HEARINGS
soon
Data on Private Employment
ReadyMachinists to Pre-
sent Their Complaints.

Consideration Of the readjust-
rnent of wages Of skilled crafts
men in the Washington Navy
Yard begins this week.
Prepare for Hearings.
Following Secretary Of the Navy
Denby's decision to suspend the
award OF the Naval Departmental
Board. az q result of the protests
made by representatives Of the In
ternational Association Of ATachipists.
the commandant of the Washington
Navy Yard made preparations for
hearings to be held in the near
future.
Wage data relating to the pay Of
n1achinists Employed by manu-.
featuring concerns In washington,
Baltimore, Philadelphia, Richmond.
and other neighboring cities is now
being mobilized.
& Sharp variations from the statis,
tics collected more than SIX months
ago, upon which the award of
the Naval Departmental Board was
based, already have been found.
There has been q distinct upward
trend In nachinists' wages not only
in Washington but in all OF the
surrounding Industrial territory.
After all of this data is in the
hands OF the local Navy Yard
board, formal hearings will be held
at which the representative OF the
local machinlsts' lodge will present
their case.
Men To BE Heard.
While it is not probable that the
flat rate OF 80 cents an hour, for
which the lnachinists contend, will
be granted by the local board. 1t is
expected that there will be ap-
proved a substantial increased over
the departmental board rate of ~
cents an hour, which represents no
advance over the previous wage
scale and in several classifications
constituted an. actual decrease.
The ward OF he local board will
have go he Naval Depart
mental Board and to Secretary
DENLY for approval In advance Of
the opening Of the fiscal year in
July.

Though it mustn't be too rOagh.
The Editor. he wants some thrills
To make us cry and laugh:

He wants n paragraph.
The Editor. he wants to know
When q record has been made
For tonnage or efficiency ...
That pats others In the shade.
Well, lets all help the Editor
