CiRlSrOi,AL. Canal Zone. Dec. IS.
Thousands of Americans employ

sands OF miles from home. are suf-
fering from the wave OF discomfort
that has swept the world since the
war.
Although life I'm the canal zone ID
now n paradise compared TO that life
which the early builders OF the canal
led. there is great dissatisfaction
with tho administration and the
treatment OF the employees. Some Of
fact that these employees are living
In the heat Of the tropics and no far
from home that their country's View
point does not reach them.
Every visitor to the zone gets the
whisperinRs OF discomfort. There Ia
widespread propaganda. rumors that
the canal IN not a SUCCESS and intima-
tlons that one should see the back
alleys OF the canal.
The employees want more pay. They
feel that they have been forgotten.
While government employees In the
United States have been given In
creases tho zone employees have not
been given proportionate increases.
They declare they are entitled TO
greater pay for their service In the
tropics. FAR from home, forHctful of
the fact that they are dwelling In
comfortable government houses at
nominal rents. while employees In tho
states are fighting for living quarters.
Food at Cost.
Tho zone employees buy their food
and supplies from n commissary at
prices which are not much above
cost. These oommissaries carry every
necessity Of life and many OF the lux
uries and the prices are amazing 10
one who has lust come from the
states. Yet there IL Dissatisfied ion
with tho Commissaries. and cries that
the prices are too great.
Many of the zone employees have
been here for years; they are proud
of their work and feel an ownership

prople, and not tho canal zone p"O-
Ulc own and paid for the canal Per-
haps It is this forgetfulnoss which al

Although the rumblinRs OF discon-
