THOUGHTFUL
CONSIDERATION

Employees of the Nekoosa Edwards
Paper Company and the Consolidated
Water Power & Paper Company re-
ceived letters today notifying them
that special pay check amounting to
six dollars will be given out to each
man once a month. This plan was
decided upon by the directors of each
company with the view of offsetting
to some extent the present high cost
of food and other necessities of life.
1t is understood by the men that this
extra payment is in the nature of a
"war measure" and will be discontin-
ued upon thirty days notice when the
cost of living returns again to it's nor
NAL level
The first set of checks will be Civ
en- out some time during the first part
of December and will be based on the
November pay roll.
