BLOUSES OF LINEN REAPPEAR

Linen has cut more of a figure In
blouses this season than It has for
several seasons, reappearing In dif
ferent weights and different manipu
lations. At one big city store this
fabric, In a medium soft weave, has
been chosen for the development of a
nqw series of overblouses to which
is given the name Bretalla.
The models are supposed to fill the
need for a waistcoat or gilet, but
built on ample, long-waisted lines, In
Btend of cleft after the manner of a
man's belt. They come, therefore,
with sleeves and without, but with
the sleeved more In the majority.

plaits, the whole blouse being con

finished with a three or four-Inch
band. This treatment has come to be
known as a Renee Idea, with the band
fastened to one side of the front In
such a manner that It lends Itself to
adjustment.

ROADS STAND BY
LOYAL jMPLOYEES
Tell President Harding Old and
New Men Must Be Protect
ed In Strike Settlement
NOT A MATTER OF CHOICE
Faithful Employees Have Both Legal
and Moral Rights to Seniority
arid Other Benefits.
New York. The keynote of the
reply made by railway executives
representing more than 180 Class 1
railroads of the United States to the
proposition ot President Harding that
"All strikers be returned to their work
and their former positions, with sen
iority and other rights unimpaired,"
lies in the last paragraph of their
reply to the president, as follows:
"It Is submitted that the striking;
former employees cannot be given
preference to employees at present
in the service without doing vio
lence to every principle of right
and justice involved in this matter
and without the grossest breach of
faith on the part of the railroads to
the men at present in their service.
"Under these circumstances, it
becomes apparent that the rail
roads Tannot consider any settle-
. ment of the present strike which
does not provide protection in their
f .resent employment both to the
oyal employees who remained in
the service and to the new em
ployees entering It."
The executives had accepted the
first two conditions proposed by the
president, namely,' that both employ
ers and employees accept the deci
sions of the labor board, and that all
law suits growing out of the strike
be withdrawn; and in relation to the
third .condition , state, not only ; as
above, but also as follows:
Agree With the President.
- "The railroad executives and man
agers agree entirely with the presi
dent's statement in his letter that it
is wholly unthinkable that the rail
road labor board can be made a use
ful agency of the government in main
taining Industrial peace in the rail
way service . unless employers and
workers are both prompt and unques
tioning , in their acceptance of its
decisions.. , ,
"Many men in the service refused
to join the strike and in so doing
were assured of the seniority rights
accruing to them and of the perman
ence of their positions. On some im
portant lines 50 per cent or more re
fused to join the strike. To these old
loyal employees have been added
thousands of new men who were em
ployed and could be secured only up
on a definite promise that their serv
ices would be retained, regardless of
the settlement of the strike, with all
the rights appertaining to such em
ployment, including that of seniority
under the working rules and regula
tions previously approved by the rail
road labor board.
"Just the Opposite Effect."
"We especially point out that a re
fusal to the i men who remained
In the service and to the new men who
accepted service of the rights of sen
iority incident to their employment
would have just the opposite effect
to that desired by the president, and
would most seriously discredit the
labor board.
"The board itself prescribed the
rules of seniority under which the
man referred to have secured
their seniority rights, and the rail
road companies have neither the legal
nor moral right to deprive these men
of those rights. By public utterances
since the strike began the board has
recognized and emphasized these
rights, and to deny them now would,
Instead of upholding the authority of
the labor board, overthrow Its rules
and discredit its authority. The chair
man of the labor board at the time
the strike was called made the fol
lowing public statement:
" 'Upon one question the striking
employees should not be deceived.
Their leader has said lhat the
strikers are no longer employees
of the railways, and they have thus
automatically abandoned all the
rights they possess under their
agreements and under the decisions
of the board, Including their sen
iority. This Is not the board's ac
tion. It Is their own. Many car
riers are giving their former em
ployees the opportunity to re-enter
the sfirvlce within a limited time.
It nrust be understood now that
men who remained In the service
and those who are now entering it
will have rights of seniority that
the board could not ignore.'
What the Proposed Plan Means.
"It must be understood that any
proposal that employees now on strike
shall be permitted to return (b the
service without Impairment to their
seniority, is merely another way of
suggesting that those men who took
employment In this crisis in good
faith, relying on the promises of the
railroads to protect them in their
positions, these promises being Justi
fied by the authoritative utterances
of the labor board, and thus have
made possible the continued operation
of the railroads, shall now be sacri
ficed In favor of men now on strike,
who not only brought about the crisis,
but, by their own action and declara
tion, are no longer employees of the
railways, under the jurisdiction of the
United States Railroad Labor Board
or subject to the application of the
transportation act
"In addition to the necessity of up
holding the labor board and maintain
ing the pledges made hv the railroads
to the men now at wcrk. 'here is the
practical effect on the t..; -visory of
fleers of viola' -i of !- pledge
thty were autho u m ' T e
discouragement 1 dsn. -would
be far more 'xsastroug i. ,-n i
or any other strike."

CUSTER'S CROW SCOUTS
There were six of them, these war
riors of the Crow or Absuroke nation,
who rode with Custer on his .last
march down the Little Big Horn river
In Montana that day In June, 1S76.
When the leader of the Seventh caval
ry asked General Terry for his best
Crow scouts in the camp on the Little
Kosebud creek, Terry told him he
could have Curley, "White Man Runs
Him," Hairy Moccasin, "Goes Ahead,"
Tellow Face and White Swan. The
Crows were glad to serve with the
famous Indian fighter and they guided
hltu until they located the hostile camp
cn the Little Big Horn. . :
When Custer divided his command
to attack the village, Yellow Face and
White Swan were sent with Major
Reno and Custer kept "White Man
Runs Him," Curly, "Goes" Ahead" and
Hairy Moccasin with him. Yellow
Face was killed while fighting with
Reno, and White Swan was badly
wounded, but finally recovered and
lived until 1905. .
Today Curley Is the 'only survivor
of the Custer Crow scouts and, ac
cording to his story, he la the last
man who saw his commander alive.
After crossing the ridge, Custer
turned to "White Man Runs Him,"
Hairy Moccasin and "Goes Ahead,"
and said to them : "You have done
your duty. You have led me to the
enemy. My soldiers will do the fight
ing. You are to go now and save
your lives." The scouts left htm and
made their way to the pack train un
der Capt. Tom McDougall.
When Curley returned from Reno's
position, he was given the same or
der. He started and soon found him
self lo the midst of a hot fight. Find
ing a dead Sioux warrior,' he took his
horse, gun and blanket. Wrapping
the blanket about his head to conceal
his Crow, scalplock from the Sioux,
Curley suceeded In reaching a high
butte. Looking back he saw that
Custer had charged down upon the
Indians and was surrounded. Curley
says that be Watched the battle until
he saw Custer, who was the last man
standing, fall and then he rode away.
The next morning the Crow scout
appeared In General Terry's camp.
He could not speak English and there
was no Interpreter. Curley took
blades of grass, piled them all In a
heap, and then, exclaiming "PoufI
Pouf!" In Imitation of the sound of
a gun, scattered them wide apart. By
means of this he made the officer un
derstand that Custer and all of his
men had been killed. Like the fa
mous Greek, Curley the Crow was a
messenger of disaster and he brocght
the first news of this Thermopylae of
America Custer's last fight.

The party called may be unwilling

but true, calls are sometimes designedly
unanswered. i .
