Pride of French
Navy CoesD Down
in Quiberon Bay
All but Three of Crew of
Huge Dreadnaught Account
ed for-Vessel Consid.
cred Total Loss.

LOrient. France, Aug. 27.-(By A..
P)-Thc battleship France, $4,000
tons. one OF the pridcs OF the French
navy. struck a rock off Quiberon bay
in the darkness OF early morning
and went to the bottom in Is feet
of water.
All but three OF the 900 officers
and men and crew were rescued from
rafts and hfeboats launched from the
battleslip before il took the final
plunge.
The wrecked warship was one OF
four French battlcships OF the first
line. returning from night naneuvers
TO anchorage at Port Haliguen. whyi
at this morning it ran on bid
den rock lying Is feet below the
surface. A great cash was torn
in the steel hull OF the drcadnaught
1t remained afloat an hour, giving
the crew enough time for hurried
escape in boats. Then the doomed
craft slowly settled, turned on its
side and went down. 1t lies on the
bottom and is considered total
wreck.
The wreck occurred in the tortuous
water OF Quiberon bay, 20 miles
southeast Of here on the Brittany
coast. The swift currents abounding
there are supposed 10 have swept the
warship slightly from its course. The
DETECTION was sufficient, however. to
carry it squarely and headon over
the pointed rock known and charter
ed but dangerously concealed be-
meath the water in this part OF the
bay. The water rushed into the
hold, flooding the boilers and short
circuiting the electricity The en-
ginc crew quickly took every pre-
caution to avoid explosions.
Meanwhile. the crew began launch
ing boats while awaiting help from
a sister dreadnaught, the Paris, and
many torpedo boats and other small
craft which had been asked by wire
less for help, The crew got off
safely before the dreadnaught slump
ed over on its side and the 900 off
GERS and men. afloat in boats and
RATS, were taken aboard by other
vessels. The rescue required several
hours, and at noon II was announced
that IS members OF the crew were
missing Twelve OF these were found
later, and final roll call showed
that only three were lost.

Way Men to Ask
Wage Increase
Demands Of Workers Will Call
for Minimum Of 48 Gents
an Hour - Hearing
Monday.

Chicago, Aug. 27-Maintcnancc
OF way employees on practically all
OF the American railroads--400,000 OF
them--will ask for an increase OF
pay IRON the United States labor
board Monday. According 10 the an
Eounccmcnt made by 4. i. Grabel,
president OF the union. the demands
will call for a minimum wage OF 48
cents an hour, the war time rate, as
aRainstthe present scale Of q TO IS
cents.
The demands OF the maintenance
OF way men, who declined to strike
when the shopcrafts laid down their
tools several weeks ago, comes at a
critical point in the controversy be-
tween the roads and the striking
shopmcn.
The filing OF the demands for in
creased pay is in keeping with the
policy announced by the waymen at
the time the shopmen were contcm-
plating their strike, according TO Mr..
Cradle. At that time the waymen
refused TO go out, agreeing to fesub-
nit their differences and grievances
to the labor board.
More than 100 OF the l05 railroads
in the country who are affected by
the demands will be parties to the
hearing. The maintenance OF way
men will only present one case, how
ever, and this one hearing and the
one decision upon it will cover all
the roads.
1--WE are asking for a minimum
OF 48 cents an hour" said President
Cradle. with a graduated scale up
ward for skilled or hazardous work.
Arguments for the increase will be
based on the present upward trend
Of wages outside the railroad indus
try and the increased cost of living.
Wages all over the country are in
creasing. Cost OF living is advanc-
ing and economists tell us we are
entering period of prosperity"
