TOM ANNEAR IS
COMING MONEY
TO WIN THE WAR
FAVORS EMPLOYEES JOIN
ING FEDERAL UNION.
Not in Active Politics This Year, but
Knows the Game Thoroly; Made
Good Labor Record in Legislature;
Was Commissioner of Supplies

Thomas Annear, superintendent of
the United States mint in Denver, is
not candidate for office in the state
election: He is too active coming
money for Uncle Sam to devote any
of his valuable time to plebian poll
tics. Says he is kept busy enough
jollying the big force of employees
now working three shifts at the mint
to consider any proposition other than
producing money necessary to win the
war. Hurrah for Tom! He's got the
right idea.
Recently about one hundred govern
ment employees at the mint became
members of a local branch of the Ma
tional Federal Employees Union. OF
course, Superintendent Annear pre-
sented no objection, because he is a
believer in organized labor and on
many occasions has taken opportu-
nifty to show this.
Nevertheless, Tom knows something
about state politics. He was a men,
Der of the house in the eleventh gen.
eral assembly and served in the SEN
ate during the twelfth and thirteenth
sessions Of the legislature. He was
chairman Of the committee on labor
and reported favorably on the first
eight-hour bill passed by the Colorado
legislature. In 1902 he was a labor
| candidate for lieutenant governor, but
failed to reach the final goal. Later
he was elected treasurer of San Juan
county, then booming silver and gold
mining district and thoroly organized.
He received the support of practically
every member of organized labor in
the county. While a member of the
legislature in 1897 he served on spe-
cial committee that was instrumental
in bringing about a satisfactory set
tlement of a strike in the Leadville
district.
During Mayor Arnold's administra-
ton, Mr.. Annear was commissioner of
supplies for the city and county of
Denver and when advertising for bids
made it rule always to insist upon
union products made in Denver when
ever possible to obtain.
Several times Mr.. Annear has been
approached by friends who urged him
to become a candidate for Congress in
this district. There are many citizens
who believe that if Tom had been less
modest this community might have
had real representative during past
years in the National House of Rep
resentatives.
As superintendent of the United
| States mint in Denver he is held re-
| sponsible for Che largest storehouse
of gold coin and gold bars under any
one roof in the world, now approx
mating something like SS00,000,000.
Being surrounded by so much wealth
does not cause Tom to become auto
cratic or "puffed up" In fact, he is
i very democratic as well as a Demo-
crat. Tom has the friendship of each
and every employe of the mint, not
only because of his pleasing person.
ality, but by reason of his fairness
and interest in his fellowmen. His
office is always open to any employe
who has complaint to make and if
there is any redress necessary, it is
soon Forthcoming.

ARE FREE FROM GARNIsHMENT.
Director McAdOo Issues Order Pro-
tecting Mems Wages.

Under orders issued by William G.
McAdoo, director general of railroads,
no employe of government-con-
trolled railroad can be garnisheed
The order was received in Denver this
week by the managers and general at
torneys of the railroads, and was made
known to all interested.
1t is generally understood that the
order of the director general is purely
in the interest of the men in war
times, when living expenses are high,
when every employe is called upon
for subscriptions to war finances, and
by abolishing garnishment if it pre-
sumed that Mr.. McAdoo figures that
the men won't have the worry of such
legal steps and therefore will be more
contented in their work for the gov
ernment
1t is stated, however, by many mer-
chants that there is very little gar
nishment of wages of railroad en-
ployes; that these men are, as a rule,
good pay, and therefore the order will
not have much effect.

MORE PAY FOR TEACHERS HERE
ADVOCATED BY Mr.. MADDEN
Illinois Representative Censures Congress
for Narrow Vision During Discussion
of District Appropriation Bill.

this committee ought to be devising
ways and means to find out how we
can enact a law that will give them
compensati ton commensurate with the
sacrifice which they make. Teachers
OF the public schools command the re-
spect of the American people to a
higher degree and to greater ex-
tent than any other people in the ma
ton. They deserve it.
They make more sacrifice. There
is no hope for them They live in an
atmosphere which breaks them down
nervously. and when they are no
longer able to perform the work for
which they are employed they are
thrown out like piece of driftwood.
Ihcy Will not keep them unless they
are qualified. If you pension them,
You pension them out of the savings
which they themselves make. They
are reuired to contribute to the pen
sion roll, and frequently it happens
that the pension fund which accum-
disstpated by those who manage the
funds, SO that as the teachers grow
old in the service they find them
selves unable even to get the pension
from the fund to which they paid"
Representative Sisson explained
that word had been passed to the
appropriations committee to suspend
consideration of all salary increases
until estimates on the subject are
submitted later by the Treasury. He
made this explanation as an assur-
ance that the teachers will lose none
Of their rights If the salary question
is not settled finally in the pending
bill.

1.-THE conditions that have surround.
the war in Europe have been as
onerous as the conditions surround
ing the lives Of other people. Girls
without any knowledge, without any
experience, with substasntlaiy no no
service Of the government since the
war began to do fling work in the
government Offices, not only mere
in Washington, but everywhere
been given anywhere from s1,1oo to
$1,000 and S1,4O0 a year without any
knowledge whatever; and yet here
these women who have given years
of their early life to acquire .ha an eau u
which they propose to devote their
lives are compelled by the dictum OF
the Congress of the United States,
so far as the District Of colnm rHaaio Is
wages It is shame.
1.-The wise gentlemen on the District
appropriation subcommittee tell US
that. they do not understand what
longevity pay means or how 1t shall
be calculated, but they can readily
understand that you cannot get more
today for a dollar than you could
ordinarily get before for about 10
cents They tell me that you cal Dt
rent room anywhere In the District
of Columbia without paying $40 or
$50 a. month for it. and If you can gst
YOUR breakfast and can get anything
to eat with it for $3.50 you. are doing
well.
"Now, If these girls are called upon
to work for $525, or say $3.50 now,
how do they manage to live? There
is no other city in the Union that
airy as this city does. And who is to
blame? The Congress Of the United
States. Who else could be to blame?
We ought to have a broader VISION.
We ought to realize that here at the
nations capital we should have the
ployed in our schools. and we doubt
less have, but we have compelled the
talent that we do employ to work at
starvation wages. Many Of them have
been compelled to leave the work
which they intended to follow as
pIoyment in order that they might
keep body and soul together and buy
a few clothes to wear. 1t IS a shame.
"It would not be tolerated anywhere
else and we who speak for the Amer
lean people do not speak their sentf-
ments when we ask these girls, these
women, and frequently men, to work
for this standard of wages. think
we ought not to start any one in a.
work like this on less than $1,000
year, after they have spent ten years
Of their early life in preparing for
the work. qualifying themselves to
do the thing which we require them
to do in order to build up a. high
