Government Laborers Now
Get Twelve Cents Per Hour

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
Panama, Dec. 8.--The board ap-
pointed by Acting Governor Harding
to consider a revision of wages and
conditions of employment of alien
canal laborers, mostly negroes. has
granted an increase of about 20 per
cent in pay to the lowest paid labor
ers, making the minimum wage II in
stead of 10 cents an hour. Minor
increases are given for the more
skilled labor, and those on hazardous
jobs. The new wage scale goes into
effect January |. The board went on
record as recognizing the obligation
of the government to pay its men a
wage sufficient to maintain them in
reasonable comfort and deccncy, and
stated that the higher standard to
which the West Indians had become
accustomed was reason for maintain
ing improved conditions.
The desirability of housing the en-
ployes on the canal zone was stated,
and Acting Governor Harding has
recommended an additional appropria-
ton to take care of this. This feature
has military aspects, as during the re-
cent strike it was brought out that
inimical interests operating in Panama
might prevent many of the laborers
from going from their houses to work
and thus cripple the operation of the
canal
