trade\ Government employees in the civil
service can do as much for themselves,
and would be glad to make more liberal
provision for their own needs IL they
were paid adequate salaries. The pres
ent scale Of wages in the departments
was fixed nearly sixty years ago. At
that time the lowest salary for a gov
ernment clerk was 30. There has been
no increase whatever in this scale OF
wages, and new classes OF employees have
been created at lower salaries, so that
at the present time the average salary
Of government employees is below S1,OOO
Within the same period the salary of
Representatives and Senators has been
advanced from s., 800 to $3.50 per annum,
and the salaries Of the President and
Cabinet officers and many other Presi-
Dental appointees Increased in the same
proportion. In the meantime the cost
of living in Washington has increased by
leaps and bounds, until to-day It costs
from . to 40 per cent more for living in
Washington than in any other city in
the country. Justice to government
clerks demands that their salaries be
adjusted to the presentS high cost Of
living.
