HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
FRENCH WOMEN EIRN
ONE CENT PER HOUR
Some Are Able to Make From
Two to Five Times That
Amount
By Associated rrtss
Paris, April 24. 5.00 P. M.—Some
extraordinary statements reftardinjr
sweatshop wanes in this country were
brought out in the senate yesterday
during the debate on a bill to fix a
minimum living wage throughout
France by boards created by the gov
ernment, Jean Morel said that be
tween nine hundred thousand.and one
million women in France are now en
during insupportable servitude and re
ceiving wuges barely sufficient to main
tain life. .
M. Morel. Henry Cheron and Ed
ouard Heriet stated that 75 per cent,
of the workers at home on household
linen goods make from 2 1-10 to 4
cents per hour by intense industry. In
some provincial centers pay for such
work is 1 cent per hour.
In Paris 14 per cent, of the women
working upon undergarments make a
maximum of S4O yearly. Makers ot
artificial flowers employing much
taste and manual dexterity are able
to make in the best season from 80
cents to a dollar per day, but more
than 50 per cent, never are able to
get beyond 30 or 40 cents. In the
provinces women working on under
wear and ready-made clothing are able
to make only 10 to 12 cents a day in
most cases and rarely as much as 20
cents.
One case was that of a woman who
had a child to support. The mother
began to sew at the machine at 3
o'clock in the morning and worked all
day and part of the night. She was
able to earn 25 cents a day, but could
afford nothing more to eat than soups.
The bill passed its first reading in
the senate. It had already passed the
chamber in November, 1911.
Asphyxiating Bombs
Effective Behind Lines
Paris, April 24.—Official communi
cations issued to-day say:
"To the north of Ypres the Ger
mans, by employing large quantities of
asphyxiating bombs, the effect of
which was felt for a distance of two
kilometers (1 1-5 miles) behind our
lines, forced us to retire in the direc
tion of the Yser canal.
."The surprise caused by asphyxiat
ing bombs, however, had no grave
consequences. Our counter-attacks
vigorously supported by British troops
on our right and also by Belgian troops
on our left were developed with suc
cess. The Anglo-French troops gained
toward the north between Steenstraete l
and the Ypres-Poelcapelle road. Our
allies took prisonr.s belonging to three
different regiments."
I LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR I
POLITICS v». PATRIOTISM
To the Editor of the Telegraph:
In your issue of this date,
appeared three distinct articles,
including your ed.corial on the defeat
of the local option bill. On the first
page the Governor is represented as
listening to promises of a local option
plank in the Republican platform for
1916. After what was seen and heard
last Tue.sclav, is there any one who be
lieves that such a plank would mean
any more in the Republican platform
than it did this year in the Democratic
platform? Regardless of what may be
found in the platforms, is it not evi
dent that the machines of both these
parties are very wet?
In the articlo on the seventh page it
is intimated that the administration
will try to smother the Glenn Constitu
tional Amendment Hill in committee.
Are you willing to charge our Governor
with brtng so unpatriotic? He, person
allv told me that he was for local option
because it was "* great moral question"
and because be believed "it is a step
towards prohibition." I have had his
honesty questioned more than once in
the matter of his stand for local op
tion. and have constantly defended him
as "honest" in his purposes. I cannot
believe that he would lend himself to
the smothering of a hill, that if passed
would begin to pave the way to let the
whole people vote 011 the of the
existence of the saloon and the liquor
traffic. It will not do to make a stage
play and say that because there were
more votes for such a measure two
years ago than for local option, those
who so voted did-not mean it. I hap
pen to know, not guess, that not only
are there many people through the
State that do not favor local option
and who do favor State and national
prohibition, but I also know that not
every man who voted "No" last Tues
day is a liquor man. Such a speech
as Ivitts, of Erie, made last Tuesday
is inexcusable and could be made only
by a man who represents such a dis
trict as sent him here. And while
there were but few valid arguments
offered against local option there were
some, while figures and petitions were
Juggled by both sides. This question
has been handled in the past so as to
keep the prohibition forces from uniting
against the liquor abomination and to
keep corrupt politics on top, but I am
loathe to believe that our Governor
will lend himself to any such scheme
as is outlined by the article in your
columns of to-day (the 23rd) on the "th
pag.-, entitled, 'PROHIBITION IS To
BE HliLlJ BACK." It would not be
Patriotic but Partyotic.
Patriotically yours.

i Storm Tears Open Grave
and Bones Dangle in Air
Special to The Telegraph
Waynesboro, Pa., April 24.—A very
peculiar result of the storm of Sun
day, April 11," was that a poplar tree
was torn up by the roots, tearing the
top off of an old vault on the farm
of Heber Ritter, near Trappe station,
in Talbot county, Md. The existence
of the vault was unknown to the oc
cupant of the farm, as there were no
tombstones to mark the place. It
must have been very old, as the roots
of the tree had grown down through
the top of the vault into the grave.
When the tree fell. It tore the top of
the grave open, and leg bones, about
which the roots had grown, dangled
in the air. A human skeleton, the
shroud and a part of a shoe could be
plainly seen in the broken coffin.
