APPEAL TO CONGRESS
FOR CELEBRATION HERE
Joint Committee of Trade
Bodies Will Take No Chance
Through Delay.

The joint committee of the Chamber of
Commerce and Board OF Trade on the
celebration OF the completion OF the
Panama canal at its meeting yesterday
afternoon In the Chamber Of Commerce
decided that it would request a hearing
before the appropriations committees of
Congress as soon as the plan outlined by
the joint committee had received the APP
prevail of the Board of Trade. Already
the Chamber of Commerce and the board
Of directors Of the Board OF Trade have
given their approval to this plan, and to-
night the Board of Trade will give its
approval also, 1t is expected.
At the meeting yesterday were Henry
B. F. Mcfarland. chairman; James F.
Oyster and E. C. Graham. The COM
mittee is determined not to let the grass
grow under its feet and will begin its
work before Congress this week.
Argument Of Committee.
The argument which the committee will
lay before the congressional committees
is contaiped in its report to the Chamber
of Commerce and the Board of Trade.
1t sets forth that:
THE completion of the Panama canal
should be celebrated at the capital OF
the government which is constructing
that canal, the greatest engineering work
In history. The national government
should not go elsewhere for such a cele-
bration. The button that will open the
canal to the American fleet and ships
of the world should be pressed by the
President at the Presidents house or the
Capitol
THE celebration should be interna-
tional in character and all the nations
should be invited by Congress to par
ticipate. Washington is the official home
of the ambassadors and ministers of all
these nations. and, as the National Cap
ital, the place which these nations would
regard as the most appropriate for this
celebration

REGULATION Of LEAVE
NOT HARD OHM CLERKS
Chief Clerk Weed of Post Of
flee Department Defends
the Rules.

Clerks in the Post Office Department
said Chief Clerk Weed today, have little
to complain of in the rules of the de-
partment regulating leave.
IF any have complained, he said. 1T
is because they have made themselves
amenable to the law, and the percentage
who have done that is almost infini-
tesimal."
With Postmaster General Hitchcock.
Mr.. Weed approves Of the efficiency Of
the clerical force and other employees Of
the Post Office Department. They are
the most loyal set I ever saw in their
devotion to duty. They are always ready
at its call and never slow In doing what
has to be done.
Rules Were Modified.
For this reason the Postmaster Cen
eral has taken particular pains to relieve
them from the rigor Of some of the rules
that were put in force before he came to
the department, notably the one which
denied a clerk any leave, for sickness or
otherwise, beyond thirty days in the year.
III his record for two years showed he had
exhausted his annual leave and ten days
of his sick leave There are a few, a
very few cases, he said, where clerks,
after having used their full thirty days
of annual leave, deliberately stay away
from the department fractions OF a day
during the holiday season. hoping to get
away with it without taxation Of any
kind. II they were absent from sickness,
he said, the time would, Of course, be
charged to sick leave. But investigation
has shown that sickness was not the
cause of such absence.
Cause Of Stringent Order.
To meet those cases, because the law
itself forbids absence beyond thirty days.
except in case of sickness. the rule was
adopted that the clerk who stayed away
after exhausting his thirty days Of annual
leave must stay away for the entire day
and have the absence charged, not
against his leave the next year, but
against his pay. This was done, it was
explained, because of the impractical bility
of rating or estimating the amount Of
pay to be deducted for hours or minutes
of absence without pay, and also as a
corrective measure. Worthy clerks-and
the department is filled with them, Mr.
Weed said-have no cause for complaint
and SO far as he knows none of them
has complained because the rules were
made to enforce the law.

Seriously, an interruption in a sad

whole company and mar the rest OF
the play. However, the theater man
agement and company are willing 70
play one afternoon to the accompani-
rnent of any number of babyistic
howIs, rather than deprive their moth
ers from ever seeing the show.
The extra matinee will make con-
siderable additional expense, as the
theater people, including the door
keepers, ushers and stage hands VIII
have to be paid for their extra time
However, with the exception of this
one afternoon, the doorkeepers will be
instructed to be strict and not admit
children under seven, whether accom-
panied by older person with paid
ticket or not. The admission to the
Monday matinees will be the same as
for the Wednesday and Saturday matt
nee, 10 and 20 cents.

start New Plan at Majestic Monday
Afternoon, November 6.

A pIan untried by any theater in the
state if not in the United States, FIJI
be inaugurated at the Majestic theater
a week from Monday afternoon when
a matinee especially for mothers with
small babies will be given. lnfants
under five years old, accompanied by
mothers or older people with raid
ticket will be admitted free AT otAer
times all under seven will be barred
The idea is to give mother Of little
babies a chance to see the show, who
would otherwise have to remain at
home on account of their small sons
and daughters-Or nephews and
nieces.
When the North Brothers opened at
r1e Majestic two years ago three years
was the age limit for babies That Is
ba bies over three years were admitted.
However. the majority of the plays at
the theater are after the quiet order
and the cries of infants caused 50
much trouble that the ante was raised
to five years a short time ago.
This has caused SO much dissatis-
faction that the new plan was decided
uDon. So if the idea works out good,
beginnins Monday afternoon, NcEein-

trading today and there was no hint
of fhe excitement produced yesterday
by the wild trading in q. s. steel
stocks The course Of the market
yesterday afternoon had indicated that
heavy selling of steel stocks was over
and the improvement was helped by
the statement of Chairman Gary
relative to the government dlssolu-
ton suit. 1t was apparent at the
opening Of the stock market that
there was a considerable demand for
steel stocks.
The first transaction in the common
stock was a block of $4,000 shares at
81 rs to So IA. The stock was
quickly raised to So rs, a gain of 81
stock rose L Both issues lost much
of their gain within half an hour, but
held steady without further losses
The stock market in general showed
