Washington, Feb. 1. Declaring low wages are the chief cause of Immoral lty among women, Senator Works of California testified today In the senate hearing on the La Follette bill establish Ing an eight-hour work day for women In Washington. He stated: "The underpaid women go on the streets to increase their small wages. This measure Is aimed at improving the moral life by giving the women a de cent chance. If the employer suffers, I would favor having the publlo bear the loss." Senators Kenyon of Iowa, and Jones of Washington, Indorsed the measure while Senator Dillingham of Vermont, opposed it. J. E. Watts. An event literally scintillant was the dinner given by the Sons of Jove in. honor of J. K. Watts, national head of the order, In the Imperal hotel last night Electrical contrivances of many kinds contributed uniqyaness to the entertain ment. Just aa the soup was served the room beeamo very flark and In a min ute a huge red devil, patron of the or ganization, sprang into brilliant relief before startled eyes. F. W. Hlld, as toastmaster, called upon one after , an other for comments. When Jokes were hard to get or too much time taken, an electric wail apparently emanating from the red devil's lips made further bear ing of the speaker impossible. M. Watts, whose title is "reigning Jupiter," told of the comparative new ness of the Order of Jove; an organiza tion which is rapidly evolving from pure fraternalism Into a cooperative body of men numbering 9000 In 50 branch or ganizations of as many large cities of the United States, He urged upon them more activity in . propogating the co. operative .principle, saying that In tho west, where power, mostly undeveloped, abounds. For the future ho predicted a strength to the order and Influence Of Its pronouncements excelled by none. George H. Sailor enumerated the prop ositions which tiio order has been work ing for, including the contractors' li cense law the agricultural extension measure, and the Celilo and Deschutes power development measures.
