POST OFFICE
 EMPLOYEES ARE ON ANXIOUS SEAT Eagerly Awaiting Action in Con- gress on Bill for Increase
 of Salaries. SENATOR'S FAVOR BILL Good Effect of Hearings Held by Congressional Committee
 in Many Cities.

The post office employees have been awaiting the action of Congress with a good deal of interest during the past week The bill for the increase of the salaries of all post office employees 35 per cent. has been under consideration in the post office committee of the U. s. Senate and while the post office men have the assurance of the senators that they are favorable to the principle of the proposed measure, he final action on the matter has been deferred until \mOre information was obtained from the post office department. The House of Representative has a measure al lowing to postal employ ees a flat in which has been passed along to the senate which hQdy referred 1t to the post office committed This committee has been urged from influential quarters to change the flat increase to the 35 per cent. increase proposed by Senator Moses of New Hampshire and the de- Alterations over the. matter have taken Up several weeks and it is now thought that the report may be put off until the peace treaty is disposed of in Novem- Der.
 The committee of congress appointed to investigate post office salaries has been holding meetings all over the Coutnry and it is confidently stated that the information gleaned by the commit tee has already convinced the members that the war burdens imposed upon the postal employees by the failure to pro vide salaries i'll any sort of ratio to the salaries paid to positions in outside employment, are not Justified and must have early remedial action.
 The cOn101aintS from all 0artc of the country of the privations endured be- cause of the low salaries paid have ha 1 a salutary effect upon the committee
 Advices have been received from Washington that there will be no chance of the Senate comrnitte reporting out the post office legislation until the peace treaty is out of the way It is conf- dently predicted that there is no possi- bilitv of that event before November
 The advocates of the McKe1ler bill for the retirement of rost office ern- plOyees on an annuity are sure that the bill will become a law during this ses sion of congress owing to the advance | i'll public opinion during the last year | and the purpose that seems to be fixed l to do the right thing by the sa1aried | workers who have borne a considerable | higehr ratio of the wars burdens than possibly any other class not actually | engaged in the fighting.
 The mental strain of carrying or the 1 work during the absence of the men who | and the men who were | drafted, as well as the demands for and charitable undertak- i ings, have been borne with fortitude | while necessary but the certain trend of l educated opinion at the preesnt time is l

 A real Whizzer has been selected to head the Palace vaudeville bill for Monday, Tuesday and "Wednesday. This is the brand new musical comedy which it's producers have quite appropriately given the title of "A Cure for the B1:!es." The prescription, which calls for real laughing tonic, is adrnir1is- tered by Dan Healy and Virginia Elliott as attending physicians with as pretty bunch of chorus girlies as could be gathered acting as nurses.
 Olson and Johnson are couple of clever chaps who call themselves Like able Lads Loaded With Laughs" and they have a right to the title as their almost unlimited supply of new songs end lively comedy conversation will show.
 Eddie Foley and Belle La Tour in their Bit of Musical Comedy" are 'an- other combination right happily placed on this bill.
 Allen and his dog Taxi present "A Touch of High Life" with the inte11i- gent and highly trained Taxi acting as valet.
 Still another act on the bill, and one that will set things rolling in the live Hest manner, is that of Frank and Mi1t Britton, the syncopating xy1ophonists.
 On Thursday Friday and Saturday great, punching dramatic act heads the bill This is "On the High Seas," tense and altogether exciting piece of wonderfully staged melodrama. "On the High Seas" is production by Langdon Mccormick, that wizard of scenic spectacles whose great talent is responsible for Forest Fires" an act that will never be forgotten by Palace audiences,
 The screen feature for the last three days, of the week is "Redhead" with Alice Brady and a cast that includes the name of many well known picture players. It is a picture we'll meriting the attention of picture lovers which will undoubtedly be forthcoming owing to the recognized talent and wide popu- larity of its star.
 Other vaudeville acts for the last half of the week will be Eckert \and Moore in the skit "Oh, Cap"; Andre Sisters and Poole in their terpsichorean sym phony Dotson, known as "The Black Stopper" and the Alvera Sisters in an acrobatic dance novelty having many sensational features.

Washington, Sept. 6.-Fundamenta1 changes in the civil service law and i'll the relations of employees to the man. agement of the government depart ments, including improved conditions for the workers and extension of the rec1assifcation work to the entire ser vice throughout the country, will be sought from congress as result of the third annual convention of the National Federation of Federal Employees, which has just completed its sessions in San Francisco.
