LABORERS DISCOVER THE
Niger IN THE WOODPILE
And Seek TO Repeal a Law Which
They Urged the Council TO Pass.
1t Cut Their Wages Down instead
of Increasing Them, Otherwise 1t
Never Would Have Passed.

A score or more laborcrs in the
Waterworks Department made pc
culiar request when they called in a
body on Service Director Hornbcrger
yesterday. 1t appears that several
months ago the laborers demanded time
and a half for overtime and double
time for Sunday and holiday work. In
accordance with the request Council
passed an ordinance granting the demand
and it went into effect on January /.
Before the passage of the ordinance
the laborers were allowed practically
full time whether they worked or not.
This was for the reason that they were
liable to be called out at any time of
the day or night or on Sunday TO at
tend to leaks. Lately, Superintendent
Hitler has enforced the ordinance and
has paid the men only for the time they
were actually employed
Then the men came to a realization
that they were worse off than before
their pet ordinance was passed and the
object OF their visit yesterday was to
ask the department to return to the
old scale This the men were told was
impossible as the officials were com
PEELED to act strictly along the lines Of
the ordinance. Superintendent Hitler
and Assistant Dan EversOn told the
men they were sorry for them, but that
until the ordinance was repealed they
would follow its provisions to the letter.
Councilman Mullen accompanied the
men and pleaded their cause, and he
charged they were being punished be-
cause the ordinance had been passed.
Assistant Superintendent Everson de-
MED this and said the department was
cndcavoring to retrench in every pos
siblc way owing to the condition of the
City's finances.

Systematic Saving Plan.

Owing to the growing popular
ity of various kinds of savings
clubs and the success they have
proven elsewhere, the Navajo
Apache Bank and Trust Co. has
Instituted a systematic saving
plan to which it invites attention.
In order to encourage partici-
pants in this plan the bank will
give the first dollar to deposit,
after which the customer will de-
posit one dollar per week for for
ty-nine consecutive weeks, which
payments will be registered in a
neat book made for the purpose,
and at the expiration of the term
the book becomes an interest
bearing $50 Gold Bond, or the
depositor may draw $50 in gold.
The same plan has been work
ed out successfully in other
places under various names, such
as Christmas saving clubs. vaca-
tion savings accounts. and last
year many people participated in
just such schemes to save for
their trip to the P. P. /. exposi-
ton. But whatever name is Civ
en- to the scheme the result is
the same. 1t creates the saving
habit. The bank starts the ac-
count with a gift dollar, then the
deposltor places another dollar to
the credit of his certificate and
in forty-nine' weeks it is done.
You have $50, either to draw in
terest for you at the rate of 5
per cent per annum, for your
trip, for Christmas gifts, or any
other purpose for which you may
care to use it.
1t is not hard to save dollar
or two each week, and $50 or
$100 saved out of ones loose
change or pin money each year
is very handsome amount.
You are invited to investigate
this plan, and the Navajo-Apa-
che Bank and Trust Go. has $100
to give away in starting these
accounts.

UNITED STATES IS
RICHEST COUNTRY
Its Wealth Greater Than That Of
Great Britain and Germany
Combined.

New York, Dec. l3.-The United
States is the richest country i'm the
world today, its wealth being more
than that of Great Britain and Ger
many combined. according to George
f. Roberts. former director of the
United States Mint, speaking at a
luncheon OF the Iowa Society today,
of the status this country will assume
in finance and commerce after the
war.
He warned his hearers. however.
that American capital would have to
be advanced for the development of
foreign countries. If the United States
were to maintain this economic lead
ership.
The problem is to organize our
wealth and use it effectively" he said.
I'VE are having what looks like a
wonderful state of prosperity. Tn
fortunately it is not based on perma-
nent conditions and some features of
it are a menace to the future.
"Our people are .gratified over the
importation of gold. And vet gold
Is only one factor in industry. You
cannot use gold without labor, and
We are not getting labor"
Mr.. Roberts explained that effect
of the food of gold into this coun-
try would be to raise wages and all
the costs of doing business. until the
larger amount of money would be en-
ployed in doing the same volume of
business.
Destruction of life and property in
the warning countries, he said. are
largely compensated by a tremendous
stride forward in industrial organic
ton and efficiency, due to the war.
