WANTS FACTS ON
TINKHAM' BILL
Brownlow Calls Meetin g
Which May Gain Support
for Assessing Plan.
OTHER DISTRICT AFFAIRS
Nolan Measure to Fix Minimum Wage
for U. S. Employees Will Be Con-
sidered by Subcommittee.

At the conclusion of a hearing before
the judiciary subcommittee Of the
House on Representative Tinkham's bill
to change methods OF assessing street
improvement benefits, Commissioner
Brownlow arranged a meeting of inter-
ested persons in the District Building for
tomorrow with a view to obtaining furth-
er facts.
After the results Of this meeting shall
have been made known to the Judiciary
subcommittee. further hearings may be
determined upon. The attitude of Com
missioner BrOwnlow yesterday indicated
that the opposition of the Commissioners
to the bill might be considerably modi-
fed as the result of the arguments
made by representatives Of the Board OF
Trade and other organizations.
The Nolan bill, fixing minimum wage
OF g per diem for all government en-
ployes, will be the subject OF a hearing
before a subcommittee of the House
Labor Committee comprising Repre-
sentatives Maher, Van Dyke, Nolan and
DenisOn. The following statement was
given out by the committee yesterday:
THE subcommittee is particularly
anxious that there shall be a full and
impartial hearing on this measure, and
that all persons interested directly or
indirectly, may have an opportunity to
he heard, and an invitation is extended
to the various organizations of Federal
employees to send representatives to the
hearings, as well as to the Individual
government clerks to appear personally
II they so desire
1T is expected that there will be more
than ordinary interest manifested in
these hearings, as the provisions of the
Nolan minimum wage bill affect every
lOw-salaried government emplOye, pro-
viGing. as it does, for a minimum COM
Tcnsat.on of s. a day for all employees
row receiving less than $3.50 per annum,
and also for an annual increase of per
n"ntu!l per annum in the salaries of
tho. receiving more than i$l.OSO per an
1,L ustiI their salaries shall have been
irC. c~s q % per Centum.
'I,'Ir tentative Nolan has been par
f.cT'aIly aggressive in pushing this
lr'azur" - the front, and It is largely
IA" to lis persistence that the sub-cOm-
lit.ac VS. appointed. He Is quite con-
don't th2t with this bill before the COM
- tee on labor there will be an oppor-
t1rity To have it considered on its merits
aid favorable action secured. However,
tECs. who are interested in seeing the
O.. d"rIaid government employee receive
tIc recognition that is due him should
Immediately communicate with the chair
nan OF the committee on labor and urge
favorable action on the Nolan bill"

Saturday night. entailing a loss
of some 500, 900, swith no insur-

The fire department was called
about six o'clock and fought the
flames for several hours before
they were put under control. 1t
was soon seen that the factory,
which was a frame building and
filed with finished and unfinished

the boys then devoted themselves
principally to saving the Grubbs

buildings, finally extinguishing
