TO SET MINIMUM. .WACE.FOR WOMEN
 BY LEGISLATION

Washington, July 16--Federal leg isiation toward establishing method by which a minimum wage for women workers may be fixed, is now receiv- ing the attention of Congress. The bill, drawn by Representative Keat- { ing of Colorado, applies only to women employed in industries of the District of Columbia, but is designed as a model from which state legisla- lures may draw similar legislation.
 The bill would create a permanent wage board, which would name sub ordinate boards for each occupation or industry in which women are em- ployed, Such boards would consist of representatives of employers, em- ployes and the public.
 Testimony before the House com mittee which considered the measure showed in the first industry regulated under minimum wage commission of Massachusetts it was found there twas an increase in the actual earnings of women as the result of the work of the boards, It was also found, the committee reports, that the number OL "OLiSh CihplOyeu dL wages HlSue than the prescribed minimum had doubled.
 Mrs. Newtewn D. Baker, wife of the secretary of war, has interested her. self in the proposed legislation, ant was one of several who testified be fore the committee Apparently sh, was no less interested in the bill thai twas the president of the telephon'

SEND IN DOLLAR ID ATHLETIC FUND
Money, Gloves, Balls, Bats, Mitts and Equipment
 Needed in Camps

Favofable comment was heard on every hand yesterday regarding The Age Heraids plan to raise funds to be used in buying baseball equipment for the soldier boys President R. Fl. Baugh Of the Southern league, when inter- viewed on the subject. said. "Allow me to contribute to this fund that you peo- pie are getting lip for the purpose of making the camp life of our army lads less monotonous. Baseball is the great national game for the modern boy and T know of no form of exercise more wholesome or more interesting to the average soldier. Privates in the army at 80 & month don't have much money to spend on baseball gloves, so it's up to us to help them out"
 Some idea of the popularity of the national pastime can be gotten from the statement of a writer at Camp Pike, who said there were already 122 organ ized teams in the cantonment. One scribe goes so far as to say that 't Is unsafe to appear anywhere in the camp during the leisure moments of the sol diers unless provided with a mask and chest protector, because the air is filled with baseballs.'
 Send in your dollar to this paper and contribute some recreation to a soldier boy who otherwise may be deprived ot chance to play his favorite game Or Tiff you had rather do it, send in as many mitts. gloves. balls, boxing gloves footballs and other similar equipment a. you are able to find around the house.

Sometime today a conference of off, cials of the T. c. l. league will be held at which the proposal to reorganize this fast semi-pro circuit will be preached. Harry Urban will call the meeting to order and get the consensus of opinion from all concerned.
 Pratt City is so confident that the T. C. l. will resume it's schedule that they are already lining up their team. Ems ley, Red Mountain, Bayview, Bessemer and Docena are also ready to put a club in the field, should arrangements be perfected for playing.
