Washington, D. C.-*-A Women's
Industrial Conference to be held in
Washington under the direction of the
U.'. S. department of labor from Jan
Uftvy 18 to
2f,
This conference will be the second
occasion on which the department of
labor has called together the women
of the country who are concerned
with industrial and economic prob
lems. Three years ago the first
Women's Industrial Conference was
held in Washington, the delegates
numbering several hundred women,
representing most of the.women'* or
ganizations in the country.
The coming conference, like the first
one, is to be held under the direction
of the women's bureau of the U. S.
department of labor.
MUSCLE SHOALS
.* ISSUE AGAIN UP
TO CONGRESS
Washington.—Final disposition of
lluscle Shoals will be hotly contested
in this congress. At the last session
the senate rejected Senator Under
wood's plan to turn this water power
over to private concerns that were
associated, it was charged, with the
General Electric Company and the
Morgan interests. The senate creat
ed a commission to study the question.
That commission is divided, and the
two reports are in the hands of the
president. It is said that the major
ity report includes the general prin
ciples of Senator Underwood's plan,
while the minority recommends leas
ing the property to private operators
if suitable terms can be obtained.
K this can not be done, government
operation to demonstrate the possibil
ities of the property is favored.
SENATOR WHEELER
WINS
Washington.—In an attempt to con
vict Senator Wheeler of violation of
the general mine-leasing law, the de
partment of justice was forced to
acknowledge that the law was not vio
lated, but it hoped that the court's
construction of the law will make it
possible to convict the Montana sen
ator.
Friends of Senator Wheeler ask if
this does not sustain their claim that
the indictment is backed by a desire
to avenge the department of justice
for Wheeler's attacks on former At
torney General Daugherty Who
Spired the indictment?

JL Francis I, King of Prance, when he
learned that his armies had been de
feated by those of Emperor Charles
of Austria, and that he would .be
forced to forfeit a large part
of hi*
dominions.
Francis i was born iu 1494 and died
in 1547. He ascended the French
throne in 1515, having succeeded his
uncle, Louis XII. He laid claim to the
,-ir.v of Milan, and In enforcing his
claim, defeated the Swiss on the plains
of Marignano and forced the reigning
duke. Maximilian Sforxa, to acknowl
edge his claims.
became one
of the competitors for the empire of
Maximilian but the choice fell on
Charles of Austria, the grandBon of
Maximilian, and from that time on the
two inonarchs were bitter rivals.
Charles assumed the title of Charles
V, and his armies and those of Francis
I were continually warring. Both
sought the aid of Kngland and the sup
port of the English government wae,
a' different times,
with Francis and
then with Charles.
It was with the idea of cementing
the friendship existing between him
fnd the king of England that Francis
I invited the English monarch, Henry
\VIII, to an interview which took place
hear Oaiuls. Francis spared no ex
pense to nee that this affair was the
most magnificent that had been staged
and money was spent so lavishly In ar
ranging the details of the meeting that
the place where it was held has been
referred to as the "Field of the Cloth
.f Gold."
la the year 1521. war broke out be
tween Francis and Charles and Francis
was finally taken prisoner. He was
granted his release only on condition
that he renounce his claim to some of
his greatest possessions. A later war
in which England sided with Francis
prevented the carrying out of these
denmnds (ff Charles, but soon after this
Francis found himself engaged in an
other war In which the fickle king of
England sided with Charles. Peac
was concluded at Crespy, very for
tunately for the worn-out armies of the
French monarch.
