 Following the salary increase de- naands of the teachers of the city comes the wage demand of earpen- ters, plumbers and painters. The carpenters demand an increase of 20 per cent. over the present wages. The wage now being received is $27 per week of A hours for inside work and s26 per week for outside work. 4 meeting of the master carpenters has been held but no decision has made public. This new schedule would mean that the carpenters would re- ceive $31.20 and $32 per week, to take effect January 15. It is also reported that the plumbers are seeking 20 per cent. increase to take effect May 1. Plumbers are now receiving 65 cents an hour for a 44-tour week, making l their wages s2s.60. If they receive the
 raise they desire the hour rate will go up to 7S cents. or $37.2e per week. It is thought that the painters will follow shortly with demands for an | increase but as yet nothing has been heard definitely. Most employers are paying $24.20 to their men for a A. hour week, but recent increases of the American Thread Company to l their painters brought their salay;es 1 up to $26.20 per week and 1t is | thought that the other painters will seek like amount, or a raise over 1 the old wages of 10 per cent
