ST HOUR FOR
BRICKLAYERS

Two important moves toward re-
ducing the cost Of erecting buildings
in Wilmington have been made.
At a meeting last night OF master
masons, in the Law Building, Ninth
and Market street, it was decided to
offer union bricklayers a fiat rate Of
81 an hour in place of s1.25.
At a meeting of Local Union, No.
634 Brotherhood of Painters, Dec
orators and Paperhangers, also held
last night in the new Labor Temple,
Tenth and Orange streets, a COM
mittee was named to negotiate with
the master painters with regard to
reducing pay from 30 to rs cents an
hour.
In making the offer Of 81 an hour
to the bricklayers the master masons
declared there would have to be a
reduction in wages to stimulate the
building trade. Following their
meeting in the Law Building, the
master masons adjourned to the La
Dor Temple. where they placed the
wage question before the union. Ac-
ton on the question probably will
be taken by the union next Monday
night. according to George Sauter,
secretary of the local union.
The committee named by the
painters local consists of Fred Mar
tin, William Prettyman and George
Smith. 1t has fun authority to ef
feet a settlement with the master
painters OF the wage question.

REDUCE COAL SUPPLY
Labor Union Requirements Are Pyra-
miding Cost, Says I'll. N. Taylor.


Washington. Jan. 27.-Labor union
requirement are "pyramiding costs in
tIea coal industry and reducing the
: able coal supply" a senate COM
r aa was told today by Harry N
Taylor. a Kansas City coal operator,
opposing the Calder coal regulation
bill.
I'm the old days, under job !
Mitchell, miners contracts were kept,
he said, but since 1910 the miners
union has been abusing the power the
younger members have secured. ana
the older generation has died off The
present miners are slaves to radical
leaders who control the immense fund
built up under the check-off system"
Mr.. Taylor estimated that between
December, 1918, and December, 1920.
mines under his control had lost
1,53s,335 tons of production by rea-
son of strikes, layoffs and similar diff
ficulties. One strike in Kansas City.
he said, made the production cost rise
from $2.7S to 1901 a ton
THAT was when Alexander Howat,
of whom you may have heard, tied
US up from August, 1919, to January.
out that Howat has called 705 strikes
in individual mines during forty-five
months, which cost the miners $3,-
S66,780 in wages, and got them $3.50.
These strikes, our record shows, were
| called because Howat was in JAIL be-
cause an I. w. w. got hung in Butte !;
because they did not like the entry
way; because it was too cold; because
| of any thing"
Senator Walsh, Democrat, Massa-
| chusetts, suggested that the disp1ac-
ing of English speaking people in the
| mines with Slavs and eastern and
southern Europeans might have
caused the trouble.

ASKS REGULATION OF BARRIERS
Senator johnson Urges Amendment {
Present State Law.

Only four bills were presented In

fore the move was made to form

The four bills were as follows:
No. 225. by Senator Johnson, of

ing means of confirming the own
erShip of motor cars by making it
compulsory, in the case of the sale of

recorded bill of sale from the former
owner along with the car. 1t is the
intention of the bill to make the de
lection of theft of automobiles easier
by it's application. It is a simple
matter to compel the driver Of a car
suspected of having stolen it, totpro-
duce. his bill of sale and. thereby pnoVe
his ownership of the car. Asrpady
Identification is also secured theR4zfhe

BACHEL ORS SAFE STAGED ROBBERY
Kill Bill Providing Tax of SO

Motion Picture Censorship
Board to Remain in i. G..

! Friends of the Finley bill, which
would create the office of state ath-
letic director and give that official the
right to supervise boxing matches and
exhibitions in Kansas. see a bright fu-
ture before the measures as result of
the recommendation of the senate
committee on federal and state affairs,
that the bill be passed.
The fight game which intrigued
the Yank in France. and which he
has sadly missed since returning to
Kansas, may be revived under state
continues.
Slight Changes in Bill.
Some slight amendments were made
in the bill by Senator Finley, its au-
thor, before it was recommended for
passage by the committee. The amend
ments do not interfere with the main
purposes of the bill. ~
4 The same committee showed pity
ing heart for the bachelors of the
state when they summarily killed the
Ridgway bill for the application of a.
$40 a year tax to the unmarried men
of the state.
Approve Bounty Measure.
They are death on crows and pock-
bill which sets a bounty on these
pests. Senate Bill No. ), which is de-
signed to set the standards of excel
lence which must be attained by
shorthand reporters who are employed
in courts, and providing for their eX-
animation and certification by the
state, was passed with amendments.
Senate Bill No. 80. which dealt with
the same subject. was killed.
Kill Movie Bill.
The committee killed the bill which
provided for the return of the moving
picture censorship board to Topeka
from Kansas City, Kan, where it is
now located. The censorship board
will remain in Kansas City, if the SEN
ate follows the lead of its committee
on federal and state affairs.
Three of the house bills which have
been passed by that body and notified
to the senate, have been passed upon
by the committee to which they were
referred. One, regarding the training
and registration of nurses. was given
la recommendation that it be passed
by the committee on temperance and
hygiene in the senate.
The senate committee on federal and
Estate affairs passed favorably upon a
house bill which empowers townships
to acquire, own and maintain public
cemeteries. and also upon the Harring-
ton house bill which makes Novem Der
II a legal holiday.
It now remains for the senate to fol-
low it's committee and the house to
pass it and for the governor to sign

BIG GATHERING


/
tain a high standard of harmony The
one impending fight is for the club
presidency.
Wilbur Hawk, well known Atchi-
son newspaper man and for number
of years active in politics in the First
district, is seemingly holding the lead
in his race for the club presidency.
Hawk has been coming to Topeka for
Kansas Day Club dinners for a num-
Der of years. And always big dele
cation of Atchison Republicans have
come with him.
Dr. c. W. Jones of Olat11e, former
chairman of the johnson county Re
behind his candidacy. Efforts were
being made today to reach an agree
ment among the Hawk-Jones forces
and prevent a fight on the floor.
County Attorney w. e. Broa die of Ed
wards county, has been mentioned for
| the place.
The business session of club mem
| bers will be held Saturday afternoon
| probably in representative hall.
Banquet at $3.50.
. Both men and women will sit at
| the banquet in Masonic temple Satur-
day night. Feeding of the multitude
will begin at $50 o'clock. The Modoc
club of Topeka and quartet from
| Hays will sing for the banquet crowd.
T When President J. H. Lee and his
| district vice presidents conferred on
| the 1921 program, they reduced the
| speaking list to a minimum. In con-
sequence a short, snappy and interest
| ing speaking program seems certain.
| President Lee will preside at the ban

| There are but four other speakers on
the program this year.

Governor Arthur NJ. Hyde of Mis-
souri, is the guest of honor of the club
