Paying for Uniforms Cuts Deep
Into u. s. Elevator Mems Pav

Elevator operators in several of
the government buildings are
broke, or nearly broke, today.
notwithstanding that the ghost
walked yesterday in the depart
ments, some of the elevator oper-
ators are wondering whether they
can now stretch their earnings
over until October 81, the next
government pay day.
, The money shortage AMONG the
elevator operators comes about
because of an. order that the .oper-
,ators' in the government buildings
which are under the jurisdiction
of the superintendent of the State,
War and Navy buildings must be
uniformed, and they must buy
their uniforms themselves.
The uniforms cost each indi-
vidual $3.50. Yesterday was pay
day. but in at least two depart--
Evening star., 1923-10-16

ments- the ghost walked in vain.
Today the elevator operators are
broke again. But they have
nice, new uniform to show for that
part of their two weeks wages
they spent.
The State. War and Navy guards
have jurisdiction over twenty
eight government buildings or
privately owned buildings used by
the government. And the elevator
operators in all the buildings
which have elevators must buy
their own uniforms. Most gov
ernment elevator operators get a
salary of $500 plus the bonus,
which brings their salary up to
1.140. Out of this they buy
winter uniform and a summer uni
form-total cost, S27.50.
The only large government
buildings over which the State.
War and Navy guards have not
jurisdiction are the main buildings
of the Treasury, Post Office and
Agricultural depar rtments. which
maintain guard forces of their
: own.
