Mr.. Howard has shown uniform

District subjects in Congress without
prejudice.
Mr.. Howard's general attitude, as
made known to his friends, is that
Congress, in appropriations for the
District as well as for the General
Government. will seek to avoid ap-

WARNS AGAINST
GERMAN PEACE

Speaking before q large audisnes At

W. Darr, OF the "four-minuts men,"
warned that the people OF the United
States must not be nsisled by the
false peace propaganda circulated By
the Germans in the hope of stirring
unrest in this country.
He said there should be no SYM
pathy with the paciists and others
who declare that we should not have
gone into ths war until our country
was actually invaded by the enemy.
The German SPY system in this
country, which IL attempting to burn
our factories. destroy our bridges.
and ruin our crops, Is sufficient cause.
he declared, for our entry into the
war.
He added: "An American who says
We should keep our munitions At
home to protect US in the event or an
invasion is q part OF the German
propaganda to cause dissatisfaction
among our people. Such an American
is not loyal, and Is a traitor to his
country.
1--WE are at war with an enemy that
should not be allowed to rest until
we have destroyed its military power
and made Germany a democracy. We
should stand behind the President in

FEDERAL WORKERS
|. TO APPROVE EQUAL
PAY FOR WOMEN

Resolutions favoring the Nolan
minimum wage law, pensions for all
Government employees, reclassifica-
tion OF the civil service, continuance
and extension OF the 5 and 10 per
cent increases in pay, woman suf-
frage and equal pay for women work
ers were presented today to the first
convention Of delegates of the Fed
eral Employees union, meeting here
to form a national Organization.

mendations by the entire convention
Is expected. In addition the commit

employees and the entire strength Of
the American Federation Of Labor
behind the desired legislation.
The convention marked time through
out the morning session, awaiting the
reports OF committees on constitution

The resolutions committee present
af
the prohibition OF political activity
on the part of Government workers,
and asking for the repeal OF this
legislation. 1t also urged legislation
providing for the establishment by
the Government of institutions of
higher education. that children of
Government workers receiving small
pay might not be denied the advan-
tages received by the children of the
welI-to-do.
Declaring that the war in the last
analysis was a conflict between or
ganized democracy and organized
autocracy and therefore was vital to
the interest, not only of all American
workers, but all the workers OF the
world, organized and unorganized, the
committee presented resolution
pledging loyal support to the Presi-
dent and the Congress OF the United
States in this present national crisis.
Urge Retirement Bill.
Congress is urged to pass a retire.
ment bill at as early a date as ac-
curate statistics can be obtained for
