WAGE INCREASE
NOW in EFFECT
Raise in General Labor Com
pensations Starts With
Today's Work

The increase of ten per cent. in the
general labor wage scale at the local
plant of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany went into effect this morning.
Increase of wages for other employees
will be made from time to time as
the department heads and officials
see fit.
No adjustments in wages aside
from the general labor have yet been
made. These cases will be brought
up before officials at the general Of
flee individually.
This increase is much different
than the other ones. Increases in
wages prior to this one were on the
principal of a blanket increase. Very
few workmen gained this impression
when the increase was announced
Saturday, as each department head
explained the matter thoroughly
and the usual trouble of telling each
man why his wages were not increas-
ed as much as another workman has
been averted.
Workmen are elated over the in
crease, which was the fourth in
about eighteen months since the
Bethlehem Steel Company purchas-
ed the local plant. The direct raise
included about 500 workmen.
The increase of the apprentices
pay, met with approval in every di-
rection. The boys learning trades
We're given encourageme through
the increase, officials believe.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
THE LAW is READY

TO the Editor of the Telegraph:
Sir-Permit me to make an OBJ
servation this bright morning.
In years gone by when the Har-
risburg Patriot had anything on its
mind and things did not go its way
1t was pretty alert to call upon the
statutory law when it failed to arouse
public opinion. (Vide Common
wealth VS.. BATHS, etc.)
The burlesque performances seem
to have been going on while n friend
of the Harrisburg Patriot was acting
Mayor. There seems to be now a
difference of opinion between the
Harrisburg Patriot and some citizens
who saw the burlesque shows last
week whether they have been toned
down or not
If the shows are as raw as the
Harrisburg Patriot SAYS, why does
not the Harrisburg Patriot manage
ment get tho evidence and sue? The
Harrisburg Patriot has been trump
ing up charges in the courts of pub
lie opinion a whole lot In the last
decade or so. II the shows are bad.
let the Harrisburg Patriot take them
into the courts of law.
