about the pirates, the jewels and the
mystery. So every one listened closely,
when he lifted his voice to tell the pun

for doing away with the sailors and
passengers of the fine large ship.

We fairies cannot imprison them by

Leave that to me, said Magisco
mysteriously. You have passed SEN

be shut up. But where and how-that
is job for my magic. Leave 1t to
me-

punishment of the pirates TO Magisco b

do.
'Magisco told the fairies they could
helm him get alI the pirates into this
very Cave ~ tbe Jewels. but he told
them. too. that after they got the pi-
rates into the cave they must fee and
not look back lest perhaps, his magic
should catch them,
"The fairies wondered how they could

Washington, May 14-Agents of the
bureau of labor statistics, department
Of labor, have begun work on the col
lection Of accurate ana up to date data
on living costs. in order that reliable
information may be available for wage
adjustments.
Perhaps the principal labor prob
lem today-at least from the employ
ers, standpoint. is this very matter Of
wage adjustment. The employer,
though he lacks definite evidence on
the point. is nevertheless certain that
living costs are diminishing and wage
reductions are going into effect gen
orally. The employees on the whole.
feel that the adjustments are being
made arbitrarily and with little regard
to lowered expenses in the family
budget. and the result is friction and
i'll feeling.
Plan Probe In 80 Cities.
The bureau of labor statistics will
send investigators into about thirty
cities. to pursue inquiries along the
same lines as those followed during the
war and after the armistice. These
investigators will collect actual fig
ures as to family expenses, covering

Drastic Auto
Stage Laws
Promulg gated

Olympia, Wash. May IA. .-Strin-
gent rules governing the operation

promulgated by the state depart
ment of public works. The new
regulations will go into force June
10 and provide among other things
that no drivers shall smoke or use
tobacco in any form, drink intoxi-
eating liquor. or show evidences Of
bad moral character while driving
stage or bus.
1t is also ordered that each
vehicle shall carry liability insur-
ance of 5000 for each passenger
carried. and no stage shall operate
unless it carries sign, Insured
Carrier"
Each stage shall also be equip
ped with light in the inside top,
one extra tire, non-skid chains.

a sign on the front giving the
route covered.
Stages cannot be operated with
out receiving a permit from the
department of public works, and no
operator can discontinue service
without permission. Tariffs charg-
ed and routes covered must be filed
with the department and all acci
dents involving injuries to persons
or $50 or more loss to property
must be promptly reported.
Overcrowding of stages is pro-
hibited, it being made illegal to
place more passengers in any
stage than the number mentioned
in tho aDnIicatiOn
In addition the regulations pro-
vide that no person shall sit on
the right hand of stage drivers,
and that baggage shall not extend
more than eight inches beyond the
side of the car.
Before a stage can be operated,
the owner must obtain from the
department a certificate of neces-
sity and convenience. This costs
SO for a stage carrying up to
eight passengers and 80 cents for
each passenger capacity beyond
that number.

Garment Workers Plan
Believed Solution of In
dustrial Problem; Con-
ditions Abroad Are
Regarded as Warning
Against | Labor Attacks

An interesting experiment connected
with wage reduction but more import
ant as measure for stabilizing in
dustry, has been undertaken in Cleve-
land, where the garment manufactur-
ers and the Iptsrastiopalsss,2Rd ,2Rd,askrial
an agreement for q wage reduction of
9R to 1914 per cent on various jobs,
on the condition that the manufactur-
ers guarantee 40 weeks employment
during the year, in two periods of 20
weeks each, with two thirds pay for
any weeks in those periods when en-
ployment is not offered. The employ
ers must provide fund to cover this
guarantee and the workmen receive
one weeks vacation with pay. The
agreement has been held by many per
sons to constitute great advance in
the stabilization of the industry and
the solution of labor problems.
The prospective revolutionary moves
in Great Britain are considered in the
labor unions as plainly due to malad-
Justment OF wages to living costs and
while the American Federation of La
Dor feels that its withdrawal from the
labor internationale has been justified
by conditions abroad, these same CON
ditions are regarded as warning
against unwise attacks on labor in this
country.

u. S. TO PROBE LIVING COSTS
AS BASIS OF WAGE ADJUSTMENT

every necessity Of life and making fair
allowances for the requirements of re-
creation. education and health.
The work will be completed. it is
expected, not later than June /. for
the department recognizes that this is
hurry up job and that in many parts
of the country industrial peace may
depend largely upon the rapidity and
efficiency with which it is performed
Workmen are much more ready to ac-
cept reductions. If reductions must
come, when they can be convinced that
the purchasing power of their wages
will not be reduced
During the war, the adjustment of
wages to living costs was determined
on the basis of figures collected by
the bureau and enforcement was pos
sible through the war labor board and
other government agencies. Most of
the government supervision has now
been withdrawn. but the division of
conciliation in the department ordin-
arily has little trouble in bringing
about voluntary agreements in dis
putes. if both parties can be convinced
that justice is being done them.
Some Items Increased.
1t is certain that wage reductions
will be resisted vigorously unless
workmen are shown that their stand
ard Of living is not being lowered.
The employer considers reductions
in food costs and clothing costs ample
reason for cutting wages in drastic
fashion. But while these items have
been lowered, rents, car fares. light
and heat, and other items less promi-
nent. vet bulking very large, have re-
nained in general, stationary, or have
increased. The workman is fully con-
scious of this and the data obtained by
the bureau of labor statistics will prob
ably help greatly in interpreting the
workmens view to the employer, and
vice versa.
