A PRINTER dope SHEET"

The local Typographical Union will
vote soon on several propositions sub
mitted to the referendum by the Hot
Springs convention. AS usual, the sal
airy proposition comes up again.
Under all the circumstances, The
Wageworker believes that the PROPOSE
ton to increase the salaries of the
president and vice president should
be defeated. This is due in no wise
to any personal antagonism to the
gentlemen holding those important
positions. At present the president
and secretary receive $1,000 year
each, this including their services as
trustees of the Home. In addition to
this they have very liberal expense
accounts. The rank and file have
been making great sacrifices for two
years to make the eight-hour day a
reality, and the per cent assessment
is still in force. We cheerfully admit
that all else being equal the inter-
national officers should be better paid,
but we submit in all candor that the
time to grant that increase is not
when the rank and file are paying an
assessment that has taken more than
$500 per man during the past eighteen
months. The International officers
may deem an increase due them, but
they ought to be willing to make sac
rificeS like the rest of us. A salary
Of yr,if1 |,

wages under all the circumstances
The argument that there are foremen
drawing that much or more is of no
holding cards in the Typographical
Union who receive more than $2,1O0
a year, let alone their expenses.
If The Wageworker is not mistaken
the prevailing sentiment is that no
increase of salary should be granted
until the eight hour fight is wholly
settled and the assessment removed.

Or. do you want to know something of the

Most intelligent and sensible people

employ whether as food or as medicine.
DIR. Pierce believes they have perfect,
right TO insist upon such knowledge. So he
publishes, broadcast and on each bottle

he can well afford to do because the more
the ingredients of which his medicines
are made are studied and understood the
more will their superior curative virtues
be appreciated.
