District and County Divide Cost

The county and the East Fork lrri-

expense of keeping the East Fork of
Hood river confined to definite chan
mel, where the county maintains a
bridge and Just below the intake of

posed work, estimated at an approxi.
mate S400, will consist largely of log
diversion dams. 1t will eliminate a

SOUND JUDGMENT
IN SHOP COMMITTEE

Samuel Crowther, writing in the De-
cember Worlds Work, gives the following
description of the extraordinary operations
Of shop committee in the~-Amcrlcan
Multigraph Co.:
The compittee went carefully through
the wages of the entire manufacturing
side, correcting as far as possible every
inequality, and very successfully trying
20 coordinate ability and remuneration.
Having finished the factory they asked
for permission to look over the office,
with the idea in mind that everyone
should get what was coming to him. Be
cause office people are comparatively
easy 10 get and the holder of a white
collar Job usually inclined toward meek
ness, no end Of irregularities were turned
up in the office. They found a few people,
who had persisteptly presented their
claims. overpaid They found others,
who were afraid to talk about their wages
underpaid, and here again the committee
adjusted service and remuneration, taking
into account not only the actual services
rendered, but the market value Of such
services in other parts of Cleveland, which
data they obtained by first-hand investi-
cation.
] have never heard Of a more thorough
or more remarkably successful task of
wage adjustment than this one which was
carried through by workers whose con-
ception of wages is usually supposed to
be bound up in the word more.

The Shore Line trolley situation was taken up again by the common conn- cil at it's october meeting in the coun- Gil chamber Monday evening and the man Edward Crooks committee Of three members of the council was Ap- pointed by Mayor J. J. Desmond to meet ill conference with the Shore Line off1cials and the ofi1cials of the trolley mems union in an Nffort to effect some sort of a settlement between the two factions. In bringing up the trolley situation Councilman Crooks said that people in the city who would like to ride on the troIleys and would do so if it were not for the fear of invoking such names as 'scabs.' etc. The conn mittee appointed by the mayor con Sists of Alderman J. A. George. Coun- cilman John T. Gleason and Council man Crooks.
 One other incident served to enliven consid erably the otherwise monotonous routine of the reading of reports ana the referring of petitions. This was a somewhat heated controversy be- tween Councilman Gleason and Alder man c. V. Pendleton over the resolu- tion adopted by the council some time ago to the effect that all municipal automobiles shall bear the name of the department each machine belongs to, together with the word Norwich.
 The water department has not conn., piled with the resolution, or rather tho water board at a recent meeting de- cided that the word "Norwfch" was superfiuous. They don't object to the department name being painted on the side of the automobiles used by the water department, but when it came to adding the name Norwich the board decided that this was unneces- sary. Councilman Gleason informed Alderman Pendleton of the boards feelings in the matter after Alderman PendIeton called for a report of the action taken on the matter by the day evening. And in conveying this intelligence to Alderman Pendleton, Councilman Gleason said that he con- sidered it "small politics" to take this matter up. And then Couecflman Gleason aired his opinion of the pro- posed municipal gasoline station which had just previously come up for dis cussion. Councilman Gleasons enthu- siasm over this matter was evidently al ebb tide. for he called 1t "bosh.''
 Councilman Crooks here raised a point of order, saving that the discus sion was not on the proposed munich pal gasoline station but on the watch departments action in regard to the painting of the word Norwich on their machines. Mayor Desmond said he thought the discussion should be confined to the matter before the coun- cil.
 Alderman Pendleton said that If the resolution was not respected he felt that an ordinance should be passed. carving with it a penalty if found necessary. The sum and substance Of his renarks was that he could f'ld nothing in the city charter givdng the water department any i;cer~e to fo- nore action hv the council. The heat ed discussion followed report of progress made bv Alderman T. A. George of the committee enoointed to irstruct the various citv depa artments of the action taken hv the council and n renort back to the con~cil what ec- tion the various departments had
