One good thing ct least can be said to
the credit of the Legislature and that is, it
is not in the increase of salary mood.
Some who hold Office think it is only nee
eesary to get bill in for increase and it
will sure come. This may beso sometimes,
but not this year. Our big state expenses
and a million for our soldier boys forbid
increasing salaries, which are quite big
enough as they are.

isn't always necessary to have lawyer as
speaker, as this case shows.

WAGE SCHEDULE
Great Lakes Shipyard Workers
to Ask for twenty-five Per
Cent Increase.

TOLEDO, O., Sept. 1S.-Organiza-
tions affiliated with the Great Lakes
District Allied Shipbuilding Trades
Council have formulated a. new scale
of wages for all workers employed
in the shipbuilding industry of the
Great Lakes district. The new scale
will be presented this month to the
shipbuilders and will become opera
tive on Oct. IL.
The headquarters of the district
council is in Toledo, and 81 locals are
affiliated. The council comprises all
workers employed in the shipbuilding
industry.
shipyard workers now have what
is known as a sliding scale. and the
new increase asked will amount to
about 25 per cent.
The new scale to be drawn up will
be uniform in character as to hours
and conditions at all points through
out the district. This plan is believed
to be most desirable both to the men
and the employers, as all being in the
same competitive area it will create
more harmony and a better under
standing.
| It is not thought there will be a
strike, as many shipbuilders have al
ready expressed a willingness to sign
the new agreement.

program. A committee consisting of
Peter Schaeffer, Filing Munkeby and

subject of vocational training and
trade extension courses in the city

information that for every dollar ex-
pended by the Duluth school. board
for vocational training and trade ex-
tension to apprentices, learners and
tradesmen, the government and the
state would each match dollar. The
courses and methods of teaching must
comply with the provisions Of the act.
Night scohols have already been es-
tablished in the Washington, Lincoln
and Denfeld schools, with practical
tradesmen in charge Of the various
classes. An experienced printer teach

in charge of a machinist and so on.
Glasses are now open for several
trades. The board will open addition

ficient pupils to attend.
Since the assembly adopted the re-
port of the committee the local Paint
