It is fitting and, proper that the women of the United States should have a cen- tralized headquarters for conventions of national women's organizations and a general clearing house for the discussion and transaction of busi- ness appertaining to the development of woman's new_ position in national life. We intend to make this city the headquarters for women's or- ganizations throughout the United States, and in keeping with this pro- gram we have inaugurated this proj- ect.” Heads of various organizations of local women were present at the meeting. They discussed the necessity of au- tonomy of each individual organi- zation, the concensus of opinion be- ing that each body would be a dis- tinct entity in the larger organiza- ton;-and that only the mutual in- terests of the entire group would be promoted by the foundation.

J., May 19.—Giuseppe de Filippo, arrested last night on sus- picion that he was connected with the Wall street explosion last September, today was held for twenty-four hours at the request of the Department of Justice for further investigation. Both the police and federal agents maintained reticence, but it was re- ported that in addition to the likeness which the police assert he bears to a composite picture of the driver of the cart_that is believed to have carried a bomb_into Wall street. he had been identified in a line-up at police head- quarters by a man whose name the po- lice refused to divulge. According to a man present at the line-up the man credited with having made the identification was shown ten prisoners. He was said to have gone directly up to de Filippo. De_ Filippo told both the police and agents of the Department of Justice that he was engaged in the trucking business in Bayonne on the day of the explosion. He denied any knowledge of the reputed bomb plot and declared he never had been identified with any radical organization. The suspect has three deep scars on his face and head. According to the police he received these in knife duels. De Filippo, who is married and has two children, has been a_resident of Bayonne for twelve years. He has been semployed at various times as a ship- builder and truckman. He now is in business for himself, operating a small truck. Linene NATURAL GAS SUPPLY BECOMING EXHAUSTED, MINE DIRECTOR WARNS CINCINNATI. May 18.—H ter Bain, director of the Unit States bureau of mines at Wash- ington, speaking at 't nnual banquet of the Natural Gas Asso- ciation of America, here last night. said it pparent that our natural gas is limited and that it is up to the men engaged in the natural gas_industry to preserve this wonderful commodity as long as_possible. Mr. Bain took the place on the program of A. B. Fall, Secretary of the Interior, who was unable to leave the National Capital at this time. The director went into an ex- haustive survey of the natural gas industry from its inception, and drew the attention of the del- egates to the fact that they were engaged in Aa service that is fundamental to the national life of the public. “The time for turning from nat- ural gas to the manufactured gas will inevitably come,” said Mr. B . “but it is your responsibil- ity to postpone this as long as possible.” HEARINGS HALTED Witnesses Given More Time to Prepare Data—Re- sume Tomorrow. Joint hearings by the Scnate and House committees on the civil service to consider bills pending in Con- gress to establish a classification of government employes were interrupt- ed today to give important witnesses Imore time in which to prepare data they wish to present. The inquiry will be resumed tomorrow. Dr. George F. Bowerman, librarian of the Public Library, and Roland Da- vis, representing the traffic group of rthe Interstate Commerce Commission. were the only speakers at yesterday | afternoon’s session. Senator Sterling. chairman of the joint called on several persons who committee, ve requested to be heard, but none were prepared to respond. Dr. Bowerman spoke of the rela- tion of librarians to classification. He defined sional workers. librarians as and He said the report of the onal joint reclassification on had put librarians in the c, technical and professional group and he requested that their pay be made comparable with the pay ot this group. Large Turnover Detrimental. Without indorsing any bill, Dr. Bowerman emphasized being profes- the will give relief to government work- ers. He said the turnover in person- subprofessional , library | | I i 1 i ONRECLASSIFYING | reduced. particular need of classification legislation that nel in the Public Library was 90 per cent in 1918 and 98 per cent in 1919, |due principally to the unsatisfactory conditions obtaining under the present system of government employment. Such a turnover, he said, “means dis- organization and a greatly undermined morale in the service.” The Public Library head paid a tribute to_the late Dr. E. B. Rosa of the buredu of standards, who, he said, had worked beyond his strength in reclassification study and really had been a martyr to the cause. Mr. Davis said the employes he represented were confident Congress would give them justice. on Sale $]2.95 Wonderful Dresses That Fairly Radiate With Delicate Aroma of Warm Summer Days Organdies, Voiles, French Ginghams, Cloth, Eponge 25 to °35 WRAPS| CANTON As well as Sport Coats, and if there is a woman or miss in this city who can use, one of these garments, she owes it to her- self to be at this sale.
