iTOURGE INCREASE
FOR OIL WORKERS
Federal MediatOrS Still
Hopeful Of Aiding
Bayonne Men

John A. Mofitt and James A. Smyth'
agents for the Department o. Labor
whose intervention ended the riotous
strike Of employees i'm the Bayonne re-
fnery Of the Standard OIL Company
will urge an Increase in wages to men
earning only 1920 a day, when they
confer with the officials Of the company
this week
Another matter which will be gone
into by the mediators will he the work
ing conditions in the oil plant. The
Federal agents have been assembling
data on the various occupations m the
plant which are said to be injurious 20
health. The date for the meeting mas
not been fixed.
The company yesterday bought adj
vertisng space in the morning papers
70 announce that the strike had been
settled without any promise OF m
creased wage. Nevertheless, the gov
eminent mediators say they reserved
the right TO reopen the matter OF
wages. and. in fact. promised a com
mittee Of tho workers they would use
their good Offices to obtain a higher
wage for tho $500 a day men.
Think Pay insufficient
Messrs. Moftt and Smyth. while not
committing themselves officially, are OF
the opinion that workers cannot live
and support their families on STU
DAY. The S2.20-a-day men arc out OF
employment FIVE months out OF the
wear. They are perpetually in DEBT.
Some Bayonne merchants have Two
scales of prices, one for those VINO pay
cash and another considerably higher
rate-for customers who seek credit.
"The strikers. others than the SEQ
a-day men, have had no assurance that
they will get any raise in pay" SAID
Mr.. Moffitt. "And no promises were
made to the poorer paid employees. /
only told their committee That Mr..
Smyth and ! would use our good oihces
with the company officials IN an efor'
TO obtain raise for them.

pointed auditor ad interim has been
constantly on the job since Saturday
going over the books with Attorney
N. B. Arnold of Duluth who at the
instigation of four International
Falls taxpayers claims to have un-
covered evidence indicating that
there has been a wastage of about
100000 in county funds. .........,.-
Detectives are also at work on the
investigation, it is reported.
There is a general feeling at In
ternational Falls that the charges
should be probed to the bottom, re-
gardless of whom it affects.
Attorney M. j. Brown of Bemidji,
who has been named commissioner
in charge OF. the hearings, stated to-
day that he has not been advised
when the hearings will be held. A
report from International Falls states
that hearings will begin next Mon
