Government Clerks
Ask Wage Increases
Through Two Bills

Washington. D. c., Jan. 15.-It
seems as if the much maligned gov
eminent clerk is soon to come into
his own He has suffered for a long
time on small wages. But now there
are several bills in congress designed
to help this financial situation.
One Of these measures, known as
TIE Heating bill. stipulates temporary
salary increases for employees making
$500 or less. The increases graduate
from to 30 percent
Another measure. known as the
Nolan bill. provides that no person
who has been in the employ Of the
government for three years and who
is 20 years old shall receive less than
SO per day, $50 per month, or S10SO
per year.
Neither Of the bills are regarded as
ideal The Heating bill is only for
temporary relief In the case Of the
Nolan bill the clerks say that there
are many in the ranks. who. even
though they receive more than SO per
day. still need more money.
Even IL both these bills pass con-
gress there is a strong likelihood
that still another bill carrying n COM
plete reclassification Of salaries will
be presented.

COAL DIGGERS HOLD THEIR
CONVENTION; NO INCREASE

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 15.-With
addresses of welcome by state and
city officials and the reading of a
letter from president Wilson, express
ing his good will toward the coal
diggers of the country. the biennial
convention Of the United Mine Work
ers Of America opened here today, the
delegates in attendance representing
more than 4O0.0 900 organized men in
the industry.
While the delegates will not ask
for higher wages they are expected
to take action looking to the main
tenance of the present standard, at
least after the war is over. To this
end a large defence fund is suggested
by the leaders for use in event any
attempt is made to lower wages
Among the plans on foot is one to
increase the per capita tax from rs
cents to so cents a month to meet
increased expenses Of the union and
to nay the costs of the organizing
campaign. Another plan is TO assess
the members so cents a month for de-
fence purposes only.

hearing that story, accepts it. excuses
Fred for putting his business inter

that Fred has hurt her once and
likely will do it again.
The explanation which Janet fairly
forces from Fred may, however. be
something like this: The good look

not seen for years and with whom
he really longed to have 4 quiet. old
