WAGE BOARD TO REOPEN
WOMAN SALARY QUESTION
Will Reconsider Question of Mini
mum Pay of $16.5O Ordered
in District.

Ihe District Minimum Wage Board
, announced yesterday that ii has de-
clded to reconsider the minimum
salary of $3.50 a week now paid
to the approximately 1000 women en-
ployed in the stores and other mer-
camille establishments of the CITY.
Ihe vote to reopen this wage case
was taken by the board at the request
OF the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association. The board states that
the merchants base their request on
the ground that since the present
rate of pay was fixed in 1919 the cost
OF living for women in this industry
has declined sufficiently to justify
a reconsideration of the question
Miss Ethel Smith. one of the mem
bers of the board, voted against re-
opening the case and issued state
ment setting forth the reasons for
her action.
There is no evidence whatever
which in my Judgment would war
rent the reduction in wages which
the merchants have asked for, and
therefore to call conference for
the purpose of considering such a
reduction seems to me wholly un
warranted" said Miss Smith "A
business boom in the immediate fu-
ture is predicted by business men
themselves. and such authorities as
Dun's Review and the Annalist show
that the cost Of living is rising and
will probably continue to rise"

Through United States Attorney

Attorney O'Leary, William H. Meyer,
superintendent of the Washington
asylum and Jail, has filed his answer
to the petition. He cites an act OF

PHONE men SURVEY
D. c. GAINS TO 1943
Experts Engaged to Deter
mine Character and Extent
of Development.

In order to serve Washington sys-
tematically In future, the chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company has
work to estimate how the city will
develop during the. next twenty years.
Experienced in making such aur-
veys, these telephone prophets Will
go into every section of the city,
study the possibilities for growth and
figure out what classes of families
will settle in each locality 80 that
when the development comes the
company will be in a position to give
the service called for.
When the task is completed the
telephone company expects to nave
an intelligent and reasonably reliable
forecast Of what Washington will be
like as far distant as 1913.
Takes In suburbs.
The survey will include Hyatts-
Rosslyn. Chevy Chase, Capitol Heights.
Takoma Park and all other nearby
Maryland and Virginia towns. .
The first step will be to classify
the families of the city according to
the type of dwelling: business houses,
according to the nature of the buSi-
ness and the possibility of expansion
in the near future.
Another important phase of the
study will be to find out where hotels
and apartment houses are likely to
be built.
The layman might well ask. What
relation have rents paid by tenants
to the future growth of telephone
business? But to the telephoOe en-
perts this is a contributing factor.
These prognosticators say that when
family pays less than certain

them in their studies:
ID Reports Or estimates prepared

studies. sewerage, gas. water pr cleo

housing surveys and school surveys.
(2) Statistics on school enrolment
as far back as available. water

licenses. monthly rental OF business
property. annual circulation of Ii
brary books, number of kilograms
sent annually, volume of freight and
express business. and, of course. the
results of all police and government
census counts.
Such surveys are made, only in the
largest cities. and are revised from
time to time, as noteworthy changes
take place. For instance. a survey
of this kind was completed in 1917.

and telephone engineers find that
