pubncans as well The battle was later
continued when Representative Mondel,
Wyoming, republican floor leader, an
nounced a plan for the house TO meet
tomorrow to receive report from the
immigration committee. This was OBJ
jccted 20 by Mr.. Garrett. who said the
republican members OF the immigration
committee had acted without first hav-
ing organized their committee. Demo-
cratic committee members had not been
selected, Mr.. Garrett asserted, urging

TRAMMELL ASKS
LAND FOR STATE
(BY GEORGE n. MANNINel

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator
Park Trammel introduced in the SEN
ate today a bill providing that the gov
ernment grant to Florida all federal
lands in the state for use of the public
schools of the state. He contends that
Florida never received the same liberal
donation of government lands for the
school funds that many other states
received. Florida has only received
one section of each township, he says,
while congress has donated two sec
tions of each township to several states
for public school aid, as we'll as grant
ing even additional acreages to some
other states.
The bill was referred to the public
land committee, where Senator Tram
nell will urge favorable action on it.

FORMS SPEAKERS
BODY OF REALTORS
Will Address Realty Groups
On Phases of Business
In United States.

A corps Of able speakers has been
recruited from the ranks of real
tors by Tom lngersOll, secretary
of the National Association of Real
Estate Boards for the purpose of
supplying the demands Of real es-
tate boards for competent men to
address meetings, according to the
National Real Estate Journal.
The growing popularity If week
ly board luncheons has brought
about IN ever-increasing demand
for speakers. As the number Of
available men in any community
competent to discuss realty prob
lens is necessarily limited. board
program committees at times are
hard pressed to find speakers.
Many realtors, experienced in til e
various phases of their profession
are available at present to discuss
live realty problems. They have not
been generally used in the past
for this purpose largely due to the
fact that boards have not had
definite information in regard to
the realtors that are obtainable
and the subjects which they are
most competent to discuss.
Boards in obtaining speakers
from this corps or bureau are as
sured that their meetings will be
addressed by men on subjects of
vital interest to realtors; that the
subjects will be presented byl men

Labor in Better
Shape Now Than
Before the War

Wage, scales throughout the
United States stun are nearly 100
per cent greater than in 1913, when
the cost of living began to be made
the basis for strikes for higher pay.
This holds true despite reductions of
scales by many big concerns and
lines of industry, according to gov
eminent officials,
Continuance OF Wartime scales in
a few lines of endeavor is holding
the nation back, II is contendcd, in
it's efforts to make speed toward
prosperity.
Workers generally are Ear better
off than before. Retail rood prices
are only 80 per cent above pre-war
levels. Taking into consideration
other necessities, the cost of living
has been reduced nearly 20 per cent
In the year. according to the labor
department
Average earnings throughout in
dustry now range from $1,000 to
Sl,lo0 a year This is for part time
of most of those now employed. The
average is increasing.
Study made by the labor depart
ment of the wage scales of cotton
mill workers is illustrative of the
general situation. Wages in this
industry have been reduced. per
haps, more drastically than in any
other. In some instances reductions
have run as high as % per cent.
But despite this the average of
wages per hour now is approximate
ly $50 per cent in excess of that in
1913. 1t also is 40 per cent more
than 1918, when mills were working
at top speed.
Average earnings Of the majority
of cotton mill operatives now. is
$3.50 a week. In cotton finishing
the average 10 nearly S22 a week.
Government officials believe un-
employment will be reduced to a
normal standard by spring. This
would mean a surplus of about l.
100000 workers, according to esti-
mates of Secretary of Labor Davis.
