CHAMPIONS HELLO GIRL
ATTORNEY TELLS RATE COMMITS
SION THEY ARE UNDERPAID.
Says Better Telephone Service Is De-
pendent on Better Conditions
Of Operators.

MADISON, Wis, May Isl Special
Fred {. Loreuz of Milwaukee appeared
in an argument before the railroad rate
commission today regarding the service
Of the Bell Telephone company in Mil
waukee. HIS argument in opening was
primarily an argument in favor of raising
the wages of the telephone operators de-
caring that this is the only way to I'M
prove the service of the company.
Mr.. LOrenz criticised the company for
changing help 50 often. OF the 800 girls
employed by the company on September
10, last, over 80 were receiving less
than 10 cents per day, he said. This
means they had not been in the employ
of the company for three months.
Mr.. LorenZ said that the cOmplalnants
against the service of the telephone COM
pany in Milwaukee contended that the
force of operators should be increased
second, the young, inexperienced girls
should be eliminated, and only those eX-
perienced in answering 80 calls per
hour and having standing for accuracy
of ut least % per cent, should be EN-
ploycd. Mr.. Lorenz contended that the
girls should be employed for only eigh:
hours and they should not be compelled
to work every Sunday.

Fire in the warehouses of the Lchigh
Valley Transportation company Thurs

a monetary loss of at least $4,000, OF
which $4,000 was to the contents OF

utes. Schroeder was missed when he ana
not return with the axe and a search for
HIM was made 1t was thought that
he had been injured and was taken -
d hospital and the search was abandoned.
Search Is Resumed
This morning, Chief Clancy caused
further search to be made and with IN"
assistance Of the lie saving crew IN
command of Capt Ingar Olson located
the body near the dock after dragging

In going after the axe. Schroeder was
obliged to pass along the edge Ol lhr

fusion he fell into the water and with
the great noise Of fire engines all about
him his cries for help were not heard.
Much Valuable Merchandise
The warehouses of the Lchigh Val
ley Transportation company are III
the rear of 81 Reed street, between the
Milwaukee road tracks aud the south

of the fire fighters kept the blaze from
