MEN DISCUSS
NEW WAGE DEMANDS
Workers and Employers Hold Ses-
sions-,Many Firms Have
Agreed to Readjustment.

The demand of the members Of In
ternational Jewelry Workers Union,
No. II. for a readjustment of their
wage scale, establishment of the
forty -four-hour week, which carries
with it a 20 per cent increase and the
year around Saturday half holiday,
and double time for all overtime. to
become effective Monday. was under
consideration last night by the local.
At the same time 1t was reported to
the union that the employing jewelers.,
to whom the demand was made the
last of May. also were in session con-
sidering the demand.
Many of the employing jewellers and
manufacturing jewelers. have already
agreed to pay the increased wage
scale and comply with the other con-
by members of the Jewelry Workers
Union that every one of the many
firms of Washington employing mem
bers of the organization will meet
the demand before the time set for it
to become effective and thus eliminate
any possibility of a strike.
The average wage scale paid now
under the old agreement is for a
minimum wage of $50 a week. The
workmA are made up of jewelers..
Watchmakers, die makers. designers
and badge makers, silversmiths, en-
gravers and kindred trades. each vo-
cation being paid different scale of
wages. All the men are skilled me-
chanics in their particular lines. Thera
are eighty-seven places in the city
where members of the organization
are employed and with firms that are
under agreement to employ only
union men.
Eight new members were added to
the union last night, making the union
nearly 100 per cent strong among the
workers Of all the trades employed
here by the manufacturing and en-
ploying jewelers..
Frank Collan, chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee. of which F. NJ.
Leitheiser is secretary, charged with
the duty of adjusting the wage scale,
told the members of the union last
night that the employing jewelers.
were showing a disposition of fair
ness in considering the demand. made
necessary by the increased cost of
living. and that every firm employing
members of the union would in all
probability sign the new scale.

BETTER BUY COAL NOW,
LOCAL DEALERS WARN
Will Find It Difficult to Get It
Later-Price Not to
Drop.

Washington householders who put
off filing their coal bins for next
winter in the hope that the price of
fuel will drop. will find it difficult to
get coal when the frost sets in, local
dealers warned their patrons today.
The warning is given as a reminder
Of the appeal issued recently by the
fuel administrator. urging the people
to buy their coal now, in order to
keep the miners busy during the sum-
mer and also to relieve congestion on
the railroads in the fall.
The local dealers issued the warning
to their customers following receipt
railroads informing them of an ex-
pected shortage in the supply of coal
and cars to haul 1t next winter The
letter from the railroad urged the
dealers to move their shipments of
coal as rapidly as possible.
I'VE are informed" reads the rail-
road circular. that from present in
dications there will be a severe short
age Of coal and coal cars during the
coming fall and winter, and, in order
to relieve this situation as much as
possible, you will please get in touch
with all coal dealers in your terri
tory and give them these facts and
urge them to place their orders for
early delivery.
This information should be dissem-
mated by you to the fullest extent to
all the dealers and others in your
territory.
1T is evident that many people have
withheld their orders, expecting the
price of coal to be cheaper later in
the season. but this is a wrong i'm
preston. as the Indications are that
coal will be much higher than it has
been heretofore"
