Philadelphia May 5.-All efforts to compromise
the dispute between the Allied Building Trades

the Steamitters' Union. eight journeymen steam
filters and ten helpers left their work at the con-
vention hall
This order was issued because the carpenters at
work at that point members of the Brother
hood. That organization has been declared nom
union by the Council of the Allied Building Trades,
and none Of the affiliated unions will allow mem
bers to work on the same job with them.
BY Monday work on the convention hall will have
advanced to a stage where painters and plumbers

will refuse to go to work unless the Brotherhood
carpenters are withdrawn from the job. There

the horses and the names of their owners were

records below 40 were stated to be without

credited with marks which in many cases

MAXWELL TALKS ABOUT CoLER.

UNTRUE THINGS ABOUT DAVIS BILL

GOV EhNMENI SAID MANY HARSH AND
UNTRUE THINGS ABOUT DAVIS BILL
The second annual dinner of the Male Teachers
Council of the Borough of Queens held last
night at the AIdine Club. About fifty members
with their wives. present. The guest of honor
was William H. Maxwell City Superintendent of
Schools. Superintendent Maxwell made an address.
in which he dwelt principally the recently
passed Davis bill. He said in part:
The bill is one of which all ought to be proud
not only because IL aids the salaries of the teach
ers of Manhattan and The Bronx, but because II
raises the salaries of the teachers IN Queens and
Richmond to the level those in the other
the money needed for the schools is not left at the
mercy Of any Board OF Estimate and Apportion-
ment whether il be Republican. Democratic or
PrOhibitiontSt The greed of politics cannot here
after enter the question of teachers salaries
Some members of the city government have been
outspoken against the bin, and one Of them has
even said many harsh and untrue things about II.
l think he did this because little power has been
taken Of his hands Hereafter teachers will
be paid for their services
l think that in about sin weeks or two months
all will paid. 1t takes little time 10 audit
all the bills but they will be paid as soon ats ii is
possible.
4 great deal of the credit for the passage of the
bill is due Auditor Cook, Of the Board OF EduCa
ton. Ii he who explained the uniform rate
for teachers to the Governor and IL was he who
got the Governor to SIGN the bill.
Superintendent Maxwell closed by praising the
teachers OF Queens for their patience in waiting
"for the long expected relief"
