UNCLE SAM IS A POOR EMPLOYER
Scores of Men in Washington Receive as
Low Wages as sI.25 Per Day.

Hearings on the Nolan bill to establish
minimum wage of 81 for government
employees in the District of Columbia dis
closed the fact that scores of men are
working as street cleaners in Washington
for Sl.25 day. and that thousands of
government workers. including veteran
clerical employees, receive less than suf-
ficient to keep the wolf from the door.
Congressman Nolan's disclosures WIS
one of the developments that aroused
government employees as they had never
been aroused before. The other was the
attempt, thru the Borland bill. to in.
crease the hours of government clerks
from seven to eight day.
Congressman Nolan is a lifelong un-
ionist. and representative of the Union
Labor party in San Francisco His bill
had the backing of the American Fedora
tion OF Labor, and Arthur E. Holder. rep
resentative of the Federation on the leg
istive committee was largely responsible
for the success of the hearings. And it
was the same influence-that of the
American Federation of Labor-that de-
feated the attempt to take n backward
step and add TO the hours Of government
clerks
Government employees in Washington.
from the street cleaners at SIPS dav
to the scientist at 5000 wear. suddenly
awo6e to realization of two things.
The first was the helplessness oi any BIG
group OF employees to prevent eNploita-
tion and injustice and neglect of their
interests. unless they are organized. and
regardless of whether their employer is
private corporation or the United States
government. The second was the power
and good will of the organized workers
of America.
Out of this realization came the organ.
ization OF Federal Labor Union of
Civil Service Employees. To-day this un-
ion has more than 5000 members among
the government clerks in Washington
When the unions books were opened the
government employees flocked to A F. of
l.. headquarters by the hundreds
Today there is more independence and
a better spirit among government en-
ployes in Washington than ever before.
They no longer feel themselves the help
less wards of q more or less benevolent
government And for the first time
there is some force other than political
pull to which they can sppeal-their own
power as an organization.

YOU CAN'T FIND ANY DANDRUFF, AND HAIR

Save your hair! Make 1t thick, wavy, glossy and beauti-

Save your hair! Make it thick, wavy, glossy and beautiful at
 once

Try as you will after an application of Danderine. you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most. will be after few weeks use, when you see new hair. fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately dou- bles the beauty of your hair. No diff ference how dull. faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is i'm mediate and amazing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy. and have an appearance of abundance; an incom- parable lustre, softness and luxuri- ance, the beauty and simmer of true hair health.
 Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment A 25-cent bot tie will double the beauty of your hair.

Neutral Shipping Involved.
 One high official expressed the view that the unprecedented situation in- wolves questions which can be con- sidered only in an extra-legal light The sinking of the Dutch steamer Bloom ersdijk, flying a neutral flag and ply ing between two neutral countries, is understood to be one of the considera- tions that has led officials to view with apprehension the future of sub marine operations off American shorts. What measures Germany may con template against neutral trade out of American ports is a matter of lively speculation. Regarding the Boomer sdijk case specifically, however, the state department is understood to feel that this government has not cause for complaint.
 Should such raids continue, the re- sultant restraints on American inter- ests may become a serious considera- ton.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-Wlth all lights eXtinguished, the steamship Adriatic, of the White Star line, car rying S53 passengers and 1S,00O tons of war munitions, was believed tonight to be speeding south from this port, well within the three mile zone of safety. Her announced destination was Liverpool and her course to that city would lead east from Sandy Hook. Apparently she followed the wake of the freight laden Pannonia and Mime haha. The Danish vessel Hellig Olav, more venturesome than the British steamer, took the easterly course after clearing the bar. They were the first vessels to leave New York for European ports since the submarine raid of Sunday.
 The Adriatic left her dock this after noon, but after reaching Sandy hook dropped anchor outside the bar. As night fell, no lights dashed aboard the big liner. It was believed, however, that she headed south soon after 2 o'clock. No British or French cruisers which might act as conveys were sighted, although it was believed they might pick up the liner after she was forced to leave the three mile limit. It was though the almost simultaneous departure of the Adriatic and the two British freighters might be significant.
 Four Americans Aboard.
 There were four Americans among the passengers in the Adriatic's first cabin. Two other American citizens, Filipinos, also were aboard. TheEe were no cheered farewells at the ne,r as the steamer cast off. and most Of those aboard wore serious looks. XII the life boats of the upper tier were uncovered and ready for instant use.
 The Hellig Olav carried about one hundred passengers in her first and second cabins and 250 in the third cabin. One of tho passengers was l.. C. Helveg-Larsen, former governor of the Danish West Indies.
 Captain L. Hoist said just before sailing that he had had no orders to change his course during this trip. The steamer has a large cargo of grain.

it refers to the antitrust act. It said that this law stood in need of defini- tion so that men spoke of them as shackles and the administration seems to wish to create the impression that it has unshackled business.
 "A most extraordinary claimi They say that they have supplied the need ed definition. They have done noth- ing of the sort. They have added a vague phrase to the law, the phrase unfair competition The content of this does not define it. No phrase more indefinite was ever put into a statute
 A Wordy Statute
 Usually words are used in the stat ute with some reference to their mean ing in the law. But the phrase "un- fair competition' is evidently not used in it's ordinary legal sense. That re fers to the palming off of one mans goods as those of another through mis leading descriptions. labels, cartons.
 "No Lawyer Knows"
 This phrase as used in the new law was evidently intended to have wider meaning than that. What is its meaning? No lawyer knows. It will have to be worked out through litiga- tion and by the decision of courts for the federal trade commission cannot settle he legal meaning of the statute which confers its authority.
 Yet the administration complacent- ly speaks of aiding business by defin- ing the evils in the antitrust act.
 Not only does the federal trade commission act not define what it means by unfair competition, but it leaves the antitrust act in full effect as before"

Hot Water for
 Sick Headaches
Tells why everyone should drink hot water with phosphate
 in it before breakfast.

Headache of any kind is caused by auto-intoxication- means self poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons called toxins, sucked into the blood, through the lymph duets, excite the heart which pumps the blood so fast that it congests in the smaller arter- ies and veins of the head producing violent, throbbng pain and distress, called headache You become ner- vous. Respondent, sick. feverish and miserable. your meals sour and almost nauseate you. Then you resort to acetanilide. aspirin or the brOmides which temporarily relieve but do not rid the blood of these irritating toxins
 A glass of hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it. drank before breakfast for awhile. will not only wash these poisons from your system and cure you of head ache but will cleanse. purify and freshen the entire alimentary canal.
 Ask your pharmacist for quarter pound of limestone phosphate. It is in expensive, harmless as sugar. and al most tasteless, except for a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant
 If you aren't feeling your best. if tongue is coated or you wake up with bad taste. foul breath or have colds. indigestion. biliousness, constipation or sour, acid stomach, begin the phOs- phated hot water cure to rid your system of toxins and poisons.
 Results are quick and it is claimed that those who continue to flush out the stomach. liver and bowels every morning never have any headache or know a miserable moment

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-lnves- tigaticn of Germany's submarine operations off Nantucket apparent ly has eased the minds of officials here, but it was said authoritative ly tonight that should the situa- tion develop prolonged paralysis of American trade in the Atlantic or any similar injury to vital American interests abroad an is- sue might be raised transcending the specific questions of interna- tional law discussed in connection with the U-boat raid.

 Such consideration as the disloca tion of shipping along the Atlantic seaboard, the great increase in marine insurance rates and the possibility O serious freight congestion ana railroad have been foremost in thu minds of officials, it was indicated and will determine largely the govern men't policy if an extensive submarin' campaign is attempted on this side o the Atlantic.

 LOUISVILLE, Ky, Oct. 2.-Charles E. Hughes went through the moun- tains of Kentucky, new field for presidential nominees, outlining his views on the maintenance of Ameri- can rights and ended his days tour of the state with a meeting here to- night in v-~ich he declared that the new free = advocated by Presi- dent WilsoL UT years ago had been transmitted ip enc respect to ''the new slavery"
 G. o. p. Mountaineers
 MT. Hughes spoke in six towns to- day to audiences that had come, for the most part, for miles to hear him. They came down from the mountains, men and women, on foot, on horse back and on mule back. Some of the mounts had saddles, some had none, and many of the women that came to hear him came wearing their faded sunbonnets and smoked their clay pipes as he talked. At Pikeville, first
 
 neyed since sunup A special train from Marrowlione, crowded to capa- city, also came.
 The Simple Life
 They sat on their horses and mules and in their farm wagons to listen. Some brought their families along and there were several hundred children, including babies in their mothers arms, in each of these camps.
 About "New Slavery
 In his speech in Phoenix Hill Hall here tonight, MT. Hughes devoted much of his attention to the protective tariff and to what he termed the "new slavery"
 ''It has meant freedom to depart from the principles of international law to conduct personal diplomatic campaign of personal vindictiveness. It has meant freedom to wage war on a d:sliked ruler and to leave our citi- zens and their property to anarchy and ruin. It has meant freedom to de- part from our time-honored policy of protecting American citizens who take American enterprise abroad and to substitute a new policy which treats them as adventurers whose flag is no longer a symbol of protection of their just rights
 Attacks Adamson Bill
 Tt means freedom to subvert the principles of government by yielding authority to the demands of force. In this vast phase, instead of the new freedom we have the new slavery. What are the characteristics of this new slavery? 1t is the use of the forms of free institutions to tyrannize over the public to impose demands without reference to their justice.
 Is This True?
 "The new slavery is government by holdup. It is the one of forced govern ment or the rule of politics assuming terror as an excuse for submission The executive is chosen to defend the constitutional government. Instead he surrenders it. Where shall this stop?
 These innovations are serious blows to American business. But it is said that the government had lib- erated business and strangely enough

TO DEVELOP GRAND
ISLE COUNTRY.

For the first time I'M its history
the remarkably rich country south
of New Orleans, along the lower
coast and over toward Grand Isle
will feel the touch of concerted
and concentrated development at
the hands of syndicate of well
known New Orleans capitalists who
having acquired the Grand Isle
Railroad reaching from New Or
leans into that district, are pre-
pared to spend adequate sums to
develop the big commercial pos
sibilities which heretofore have had
no attention of this character. The
members of the syndicate are Hugh
McCloskey, President of the Amer
lean Cities Co. and Director of the
Hibernia Bank; Bernard McClos-
key, Attorney Frank b. Hayne, Di-
rector of the Hibernia Bank, mer-
chant and capitalist; c. E. .Allgeyer,

merchants and men Of means; Wal

Benoist and Hugh Vincent Har-
rison d Emerson is General Man
ager of the properties which, un-
der his administration, have al
ready begun to show an increase
in earnings.
The purpose of the syndicate is
to devote its present attention to
the purely commercial and indus
trial side of developing traffic for
the railroad and extending the lat
ter by rail and by boat into the
hitherto neglected field. This is
the great orange or citrous fruit
belt of La, and is known as the
richest land in the United States,
for vegetables and
fruit, while the development of the
oyster, shrimp, crab. fish and ter
rapin industries will be given a big
impetus by reason of quick hand
ling and immediate deliveries to
the New Orleans market and the
rapid transit thence to the north
ern markets.
The promotion of Grand Isle,
with its nine mile beach, as sum-
mer and winter resort, while not
q matter of immediate intention, is
included in the scheme Of future
