THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA 2 1 <4 FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1913. BELGIUM GIVES IN TO SUERS' DEMANDS Government Accepts Compro- •mise Bill Against Plural Voting-Strike to End BRUSSELS, Belgium, April 24.—The BRUSSELS, Belgium, April 22.—The Belgian government is reported to be about to accept a compromise and thus bring to an end the political strike of half a million workers who demand equal suffrage. The strike has crippled industry and commerce in Belgium for the last ten days. The compromise is regarded as favor able to the workmen, nearly hal/' a miN lion for equal suffrage. The leaders of the oScialist trades unions and their followers gained their chief point, which was to make the government take up for consideration a change of the Belgian parliamentary franchise with its hated system of plural votes for the wealthier and more educated classes. The Chamber of deputies adopted a resolution by M. Masson with an amend ment moved by the premier, condemn ing the principle of a general strike. When the chamber of deputies met this afternoon there was a tense feel ing of expectancy. The conciliatory motion of F. Masson, Liberal leader, was taken up immediately. Deputy Liebaert, a clerical, proposed an additional clause reading: ‘The chamber disapproves and condemns the general strike.” Premier de Broqueville accepted the motion as amended and'ask.ed the other members of his party not to suggest any changes. The Scxdalist leader. Emile Vande- velde. then spoke, saying: “We, the deputies on the left, support M. Mas son’s motion for a compromise. It re mains for us to convoke a Socialist congress, which alone has the power to decide whether the strike shall end or not. but we have the conviction that j the adoption of the motion will be a j step in advance.” The first part of the motion was then i adopted unanimously by the chamber. The Socialists ‘voted against the sec- j ond part of the motion, but it was car ried by the Conservatives and Liberals, the vote standing 124 to 39. The Social ists abstained from voting when the two parts of the motion were taken to gether. In that way ti was carried by a vote of 138 to 2.

As Assistant Secretary Williams, of the treasury department, was about to transfer a woman clerk to another de partment he received a hurried telephone call from tw6 prominent United States senators to postpone action until they could indorse theih constituent’s pro test. Personally, today they presented her claims to recognition from the Demo crats on the ground that she was a suf fragist steeped in Democratic principles for the triumph of which she had work ed during the campaign. Mr. Williams listened attentively and then shoved before the senators a rumu- lative file of papers covering the case, including letters from this now “life long Democrat” to officials of the pre ceding administration in which she sought preference on the ground that she was a “blahk and tan Republihan.’* She was transferred.

BOSTON, April 24.—Mary Konovsky's testimony which has figured recently in published discussions of industrial con ditions, was the subject of the address of President Edwin F. Green at the opening today of the annual meeting of the National Association of Cotton Manufacturers. The fictitious name of Mary Konov- sky has Been given to a Russian-Poland girl, twenty-two years old who was em ployed in a textile mill at Little Falls, N. Y., at $6 a week and struck for $6.90. t“The testimony of Mary Konovsky (before th© commisioner of arbitration) has been published throughout the coun try,” said Mr. Green. “In consequence thousands of kind- hearted people have grieved over the pitiable condition of this poor Poland. Mary Konovsky stands before the com mission. She is a poor human creature, born and bred in poverty and misery, uneducated, untrained, stolid, stupid, but possessed of an immortal soul and eager for the betterment of her condition. She wants $6.90 a week and will be satisfied with that amount. Her former employ er, a manufacturer, who has a large factory representing an investment ex ceeding $1,000,000 who is the agent of the stockholders of his .company, all of whom demand that he run this factory at a profit, says outspokenly: “ ‘I will pay Mary Konovsky $6 a week and this is more than she is worth. She has no industrial training. I want trained, educated girls, if I can get them.’ “You have heard the despised em ployer. kind ladies $nd gentlemen. The services of Mary Konovsky are for sale. He bids $6 a week. What will you bid? You, mistress housewife, with tender eyes, will you pay more than $6 a week ? “ ‘No,* you say. ‘She cannot speak English. She knows nothing of the mechanism of a modern kitchen, I don’t want her.’ “You, Mr. Storekeeper, what will you give? You could not use her services. She is unprepossessing and uncouth. “All the rest of you, doctors, lawyers, clergymen, politicians, editors, what will you bid for the services of Mary Konov sky? “She wants only $6.90 a week. For God’s sake, gentlemen, don't let the cruel mill get her again. Take her into your homes, into your offices, into your studies, give her a chance in the world. You all cry together, ‘we don’t want her. We have no use for her, but make that mill pay her a living wage.’ “The cotton mills and woolen mills in this country are the training schools for hundreds of thousands of work peo ple, transforming them from ignorant and clumsy foreigners into skilled, self- respecting, educated Americans.” Mr. Green said that the business of the cotton mills, on the whole, was poor.

Insanity Causes More Vice Than ”Living Wages" (By Associated Press.) BOSTON, April 24.—Many of the “working girls who fall” and at least 50 per cent of the men and women sentenced to prison or other criminal institutions are feeble minded according to Dr. W. E. Fernald, superintendent of the state hospital for the feeble minded at Waverly who addressed a meeting at the City club last night. Dr. Fernald said only 2,000 of the 12.- 000 feeble minded persons in Massachu setts are under restraint. “Unless the state extends its system of restraint and segregation to these afflicted per sons, the increase of criminals and the girls who fall will be appalling,” he declared. “Investigations by the vice commis sions show that from 25 to 40 per cent of the girls who fail to protect them selves are feeble minded. It is really not so much a question of low wages, the committee found, as it is that the girls have no resistance power.” INDICTED, CHARGED WITH FORGING DEED L, R, Kinard and Hill Kinard, His Nephew, Indicted for Us- - ing G, W, Davis’ Name (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)

TO-HAV. 1 WASHINGTON, April 24.—Senator Chamberlain's resolution for the abro gation of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, in the opinion of state department of ficials, will be confronted with the con tention that neither that treaty nor the Clayton-Bulwer treaty can be abrogated by the action of the United States with out the consent of Great Britain. These treaties, the officials point out. are in the nature of rival contracts and where one party, the United States for instance, has acquired a valuable con sideration finder their terms, it cannot escape the liability without the full con sent of tlie second party. Diplomatically and according to the verbiage of international law, the status of the United States, they hold, is one of “national servitude.” Legal officers of the government seem to be of the opinion that nothing can be done by the president or congwess toward terminating the treaties except by the consent g of Great Britain or un der the terms o'f an arbitration.

Many of the 2,000 men thrown out of employment had been given odd jobs and supplies but that did not appease the maority. Early yesterday, he continued, a crowd of 2,500 persons surrounded his office and sent a delegation of four, accompa nied by Colonel Alvarado, of the state troops, and Prefect Durazo, to him with four demands. “They declared must immediately ap point a successor as general manager of the company; they said I must leave Ca nanea at once as under article 33 of the Mexican constitution I had been adjudg ed by the people, a pernicious character, that Governor Pasquiero would arrive Tuesday with the demand that the mines be reopened and all idle men put to work and that if the company did not imme diately operate the mines they would see that another company did.” Douglas said Colonel Alvarado had only 200 soldiers there and was unable to control the situation. “He advised me to leave as did officials of the company, so I closed up my business as well as 1 could and left a few hours later. I don’t know what the company will do.” English Judge Tells Militants He Would Like to Deport Them (By Associated Press.) MANCHESTER.
