intttee In Omaha, He took himself into
executive session, made a speech to hlin.
self about the harmful publlelty that the
committee's Investigations had receive!
and admonished himself "never to give
the newspapers another darn thine" while
the committee la In session.
Mr. Losey Is afraid that giving pub
licity to some of the testimony of the
clrls who can eat only onco In two days
and must stay In bed after washing their
clothes until they aro dry enough to Iut
on. will have the effect of keeping girls
away from the committee and preventing
them from giving testimony that will be
valuable In deciding what report Is to be
made with reference to he minimum
wage bills now pending in the legislature.
A number of girls appeared, however,
and gave their testlmpny. A number of
business men and large employers of fe
male help also appeared during the morn
ing, but what waa the result of the con
ferences the committee Is keeping to
itself.
Mr. Lossy has promised the packing
concerns of South Omaha that the rec
ords of girls employed and the wages
received by every one will bo returned 'o
the respective packers after tbo commit
ter gets through with them. He promised
their representative that the record of
wages paid by the packing houses would
in no way be made public, that it wouitf
simply be used by the committee and man
returned.
Thus far clrls on nnoirlng no particu
lar timidity about coming before the com.
- ralttee to testify, as their names have not
been made public and they have nothing
to fear.
