The Senate Will Put in a Bonus
For Government Employees
By BILL PRICE.

When the legislative executive and judicial appropria
ton bill goes back the House it will have the $24O bonus
for Federal and District employees firmly rensated that
petty attacks upon in the House conference will fall
absolutely fiat 1t will not be surprising II the Senate
increases the bonus above $40 as should do especially
for underpaid employees who in helpless hopeless STU
alton the salaries and bonus they are now receiving.
There few, if any, twofor-hve statesmen IN the
Senate and that body will do the right thing The ire
ducble minimum of right is the restoration OF the $40
bonus the Senate should fit to add than this
to the lower grades of salaries it will do something the
whole country will uphold The purpose OF Congress now
appears be set toward reducing by many thousands the
number of Federal employees after July That means that
those who remain must work harder than ever often put
ting in overtime for which they will receive no pay
There good deal of pure bunk in the charge that
the point of order would have been made in the House
had not the National Federation of Federal Employees
sought raise the bonus to $780, That organization did
right in seeking that much What is hurting some Con
gressmen is that federation keeping tab the records
of those who bitterly attack Federal employees on all occa
sons and show disposition to do what square by or
for them.
If the federation should ever overstep the bounds in
trying politically nure Congressman who have gone the
limit of fairness the organization will suffer- but when it
seeks to protect itself against the meanes sort OF on
slauyhts by political retaliation it is well within It's rights
The federation has already been factor in aiding IN the
removal of statesmen whose prejudces cheap and
worse mentates were small Let it continue this work
within bounds.
Neither big Democrats nor big Republicans in the Sen
going to stand for policy OF paying anything less
than living wage to workers for the Government They
NAV agree for of economy, to keep the at
point that strain upon good men and women to exist
which thew should do but it's certainty that the miser
able little lob pulled in the House will not be affirmed in the
Senate.

are not self-reliant and all women
are not clinging. There's scarce
ly an adjective that couldn't be
applied to some man or some
woman of your acquaintance.
Each child born into the world is a
blend of both man and woman,
and the girl child is just as apt
to inherit her fathers traits as
her mothers, while the son of the
family may embody his mothers
characteristics almost entirely
That's why one law for men or one
rule for women has been such a
mistake in the past. That's why
the world has now been pretty
generally converted to the theory
of the equality of the sexes. An
other generation will see even
greater strides in correct thinking
along this line.

low my own. This is a sore point

looking, has a splendid position, and
could give me a good home. This fact
makes me care more for him as he
has had to work for it all. do
not feel that | can be happy with
out him, and yet II may be my duty
to do so, when my parents feel as
they do about. Do you think this
would mar our happiness? Should
explain to my friend why / hest
tate about marrying him? This j
do not like to do on account OF
hurting his feelings. I have had
plenty OF time to think this over
and yet cannot come to any de-
cision. Please tell me what is best
to do. WORRIED.
Which do you want to marry
an arbitrary thing called social
position" or a real, live, self
reliant, successful man? Are you
going to penalize this man who
loves you and whom you love for
something he cannot help?
cannot see how you can eX-
plain why you hesitate without
wounding him unnecessarily and
probably losing him entirely. III
it were anything he could help or
change, | would advise straight
forward talk. But he cannot alter
the situation and would probably
be terribly disappointed In you to
find that you even entertained
thoughts Of the difference in your
social position. Social position Is
not one of the real, unchanging
things of life. Ten years from
now, he may have made his social
position better than yours. Go
back even one generation in the
families who hold the highest po-
sitions in the world OF wealth and
society. What do you find? Take
John ID. Archbold or instance. He
started as a helper on a canal
boat.
No. my dear, social position is
too easily bought nowadays to be
worth sacrificing a worthwhile
man like the one you describe
However. no one can decide this
question for you but yourself. II
you are a social butterfly whose
god is dress and money and invi-
tauons TO certain houses, you
would not be happy in such a mar
riage, II. however, you have
reached the stage where one dis
covers that a certain few funda-
mentals form the real desideratum
In life, you will probably choose
the man and not the empty position
In society.
