Friends of Benjamin Schlesinger, for @ight years President of the Interna- tion Ladies Garment Workers Union, ‘With 150,000 members, the largest or- @anization in the American Federation f Labor, are working by telephone and telegraph to-day to defeat his an- Mounced purposed to retire from the presidency. The convention of the union opened to-day at Cleveland. Mr. Schlesinger, before starting for Cleveland yester- day, announced he was not a candi- @ate for re-election. He protected his Fefusal by declining to be elected as @elezate to the convention. The by- Jaws of the union require that the President must be elected from among the delegates. The adherents of Mr. @chlesinger here are bending their @fforts to have the by-laws suspended #0 that an election can be forced on Mr. Schlesinger against his will. ‘Mr. Schlesinger asserted he is “sick and tired of a thankless job.” Be- fore leaving yesterday he said: “If any one had told me during our Jong strike of ten weeks this year, which ended in a complete victory for the union and which left the manu- facturers flattened out as never be- fore, that there would be criticism such as the administration has re- ceived since our victory, I would not have believed it. “However, there is an element that mothing can satisfy, which takes no ceptional in view of the general ec- onomic situation. Let them see what they can do, 1 will leave it to them.” The difficulties to which he referred have been brought about by an ele- ment in the International, which fs in sympathy with the aims of the Amal- gemated Garment Workers Union, which was organized by Sidney Hill- man, Schlossberg and Shiplacoff, and has gradually gathered into jtself much of the element which separated from theA. F. of L. in 1915. ‘whe Amalgamated does not tolerate the open shop. Schlesinger has al- ways been willing to have members of his union work in any shop where the union scale was paid, irrespective ef the affiliations of the other work- ers. “If I can't keep a shop 100 per.cent. unionized,’ he said. ‘I am glad to have it 85 per cent. unionized or 50 per cent. and keep up the fight to strengthen the union."" Since the strike settlement, many former members of the Amalgamated have been joining the International and the newcomers have made the meetings more and more stormy. Samuel Gompers, who is attending the convention was quoted in dis- patches to-day as saying he thought ft was Mr. Schlesinger's duty to stick to his post and fight communism. It 4s understood that Mr. Schlesinger is considering an offer of $25,000 a year to become an editor of ‘‘Forward." ics! sede $500 AND PLUMES BOTH MISSING Munzi Was to Get $10,000 Para- dise Feathers; Did He? Not Yet. Aurelio Nunzi of No, 58 Roosevelt Street showed a roll of bills con- faining over $500 in paying for a @rink in a West Street saloon last might. A man in sailor clothes at once made friends with him. In half sn hour they were on their way to- gether to Hoboken, where the sallor told Nunzi he could buy $10,000 worth of bird of paradise plumes for 9500, ‘The sailor took him to No, 1816 ‘Washington Street, where a giant Bwede was waiting in the hall. Nunz counted out $500 to the man, who went upstairs to get the feathers. After waiting for him half an hour, the sailor went “to look for the Swede.” Nunzi waited three hours ‘and then went to the police station, ‘where he did not even get sympathy. ‘Trade in bird of paradise feathers is prohibited by law.

Heretofore, we had to store your furs in New York, and many a time we marveled at your patience in waiting several days when you wanted to get them out. Now, it will be a matter of minutes instead of days—at home instead of out-of-town—on the roof instead. of over the river—in Brooklyn instead of over the Brook. Obviously, being the latest vault to be built, its construction will embody the most improved devices for safety, and the most modern methods of re- frigeration for preserving and pro- ‘ moting the life and beauty of your furs.
