High Praise from U. S.

new working conditions can be i'm
posed without agreement between the
union and the firm on the rearrange-
ment. All disputes arising between
workers and the company are settled
4 by a permanent arbitration board.
Lower Paid Men Favored
| Typical of the unusual nature of
the relations between employers and
employees under the agreement is the
distribution which will be made of
the salary increases. Instead of the
old method of giving the, same pro-
portional increase to each employee,
the new agreement provides for the
appointment of "a committe" from the
union which viii work out a plan
through which the lower paid work
ers will receive far greater in
creases than viii the higher paid
ones s-
Because all the. new scales apply to
piece work, it is difficult to determine
in advance what the minimum wage
will be. There is provision, however,
that no woman apprentice shall re-
ceive less than $S a week, while no
man apprentice can be paid less than
$12 weel..
The union is the Amalgamated

Who had so much to say to you
With wasging tail and tender eyes,
And knew so much i never knew

Of all in life that crowns the rest.
Just grew too old and tried to creep

His begging eyes that asked so plain
Toilet him walk with me again.

I'll never love pet that way
They creep so close into your heart
Just dogs. you know, but still part
In time of all you are or dream,

The West Left Honolulu August 26.
after repairing a few Of the many
leaky spots in her hull. She arrived
here August 8. with several sails torn

Honolulu to Balboa, which IS ~"

told, 22,292 miles to make go.
After leaving Honolulu last August,
the West ran into the doldrumS for
81 days after heating up TO SOCOrrO

boat was used t. catch, green turtles.
The first was halpoOned. Then il was
discovered that tile turtles were asleep

Turtle Soup Thrice Daily.
This is where Charley, who won't
be two years old until July s. came in
handy. He had learned to walk-On
shipboard-and lie and his little elder
brother, Ira, kept close watch for
turtles. A char such as a sword fish
erman uses was rugged up in the bow
for Charley and when he saw turtle
he blew the bosun's whistle, while Ira
shouted, Turtle ahoy, pop" Seven
turtles were caught at one time and
Ira almost fell overheard in the eX-
element. All were tired of turtle
soup and turtle steak and trutle hash
except the youngsters, who cried for
more turtles most of the way to New
York.
Couldn't Stand up.
Balboa was reached January l. The
West had to be drydocked at Colon
for repairs and her cargo of mahogany
unloaded There all hands went
ashore and they had been at sea so
long they staggered all over the place.
Charley could not stand up ashore.
The nine Filipinos were fine sailors
until three days before the West ar.
rived at New York. Then they had
their first taste of cold weather. But
Capt Chapman, ct Colon, had laid in
a supply of gin. Even with that under
their belts they could keep only 10
minute watches for two days. By the
third morning the gin had produced
such wonderful effect that they kept
no watches. g
