The Navy Yard Pay Scale.

Unless President Harding intervenes
a new wage scale will be established
in the Washington navy yard on Fri
day, materially lower than that which
now prevails. The employees Of the
yard. nachinists mainly, have protest
ed to the President against the award
Of the naval wage board. and the mat
ter il now under executive considera-
tion. The new wage scale establishes
73 cents an hour as q maximum rate
for the basic trades. and proportionate-
ly less for the other less skilled groups.
This represents an increase Of about
45 per cent above the pre-war wage
level, but an average reduction Of the
weekly wages Of skilled mechanics to
about $2s.2o, a decrease Of $14 a week
from previous earnings.
These reductions, it is urged by the
Navy Department officials, are neces-
sary to bring the cost Of maintaining
the navy yards down to the figures OF
the reduced appropriations. II the
wage scale is not cut, It il contended.
it win be necessary to keep the yards
on short time, giving each man only
about i've days Of work q week. or
materially to reduce the force.
The contention Of the employees in
fhis case Is that according to the ge&

The New York Primary.

Fusion against Tammany won easily
yesterday in the New York mayoralty
primary. Henry H. Curran. the mayor
atty nominee, has proved his worth in
several places Of public trust. and en-
joys the confidence and respect Of all
who know him. He is equal to the
duties of the Office he seeks, and il
properly supported will be elected.
F. H. La Guardia, president of the
board of aldermen, was a candidate.
but weakened himself by attacking
Gov. Miller, and securing thus the ap-
plause of the Tammanyites. The re-
publicans wisely turned from the man
whose nomination the opposition de-
sired.
Another candidate was Judge Has
kell Of Brooklyn. who frankly appealed
for wet support. The result shows that
the republicans Of New York do not
favor the restoration Of the drink traf-
fic and the reopening OF the saloon.
The women particularly were opposed
to that proposition.
Mayor Hylan was unopposed for re-
nomination. More truly than In his
first race he is the candidate In this
race of Tammany Hall, and stands for
a Tammany administration Of the
town. Leader Murphy will exert him
self to put him over.
1t is a pretty fight as it. stands. and
the result may have a bearing In
directly on next years state race. and
that result, in turn, on the presidential
race of 1924. The enrolment Is in
favor of, the fusion forces, and good
management should give them the
victory.

American Ships and seamen.
This is from New York:

A declaration OF preference for
American citizens over aliens in the
manning of American ships was
passed unanimously today at the quar-
terly meeting Of the American Ship
stated that history afforded no eI-
ample Of a successful maritime nation
which drew the bulk Of its seagoing
personnel from sources other than its
own Inhabitants, and that competent
ployment preference by all American
shipowners.
A good policy. worthy>of adoption in
all lines of American endeavor. On
land. as well as on water. let us all
stand together; help one another; make
America stronger than ever by max
ing it more thoroughly American.
The spirit of this policy has just been
asserted in Porto Rico, where a party
favoring independence for the island
has been organized and Is pushing
propaganda. Some of its members
seeking appointment to ofilce have
just been denied recognition by the
newly inaugurated American governor,
government should Of right be dis,
tributed among those who are friendly
to the government-a perfectly sound
proposition.
So in the matter Of manning Ameri
can ships. Preference is due American
seamen. They are to be credited will,
pride in their country; with desire
to see her go forward in all her under
takings, and to help in the line Of their
labors.
If they are not available now in
numbers they soon should be. Years
ago, when we addressed ourselves to
the sea carrying business. we could
and did, boast Of as fine sailors az
could be found; and. with them. we
achieved big results on the water
That history can be repeated. and this
Is the time to do it. The American
Shipowners' Association is on the right
tack.

ernment,s own figures. compiled by the
bureau Of labor statistics, the cost Of
living in May, 1921. In nineteen sea-
Coast cities of the United States was
such that the annual budget Of fam
ily Of five on a standard Of health and
decency was $2.2e6.ss, and that to
maintain this a man must work full
time throughout the year at the rate
Of 81 cents an hour. The employees
contend that private employers are
paying 30 cents an hour for first-class
mechanics. and that this il the aver
age rate in many localities. The com
mandant of the Washington yard APP
proved q recommendation Of 80 cents
an hour for this class Of workers, but
the wage board reduced the figure to
73 cents an hour, or Is cents less than
the Labor bureau figuNes showed to be
necessary for the decent maintenance
Of family Of I'VE.
Economy is essential In the govern
ment. Btit the question arises whether
this economy should 30 to the point
Of working hardship. Congress has
materially reduced the appropriations,
but 1t cannot be believed that it in.
tended to effect thereby reduction In
the compensation Of employees below
the point of decent living. The gov
ernment should surely pay no less
than is paid in private employment
for similar work. II the new wage
scale is below the private rates it
! should be amended. If the total Of the
appropriations is not sufficient to
maintain the full force Of the yard at
the fair rates required for decent liv-
ing the force should be reduced in
size rather than in rate Of pay. These
considerations are doubtless being care
fully weighed by the President in sea-
son for decision before Friday.

absolute wsstes Care In the main.
tenance Of muperty. attention to wires
and fires. abstention from careless
ness, the proper use Of screens and
rigid Observance Of rules by smokers,
thei proper stowage of combustibles.
ali these are necessary safeguards and
all are easy.
The accumulation. of trash, indiffer.
ent inspection Of wiring, exposure Of
fiimsy material to heated pipes. the
omission of gratings from cellar OPEN
ings through which matches and light
ed smokes may be dropped from the
streets. and the ignoring of safety
rules by occupants are the main causes
ol fires. Sometimes children playing
with, matches start blazes, but the
matches were carelessly exposed to the
reach Of the children. Sometimes rats
gnaw off electric insulation, which
should mot have been exposed to their
reach. Sometimes lace curtains are
blown into gas flames, which should
not have been left burning in condi-
lions to make contact possible. Some
times hot, grease bubbles over in
kitchens and sets fire to woodwork.
This would not happen with proper at
tention to the stove.
In short, the whole range Of fires,
big and little, comes to the point Of
human carelessness and neglect. Fire
prevention day is designed to concen-
trate attention upon this fact. to stim-
ulate systematic. habitual considera-
ton Of the hremaking elements and
ways Of checking them. Every day. of
course, should be Rire-prevention day,
and the purpose Of this annual observ-
ance is to stimulate the habit Of con-
slant care and consideration. Only by
getting fre-prevention habit can this
country be spared from the terrible
waste Of property and Of lives from
which it suffers.

Fire Prevention.

October 10 has been proclaimed as
Fire-prevention day for. this District
in common with all other parts Of the
country. The citizens organisations
and trade bodies have been asked to
cooperate in bringing to the attention
Of the public on that day the fact that
the fire loss in the United States dur
ing 1920 amounted to half billion
dollars and caused the death Of $500
persons.
washington's share Of this fire loss
is proportionately small, but It should
be even smaller. Almost all fires are
preventable. The half billion. dollars
Of loss in the United States is virtually
all waste. Locally al Of the flre loss "a

The Widows Return.

Franz Lehar once said that his
most cherished possession was a copy
Of the cartoon that appeared years
ago, entitled I'D Like to Kill the
Man Who Wrote the Merry Widow
Waltz" It pictured the fate of a
man who was awakened by the sound
Of the familiar strain whistled by the
milkman and was harried throughout
the day by the same tune cranked out
by every organ grinder.
But if this was genuine tribute
to the composer it is almost equaled
by the persistent popularity Of ''The
Merry Widow" in nearly every coun-
try in the world. That the operetta
has been revived again in New York.
with a special cast and one of Ur-
bans best stage settings, shows that
Its charm still lives.
"The Merry Widow" bears the same
relation to the musical comedies OF
the last decade that stsyenson's
of Zenda" do to the recent novels of
international intrigue and romance.
