LABOR LEADERS
IN FRONT RANK
OF EXECUTIVES
In General Ability and the Power
for Organization, They Are
Recognized as Having Few
Superiors in the World of
Business.

Eighteen thousand dollars q year
for labor leader and contract for
life shows that some unions are pay
ing as big salaries to their executives
as do the large business interests.
Salaries of from $1,000 to $4,000 are
by no means infrequent, writes John
W. Harrington in the New York Sun.
The head OF the Dockbuilders union,
for instance, whose compensation Is
$1,000 a month, is the highest paid
labor representative in New York city
and probably in the country. At least
no leader of the working classes has
come forth so far TO admit that he Is
getting more, and a search of the
archives of the unions fails to reveal
anything like so huge an honorarium.
Although this appears to be the top
notch in the way of salaries the dock
builders in the district from Philadel-
phia to Boston, including those of New
York city and neighborhood, believe
that they are getting the worth of
their money, and insisted on his having
that amount, although like Caesar, he
Headquarters Uplifted.
Once labor headquarters was
dark and dingy place, reeking of stale
pipes and of staler beer fumes. Its
floors were caked with CRIME and it's
walls were dirty and dingy. Now the
chief officer Of the dockbuilderS has q
bright and airy office and does busi-
ness In an atmosphere of good desks,
file cases and high power business ef-
ficiency. Clerks, stenographers and
cashiers are under his eye, and every
where are all the devices which make
for attending to large affairs. Ii one
were suddenly translated to his pres
ence one would think that he was
talking to the manager of one of the
large corporations or bank president
He works from 16 to 1S hours a day
and says he often works 20. Any one
seeing him cheerfully violating the
eight-hour law may we'll realize that
he Is worth a good deal of money to
any interest to which he might devote
himself, for he transacts business like
lightning
Nominally, he is the representative
Of the Dockbuilders' union, which is
connected with the Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, part of the
American Federation Of Labor, and
from that organization he draws his
large salary, voted to him unanimously
over his veto. Those who compose
this well-established union were get
ting $500 day before the war, |. e..
In 1913, and now they have $3.50, which
is a gain of slightly more than 100 per
cent.
They are giving, therefore, less than
one days work year to the salary Of
their representative. In return for
this he keeps things running smoothly,
and sees that work is as regular and
steady as possible and gets what they
consider fair wages for them without
their having to lose heavily by strikes
in getting it. He is as willing TO order
strike as any labor leader, but he
regards it as last resort. Neither

DYING VETERANS DAYS ARE
NUMBERED; TELLS BUDDIES TO
\. SING ON AND ALL Make MERRY

NEW YORK, Nov. S.-With the be-
lief that he had not many more days
on earth, Percy Evans, 30 years old,
East Orange, last night played host
at his farewell dinner.
Rising from the sick bed to which
he has been confined the last four
months with tuberculosis, resulting
from being gassed when he was over
seas in the World War, he rode in a
taxicab to the Washington Society
Club house and, propped among pill
lows, presided over the affair. 1t
was attended by 25 friends.
"Sing all you want, boys; make
all the noise you want, fight If you
want, but please do not wreck the
place." he told them.

Evans voice broke at this point
and his friends sat silently by while
he recovered his composure and
called on a trio to sing.
Evans was one of the first New
Jersey men to enlist during the
World War and one of the last TO re-
turn. His parents are dead and he is
financially well off. 1t has just be-
