! Another hard blow has been dealt

emy. by the new wage scale cut of
naval employees which has received
the approval OF Secretary of the Navy
DENLY and which will become effective

will be affected. Reductions will vary
from 10 to 20 percent for all classes
of mechanics and other classes of EN-
ployees, not paid on monthly basis.
The new schedules were prepared
by the departmental wage board,
which. had the subject under con-
sideration for several weeks, and the
reductions are uniform for similar
work at all naval posts. About two
months ago this class OF naval labor
was hard hit by the deprivation of the
bonus which they had been receiving
since the period of the war and also
the new five working day week.
Machinists, at navy yards. suffer a
wage cut from "a cents an hour to 73
cents an hour. and plumbers. receiv-
ing formerly 81 cents an hour. here
after will receive 76 cents an hour. In
general wages OF. skilled labor at the
local yard are reduced an average o:
Is. per cent Unskilled labor has been
reduced from As cents TO Al cents an
hour. The supervisory positions, such
as supervisors and foremen, have been
reduced one-third and in some offices

Less Than Railroad Trades
According to the report of the de-
partmental wage board of review. the
revised schedule will be. 4 cents an
hour less than prevailing wages for
railroad trades and 5 cents per hour
higher than those in shipbuilding
trades The board said the wages
recommended are As percent. higher
than pre-wa scales and estimated the
cost of living at so percent. higher
than in 1918.
A new plan for payment and classi-
fication of mechanics provides for one
general grade of the first class, speci-
flying that upon employment men shall
serve probational period of six
months prior to reaching the highest
pay classification of their trade. Ma
chinists will hold this first-grade rat

will be subject to discharge upon fail

Governor Tours Exhibits

From the orangeade mans booth
outside the gate to the farthest ex-
hibit buildings. humanity swarmed
like flies. Hundreds were at the gates
before six o'clock in the morning. BY
1890 the fair managers estimated that
there were 10000 sightseers on the
grounds, and the number rapidly
doubled itself as the afternoon sched-
ule progressed.
Governor Richie and his staff, ar
irving at the gates at 1890 o'clock,
were received by representatives of
the State Fair, the Agricultural So
ciety and the Maryland Agricultural
College.
Hospitable greetings met the dis
tinguished visitors on every side as
they pressed through the throng and
were escorted to the Fair Building,
where luncheon was served.
As a county fair is nothing il not
an informal event at which everybody
does just exactly as he pleases. rather
than as more pretentious persons
might wish, there was no formal
speechmaking at the luncheon.
