TRICKS!
Running a knife-point, or a nail-file,
up the inside of a silk stocking does
not mean much for it is a trick.
Making hosiery that will stand up
under the friction of feet and shoes
in a continuous state of activity
that is no trick, but the result of a
serious study, a meticulous care and
a genuine sincerity.
One of the important reasons for
the success of Humming 'Bird Silk
Hosiery has been its ability to last .
long under the most strenuous conditions.

Fight by Irreconcilables.
Washington, March 24. The four

controversy over the accomplish
ments of the Washington arms con
ference, was ratified by the senate
today with no reservation except the
"no alliance" proposal proposed by
the senate foreign relations commit
tee and accepted by President Hard
ing. The vote of 67 to. 27, represent
ing a margin of four over the neces
sary two-thirds, was recorded after
the opponents of ratification had
made more than twenty unsuccessful
attempts to qualify senate action by
reservations or amendments distaste
ful to the administration. On the
deciding roll call fourteen democrats
voted for the treaty and only four
republicans opposed.
Dying hard, the irreconcilable ele
ment which had opposed the treaty
on the ground that it establishes al

Although debate was prohibited

councilman in the fourth ward, is to
make the race for that office by pe
tition. Mr. Brittain's friends have se
cured a large petition asking that
his name foe placed on the ballot and
will accordingly make the race. Dur
ing his term in the office Mr. Brit
tain has Ferved as chairman of the
cemetery committee and his work in
that line has been given a great deal
of praise from the citizens of the city

the reasons that his friends have
been so urgent of his being a-candidate.
Mr. Johnson, the nominee of
the Citizens' ticket, is well known
and very popular and the race over

be the one interesting spot in the
campaign it would appear, and what
ever way it goes the city at large

being urged by his friends to enter
the race against Councilman John
W. Mauer, who was renominated at
the convention, and as both of these
gentlemen have served in the coun
cil the people of their ward will be

NO SERIOUS COAL SHORTAGE.
Providence. R. I., March 24. It is
unlikely that there will be any ser
ious shortage of coal resulting from
the threatening coal strike. J. D.
Marrow, vice president of the nation
al coal association, declared here to
night in a speech before an employ
ers' association banquet.
Non-union production, the possi
bility of production resuming within
sixty days after the strike in at least
a part of the union fields and existing
accumulation of stocks, he considered
would assure an adequate supply.
Explaining that he could not speak
for the national coal association, Mr.
Morrow, nevertheless said the condi
tion of the industry "required a great
and necessary readjustment" to wh
and necessary adjustment" to
which the strike was an inescapable
"accompanying convulsion." He said
it would only be "hindered by the
intervention of the government."

A FORTY-HOUR WEEK
IN FORD FACTORIES
Decision Reached to Have no Satur
day or Sunday Work Hereafter
3,000 New lien Hired.
Detroit, Mich.. March 24. Adop
tion of the forty-hour week as a
permanent policy in all plants of the
Ford Motor company was announced
tonight by Edsel B. Ford, president
of the company. Under the new plan
the factories will be closed on Satur
day and Sunday and about 3,000 men
will be added to the force. The change
will affect approximately 50,000 em
ployes, who will receive the minimum
$6 a day wage, but will work five
eight-hour days weekly.
New employes, however, will re
ceive a minimum of $5 daily, the pre
war scale.
In making the announcement, Mr.
Ford said he had reached the conclu
sion the forty-hour week was practi
cal and that the additional day of
rest would prove a great benefit to
the workers and that the production
schedules of the Ford industries could
be so arranged as to maintain the
present output on the curtailed work
ing week. The action was in line
with the company's desire to afford
its workers with every opportunity
to develop their home life and profit
by stead v work with ample leisure,
as well as to provide work for more
of the citv's unemDloved. Mr. Ford
said.
"Every man." Mr. Ford's announ
cement said, "needs more than one
lay a week for ret and recreation.
The Ford company always has sought
to promote ideal home life for its em -
ployes. -We believe that in order to
live properly every man should have
more time to rpend with his family;
more time for self-improvement;
more time for building up the place
called home."

LOOMS IN SENATE
Senator Smoot Announces He Will
Oppose Measure as Passed By
House Wants Sales Tax.
Washington. March 24. The sol
diers bonus bill will be pressed in
the senate as soon as the senate fi
nance committee reports -the tariff
bill, according to plans announced
by Senator McCumber of North Da
kota, chairman of the committee.

difference of opinion among mem
bers of the finance committee on the
bonus was indicated v-hen Senator
Smoot of Utah, one of the republican
members of the committee, declared
that he will not approve the bill as
passed by the house. He said that

sion be added, preferably a sales tax.
The bill, as passed by - the house
yesterday, was formally referred to
the finance committee by the senate.
The committee expects to finish
work on the tariff bill, by the end of
next wek and will take up the bo
nus measure immediately.
"We cannot do anything until we
get through with the tariff," said
Senator McCumber. "As soon as the
1 tariff is reported to the senate, the
committee will give consideration to
soiuiers- compensation legislation.
Members of the, .finance . committee
will want -to confer 'with the presi
dent on the bill;"
Hanford McNider. national com-
1 mander of the American Legion, is-
; suea a statement expressing approv-
al of the house bill.
"The overwhelming majority giv
en the adjusted compensation bill in
the house yesterday shows that the
representatives, close to the hearts of
the people, Tealize the Justice of the
measure, and in spite of highly or
ganized propaganda in opposition,
know the great mass of Americans
want this debt to the veterans paid,
and want it paid now," said Mr. Mac
