the measure. Mr, Britten took steps to add the cruiser authorization bill and an inl- tial appropriation for the ships to the annual naval appropriation bill short. ly to come before the house. This procedure would have the effect of discharging the senate from further consideration of the eruiser authoriza- tion measure, With the provision for the cruisers incorporated in the ap propriation bill, the pacifists could de- feat the cruisers only by defeating the entire bill for upkeep of the navy in the next fiscal year. Mr. Britten laid his plan before President Coolidge and afterward he said the President Indicated a desire to have the cruisers authorized and built but advocated elimination of the provision of the bill requiring the lay- ing down of five cruisers each year. He wants no appropriations made by this congress that would endanger the surplus In the treasury. Mr. Coolidge, Benator Curtis and Senator Hale all believed the senate would soon pass the cruiser bill N MONDAY the senate confirmed the appointment of Noy O.

Urgent Need for Eight-Hour Law for Women Engaged in Industrial Pursuits By WILLIAM IL. BODINE, Chicago School Official. Thousands of wives in Illinois are forced to work in order to sup port and educate children left behind by fathers who desert and leave their families at the mercy of the world. Wife desertion is one of the greatest causes of juvenile delinquency. If the hours of working mothers could be shortened, they would have more time to attend to home duties. and keep better vigilance over their children outside of school hours. Tf eight hours is long enough for a man to work it is long enough for a woman to work. The overworked and underpaid woman means the underfed child. The underfed pupil often becomes the pathetic victim of mental retarda- tion. The backward boy at books means the forward boy in truancy. It eeems a travesty on justice to see able-bodied men quitting work at the end of eight hours, while frail women must work two hours longer for the bread of life in this state that gave Abraham Lincoln, the great emancipator, to the world, ~~ ’
