Constantinople, Aug. 10.-With the

army to evacuate the territory which
they have held since the armistice.

ENJOY PROSPERITY
1920 No Longer Considered The
High Water Mark

New York, Aug. 10.--American
age-earners are now enjoying a per-
iod of prosperity, greater even than
the, so-called peak period" of 1920,
according to statement issued by
the National Industrial Conference
board, which recently concluded a
research into wages and the cost of
living.
Asserting that 1920 need no long
er be considered the most recent high
water mark for workers in industry"
the Investigators point out that many
plants have announced increases of
10 to Is per cent.
ut Is true" the report continues,
that wages we're at their highest lev
els in 1920, but the cost of living was
also high at that time
Later, the Investigators find, the
cost of living declined more rapidly
than earnings, and in 1922 wages
of longer hours worked and later be-
cause of wage increases"
The report, based on study of
conditions in plants employing 600.-
600 workers. estimates the COMPARE
tive excess of rising wages over ris-
ing living costs as between II and Is
per cent greater in May, 1928. than
in June, 1920, using July, 1914-the
last pre-war month--as working
basis. ...
THE wage-earner was better off in
May. 1928, than during the peak
months of 1920" it observes in con-
clusion. Wages in May we're fast
approaching the peak levels while
the cost of living was considerably
below the peak and in consequence
real earnings rose well above the
former peak figures"

CITIZENS ASK
SCHOOL SITE
Be BOUGHT
Manor, Park Residents Say
Children Have to Walk Far
on Bad Roads.

Fearing for the security of their
children who are compelled to walk
long distance on unimproved
roads before reaching school, a
delegation from the Manor Park
Citizens Association today had a
conference with officials OF the
Budget Bureau. They urged that
an appropriation sufficient to meet
the costs of the construction OF a
new schoolhouse at RittenhOuse
and Fifth streets northwest, be in
cluded In the Districts Budget for
next year.
The delega''o1 made up OF HI. s.
Bryant, Capt. C. d. Cuny and
Ernest II. Pullman, told the budget
officials that unless speedy action
is taken the ground now available
Tor the school site may be bought
up, for other purposes.
Children in the territory to be
served by this school are and for a
long time have been required to
walk considerable distances over
unimproved, and in some instances,
particularly, to the Talxoma school,
through paths in the absence of
Streets" they asserted. ''In addi-
ton to the hardships of winter
weather they are subject to traffic
and other dangers. The majority
of the children are in the lower
grades.
''In addition to caring for the
children of this particular COM
munity the new school will relieve
the strain on the Takoma school
and will otherwise take care of a
rapidly developing territory in va
rious sections of this region" the
delegation said.
