wasted every year by tuberculosis.
Few cities in the world present so

New York. From the standpoint of

Because of the high rents in New

Young Sherry Quits Work in Steel Mills

pits next to the open hearth furnaces
with the Servians and Hungarians.
Young Sherry never shirked in his
duties, but was always on hand at
six o'clock in the morning, carrying
his lunch in a tin dinner bucket and
eating it with the rest of the dirt-be-
grimed workmen.
When young Sherry started to work
at the mills; he was put to work
as a checking clerk, working II hours
day; later he was transferred to Diff
ferent departments of the mills, and
at times he was put on the night shift.
He never complained about his work,
but performed his allotted tasks cheer
fully. and has received nothing but
highest commentator from his en-
ployer, Superintendent s. E. Yost of
the open hearth furnace, For the
work Sherry received $50 month.
Sherry went to Gary at the re-
quest of w. E. Corey of the
United States Steel Corporation,
who is a close friend Of his father.
He received his education at the Law
renceville school in Virginia. Rather
than take course in college he de-
cfded to 60 to Gary and learn the steel
business. His home in New York is
at COL West One Hundred and Tenth
street, near Riverside drive.

4 N EFFORT to limit the volume of
~ special pension legislation will be
made by Senator McCumber, chair
man of the committee on pensions,
before the adjournment of the present
extra session of congress. Such legis-
lation has grown rapidly until, during
the last congress, about 5000 bills, the
object of most of which was to in
crease existing pensions, were passed.
During the present session about
1000 bills providing for pensions not
obtainable under the general pension
laws have been introduced in the SEN
ate alone.
The reasons urged for such legis-
lation have been in the nature of ex-
ceptional conditions either relating to
the necessities of the applicant or to
failure on his part to satisfy the
technicalities of the law, although he
could prove to the satisfaction of q
committee that he was entitled to
consideration.
But such legislation has grown 80
rapidly that either it must be limited
or the pension committees of the SEN
ate and house will have to receive an
additional force, making them, in fact,
pension bureaus of considerable size.
To meet this condition, and to place
some limitation upon pension legisla-
ton, Senator McCumber proposes to
arrange joint meeting of the pension
committees Of congress, when some
plan with this purpose in view will b
considered
