RECOMMENDATIONS MADE

| Without dissenting vote the
Chamber of Commerce, in session at

under which the National Capital has
made its great development, by rider
to the appropriations bill.

measure providing new organic act
or constitution for the District of Co
lumbia under which the United States
should do more rather than less than
now for it's capital.
Now that Washington has become
! a world capital. the pride taken in it
by the people of the country and their
desire to continue to make it as near

greatly enhanced. The great war has
endeared it anew to all true Ameri-

and of their ideals of justice and lib

mum salary of $1,000 year for grade
teachers and $500 a year for high
school teachers. The report was re-
ferred to the school committee for
action at the next meeting.
Mr.. Thurston declared that unless
the teachers are given a living wage
I'VE will soon reach = point where we
will be unable to hold certain classes
continuously"
Mr.. Thurston said he wanted the
business men to remember that they
are paying moro to unskilled laborers
than the government is paying to the
trained women who are molding the
lives of the children Of Washington.
In many classrooms, said Mr.. Thurs
ton, children have boosted that they
made more money working during
