of business in the steel industry had
more than doubled in the last ninety

Saving Wage for Their Dar-

Mr.. KELLER ALSO SPEAKS
Representative 0'Brien Sees Need of
Increase in City's Fire Fight
ing Forces.

Members of the fire department are
entitled to more than a living wage
Secretary of Labor James J. Davis
told members of the local department
at the annual smoker of the city fire
fighters association, held in the
crystal room in Ebbitt Hotel last
night
'They are entitled to a saving
wage" he added;s"a wage that will
enable them to lay aside something
for rainy day."
Speaking of firemen, Secretary Davis
said:
Lauds Work Of Firemen.
I'VE ought all to keep him in mind,
and without the reminder of a dread
full experience. We ought all to be
friends to~the man who keeps his
sleepless vigils over everything we
have and are every minute of every
day and night. No man does more
heroic work for so little money and
SO little credit. 1t is time we gave a
little thought to the neglected guard
ian of US all.
Other toilers enjoy the tribute they
richly enough deserve. The man in
the mill can see to it that he is prop
erly paid. and that his hours of work
are regular and reasonable. When
the whistle blows he goes home to his
family, and his evenings are his own
for enjoyment, his nights are for rest
full sleep. But the fre-fghting force
we keep on the job for twenty-four
hours of the day. Every hour Of the
night some faithful squad is on
watch. some fireman is on the alert. .
And this man takes what we are
pleased to pay him-and how disap-
stances where the sense of unbearable
Injustice has driven him to object!
The man in the mill demands safety
and security at his task. The evening
whistle in his ear means rest To the
fireman the whistle or the bell may
mean the deadly risk of his life. at
any and every hour of the twenty
four. Yet whoever heard of a fireman
quitting his job? Whoever heard of a
fireman deserting his duty?"
Another Wage Plea.
Representative Charles F. X O'Brien
member of the District committee
said he heartily agreed with Secretary
Davis in the matter of giving the fire.

do his duty in the matter of bringing
it about.
The speaker declared that there are
not enough firemen in the local de-
partment to properly protect the Dis
trict OF Columbia, nor are there
enough houses. Quarters of the men
need vast improvements. he added, and
the men are not sufficiently remuner-
ated.
