Nash Clothing Company of this ecity, who January 1 made an innova- tion in American industry by placing his 2,000 employes on a basis of forty hours a week—eight hours a day and five working days in a week—announced today that he was planning a still further re- duction in the working time of the women employed by his company to a basls of seven hours a day and five days a week. “After much study of the ques- tion of women in industry, I have reached the conclusion that for the health of America’s women and for the sake of the America of the future it would be best to employ women {n factories only thirty-five hours a week,” sald Mr. Nash. . do mnot think elght hours for five days a week to be too much for the men, e added. —_— Enough Funds to Start Building Soon.

The Washington-Virginia Rallway Company has protested to the Public Ctilities Commission that the loca- tion of ‘motor bus terminals on 12th street between C and D streets north- west conStitutes unfalr competition and makes the operation of the cars on_that street dangerous. This became known today when the commission transmitted a copy of the protest to the bus lines, with the statement that on April 7 the commission will proceed to fix the date for a hearing on the question, SOCIETY. busses run to Virginia towns served by the street car company. This is the second complaint filed with the commission in recent weeks by street car companies against bus companies. The first came from the Washington Raflway and Electric Company against the proposed estab lishment of a bus line on Rhode ls- land avenue by the Washington Rapld Transit Company. The commission has announced that it will hold a pub- lic hearing in that case also. The rapid trunsit company obtained permission last August to run busses from North Capitol street and Rhode Isiand avenue to 12th street morth- west, thence south to Pennsyivania avenue and east to Center market. The bus company now is having the machines built and hopes to start the line in the near future. The street car company contends such a bus route would constitute unfair competition and would _operate through a territory now adequately These | served by street rafllway lines. The full committes named by the| Commissioners has instructed the steering committee to begin by mak- Ing a survey of the general situation in the city with a view to determin- ing just what can be done by an unoficial organization to relleve the r. Peyser said today he had no pre- concelved views of how the survey should be made, but would invite all members of the steering committee to volce their ideas on the question at the meeting.tomorrow night. When the steering committee h decided what the scope of the in- quiry should be, necessary subcom- mittees will be named to delve into the varfous phases of the question. Being without power to subpoena witnesses or inquire Into the bool of men connected with home building enterprises, the aim of the committee will be to stimulale %ome construc- tion=in future rather than to delve into shortcomings of the past. The committee, however, will com- pare building costs here with other cities and if it is found that prices are higher in Washington, the com- mlllnee will endeavor to determgine why. e . n able prizes and cash have been re- ceived, and many of the older women have taken tables and given them to lending quite a debutantes, thus George E.
