FRENCH MARKET BEST,
Is GRONNA'S BELIEF

Declaring that food is passing
through too many hands and hence
high prices are exacted OF the con-
sumner, Senator Gronna of North Da-
kota, advocates adoption of the
French system OF marketing farm
products through licensed auctIoneers
or commission men whose charges
are fixed by the Government.
Senator Gronna thinks that the dis
tribution system must be simplified,
and favors publicly owned and oper-
ated city markets.
Too many men are trying to make
a living out OF the distribution of
food. and they are doing business on a
very small scale" said Senator
GronnA
I'VE know the remedy for the evils
of the present system. II is only a
question of applying the remedy. II
you suggest government-owned and
operated city markets Congressman
will tell you that is socialism, and
they wonder how far such a thing
will go once II Is started"
He said that many features OF the
Halles Centrales, or great city mar
kets OF Paris. could be adopted by
Washington to advantage. Dealers
there must keep q record OF every
sale. the address of each purchaser
and the price.

EXTRA WAR CLERKS
DENIED PAY RAISE
GIVEN COLLEAGUES

Temporary clerks and other en-
ployes engaged by the War Depart
ment to meet the war emergency are
not entitled to any increased compen-
sation under the provisions OF law
for a ave and ten per cent Increase,
under a ruling by Comptroller Of the
Treasury Warwick
The Comptroller also ruled that
night proof readers in the Govern
ment Printing office are not entitled
to the Increase. Per diem laborers
and the night force will receive the
higher wages.
Proofreaders at the Government
Printing ONCE get q basic pay OF 20
cents an hour. It is proyided oy law
however, that men employed on the
night shift shall get 20 per cent ad-
ditIonal. The Comptroller held that
this additional pay made the daily
rate for eight hours 1916 q day, or Q
greater rate than 81 500 q year. The
law giving the 20 per cent increase
fixes night hours from .. m. to 8 -
n. The night proofreaders work from
4:30 D. m. to 1890 O. m. The Comp
troller said that they could no. be paid
at the day rate for the arst half hour
and get an increase on that because
II was below the limit.
The night laborers are paid Al tne
rate OF 80 cents per hour. or $40
day. coming in the 10 per cent limit
With respect to additional employees
Of the War Department. Comptroller
Warwick held that the provision Of
law providing the increase for War
Department workers was expressly
applied to those appropriated for in
the act, and. as the new employees
were not appropriated for in that act,
they were clearly not entitled to the
increase.
