ASK PAY INCREASE
Per Diem Workers Petition
Commissioners - Could
Earn More Outside.

The 1000 per diem laborers and
mechanics of the District government
have petitioned the Commissioners
for a wage increase. it became known
today.
The request was made by Frank ].
Bresnahap, president of the City En-
ployes' Association, at the direction
OF his men, who are contending that
they cannot meet living expenses or,
the present wage scale.
1t is understood that no definite
percentage OF increase was mentioned
in the application, the assumption. be-
ing that if the Commissioners decide
to open up the wage question they
would direct the wage board to make
an investigation. r.
Present Scale Yenr Old.
: Another point advanced by-the; men
In support of their petition. IL that
mechanics engaged in private work in
washington are receiving mich high
er pay than the municipal workers.
The present wage scale has been in
Anect since April l, 1922, at which time
was ordered.
Under that scale bIacksmiths.
orickiayers. carpenters. electricians,
plumbers and steamfitters were rated
az 20 a day. with painters and timers
at So.S4. The pay of skilled laborers
ranges from 1858 to S4.l6, and I'M
sKilled laborers from S2.72 to $3.50.
Paid From Lump sum.
one representative of the employees
organization said today that any of
thess men could get higher pay BY
leaving the District service and going
INTO private employ. This man adj
United that the District mechanic
works more days in the year than
most private employees. but took the
position that the difference in wages
IN stiil too great after considering
that factor.
What action the Commissioners will
take on the wage question was not
known today. Since practically all
or the per diem workers are in the
engineer department. the initiative in
the matter rests with Acting Eusf-
neer Commissioner Besson
The per diem workers, unlike the
statutory clerks. are paid from lump
sum appropriations. and their rates
or pay are fixed by the Commits
stoners upon recommendation of a
board composed of representatives of
department heads and employees.

Kapok Bedding for U. S. Navy:
From the World Wide Masazine: -....'.

AS Americans are proverbially. in
sistent upon the sanitary. condition
Of all articles with which they come
in daily contact. Java kapok should
have an especial appeal to them as
a mattress filler. The natural con-
dition of fiuffiness. resiliency and
buoyancy of Java kapok allows the
air to circulate through the mat
tress and thus prevents moisture
from having any effect on It. This
accounts for the use of kapok bed
ding by the United States Navy
Kapok has also been found a very
useful and highly desirable article
for stufflng life belts and other ap-
pliances designed to carry heavy
weights in water. Java kapok hav-
ing great buoyancy, can carry twenty
to thirty times its own weight in
water, while British and India kapok
can carry ten to fifteen times its own
weight. Java kapok does not lose
it's buoyancy even after having been
submerged for days and then dried.
After thirty days submersion kapok
loses. only 10 per cent of its buoyancy.
