LETTER CARRIERS
SHOULD GET MORE
NEW YORK SUN CALLS UP
ON CONGRESS TO ACT.
Citizens Generally, Particularly Those
So Efficiently Served Each Day,
Should Consider 1t Privilege to
Write to Their Senators and
Congressman at the Capitol.

Uncle Sam is rich and he spends his
money freely, but like all other big
hearted characters. he clings to a pet
parsimony here and there. In some
cases the injustice is so plain that
when the facts are stated they con-
stitute sufficient case against the
government without any argument.
Such case is that of the letter car
riers, who are petitioning congress for
legislation increasing their pay.
1t took eighteen years to get the
last increase, which was voted ten
years ago. 1t would be time to con-
slider an overhauling of the budget in
any case. But when the war prices
of the present are taken into account
it is absurd to expect men to work for
compensation that was considered no
more than enough in 1907.
Decided elements of character, judg-
ment and alertness, as well as con-
tinued good health and physical en-
durance, enter into this work. A man
must work four or five years as a sub
stitute at indeterminate pay before
he is eligible to enter the regular serv-
ice at $500. 1t takes nine years to
reach the maximum, 81 200. The men
are asking for $1,000 minimum and
81 800 maximum
Take one item of expense, the uni
form. This has gone up at least so
per cent in cost About two suits
year are needed Shoes-anybody
knows how they have jumped When
the carrier is i'll he gets no pay, even
tho his illness be caused by exposure
or poorly ventilated workroom. The
New York Letter Carriers association
raise and administer a sick fund and
the men have realized 100000 in ben
efits. These workers are sober, fru-
gal and patriotic.
There is no reason in the financial
condition of the department for mig
gardliness toward the men. The post
office long ago passed the profit
mark. The surplus for the year end
ing June 80, 1917, was S9,000,000.
Many workers in other lines have
got voluntary increases from their
employers. The power of the union
has been applied successfully in other
cases. These postoffice employees have
no means of securing a reasonable
and deserved advance except thru the
action of congress. They are the serv-
ants of all the people individually
and of the nation in its collective ac-
tivities. Citizens should unite in urg
ing their representatives in Washing
ton to vote the increase in pay pro-
.vided in the measure known as H. R.
1854, bill to regulate the salaries of
postoffice clerks in first and second
class postoffices and letter carriers in
the city delivery service.-New York

ONLY GET THE BARE MINIMUM

The Washington state legislative
committee of the central labor council
reports that the women's minimum
wage law in this state is used
by employers to hold these work
ers to bare minimum, while liv-
ing costs have increased over 80 per
cent, according to government figures.
The employers point to the law, and
if women strike to enforce living
wage they are called "unpatriotic !"
The state industrial commission has
been urged to act, but that body pleads
lack of funds to hold public hearings.

statewide campaign to pry the conf
mission from its "do-nothing" posi-
ton.

RIGHT AFTER MARY.

They were having a quiz in English
history at a West Side public school.
The instructor was examining the pu-
pills on their knowledge of the SOW
ereigns of England.
"Who came after Henry the
Eighth ?" asked the teacher.
Edward the Sixth" answered a pu-
pill.
Right. And who succeeded Ed
ward the Sixth ?"
"Mary," replied the second little
bright eyes.
Correct, and who came after

There was puzzled pause. Then a
scholar who had heretofore not con-
tributed much to the progress of
learning had an inspiration. He
waved his hand on high, and being
called on, answered triumphantly:

Bricklayers

The new draft machinery was in
voked for the first time when Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder made
public this week instructions to all
governors calling for the mobilization
of / 900 bricklayers, urgently needed
by General Pershing in France at
once.
Local boards are called upon to ex-
anime questionnaires now being re-
turned and report as rapidly as pos
sible on the number of bricklayers of
draft age available for service. Only
white bricklayers will be taken, either
bv draft or by voluntary induction into
the military service thru local boards.
They will be forwarded to the aviation
section, signal corps, at Kelley field,
San Antonio, Tex The purpose for
which they are to be used in France
is now disclosed.
The order is the first application of
the special occupational classification
provisions of the new draft regula-
tions. The bricklayers in any boards
jurisdiction will be assembled in order
of their draft number, relationship to
each other, but without regard to the
men in any other occupation.
General Crowder's letter to the gov
ernors indicates that similar calls for
skilled men in other trades are to be
expected
