HIGH WAGES At PORT PENN
CUT BY GOVERNMENT ORDER
MECHANICS RESENT CHANCE
FOR PROFIT BY QUITTING,
Government Action Was the Result of
a Several Weeks Investigation
Reduction of cents per Hour

Government Action Was the Result of !
a Several Weeks Investigation
Reduction of cents per Hour
Almost all the mechanics employed |
at the bOmb-loading plant under con-
struction at Port Penn for the Marlin
Rockwell Company of Wilmington,
quit work Wednesday after notice
was posted that a general cut in
wages would be made by order of the
government. The government order
was issued as the result of an investi-
cation lasting several weeks into the
amount of work being done by the
men on this operation. Immediately
after the notice was posted Wednes-
day morning, the plumbers and steam
filters refused to start work. At noon
a majority of the carpenters walked
out. Denial is made by the men that
a strike is in progress. They assert
that they quit work as individuals but
not as a body. Being employed on
government work, the mechanics enjoy
deferred classification, which they
would lose under the law recently
passed by Congress in case of strike.
The men admit, however, that prin-
ciple of unionism is involved, as the
union rules forbid members to work
beside a man receiving less than the
union scale of wages. They declare
that the foremen and helpers are not
receiving the union scale. According
to the men, the agreement between
them and the Fred 7. Ley Company
of Springfield, Mass, which is con
structing the plant for the Marli1
Rockwell Company, was that the!
should be paid the same scale as tina
: in effect in Wilmington. This agree
b. ment with the plumbers and steam
/, filters, they say, was that with thei
/ helpers and foreman, should be pai
a certain rate for an eight-hour day
/, and all overtime should be dOubl
K time. The reduction announces tha
all plumbers and steamftters shall b
: reduced 5 cents per hour, and a
S helpers and former shall be paid q
: the rate of time and half for ovel
time.

Plans for the annual sweet pea ex-r hibit which will be held at the Wom- ans club on April 23 were advanced yesterday when the committee in charge Of the affair outlined important details. The exhibition is open to tha public, the only request being that all exhibits be in place by noon the. day of the exhibit.

 During the hours from 2:30 until G. 30 o'clock it is hoped that the Wom- ans club will be crowded" said Mrs.
 Dryer, in expressing the wish that the exhibit would promote the sweet pea
 garden idea.
 She stated that four things would be
 taken into consideration when the flowers were judged, including length of stem, number of blossoms. size of
 blossoms and clearness of color.
 The following prizes have been of-
 fered:
 First and second prizes for center<
 piece by the civics education depart
 ment of the Womans club.

K. OF P. LODGE ]
 B|G BOND BUYER

Exactly s1,000 worth of the third Liberty loan bonds will be purchased by Phoenix Lodge, No. ?, Knights or Pythias. This was decided upon last evening at the regular business meet ing of the Pythians. And in addition, the lodge voted to make an initial pur- chase of war savings baby bonds Ill the sum of s15.
 This is not a spasmodic burst of en- thusiasm on the part of the Pythian lodge. When the first Liberty loan drive was on, among the first pur- chasers was Phoenix Lodge, No. 2. The purchase at that time as at present amounted to s1,000. It was the opinion of the members that the government during the next few years could make better use of whatever surplus the lodge had on hand than the lodge could | itself. -t
 Now comes the determination on the part of the lodge to effect savings wherever possible and to turn these savings into thrift stamps and baby 1 bonds. This is a movement entirely apart from the organization of d war savings society among the lodge mem bers. Those who joined this society profit individually by the purchase of stamps and bonds. But the lodge itself will profit through the purchase Of stamps and bonds with funds actually saved by the lodge and diverted to that purpose.

GLASS FOUND IN

 Carl Akers, a young man living at5a rooming house at S1O North Third avenue found in an aspirin tablet five pieces of glass, two of which were as large as pin-head. Most people tak- ing tablets or pills swallow them whole. AkerS fortunately did not do that Where were five other tablets in the package, but when he crushed .thepl he found no glass.
 The tablets were of a well-known brand, the best known brand, of Ger man manufacture and are found at nearly all drug stores. How they. have been obtainable here so long after commerce with Germany was cut off by the war. long before the entrance of the United States into ii, is not known.
 There is at least one American brand of aspirin tablets on the market, but for some reason the German tablets have been preferred by users of as-' pirin.

SAILORS

 READY FOR REVOLT
lnr Review I.eased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, March, 23.-Unrest in the Apstro-Hmgarian army and navy is discussed in a dispatch from Switzerland received here today through official French channels. The message says:
 At the end of February Emperor Charles in an order widely commented upon today in Austro-Hungarian cir cles, appointed as an aide, an admiral who would no longer be responsible to the parliamentary delegations: A paper in Budapest assures us that this measure is due to events recently occurring in the fleet. One recalls in truth that not long ago an Austro- Hun Sarian warship surrendered to the Italians. Since then difficulties of a very serious nature occurred in all the Adristic ports.
 ''It is besides characteristic to note fbat the present commander of the fleet who is Jougcslav, has just been replaced by a Magyar. The disturb. ence seems also to have affected the military forces in the interior. For this reason martial law has been pro claimed in Bosnia and Herzgovna where the Slavs have refused to fir, upon the manifestants. This severe measure has just. been extended to three districts of Croatia boredring upon Dalmatia. Finally, the soldiers ave teen refused all holidays"

 ment charges, although they have had

 Profit has disappeared from most oi
 their contracts, and the margin on the
 rest is hardly sufficient to balance
 the losses. But for the fact tnal
 most of the securities issues of the
 refineries are held by large copper producers, it would long since have
 become an impossible situation. As it, the doss of profits sustained by the refineries falls back as an increased charge on the cost of copper at the mines, which is proper enough, inas- much as mines, shelter and refinery are really all associated plants neces- sary to putting the ore in salable shape on the market. But there is attendance in the present situation of a further item of cost to the producer of copper to SC, down against the price of 23h cents and which should help to get the advance in the metal price in June, which both the operator and the operative need under the pre- vailing conditions of abnormal operat- ing and living costs of all kincs.
 The Mining Shares
 In the mining share markets there has been a period of uncertainty ana stagnation. This condition has applied to all of the lists. The war news has been an undeniable factor. but the approaching Liberty loan is probaDiy the more important item in the situa. ton. Clearance of securities is being made by a great many investors in order to be in readiness to participate in the forthcoming lean. Pressure oi sales of this sort has been such as ;o make good news that has come along abortive in point of effect as an ad- vancing agency It is not proDa07e that the stock market will look up ;n any sort of a purposeful way, except as to an occasional issue of specia. and these probaDiy among the newer and smaller of-e.- ings, until after the success of the new loan has come to be assured volume of subscriptions re- ceived.
