BY GEORGE MARTIN (United Press Staff Correspondent.) New York, Jan. 30. Five thousand delegates to the National Daylight Saving convention came here from all over the country today to see if they can't get Father Time to shoulder his scythe and walk back sixty minutes the first of May. It will be explained to the old man that he can run and catch up with the lost hour again September 30. The idea, he will be informed, is to make use of the added hour of daylight we have between those dates. We can get up an hour earlier, go to work an hour earlier, quit an hour earlier and have an extra hour of daylight to have a good time in. It may be news to a lot of folks to 'known that in Cleveland and Dayton, Ohio, this daylight saving scheme has been in force for two years. Every body knows it was used throughout Europe and in Canada last year with good results. The old man with the scythe will havo plenty of evidence presented to convince him. Borough President Marks of this city will introduce each of the speakers, among whom will be Representative William P. Borland of Missouri, whose bill making daylight saving a national law, is now ponding in congress. Then President Marks will intro duce representatives of practically ev ery civic organisation in this country and delegates from England, Scotland, Russia, Poland, Holland and Canada. Robert Garland of Pittsburg will speak for the chambers of commerce, ex-Governor John K. Tener for the health experts who want more day light to fight the white plague; John Mitchel for the industrial commission, i Mayor Mitchel, Harriett Stanton ; Blatch, Arthur Brisbane and others also will speak. Columbia University's astronomer, Harold Jacoby, will speak scientifical ly to the venerable Brentlemen an J T. I S. Whitchouse, a member of pariia 'nicnt from London will argue with him. Georgo Ade of the National lawn Tennis association will speak on i the added time for recreation afforded by the plan. S. J. Halle of the Stand ard Time committee of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce will tell h'JW they like the idea in Ohio. All the speakers will stress the point that this plan will save the coun try $100,000,000 in light and power expenses during the summer months. This is expected to knock the old man off his seat.

"The board of trade withdrew large numbers of skilled men from the anny to carry on ship construction, but the liquor traffic could release enough ar tisans to make 800,000 tons in six months. "Coal shortage compelled the with drawal of 11,000 miners from the army to resume mining while liquor manufacture consumes the output of G000 miners. "The government passed the work ers' customary holidays but loss of time directly traceable to alcohol equals a three-month vacation by the entire ration."
