xHx TACOMA TIMES.

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 10.-In
announcing his purpose to divide
half the profits of the Ford Motor
company with his 10000 or more
employees, the plan to go into ef-
feet with the first 1914 payday
on January IL, Henry Ford said
In his statement:
1T will be the greatest revolu-
ton in the matter of rewards for
workers ever known in the indus
trial world.
'At one stroke, the new plan
will reduce the hours of labor
from nine to eight and add in
every mans pay a share of the
profits of the house. The small
est amount to be received by any
man 90 years old and upwards
will be IS per day. The minimum
wage is now $2.34 per day of nine
hours.
"All but 10 per cent of the en-
ployes will at once share in the
profits. Only 10 per cent of the
men now employed are under 90,
and even every one of those under
20 will have chance of showing
himself entitled to IS per day.
Instead of waiting until the
end of the year to make a dis
tribution of profits among their
employees in one lump bonus sum,
Mr.. Ford and Mr.. Couzens (secre-
tary-treasurer) have estimated
the years prospective business
and have decided on what they
feel will be a safe amount to re-
ward the workers, which will be
spread over the whole year and
paid on the regular semi-monthly
paydays.
1.-The factory is now working
two shifts of nine hours each.
This will be changed to three
shifts of eight hours each. The
number employed now is about
$4,000 and this will be increased
by 1000 or 5000. The men
who now earn $2.34 per day of

POLITICAL
GOSSIP

Seth Greer, the real estate man,
Is flirting with destiny and con-
sidering the possibilities of his
getting to be commissioner of
light and water. He has not defi-
nitely decided to make the race
for commissioner, but is thinking
hard and has almost reached the
stage where he Is 'in the hands of
his friends"
@. j. Langford insists he is a
real live mayoralty aspirant and
fully intends to. make the race this
spring. Langford's first advent
In politics was last year when he
went to the legislature as a pro-
gressive.
Controller Johnny Meads has
not been before the council to
make a speech for some weeks and
his friends are wondering whether
1t is all off with his aspirations
to climb into the council or be-
come mayor. II has been an un-
failing sign heretofore that when
Johnny got to doing the oratorical
before the crowd in the council
chamber 1t meant he would be a
candidate In the next campaign. A
few weeks ago he became an al
most daily orator before the
council and 1t was taken as a sig
nal that there was going to be
something doing political with the
controller.
In fact, It came from very
close source that Johnny would
resign and run for either commits
sioner of finance or mayor, and
his brother-in-law, ]. II. Gonyea,
now bookkeeper in his office,
was to be slid up into the place of
controller.
But Meads has been so quiet
lately his adherents fear 1t is all
off.
The element that made the
high moral campaign for Sey-
mour because he was mice man"
has been hunting for some time
for a candidate to take his place.
They have NOT been Just satisfied

CRUISER HAWKE SUNK BY GERMANS-MOST
OF CREW DROWN-ENGLISH UNEASY
London, Oct.

LOnuOnJ OCGs lo.-Ia6 bTIClSl
cruiser Hawke has been sunk by a
German submarine while on patrol
duty in the North Sea. Of her crew
of 544 only about so were saved.
The Hawke, Theseus and Gibral-
tar, sister cruisers, were engaged on
the patrol when the attack was
made. The first torpedo was launch
ed against the Theseus, but it is re-
ported that it missed it's mark.
The submarine Immediately dived
and the cruisers with their guns
manned stood by watching for her to
rise. It is not yet known whether the
crew of the Hawke saw the destroyer
come to the surface, but she must
have been in close because her tor
pedO simply shattered the doomed
cruiser.
Because of the Admiralty orders
that commanders of waTships in
cases Of submarine attacks must con-
slider that their first duty is to their
own ship, no attempt was made by
the other cruisers to go to the rescue
Of the crew of the Hawke.
According to information at pres
ent obtainable none of the high COM
missiened officers Of the Hawke were
saved. The official bureau states that
Capt. Hugh Williams, her COM
mander, is among the missing and
presumably lost.
The three officers previously re-
ported as having been saved now ap-
pear to be the chief gunner, an as
sistant gunner and the boatsWain Of
the cruiser.
Most of the crew of the Hawke had |
stripped when the crash came in an |
effort to swim until help arrived. All !
of the movable fixtures, wardrOom
tables and the like, were thrown
overheard to furnish something to
cling to while swimming.
