CLAIM WAGES
UP TO LIMIT
Navy Repair Chiefs Fail to
Meet Demands of
Craftsmen.

Craftsmen Of the Bureau Of Con-
struction and Repair Of the Navy
Department are deeply dissatisfied
according to officials OF the Drafts
mems Union, No. 1879. with the con-
ditlons imposed upon them by the
officers connected with this Bureau.
They are recorded as disloyal," /"
said one of the officers, " IL they re-
sign to accept a better position on
the outside. and at the same time
are told that raises in this Bureau
have Gone the limit
1T is apparently the policy" con-
tinued the official, "to let their expert
enced men go rather than advance
them to meet salaries offered by Gov
ernment contractors. and obtain new
and experienced men in their places
to design warships for the navy"
Yard Employees Hopeful
On the other hand the navy yard
officials, it has been learned by navy
yard members of the Draftsmen's
Union, have been working toward an
increase in pay for their craftsmen
for some weeks past, and are now
cooperating with the craftsmen in
"a highly comniendable way" in order
that they may obtain some relief.
1t Is to be regretted, they said, that
through a misunderstanding navy
yard officials have been criticized for
unfayorable conditions which do not
exist at the navy yard, but do exist,
according to the craftsmen in, in other
departments and bureaus where
craftsmen are employed.
Paid For Overtime.
Craftsmen at the local yard receive
pay for overtime work, leaders of the
Craftsmen Union said, as they do at
all the yard yards in the country, but
the men at the Navy Department and
the War Department receive no extra
compensation for overtime work.
The men are hopeful that Navy De-
partment officials W., see the Justice
of the demands Of their men, and ap-
prove recommendations for Increases
as forwarded to the department by
the navy yard officials.

Support to Women's Drive Pledged
by Press.

The editors of Maryland. whose con-
ventlon at Baltimore has just closed.
have pledged their unqualified support
and cooperation in the war work
campaign OF the Young Women s
Christian Association, according to
message received by the Y. W. c. A.
War Work Council last night
The following resolution, signed by
John E. Raine, president and W. s.
McCombs, secretary, was unanimously
adopted by the Maryland editors:
THE Maryland Press Association
has watched with profound respect
and alteration the indefatigable ef-
forts of the women of our land
through various organizations to
ameliorate the suffering and stimu-
late the efforts Of soldiers who fight
to make the world a decent place for
democracy. We have every confidence
that the untiring aid will continue un-
til ultimate victory avails to this end.
We congratulate them upon their ac-
complishments in the past and pledge
them our unqualified cooperation and
aid until the war ends"
The Washington herald., 1918-09-11
CLAIM M 'ADOO
MAY STEP OUT
Expect Secretary to Quit
Cabinet Place, Says
N. Y. World.

William G. McAdoo is expected to
step out of the Office OF Secretary of
the Treasury. and John Shelton Will
Jams is expected to step into the Cabi-
net office thus vacated, says the New
York World.
There has been no announcement of
the projected change, official or other
wise, but the men who are in a DO
sition to know whisper that this first
shift in the War Cabinet will come
with the new liberty loan.
The business of the railroads has
developed to such magnitude, and
calls for such attention by the Di-
rector General that it is deemed more
than any man can do adequately to
fill both great offices.
The effort to accomplish this was
responsible for the breaking of Mr..
McAdoo's health in the spring, and
there was dismay in the National
Capital at the danger, happily avert
ed, that another man would have to
be found to take over the tremendous
responsibilities. 1t was recognized
then that IL Mr.. McAdoo dropped out
two men would have to be chosen to
fill his shoes. The anticipated change
simply amounts to doing this same
thing without losing McAdoo.
OF the two Jobs, the Directorship
OF the Railways is incomparably the
more exacting, and, under existing
conditions, the more important The
Treasury runs more or less according
to routine. The railroads present a
constant succession of new problems.
Naturally the report that the Direc-
tor of Railroads is to separate him.
self from the Treasury has given rise
to the idea that there would be
new Cabinet office shortly, that of
Secretary Of Transportation, and that
too seems probable.
For days there have been rumors
of Cabinet changes. These dealt
mainly with Secretary of War
Bakers post. The story was told
that Mr.. Baker would be the success
sor of Ambassador Page at London
and that McAdoo would get the place
of Secretary of War. That is not
going to happen.
Whenever Secretary Baker has
gone abroad some such rumor has
been floated. Mr.. Baker will, how
ever, be back at his old desk in
month or two and will remain there
until 1t is time for another visit
to the fighting army.
While Mr.. McAdoo was In Wash
ington between his Western trip and
his present journey he worked over
menus until he had found what he
could supply for 81 and 81. Is, the prices
for lunches and dinners on the din
ing cars after Oct. /. While he was
at this he worked out a plan for pool
ing the eating equipment of various
railroads, so that after the first of
the month passengers are likely to
find themselves patronizing an Illinois
Central travelling restaurant on New
York Central run. II that will make
Tor aegyise.

general to determine the necessity OF

so regarded.
