This plan was discouraged, however, on the ground that women already in the empioy of the city might be red because they would be receiv- | es. Among prominent women pres- ent at the first session of the scnooi for Tammany workers were Mrs. R. - Lau, co-leader of the Ninth As- sembly District with Ralph Williams; Miss Elizabeth M. Barry, representing the old Twelfth District where Ch ¥. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, ; casts his vote; Mrs. Alfred EB Smith, wife of the Aldermanic President, and Mrs. M. A. Do Julto, captain in the Twenty-third Assembly District. Dur. ing a period of two months Mrs, Lau and her workers have enrolled 1,100 women, As a result, the Republicans now lead by but 400 in the enrolment. This is but an instance of what the women are doing for Tanmany Mall, in strictly Republican districta, Jn) many districts the women have open-! ed clubs in the same buildings in! which the men’s clubs are established. | —eanellieeieis SAY WILSON CAN FIX RATES. | Street Car Companten and Men In-| aint He Has Power. | WASHINGTON, June 26.—Street rail- | road company representatives and rt resentatives of the employees joined to- | day in presenting to joint Chairmen, Board a report declaring that war emergency powers conferred on Presi- dent Wilson by Congress would allow him to fix directly increased rates for transportation in local communities where necessary on account of wage advances. “The whole Board probably should be | convened to decide this point,” Mr. Taft | tab atter listening to the presen- | ten it 1s our opinion that our duty | Would be to invite the attention of the President to this construi case | we find it necessary to in ¢ cot A= Fike \ CONGRESS RECESS SOON.
