BUILDERS WILL NOT ACT NOW
ON HIGHER CARPENTER WAGE

master builders say that while they are
unanimous in their desire to deal fairly
and eQuitably with the carpenters. they
cannot enter into an agreement for an
increased wage at this time. in view of
the effort being made by the District
Commissioners. through the central
Stabilization committee, to stabilize
building opera tionS.
They say that to grant an increase
now not only would be discourteous to
the Commissioners and the stabilization
committee, but would also be i'll advised.
1t is anticipated by these builders that
the final report of the central committee
will be published on or before May Is.
and recommendations that may be con-
tanned therein become availab BILE TO both
builders and carpenters to assist them
in drawing up an intelligent wage agree
ment Meantime. they say. the prevail
ing scale of wages for carpenters in the
District of Columbia is recognized by
the master builders at 20 cents per hour,
or So per day

that at Il meeting of the wage commit
tee of the carpenters union and one
representing the builders. April % il
was agreed. that no action be taken un-
til a report is received from the central

H. N. Bake IN ALASKAN
WATERS

Prof. Bake will be remembered as
principal of the Peshastin public
school up to two years ago, when
he enlisted in the navy and took a
course in the naval training school in
the Washington University. He is
now an ensign and aboard the sub
chaser 80 in Alaskan waters, from
where he writes to his friend, F. j.
Wright, of Peshastin. The following
paragraph is taken from his letter:
"Of all the habits and ways of this
life that appeal to me as the most
wonderful experience, the one that
towers above all others is this--no
matter where we are, be it at the
navy yard or at these northern bays,
whether in latitude 10 degrees or 90
degrees, with all the extreme differ
ences in climate and scenery-we al
ways sleep in the same bed, eat at
the same table, walk the same deck,
in short we never leave the front
porch of our own naval home, the
good ship 80. Imagine yourself sit
ting down in your dining room and
having the world pass before you in
a never ceasing panorama. At break
fast you are moving out of some
beautiful anchorage. At noon you
return to the same chair for dinner
and as you look out the window again
you see smooth blue sea dancing
and sparkling as the sun throws ten
million sunbeams into its calm and
CLASSY surface. In the still of the
evening, after hard day of work and
worry, you go out on the porch and
look out over a perfectly quiet pool
of water where you have dropped
anchor until morning. AS you sit
there you admire the colorings in the
west as the sun goes to rest, you no.
tice the dusk gather along the heav-
ily wooded shorelines until gradually
the last reflected rays of sunlight are
crowded toward the center of the
pond, and finally the rule of day gives
way to the regime of night; one by
one, as by some unseen hand, the
stars are lit in the heavens and COM
mence a friendly game of "twinkle;"
you hear the distant boot of an owl

and the PARKWAY honk of the ducks
as they come to rest for the night
you heave a happy sigh as your
spirits imbibe their fill of Gods Won
derful peace and solitude-a feeling
of implicit trust in great protecting
spirit acts as a healing balm to your
mind and soul, all battered and tired
by the worries and cares of a busy
day, and makes you lapse into a spir-
itual reverie where trouble and dis
cord have no part. Use your most
active imagination and picture your
home on a huge barge floating from
place to place and you will get in a
small way what I mean. 1t is all
surely wonderful and | hope the day
will come when we can get yacht
and make this thrip together. l can
imagine nothing so desirable as trip
with a party of about 10 to 20 of us
spending a couple of months up here
in an 80 foot launch"
