100000 RAILROAD
 MEN GET MORE PAY
VIII Re Effective Saturday and Retroactive to January 1- Women Will Get Same Pay as Men for Same Work.

Washington, May 26.-General pay ..oreases for nearly two million rail rosd employees were announced today nr Director General McAdoo, effective nsxt Saturday and retroactive to last 1.r carving cut substantially re- .ommendations of the railroad wage commission. The aggregate of the increases probably will be more than sSOO0OO, 900 year, half of which will ho distributed within few weeks as hack pay in lump sums ranging from .bout S1OO to nearly $200 each.
 The director-general departed from tho wage commissions recommends lions in the following particulars:
 The principle of the basic eight hour day is recognized, but owing to exigencies of the war situation, hours of employment are not actually re- duced and overtime is to be paid pro rata: future adjustments of pay are to he made on the basis of eight hours.
 In addition to the ordinary scale of increase, day laborers employed main- y on track work are to get at least 2 1-2 cents an hour more than they received Dec. 31.
 A minimum of 55 cents an hour is established for the shop trades, in- cluding machinists, boilermakers and blacksmiths.
 Women are to receive the same pay as men for the same work, and ne- groes are to get the same as white men for similar employment.
 To work out multitude of inequali- ties of pay among employees doing similar work in difficult localities and other injustices caused by varying rules of employment, and condition of organization, the director general ere ated a new board of railroad wages and working conditions consisting of three labor representatives and three railway executives, which will conduct extensive investigations and recom- mend wage and other employment changes.

.69 DRAFTED MEN
 TO CAMP PIKE
Entertained Before Departure at the Park Hotel With Lunch con Under Auspices of the Prescott Home Guard.

Nevada county has made another donation to the cause of humanity in the persons of 65 young men who left this afternoon at 12:15 on a special train bearing other drafted men for Camp Pike. Four of the men were registered at other places in the coun- try but were living here at the time and to save expense of transportation, they were sent from Prescott.
 Dozens of automobiles and other vehicles brought the young men to the city yesterday afternoon to report to the loacl board, after which they were permitted to return home. A program was arranged to take place at the Park Hotel immediately after the luncheon, but the plans miscarried and it was not rendered according to the plan. Hon. T. c. McRae and Hon. J. o. A. Bush made splendid ad- dresses to the assembly of boys and their relatives in front of the hotel, after which the young men marched to the station, where they boarded the train on which were hundreds of other boys en route to the place where the kaiser's goat is held in captivity A more able looking bunch never left the county than the farmer boys who stood up like men this afternoon and shook hands and kissed relatives good bye, and although many tears were shed by people they left behind, these stout hearted young men raised yell as the train pulled out, which showed that theirs were 69 minds with but a single thought, that of going to the front and doing their duty for home and loved ones.

 "A party of our troops raided the enemy's trenches south of Bouquoy in daylight yesterday and captured IA prisoners and two machine guns. During the night other successful raids were carried out by us east of Hebuterne and south of Neuville Vii tasse, resulting in the capture of 15 prisoners and a machine gun.
 "Hostile raiding parties were re- pulsed last night in the neighborhood of Sally le Sec, Bouquoy, Ablainze- vile, Festubert and Morris.
 "The enemy's artillery has shown somewhat increased activity, particu- larly in the Villers- -Bretonneux and Dernancourt sectors, in the neighbor- hood of Bouquoy and between Nieppe wood and Meteren."
 Field Marshal Haig's report tonight from British headquarters in France says:
 During the nj ght hostile raid was repulsed by the French troops in the sector north of Bailleul.
 Smelling, repeated last night in the Villers- -Bretonneux sector, was heavy, consisting of gas shells. There was heavy gas shelling also this morning west of Hinges"

NEVADA NEARLY
 DOUBLES QUOTA
Complete Returns Not in, But Total Has Already Passed the $7,00O Mark - Some Town ships Still Working.

Every township in Nevada county has exceeded it's quota in the second Red Cross drive and in some places they are still soliciting subscriptions and the official total will probably not be available for two or three days. Outside of Missouri township, which includes Prescott, Taylor township is the banner one, having raised $610, and it's quota was $40O. However, there are others that ran Taylor a close race, and will come in for their share of honor when the official fig ures are announced by townships.
 According to County Chairman c. K. Haynie, $7,000 was the figures tele- graphed to the Red Cross headquar- ters in Little Rock this morning which is a conservative estimate on the amount raised in the county so far.
 Many speakers went out over the county yesterday and Saturday mak- ing addresses and encouraging dona- tions and everywhere they found the people already in the act of giving to the best of their ability.

WELCOME GEORGE

George Creel, chairman of the
committee on public information,
thanks the publishers of the United
States for their adherence to self
imposed rules of censorship This Is
refreshing from journalist who has
never learned that the first princi-
pie of newspapering is this: Not
what to print, but what not to print
Mr.. Creel's chief accomplishments
have been to WELD censorship over
a fraternity that has forget ten times
more about patriotic self suppression
than he ever knew, and to give on
cial approval to news and photo
graphs so apparently faxed that no
accredited newspaper correspondent
could have been deceived into spon-
