On the Wrong Track.

Now we have the mystery revived.

Yesterday and the National City Bank
of New York announced that 1T would
pay the coupons on presentation.
Along with this announcements when,

of the bonds, if there are any except
spectators. it would be a relief to a
doubling public if the people so ready
to pay Russian government debts
would kindly tell the world what is
the Russian government. DO the Boil
sheviki put up the money? Is the czar
really alive and paving his IT. O. Us?
It is said to be unsafe for individuals
to be seen in Russia, especially If they
are under suspicion of having any cash
about their persons. How, then any
body can be furnishing money for the
unknown government is, indeed. hard
to guess, much harder to see. There
is something under this pile that ought
to be brought to light. If our own
governm ent is paving the bills, are not

Mr. Crccl has no more to do Wit
the matter than the writer Of the
Courant editorial. Neither is there
any mystery about the matter. We
are informed by those in position to
know that the interest is being paid
by the National City Bank Of New
York as the fiscal agent of the old
Russian government, which still exists
in effect, as its successor has not been
recognized and its m ba ssador is still
on the job in WaShingt on In other
words. the legally constituted fiscal
agent having the money which was

can appraIse the value of labor agree
that there is no reason why women
should not receive every penny as
much as men
Everett w. Lord, n state director
Of the United States EMPLOYMENT
Service III Massachusetts. is one Of
those who considers women capable
OF earning high salaries. There is
not single reason in the world WHY
women should not receive as high
salaries as men. he asserts. 1T is
only prejudice which makes people
say that woman can't be worth an
$4,000 pOsition". AS an example. he
points to the achievements Of Ella
FIaGg Young. formerly superintendent
of schools in Chicago, who received
$4,000 a year and who was rated as
one of the leading educators in the
United States.
A prominent union labor leader
also holds to the opinion that women
should be recompensed on the same
basis As men, declaring: "Organizcd
la Dor stands for equal pay for equal
work and $4,000 is not too large a
salary for woman when she has the
ability to hold down an $4,000 job. If
she has the job that's proof that she's
worth the money!.
During the war, women who sub
stituted for mon in the munition fac
tories received high wages, higher in
fact than those whose places they
filed. There is a tendency among the
sex not to surrender the advantage
gained and for once in the history Of
industry woman is factor.
