Indicates prospective wage, none
being employed at present
Question at once arose as TO what
constituted a prevailing wage"
Councilman McNabb said he had
been told the United States Supreme
Court had held that where the rates
OF wages paid unorganized could not
be determined those Of organized
labor should be taken as prevail
ing"
Charles M. Ralston, OF the labor
delegation, maintained It would be
useless to look up the prevailing
rates OF wages paid in Wilmington
today because such rates should be
taken as OF the dates in August and
September when the marine terminal
and library contracts we're signed.
Councilman McNabb said that while
he believed "City Solicitor Satterth-
waite to be a thoroughly conscient-
ious lawyer" he did not see as his
opinion would be worth anything.
What was needed. he added, was an
| opinion by some properly consti-
tuted" tribunal. IT'S somebody's
duty TO have this law tested" he
declared.
In reply to questions by James o.
Kane. Of the labor delegation, Pres
ident Ward explained he had been an
empioye OF the dupont Engineering
! Company on war work plants. but
had been connected with the dupont
Company proper since May. 1919.
He further explained that he was
only an ex-ohicio member OF the
committee which called on Mr.
Pierce by virtue OF his position as
Council president.
Attention previously had been d.
rected to the fact that clause con-
taining the provisions OF the eight
hour law had been inserted recently
In the contract for the marine ter
mlnals. Mr.. Kane made the point
that II this were the case 1t was up
to Council TO see to It that the law
was enforced"
"Are you going to try to fiim-nam
us and let the City Solicitor bunco
your" he demanded with warmth.
Councilman Abrahams brought
out the point that seventeen states
had eight-hour laws, OF which only
four had been passed on by courts.
Here Mr.. Long. OF the labor dele
cation. declared: 1T is the duty OF
City Council to insist that more than
25 cents an hour be paid to labor on
the harbor work, as that Is not a
, living wage" Several others OF the
labor delegation echoed this senti-
, ment.
! Councilman Mulvena, who had
. been silent throughout the discus
, sion. advised that Council and the
, labor men wait until Mr.. Satterth.
waite had turned in his opinion to.
r night and then proceed to enforc'
2 the law IL Il is held constitutional
! Mr.. McNabb expressed the opinion
Z that the law would be held consti'
I tutional by Mr.. Satterthwaite.

that If was a good golf player you d

The light in her eyes at this made
his heart bound unanimously. But he

Folweu looked at Beatrice anxious
ly, sadly. Then to his intense surprise
and joy, he saw a wonderful light
come into her eyes.
'.Oh, Hod," she cried, "only a real
man could make a confession like that.
But just as things were getting SO
very interesting there came an inter
ruption. Folwell's caddy suddenly ap-
peared from behind a nearby hazard.
Say, lady" said the caddy briskly.
Il just fooled Mr.. Folwell here so as
needs to make a great golf player
confidence. So I told him that dope
about the vacuum ball. There amt
such a thing. He used an ordinary
ball. But he did SO good because he
had confidence. Look >herel"
The caddy drew forth a ball which
FolWen recognized as the one he had
used Quickly the caddy cut it open
with his knife Only the regulation
center was revealed
Folwell gazed at Beatrice and smiled
happily at the light in her eyes

Possible!" he exclaimed with supreme
confidence.

Dorothy Dix Talks
BY DOROTHY DIX
Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.
Tact.

Tact.
A school girl asks me if I will tell
her what tact is, and how she can &C
quire it.
why, my dear, tact is just the gold
en- rule put into action. 1t is doing
unto others as you would have them
do unto you. It is saying to other
people the agreeable little things that
you would like them to say to you. 1t
is showing unto others the courteous
little attentions that it would please
you to death to have other people
show to you. 1t is keeping off the
grass of other peoples little preju-
dices and peculiarities as you would
like them to keep off of yours.
Tact is the ultimate expression of
good breeding, good manners and
good feeling.
Tactful people are those who always
make you feel comfortable and at ease
in their presence, and pleased with
yourself. They never irritate you nor
antagonize you. They never wound
They never introduce their own opin-
ions, unless it is necessary, and when
they do they never try to force them
upon you.
They are just as loyal to their be-
liefs as you are to yours, but they ex-
rancor, and makes you feel that intel
ligent people may disagree on their
point of view without calling each
other names.
There are two ways, the right way
and the wrong way, of doing even the
right thing.
Haven't you had people give you
things in a way that made you want
to fling them back in their faces, and
haven't you had people refuse you
things so graciously that you actually
felt grateful for what you didn't get ?
Haven't you had people invite you to
their houses in a manner that made
you feel that they were doing 1T under
compulsion, and because it was an OBJ
legation they could no longer escape,
and haven't you been asked to othec
places in a way that made you feel
that your hostess was simply pining
for your society, and that she would
consider it an honor and a pleasure
to have you beneath her roof? That's
the difference between tact and lack
of tact.
Haven't you got an Aunt Suzanne
who never gives you five dollar bill
without ramming a moral lecture
down your throat with it, and telling
you how she has to deny herself to
give to the poor? And haven't you
had Mrs. Blank say to you, At told
my daughter she really MUST invite
you to spend a weekend with US, you
get out so little?'

The American Farm Bureau FEEDER
alton wants both the -Adamson law
and the Esch- Cummins law repealed.
The suggestion is not a bad one. The
country is suffering from too much
government in business" The gov
eminent has undertaken to do things
which it finds itself unable to do. In
an effort to regulate and control the
transportation business it has brought
about conditions never before wit
messed in the country and its laws are

AS an incentive to the brotherhood
chiefs to call off the strike the rail-
road labor board has pointed out that
no decision on future wage reduction
could be reached before next August.
Unfortunately this probably is true.
Such delays are responsible for much
of the country's labor troubles. Deci-
sions are not made until long after
the conditions demanding them have
changed or disappeared. However,
the strike has not been called on &C
count of the plan of the railroads to
ask for further reductions in wages,
but on account of the reduction al
ready made. The bretherhoods are
srrayed against the law and not
against their employers. If the board
will keep out of the fight the rail-
roads will handle the situation, aided
by the authorities at Washington, IL
necessary. In the existing contrO-
versy both the law and public senh-
ment are on the side of the carriers
and they can't lose.

Among the officers of the New York
y Federal Reserve bank it is reported
there are six receiving salaries run
ming from $4,000 to $4,000 a year.
Their total salaries are $4,000 and
formerly they were $4,000. The
president has been lifted from $40 .OOG
to $4,000, one vice president from
$4,000 and the other from $4,000 to
$4,000 each. The explanation of
these high salaries probably lies in the
fact that profits beyond a stated per
centage must go to the government.
The bank officers appear to be trying
to keep the money in the family.

sold at the mill At prices approximate
ly the same as received fifteen years
ago. 1t is apparent from this that the
lumbermen have taken all their part
of deflation loss. Some other factor is
evidently holding up construction
work. Freight rates of course con
tribute largely to the cost to the
builder, but it might be enlightening
to hear from the jobbers and retailers.
Prices to builders still are much high
er than they were before the war.

JUST FOLKS
THE DIFFERENCE IN MEN.
By EDGAR A. GUEST.

THE DIFFERENCE IN MEN.
There is a difference in men
One spreads flattery on SO thick.
You know it isn't meant to stick,
And all the praise he utters then
Is lost the minute it is heard
You can't recall a single word.
Another takes your hand and sets
Your blood a-tingle, thru and thru
His friendliness is all for you
He never, when you're down, forgets
To speak the words you long to hear.
Somehow you feel he's always near.
One flatters and his speech is sweet,
But little sugar friendship needs
Its charm is found in kindly deeds,
And not by words which all repeat
Do men their Utmost thoughts reveal,
But something which the heart can feel
I've known the silent man to stand
Beside me when my heart was numb
And l rejoiced that he had come,
For from the pressure of his hand
l knew unto the bitter end
In him I had a constant friend.
