Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-12-07
That Low Department Average.

It is pointed out that according to
census figures of 1907 the average pay
of the government employees is $94S per
annum. These figures, though ten
years old, are regarded as accurate to-
day. for there has been no change in
the pay scale in the last decade-indeed,
no material change in the last half cen
fury. In order to reach an average Of
S94s IN an organization of many thou
sands there must be a large number get
ting less than that amount a year. Con-
sidering the cost of living nowadays
this is a mighty poor pay rate for so
large concern as the United States
government. Many of those who get be-
low the average are heads of families.
They are suffering today from made
quate incomes to meet the barest ne
cessities of life. With only a single
wage Garner household headed by a
government employee Of even the aver
age pay-not to mention those thou
sands who are below the averages in
these times desperately pinched. The
10 per cent increase granted the lower
scale workers of the departments for
the current fiscal year has helped some.
But it is not enough. 1t should, in jus
tice, be doubled. The only question as
to this bonus-which should be a per
manent pay increase. and not a tenn
porary concession-should today be
whether it is appreciably advanced to
the point where it will meet the real
needs of the governments people, not
whether last years bonus should be
granted again.

Poor Phone Service.

In considering the plea Of the Chesa-
peake and Potomac Telephone Com
pany for rate increases the Public Utili-
ties Commission should and doubtless
will take into account the fact that the
service rendered at present is poorer
than it has been for a long time. An
noyances of delays, mistakes and con-
fusion Of calls are so common as to be
now accepted as part Of days work
in telephone use. While the patrons of
the phone company are patient with
these conditions in the main, recogniz-
ing that they are in large part due to
the sudden increase of business caused
by the war and the shortage of trained
workers at the switchboards, there will
be no patience with the plea that much
larger fees should be exacted for de-
cidedly inferior returns. If the service
were up to mark there would be more
show Of justification for higher rates in
the increased cost of everything that
enters into all lines Of business. But
with a product deprecated in actual
value in consequence of delays and err
rors the demand for higher rates strikes
the public as an imposition.

The law was not impaired, and will con-

In Ohio the third vote within three

desire to share the Presidents informa-
ton from that source.
Necessarily, the President would COM
municate in confidence, if at all. It
would not be compatible with the pub
lie interests to make such information
the subject Of public debate; and even
the debates held in executive sessions
of the Senate find a fairly accurate pub
licity.
This mission, if necessity existed for
it, was timely. The situation in Russia
is acute, that in Italy grave, and the re-
cent change Of cabinet in France fixes
closer attention on the situation there.
The latest news as to all three coun-
tries collected by an experienced col
lector, with credentials opening all doors
to him, was, therefore, desirable on every
account; and that Col. House, with the
aid of his associates, has done his best
may be assumed from his previous per-
formances in somewhat the same line.

Stricken Halifax.

Growing in magnitude with successive
reports, the disaster at Halifax yester-
day is one Of the most appalling horrors
that has ever occurred on this CONT
nent. Exceeded only perhaps by the
volcanic explosion on the Island of
Martinique fifteen years ago, when
$4,000 people lost their lives, this catas-
trophe at Halifax, coming in time of
war, and affecting, as it does, people of
our own race and close to US in ties Of
blood and kinship, stirs the American
nation with quick and profound SYM
pathy. Slowly the facts are coming to
light. Apparently two ships came to-
gether in the harbor owing to mis-
understanding of signals, and one of
them, containing large quantity of
trinitrotoluol, the most powerful ex-
plosive used in war, caught fire and in
3 few minutes exploded with a crash
that was heard over 100 miles away
The distressing details are told in the
dispatches. No estimate can be made
OF the damage, The loss of life mounts
into the thousands, with fresh reports
adding to the toll. But the first thought
Il for the survivors, those who are suf-
fsring from exposure to the bitter cold,
without shelter or clothing and in some
degree without food. Supplies are
rushing toward Halifax from other
parts Of Canada and from this country.
There will be an abundant response to
the csn for help. Halifax has been one
Of the busiest ports in the world since
the war began and has grown in impor-
lance and activity steadily. Made
staus IN fash scene of sickening
EAesolation, it is the object of the warm
