FEAR MINIMUM WAGE LAW |
Illinois Laundrymen Oppose
Vice Commissions Plan.

Chicago, March 1.-THE State Senate
vice commission, according to pro
cramme mapped out to-day. viii not visit
moro Illinois cities until after its Eastern
trip in the interests of minimum wage
law for women.
At meeting OF the Laundrymen's AS
sociation OF Illinois to-day the legislative
committee reported that the Senate COM
mission had gone beyond its original mis-
sion, and that the minimum wage ques-
tion was an economic problem and should
be treated as such. The report favored
an industrial commission to be appointed
by the Governor to gather data with ref
erencc to wages and conditions under
which women work.
According 10 the report of the laundry
mems committee, anything like the va
rious amounts mentioned as a minimum
wage before the vice commission would
be disastrous to the laundry industry.

ORVILLE WRIGHT HAPPY
Airship Inventor Rejoices Over
Legal Victory Abroad.

Orville Wright returned TO this country
yesterday from Bremen on the North
German Lloyd liner George Washington,
accompanied By his sister, Miss Kathryn
Wright. He was in a happy mood.
The man who made possible the flight
OF a Observation-Disclosures machine and whose
patents were infringed upon abroad went
TO Europe several months ago to light
for his rights in Germany and France
The foreign courts upheld his contention
Of infringement in all suits.
II ain giving my time now TO the hydro

been at it for some time and intend to
keep on until am able 70 produce a ny
droplaue that will be able TO travel over
rough water My idea is 10 devise a ma
chine that will skim the waves or ride
them like n gull and travel twice as fast
as the fastest steamship.
Mr.. Wright said aviation is progressing
more rapidly I'm Europe than at home
because the foreigners are fearless and
progressive. There is a sort OF unrea-
sonable fear OF aviation in this country
which is unwarranted. he said. Il think
this intimidation has been caused by the
American newspapers.
THE press OF America is willing to give
plenty Of space 10 accidents in the air
and casualties Little is ever printed
about actual achievement if there is no
sensation in it, \ great endurance flight

ssry acrobatics and feats Of so-called dar-
ing in the air.
Mr. Wright and his sister said they
would leave town for Dayton az soon as
they could check their baggage.

BETTER PAY ASKED
FOR white Wings"
William Nick. Clayton, at Meeting,
Declares Present Wages Are
Much Too Small.
WANTS SEATS FOR MOToRMEN

That the white wings" are paid star
vation wages was the charge made
against the District Street Cleaning De-
partment by William Nick. Clayton in
motion presented at the meeting OF
the BrightwOod Park Citizens Associa-
ton. in Van Horns Hall, at Georgia
Avenue and Longfellow Street. last night.
The motion called on the association to
bring the matter to the attention of the
Federation of Citizens Associations.
Mr.. Clayton said there are thirty-two
white wings employed in cleaning alleys
at $50 a day. According to the last
report he said. these men worked ~
days, giving them an average daily earn
ing for the year of $l.0J ThiTty-four
men are employed on the streets of the
suburbs. Their pay is $50 day. Last
year they worked - days. giving them
an average daily earning for the yeac
Of 81 cents. White wings in the down.
town district. according to Mr.. Clayton,
averaged last year $l13 day.
"Ninety-seven cents a day is not a
living wage" Mr.. Clayton said. How
is one OF these men going to live in the
sanitary house that the alley workers
propose, keep body and soul together and
send his children to schOol-if he has
children-on 81 cents a day? Clerks in
the District employ are paid from $1,000
to s., 400 a year, which is right; while
clerks in commercial houses. who do the
same work, are paid from $500 to $1,000
year"
Mr.. Clayton explained that the Dis
tricts street laborers must report twice
every day, whether there is work for
them or not. This makes it impossible
for them to get other employment on
their idle days.
The motion to refer the matter to the
Federation carried.
Mr.. Clayton then asked the association
to enter into negotiations with the two
Washington traction companies with a
view to having them adopt seats for mo-
tcrmen. He said that the traction COM
panies of St Louis Chicago, Philadel-
phia, and Detroit had installed seats for
the motormen. The association decided
to take up the matter.
A resolution commencing the Commits
sioners for their policy Of giving the citi-
zens of Washington every opportunity 20
be heard upon things affecting their in
terests, introduced by G. F. Williams,
was passed.
George F. Williams, William Nick
Clayton. and w. F. Wall-Smith were
appointed a committee on the nomination
of new officers. James d. Mcintyre, the
retiring president presided last night
Several proposed improvements for
Brightwood Park were considered.
