THE WAGE QUESTION

An important bulletin dealing with the questions of minimum wage and hours of work was issued re- gently to all shipyards and auxiliary plants by the Industria' Relations Group, United States Shipping Board, Emergency Fleet Corpora tion.
 The bulletin deals with a recent strike of 5000 men in eight plants at Waynesboro, Pa. A decision on the matters at controversy in this strike was rendered by the Ma tional War Labor Board. The bull letin sets forth that this decision gives indication of the future policy of the board regarding minimum wage and hours of work The bull letin says:
 "The Director of Industrial Rela- tions is receiving numerous inquir- ies regarding the establishment of a minimum wage. The National War Labor Board is not ready to an- nounce a fixed policy in this ques- tion, but it's decision of July 23 gives an indication as to future ac- tion.
 'At Waynesboro, Pa, 5000 men in eight plants struck for a mini mum wage of 30 cents per hour. The lowest-paid men had been get ting 22 cents. The board estab- lished minimum of 40 cents, 10 cents more than the workers asked The board is giving further con- sideration to this minimum and re- serves the right to revise it on the basis of what is necessary to main tain the worker and his family in reasonable comfort.

COST OF LIVING

The Bureau of Labor Statistics of Washington, D. C., is starting 8 countrywide investigation of the cost of living. The material collect ed is to be used as basis in mak- ing wage adjustments.
 The inquiry will include several different features, the principal one being the gathering of information from families as to their expendi- lures for one year for the various items of food and of clothing, and for housing, fuel, furniture and mis- cellaneous expenses. Information will be gathered by duly authorized special agents of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, who will call on representative families in different parts of each locality visited.
 Not only will the information be of service to the Government, but

MYSTERY
 SHIP |S CAUSING KAISER TROUBLE

WITH THE GRAND FLEET - Visiting the fleet recently King George inspected a mystery ship" which is puzzle to the enemy. Re- ference to her pecularities is off cially restricted to the statement that "she is an airplane carrier"
 This carrier was concerned in the recent attack on the airsheds at TOndern. She reached a suitable point off the German coast in the small hours of the morning and a number of airplanes were sent up with the object of destroying Zep- pelin hangars at Tondern.
 Captain Dixon arrived at Tondern in the early hours of the morning and came so low in searching for hangars that at one time he was within 50 feet of the ground.
 He found Tondern very much asleep and flew over the main street unmolested, seeing only one human being on a farm cart who waved a cordial greeting.
 Observing what he believed to be hangar, Captain Dixon released one bomb from height of 300 feet and received shock when the muni- tion dump exploded. He imme- diately made out the Zeppelin sheds and unloaded his remaining bombs

which caused a fierce fire.

which caused a fierce fire.
 A heavy barrage was then put up by the enemy but Captain Dixon flew off and reached home after three hours in the air.
 The barrage indicated to other attacking planes where to operate, and another machine, piloted by Captain Smart, who was decorated by the king later, attacked and ac- counted for the second Zeppelin shed.

LOADINC PLANES FOR BOMBING IS
 T|CKL|SH WORK

LONDON.-The loading of a bf mbing airplane with bombs for a raid in Germany is risky work and must be carefully done or the work CTS will be destroyed by their own bombs. The big, long-distance air planes carry twelve to fourteen large bombs, each too heavy for a man to lift. Before these are placed in the machine crew of armorers has to prepare them by inserting the various fuses, detonators, and ex- ploders in them, which transform harmless case of treacly T. N. T. into a missile of terrific bursting force.
 These bombs are raised one by one from the ground by a pulley system worked by men inside the machine, while one or two armorers on the ground below steer the un- wieldly yellow cylinder into its guides, and assure themselves that it is firmly held in the hook above before they release it. Loading fourteen bombs of this type takes some little time, and when it has been done the bombs have to be ar ranged and fitted that they can be released either "safe" or "alive" by the observer.
 Meanwhile the engineers are fill ing the great petrol tanks with hundreds of gallons of petrol, and the engines are being carefully over hauled and tested The water tanks and oil tanks in their turn have to be examined and replenished. Car penters test the wings, the wires, and the tail-planes, and adjust the all-important control system.
 Electricians overhaul the various lighting sets for if the lighting sys- tenn fails during flight it may cause a great deal of trouble and prehaps bring disaster.
 Gun-layers are taking their ma chine guns to pieces for the thous- andth time, and are carefully oiling and examining every small part. The guns are then fired on the range before being mounted on the machine. The Verey light pistols and the revolvers belonging to the machine are oiled and tested to make sure the safety and the sue cess of the machine and it's occu- pants, who have to travel | rad night several hundred miles over Germany in their mission of de- struction to the great war 'actories and railway functions of the ler- ish valley.

TINY PER|SCOPE RENDERS DIVERS
 HARD ID LOCATE

AN IRISH PORT.-If the popu- lar conception of the periscope and the manner. in which it is brought to the surface and lowered, were accurate, chasing submarines would be a much easier task than Ameri- can destroyer commanders have laid out for them. They do not see a pipe four or five inches in diameter with lenses at the top swishing through the water or disappearing during the rather slow process of submerging U-boat.
 Instead they see, if they are for tunate enough a slender pipe not more than one and one-half inches in diameter shoot up above the surface and disappear within a few seconds. It is the telescopic peri scope that may be operated from depth of several feet. All under water craft now are equipped with them rather than the old type which through photographs and drawings, has been impressed upon many people.
 The operation of the periscope is controlled to large extent by a very delicate instrument which de- notes to the U-boat commander the condition of the sea at the surface. If it is comparatively smooth which enhances the danger of detection he need raise the periscope only a few inches above the surface. If it is rough he must raise the "eye" higher, but he really is in not as great danger as if the water was calm because it is difficult for an
 'SA oi etiioIHCt SLID lO see the small instrument in a heavy sea.
 The instrument is controlled by water pressure which varies with the height and violence of the waves and shows actual conditions on an indicator in the ship.
 In one successful fight with a U- boat it was estimated that the peri scope was visible less than ten seconds. It came up very close to destroyer, doubtless great deal closer than the submarine con- mander had reckoned, and when he realized his peril he attempted to scurry away. But depth charge was dropped and German submarine power decreased by one boat.
