PARIS, May 20. (Special Cable.)
There is no knowledge to what depth
French writers will go in criticising;
President Wilson, America, Lloyd
CJeoree and Great Britain.
The war brought forth, its share and
the peace conference proved another
big field for writers of scandal. And
row tha$ the senate has thrown out
the Versailles treaty and "Wilson has
called France "militarist" there ap
pears to be no limit to the insulting
the word is really not strong: enough
remarks cast on those persons and
their countries.
French weeklies of low morale have
now joined in and by eartoens depict
France's "suffering" at the hands of
America and Great Britain.
Undoubtedly the worst criticism yet
published in Faris is contained in a
recent issueof Le Rire. Long articles
deal with this "country's misfortunes
while cartoons show "prosperous
America and England gloating over
their 'victory' during the war and
during the conference."
Le Hire's leading-article in the issue
mentioned above' is entitled "Good
jitght. Messieurs les Francais, or the
Art of 'Beating It' in the Anglo-Saxon
way."
Chestnuts Out of Fire.
"Again we have said to them, 'You
fire first,' " reads the opening para
graph, and it continues "but they did
not wait till we told them to pull all
the clothes over on their side. ' All
that we have done is to take the chest
nuts but of the fire. During the war
we had an 'adv-ntage' over our allies.
The proudest Englishman would say
'France should lead the entente.' Ef
fectively she led all the attacks and
every one found that was quite cor
rect. "As soon as the armistice was
signed, however, this right of prece
dence was denied us. British and
American diplomats gave us to un
derstand that we could no longer oc
cupy the front line trenches. On the
military front our position was all in
dicated, but on the economic front the
third line trenches were good enough
for . us. There was quite enough in
honor and glory to satisfy us. Far
more than any one else we loved and
admired the stars in Old Glory. I tisn't
our fault if today they don't shine
with the same brilliancy in our sky
of confidence."
Thus ends the first article. The
one following, just as bitter, reads:
Bandits Allotrcd to Go.
"You remember the aggression
which had as its scene a certain
quarter of Europe? A gang of ban
dits, which had long been disturbing
peace-loving citizens, attacked us at
the corner ot Brussels street just
after we had heard a fine speech by
benator Leon Burgeois (.today presi
dent of the French senate) on disarm
ament. We were a few British,
French, Belgian and Russian friends.
At the first assault the Belgians re
sisted, then we shouldered the whale
burden. 'Hold fast,' said our English
friends at the outset. Later the
Americans came and repeated the
" same thing.
We held on all through the war.
but now tht peace has come we hol4
nothing. The bandits were success
fully driven off. but not arrested. 'Let
them run!' said the English. When
wo showed our astonishment and
asked the British. 'Do you mean to
say you don't want those people ar
rested and punished as they deserve?
we trot the answer, 'They are not so
naughty as that,' and when we
showed our friends how the bandits
had left us we were told: 'Do not
complain; they might have killed
you.
"At this time a big white-toothed
devil came forward and, with a large
smile, said: rcace be with you.'
"'Which peace?' we asked.
"'True peace; that which unites al
peoples. Forgive those who have of
fended you. That is the word of our
divine master.'
"But, we remarked, 'we do not
know who that divine master was.
Ve know of two divine masters for
the American Monroe and Busi
ness." "
Bitter Crliicutiu Soted.
Attacks and counter attacks against
America and Britain occupy another
pa.c or two. The articles are worded
iu satirical phrases. They deal with
all the questions of the peace treaty,
and all through them there shoots
out a poisoned spear of insulting crit
icism. The series of cartoons begins with
one showing a Frenchman addressing
Uncle Sam and John Bull and saying:
"One would say we no longer under
stood each other," to which America
and England reply: "My little friend,
we can't all the time be speaking
French."
Another shows a stout and bloated
miss representing England in com
pany with an equally stout American
soldier. "Let us be 'franc,' " they
chorus. "If we have changed it is
rather to our advantage."
Extracts from the Bible serve as
captions to other cartoons, such as
"JoBeph Sold by His Brethren," in
which one sees Joseph as a small
French soldier, stranded before Ger
many, while the brethren are Amer
ica and England carrying away huge
bags of coin.
"Mary has chosen the better part,
it shall not be taken away from her,"
is the caption for another. It shows
Germania happy in the arms of Amer
ica represented by President Wilson,
while France in the background 1 is
making slow headway in rebuilding
her devasted districts.

welfare conference, called to con
siqer. a minimum wage tor women
employed in the manufacturing in
dustry, this afternoon recommended
to the welfare commission the es
tablishment of a minimum weekly
wage of $1$, being the estimate of the
conference of the lowest wage ade
quate to supply the necessary cost of
living and to maintain the workers in
health and comfort.
Vete Stand Five to Four.
The recommendation was adopted
by a vote of 6 to 4. "R. H.-Butler, one
of the conferees representing the
employers, voted against the adoption
of the recommendation in the con
ference but signed the report before
it was presented to the commission.
Regulation of working conditions
in the manufacturing industries as
proposed had the unanimous support
of the conferees. These regulations
provide that a six-day week shall be
established for workers in factories,
except in the case of perishable
foods; that "out work" and ''home
work" shall not be permitted unless
the names of the women eo employed
are reported to the commission and
the same wage shall prevail as is
required in the industry; that women
shall not work to exceed five hours
in any one day without a rest neriod:
that where less than full time em
ployment is offered, a proper schedule
of hours shall be posted in the es
tablishment not later than noon of
the preceding day: that the meal
period shall be at least 30 minutes;
that an adequate room shall be pro
vided for rest, change of clothing and
lor eating lunches; that women shall
not be permitted to lift or carry any
Burden over 25 pounds.

is allowed ten days under the law
to accept or reject the recommenda
tions of the conference. The com
mission will meet in Seattle on June
2 or 3 to hear protests on the report,
it was announced following adjourn
ment of the conferees.
Employers are - understood to be
dissatisfied with the wage recom
mendation and will probably test the
question in the courts. Legal pro
ceedings are already pending, attack
Ing the legality of the action of the
commission in putting in effect
minimum wage of $18 in the hotel
and restaurant branches, as recom
mended by a former conference. The
