Five foreign governmental commun-

United States bearing Red Cross stamps
or any other such insignias.
-Four OF these countries refuse abso-
Iutely 70 receive them under any CIR

Postofhce Department they must be

Germany's Stand.
The country which is willing 10 re-
ceive them II placed on the back or

foreign restriction placed upon the
stamps is made because such stamps
confuse the foreign postal authorities
with the regular stamps OF the United
States.

ISTHNUS WORKERS
WANT MORE WAGES
Discomfort Rife Among
Americans at Panama
Despite High Pay.
By WALTER ]. FAHY.


Just so long as the United States Gov
ernment continues to dig the Panama
canal just so long VIII the men work
ing on the job kick about the wages
they receive.
1t matters not that they are better
paid than similar classes Of wage-earn-
ers in the United States. The fact that
perquisites which go with a job on the
canal amount to about $50 a month is
lost sight Of in the general demand for
more money The refusal Of Congress
to increase the wages Of the men in
accordance witH their demands usually
means that the men IN charge Of the
/ appropriation bill which Ina'.ss work on
the canal possible are L1srked for de-
feat by organized labor.
Two Sides Seen.
There are two sides to this question
/ or wages on the Isthmus OF Panama
Il is an undeniable fact that the aver
age workman would prefeT 20 work in
the United States. The vet season is
/ disagreeable TO everyone, and especially
so to the men who have TO work without
protection Hanging ones clothes along
side the kitchen stove to have some
thing dry to wear on the morrow is a
custom which is not calculated 10 make
expatriates OF our American wOrkmen-
Instead he is quite likely 10 start tc
work IN the morning cursing "Sphigitty
I Land"
Let's see what the Government does
10 compensate the American workman
for the Inconvenience to which he Is
subjected, and IN delving into the sub
iect take a glance al some Of the cause:
Of the present discomfort.
When President Roosevelt sIOsheC
around in the mud Of the Panama Cana
little more than two years ago AM
called his experience bully he sowe'
, the seed of discomfort with such gen
erous hand that the officials in charg
Of the work viii be reaping the harves

job. u--,-
, President Roosevelts enthusiasm owe
the manner IN which the dirt was fiyin
caused him 70 make a speech to tn
D yvorlnen He singled out the steaT

70 He told them that success or failuI
3 depended more upon them than upo
u any other class of employees He tol
a them they were entitled to the highe,
e possible pay. Everything said by Pres
e dent Roosevelt regarding the value
\ the services rendered by the steal
q shovel men is as true today as Il We
k two years ago. They are doing a r
markable work with an enthusias
which cannot be reckOned entirely
dollars and cents.
It Is a fact, nevertheless, that at Il
: time Of Mr. Roosevelts remarks Il
steam shovel men were receiving wag'
n far In excess Of those they had earn'
