NO SALARY INCREASE
FOR PHONE OPERATORS
New England System Sees
Living Costs Falling.

Boston, Dec. 1.-THE request OF the
telephone operators union for an in
crease in wages was denied to-day by
William r. Driver, Jr, general manager
Of the New England Telephone and Tele-
graph Company. who said his decision
was based on what appeared to be con-
elusive evidence of recession Of living
costs in 1921.
IF the coming months demonstrate
that l am wrong we can talk the matter
over" he added The statement said the
requests. if granted, would involve an
addition Of 100000 a year for OPP
orators alone. and II consideration Were
given also to other employees the in
crease would amount to S10,000.000 a
year or about so per cent. of the present
payrolls of the New England and the
Providence telephone companies, which
would make higher rates from telephone
subscribers necessary.
To-day the purchasing power of the
dollar is increasing" continued the
statement. land that has the effect of a
wage increase. provided wages are not
reduced as they have been and are be-
ing reduced in some industries. The Off
GERS OF the New England Telephone Com
pany have already announced their in
tention to maintain the present scale of
wages so long as II is possible to do so,
but the foregoing considerations make II
impossible to grant Increased wage
schedules at this time"

dill Mccormick of Illinois TO interpret
Frances needs to the Harding Admin
istration was voiced to-day at an in

French Journalists and parliamentary
ans. 1t was presided over by Louis

fairs Committee of the French Cham
Der OF Deputies.
Senator Mccormick stressed that as
long as Mr.. Wilson was President he,
as a member of Mr.. Hardings party,
could not discuss political questions
freely, but he asserted that the Amer
lean people to-day are inspired by the
old friendship for France"
I'VE confidently look for her triumph
in peace, just as she was invincible in
war" he said.
NJ. Barthou recalled Senator McCor-
micks visit to France during the war
and the indefatigable work he did for
France on his return to Washington.
He is Frances witness in peace, just
as he was in war;" he said

respondents association. presented to

MAKERS DENY BLAME.
FOR CLOTHING FIGHT.
Challenge LabOr's Charge
That Plans for Lockout Were
Ever Drawn.

The struggle between the Clothing
Manufacturers Association and the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers over
the attempt TO put the shops upon a
piece work basis. or a minimum pro-
duction scale. will begin in earnest to-
morrow morning. The manufacturers
reiterated their declaration yesterday
that a lockout did not exist, while the
workers went ahead with what they
said were plans for concerted defence
against the offensive which the en-
ployers have announced"
At the close of a general meeting of
the Clothing Manufacturers Association
William Bandler, president, said that re-
auctions of the price of clothes in the
spring would follow the introduction Of
the piece work system.
There are no orders on hand now I"
he said. but some manufacturers PROP
ably viii open as soon as the new
wage scale is announced Those who are
big enough to speculate and put material
into work on the chance of selling it
will be the only ones TO resume oper-
atoms There are a great many, of
course. who cannot afford TO speculate
and such manufacturers will try TO get
orders by using the lower cost as SELL
ing argument before they do any manu-
featuring"
Mr. Bandler said that the shops would
resume the. latter part of the week, and
that under the new wage scale the
workers would earn as much as those
similarly employed in Boston, Chicago,
Rochester and other manufacturing
cities
The association through Irving
Crane. secretary issued statement
denying that a lockout existed. Prac-
tically the full membership was present,
he said. and the charge was complete
~ and unequivocally denounced and de-
MED by all the members.
