fic provision that the money be spent
for that purpose. These members hire
stenographers' at small salaries and
pocket the difference.
There are still other members OF the
house who have devised another
scheme by which they appropriate q
portion of the s125 month. Three or
four of them get together, select q
secretary who shall do the work of the
entire group and pay him $125. When
five members make such a. combination
1T costs them only SIS a week for clerk
hire, showing a profit of $40 q week.
Another scheme practiced by a few
OF the members is to do without secre.
taries altogether but still draw down
the $125 a month. Whenever they
have any stenographic work to be done
they gather up their correspondence,
go over to the house and dictate to the
public stenographers. paying SO much
per letter for the work
The secretaries association is now
demanding that members of the house
spend the $125 month as the law di-
reefs and pay the full amount to their
clerks They have list Of members
who either keep the entire amount or
else pocket a portion of it and they
threaten to make the list public unless
they are protected by having their
names put on the regular governments
pay rolls.
