The Day In Davenport

POStOffice Employees Ask Raise
Davenport postoff1ce employees are
expected to follow the lead Of the
Letter Carriers association in
Joint demand for an increase in
wages. A mass meeting of all the
postal employees Of the Office will be
held, probably Sunday, to perfect
plans for presenting the demand
The employees are contemplating de-
manding an increase of at least so
per cent, it was learned yesterday.
This increase, they say. would en-
able them to meet increased living
expenses and would place their
wage about on par with the pre-
war expenses.
Two Are ExOnerated-Mrs. Lu-
Gle Smith and her son, Howard
Mauch./ were exonerated of any
completely in a charge of larceny
by embeZzlement in connection
with the sale of an automobile be-
longing to Albert Burk of Rock Is
land at the conclusion of prelim-
mary hearing before Justice Of the
Peace W. W. Scott. John Heinrich,
who was charged jointly with Mrs.
Smith and her son with the crime.
was held to await the action of the
September grand jury. His bond
was fixed at $1,000.
No Council SessiOn-Despite the
fact that the 7-cent carfare has al
ready become effective in Illinois,
no meeting of the Davenport city
council will be held on the question
before Monday, says Mayor Lee ].
Dougherty. A number of aldermen,
it is claimed, have slipped out of
the city on convenient errands,
making it impossible to get a ma
iority vote on the resolution au-
thorizing the publication of the no
tice that the fare will be increased.
