ROTARY CLUB FOR

After lively debate at the noondav
luncheon Of the Hammond Rotary o1uh
the daylight savings plan as adopted
by the Hammond city council in con
formity with similar action by the
cities or Chicago and Gary was en-
dorsed BY practically a unanimous
vote
While i was admitted that the nlan
played havoc with railway time Ia bies
and schedules it was conceded that the
benefits far outshown the disadvant-
ages The hope was expressed that
the plan could again be made country
vide in spite Of the opposition of the
farmers and others.
The announcement was made that
Governor McCray had vetoed the Ham
mond bill that created a separate util-
tiles taxing district for the purpose Of
making # possible to re-habiIitate the
Hammon water works. The only ex-
planatien made was that 1t created a
rad precedent by permitting a muni-
ciPany owned public utility that was
not able to finance its own re-habiIita-
tion and expansion to do so by taxa

WAGES THE
MAIN FACTOR
IN SITUATION
Building Trades Decline To
Accept New Wage
Schedule.

Prospects for the much needed build
ing boom in the Calumet region are dark
for this year. There are plenty of
people willing TO build houses but indi-
cations now are that little viii be done
in 1921
In canvassing the situation the fact
or which stands out most prominently
Ii holding up construction work is the
refusal OF the building tradesmen to
agree to any rate lower than the present
wage of s125 an hour Efforts have
been made during the winter to bring
about an agreement whereby the men
will accept new schedule based on 81
an hour but ell such negotiations have
been f1at failures.
The men argue that the cost of Iiv-
ing has not come down sufficiently to
warrant their accepting a cut in wages
The general public disagree with the
tradesmen on this for they know that
prices Of food and clothing have fallen
10 lower levels. much lower in many in
stances than they we're when men were
receiving 81 an hour It Is argued that
the increase in rentals where families
live In rented homes. has offset the de-
crease In other living costs. This may
be true but 1t is condition brought
about by this very slump in the building
industry.
Property owners have increased their
rents this year bur ~2ey- "a It in the
belief that the present house shortage
would leave the renters no choice but to
pay the advance Only marked pick
up IN house building, permitting more
people to own their homes and bring
ing about some competition between
owners of rental property can effectuaI-
" curb the rent-hog
Practically no building has been done
this winter. a remarkable season III
which building could have gone on with
out Interruption. Practically nothing
is in sight for the spring and summer
X is said on good authirity that of a
new wage agreement could be signed
based on a rate of 81 per hour that by
April every man that wanted work
in the building trades could be EN-.
ployed
If the contractor has the work ahes

and passes the rest on to the Iahorer
and material men. He can do {his as
long as the public is willing TO pay the
price, but as soon as the public decided
that costs are too high building stops
1t is known that one project for 100
new houses In Hammond this spring has
been called of merely because the
craftsmen refused to work for 81 an
hour.
The question which now confronts the
building tradesmen is vRether they
wish work this year at 81 an hon in
stead Of remaining Idle while waiting
to get s1.25 an hour. They have g
