[By E. G. Dougherty.l


Washington Sept 22-"The boys of
the 16Sth United States infantry, the
old Fighting Third Iowa. are healthy
and in good spirits, and they can't get
to France too soon"
This was the word brought back TO
Washington by Congressman Sweet, OF
the Third district, and Dowell, Of the
Seventh district, after visit to the
Iowa soldiers at Camp Mills, Garden
City. Long Island, where they re con-
centrated waiting word to board trans
ports for France.
The two Iowa congressman took adj
vantage Of a recess Of congress to
spend day with the officers aud n en-
of the Iowa regiment, many OF whom
they counted among their personal
friends.
I'VE found the officers and men IN
unusually good spirits Congress nan

The men are we'll Their officers are
doing everything possible for the
physical welfare of the men in their
commands I found the very best feel
ing prevailing between officers and
men,"
Congressman Sweet said it was an
inspiring sight to see the men at drill
in regimental and brigade formation.
Overhead. aeroplanes were circling
about Camp Mills in spiral fight. One
of these machines the day before had
broken the altitude record. The Iowa
band was there. I never saw more
inspiring sight than that when the
Iowa band played The Star-Spangled
Banner and the rainbow division stood
at salute"
Assured Support Of Congress.
Congressman Sweet said he and his
colleague assured the Iowa soldiers
that they could count on solid support
in congress while they were on the
other side, and that they could be as
sured that every protection he law
making power could extend would be
given them.
Il wanted to see the boys before
they went to France: Many Of the Off

MUST WAIT FOR
MORE SALARIES

The question as to how the electric
light department happened to have its
appropriation increased by 1925 when
only $125 was requested has been
cleared up. Supervisor Hatch said
Tuesday evening that 1t was due to
a misunderstanding, that he had only
asked for $125 and the board had evi.

500 to pay. for an additional engin.
eer and $25 to increase the salaries OF
three men" said Hatch. . 49,. +
b There was no objection to the 500
which was admitted as absolutely
necessary but over the SIS a great
hue and cry was raised.
How can we reconcile ourselves to
increasing the salaries of these men
when we have already refused the fire
and other departments" said Larsen.
Il cannot understand how Hatch can
ask consistently for salary increases
when all along he has fought other
similar suggestions. / say, either in.

with the exception of the engineer,
as they were before until after an in
