CEMETERIES CALL
FOR RGRAVEDIGGERS

Coincident with the rising OF the
daily death rate from Spanish influ-
enZa, comes the information that
gravediggers can only be secured at
a premium. Every large cemetery in
the District reports a serious short
age. The draft took many of the
men. Government jobs have taken
others. The influenza has incapacita-
ted more.
At Glenwood Cemetery today with
sixteen listed, two OF the six grave
diggers reported for work
Seven bodies were placed in the
morgue at Rock Creek Cemetery today
because men could not be secured to
dig graves.
Congressional and Mt. Olivet ceme-
teries reported a situation almost as
bad
Gravediggers are paid $3.50 for an
eight-hour day.
