the house, Mr.. Mason stood guard. He
finally made a point of order againt the
paragraph in the bill carrying an
appropriation for the street cleaning
department. Representative Gardner,
in charge of the bill, demonstrated to

They have made similar efforts in the
past and have been defeated by their
employers on the floors of the house.
Now. however, the secretaries have a
good working organization and they
propose to make their fight with the
assistance of members of the house
who look with favor on their program.
Under the existing law each member
OF the house is allowed 1925 a month
for the employment of a secretary. A

them get together, select a secretary
who shall do the work of the entire
group and pay him 1925 When five
members make such a combination it
