- Charles J. Columbus secretary of
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association, nearly caused a row yes
terday afternoon when he suggested
to the conference fixing a minimum
weekly wage for laundry workers
that these girls could purchase
dresses or suits as low as S29,75.
Columbus appeared before the con-
ference bringing with him several
dresses and suits, to testify that $35.
the amount prepared in a clothing
budget for laundry workers, was en-
tirely too high. that dresses Or suits
could be purchased for less.
II wouldn't be seen in It," remarked
one colored girl when Columbus pre-
sented as an exhibit a suit priced at
$29.75. Similar remarks were made
when Columbus brought out dresses
and suits as low as $16.9S.
The conference some months ago
set $14.50 as a minimum weekly wage
for laundry workers. The District

wage and the conference Is now en-

OF strong men, Il can almost domi-
nate the course OF the House. The
chairman of the committees which
have had charge Of appropriation
bills may in some cases want to go on
the Appropriations Committee, but II
is not assumed that any member VIII
be allowed to be chairman of another
great committee and to be on Appro-
priations also.
The attitude of the enlarged COM
mittee toward the District, and espe-
ciaily toward the half and half plan.
becomes Of the utmost importance for
District residents: II the enlarged
committee is hostile to the half and
half principle, II will be extremely
difficult to have that policy restored.
Congressman James w. Good, OF
Iowa, Is the chairman OF the House
appropriations committee, and he will
be chairman of the enlarged commit
tee. 1t Is understood Mr.. Good will
offer to resign as chairman Of the
committee in view OF the change in
the rules, but that his colleagues will
insist on him remaining.
COMMITTED TO ECONOMY.
Good has acquired valuable expert
ence in the course OF his long ser
vice on the appropriations commit
tee and in the course of his service
as chairman. He is committed to q
program of economy and the cutting
down of expenditures as a first ster
toward the reduction Of taxation.
