Mrs. Harrlman was named by Mr. Gompers, who is chairman of the com mittee on labor of the national council of defense's advisory commission,, to be chairman of the sub-committee on women in Industry. Mr. Gompers explained I that the names of several trade union women were thought of when the chairman ship was considered, but all were per forming Indispensable service to their organization "and It seemed necessary to appoint some one as chairman who could afford to give all her time and perform the work gratuitously."

Asser tion that some or all of the South and Central American republics, China, Spain, Seandanavla, Holland and Swit zerland probably will declare war on Germany-was made In a speech before the annual meeting of the American Iron and Steel Institute here by Judse K. H. Gary. of the United States Steel corporation today. 'Th' United States did not desire and nersUtentlv sought to avoid trouble with Germany." said Gary "Wo have entered upon a colossal un dertaking of the highest moral firrnn n rl Tint none of us realize the strpnath of the enemy. "The allies' greatest element of strength is their principle of right makes right. Sacrifices Are Necessary. "Mv answer to the question, what are we fighting for. is: 'We are fight ing firmly to establish and perman entlv maintain a basis whereby every international question In dispute must be determined In accordance with HJ principles of Justice." 'The time, money and prayers of all civilians must be given to our sol diers and sailors. "The pecuniary burdens to be im posed on us will be very great. All should be willing to sacrifice. The iron and stel industry will cheerfully hear Its share of the load. Personal in terests will yield to the necessities of the country we love. Enemy's Strength Is Great. "Tax burdens must be equitably dis tributed. The necessities of life should be exempted. The channels of business prosperity should not be oloERed by taxation." After reviewing the events leading up to the declaration of war with Ger many, Gary said: "It is doubtful if any of us fully realizes the streprnth of the enemy, even though we know his grim deter mination. His numbers, preparednes. resources, devices, creative ability, 'methods, protective bnrrlers, means of rapid mobilization and transfer of troons and sunnlles. are further ad vanced In effectiveness than any other army or armies ever have been. i Other Neutrals May Join. "For the reason that we are right and the enemy is wrong, we shall prob ably see other nations of strength and Importance now-- neutral In attitude join the allies if the war shall be pro tracted. "These countries could not afford to permit their people to become sub ject to the dominance of a ntaion which considers force Is the only con sideration for aggression and expan sion." c Gary then turned to the public's part In winning the war:1 "The task which confronts the coun try Is not confined to the army and navy, although they will be entitled to the larger part of the credit and glory when we succeed. Flg-hting in Self Defense. "They offer their bodies as a sacri fice and they must have the un divided, unqualified support of all out side their ranks. '.'All of us are fighting in self de fense. lAfe would not be worth Hying If our flag were to be permanently furled; If our country were subjugated by an alien enemy, especially such a one as we now defend ourselves aga Inst." Gary then spoke of war taxes: "We do ourselves injustice by har boring the thought that the govern ment is partisan, trying to unfairly treat the private individual in the matter of taxes. Obliterate Differences, Advice. "We can rightfully claim only that the burden of taxation be equitably distributed; that there shall be no waste or extravagance in making ex penditures. "Less than this would tend to cre ate classes the worst thing for any country. "Now is the time to unite the coun try in a common cause. "The sol diers are on a level. All others ought to be. Classes, politics, locality and religious differences should be oblit erated." Gary concluded by thanking the government for "its spirit of coopera tion with business."
