ELEVEN YEAR OLD MISS ROMANCES VIVIDLY

"Labor union r a largo part of a movement for making a truo damocracy in America," R. J. Leonard aaid when he spoke at the meeting of the labor forward movement last night "Unions have shortened the hours and Increased the pay of laboring men, but this is nottheir most important accomplishment Members of union receive education at the meetings, receive the fellowship of men Interested In the same things, exchange Ideas, and the meetings constitute the only forum for free discussion In the United States,"

Choose Leaders Wisely. "Be careful of your leadersW." he advised. "Select only the best and most sincere men. The greatest enemies organized labor has are insincere leaders in the union. " ; "Several social reforms have been due to the efforts of organized labor. Unions have done more than any other organization to bring about the ; abolishment of child labor. Social workers, teachers and churches have given a great deal of assistance however. He explained that there are four things that a laboring man can do: Stand alone without affiliation with organization, follow the I. W. W. plan, follow the Rockefeller plan, join the labor union. Organization Needed. "No man can accomplish anything by acting as an individual. Men must

band together for the promotion of

their mutual interests and protection.

Labor unions are the logical orgamza tions."

The R. W. W. plan he did not dis

cuss, but he declared that the Rocke

feller plan wculd never work, because is is a type of feudalism, since it gives partial control of the employe to the

employer even in leisure time.' Under the plan a committee representing

the laboring men can call a meeting

with Mr. Rockefeller whenever any

thing does not suit them, and the dif

ference is settled that way. It pre

vents the men from having lndepend

ent orsanizations. The conditions

under which the men work are good and the employer furnishes good recreation for spare time. Mr. Leonard explained that he believed Mr Rockefeller was sincere but pointed out that the greatest strike ever known, the Chicago street car strike, was caused by such a system of feudalism. Genn Reports Loss. Richard Genn when called upon said that not many years ago there were four hundred union men in Richmond, but, he believed, there are only about

half that number belonging to the unions now. C. L. Summerson pointed out several specific laws that were detrimental to laboring men, and several that were beneficial to the employers. He said that although It may be a good thing to keep politics out of the unions, workingmen will never be satisfied until they elect men to office that do away with the laws that hamper them. T-Te trapftd th movement of the la

bor question. First, men wanted to be assured that they would not have to work from sunrise to sunset. Employees refused this. Laboring men were granted twelve-hour days. Then unions were organized and became powerful enough to shorten the day to ten hours. This, in some crafts, has been shortened to eight hours.

THSSSZSG i pltSYL Repeating over and over again that she was "Therese McDermott," 11-year-old Threse Duby is today on her way to her mother's home in Philadelphia. The little girl had been on the Philadelphia police "missing" list for almost a week. Vincent Pizzaro, of the Children's society, New York city, says that Therese's case is the strangest on record in the society. Last week the child was observed in the railroad station at Camden, N. J. She was crying unrestrainedly. , She told the railroad employes there that she had been separated from her brother, who was taking her to his home in New York. Therese told the men that she was Therese McDermott, and that her brother's name was Francis, and that he was a printer. Her story appealed to the men and they, put her on a New York bound train. They telephoned to John C. Oakley, a railroad detective, to meet the child in Jersey City. He did so.

FEEGER SHOWS POWER. Rev. A. J. Feeger discussed, "The Wonderful Power of Christ," at the Lenten service of the St. John's Lutheran church last night. ' He told of the

wonderful occurrences at the death of

Christ, the darkness, the resurrection of some of the dead and the renting of the curtains of the temple. All these demonstrations had a wonderful effect upon the sinners, he explained. HUBER SETS HIGH GOAL. "This One Third I Do," was Rev Conrad Huber's subject at the Lenten service of the. St. Paul's Lutheran church last night. The thought which he brought out was "forgetting the things which are behind." That is, he explained, men should cast from their minds those things which they should forget and should always strive towards the higher life. TEACHINGSMNFALLIBLE. "The Infallibility of the Church," was discussed by Rev. Frank A. Roell at the Lenten services of the St Andrew's Catholic church last night. He explained that by infallibility he did not mean that the Pope could not commit sin. He goes to confession the same as every other member of the church. His teachings, however, are necessarily infallible. The teachings of the Popes have always been reliable. The decisions of the general

council are also infallible for the same reason. PREPARE FOR JUDGMENT. "The Coming of Judgment Day" was the subject of Rev. A. B. Duffy at the Lenten services of ths St Mary's Catholic church last night He discussed the signs and warnings that will appear before the coming of the day as they are set fourth in the teachings of Christ. We should always be prepared for the coming of this day he said. '

MAYOR FAVORS

Continued From Page One. keenly intelligent somewhat familiar with the seamy side of life, tactful and possess unbounded interest in the

work. The right kind of a woman police officer could do a vast amount of good among young girls who do not have the proper kind of home Influences." . Force Below Limit The 'mayor called attention to the fact that Richmond now employs fewer police officers . than any city of Its

size In the state, principally to keep within expenses. Richmond is entitled to twenty-three patrolmen, one for each 1.000 population, and five officers below the rank of chief (one officer to every five, patrolmen). However, there are only eighteen patrolmen and one officer at the present time. Federated Club women take the position that because the police department is so much below its maximum personnel strength the police board could well afford to increase the force by the employment of one woman police officert especially in view of the

tact that there is so great need for such an officer. ; These women assert that there will be no difficulty in securing the right kind of a woman to fill such a position. President Eversman of the police board today said the board would "seriously consider? the appointment

of a woman officer. fi

That according to government statistics 98 of the American people are living from day to day. on their wages, and the loss of employment would mean pauperism for all but. 2 per cent?
