ENGLISH PAY SCALE
|SFAR BELOW U.S.
Craftsmen Get Only rs to 40
Per Cent of Wages In
This Country.

In the principal trades and crafts
in Great Britain the workers receive
but rs or DO per cent Of the average
wages paid workers in the United
States.
Reliable figures made public by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics and Wash
ington builders show that in most OF
the crafts the English wage Garner
receives less than $50 week. while
the comparative American wage earn
er receives on an average OF between
$50 and $50 a week.
Experts at the Bureau of Labor
Statistics explain that the reason the
English workers can subsist on the
low wages they receive is not be-
cause living costs are decidedly be-
low those prevailing in the United
States, but because they have accus-
toned themselves to q frugal standard
of living. It is stated that the pri-
mary reason for the labor upheaval Is
that the British craftsmen desire to
elevate their present standard Of
living.

he said that a man had been put In
iail for three months because he did
NOT nav a debt which the court after
ward decided he did not owe. and he
gave the details of the Brosnan case
as testified to before the subcommit-
tee. In summing up he said that for
contempt of court there is unlimited
authority TO put people In jail mere
for an unlimited period.
Mr. Rianton put before the commit
tee the agreement of at least three
members Of the subcommittee that
there is no question Of the integrity OF
the court.
On report Of Chairman Stalker OF
the subcommittee on streets and high
ways. the committee ordered a IA
yorable report on a bill authorizing
the opening of a street from Georgia
avenue to Ninth street to relieve
traffic congestion near the base ball
park.
Houston then recommended action
on the bill authorizing erection or
new building for a nurses training
school at Columbia Hospital and Ly-
ing-in Asylum at a cost OF $300,Ooo.
Mr.. Keller, as chairman Of the sub
committee which considered this bill.
called attention that three different
agencies are interested in that insti-
tuition. He said that the buildings
and land are owned by the. Federal
Government, the plant is operated by
private parties and the people Of the
district benefit largely. He had no
objection to the building being built,
but argued that either the Federal
or the District government should
take over the plant and operate It.
Mr.. Gilbert said that since the Fed.
eral Government owns the land and
other building. the new building to
replace the the one that was con-
demned should be erected by the Fed
eral Government, and that the policy
of who should administer the institu-
ton ought to be decided later. The
bill was ordered favorably reported.

der Of business on next District Day
in the House.
Representative Keller, Republican,
of Minnesota then asked for state
ment by Representative Gilbert,
Democrat. Of Kentucky as to whether
the court should not carry some OF
the responsibility under charges laid
against Commissioner Fenning. Mr..
Gilbert stated that 1t is the unami-
nous opinion of the Gibson subcom-
mittee that there has been no corrup-
ton on the part Of the court.
Thinks Court Careless.
He said he is more severe in his
criticism Of the court than other
members. He thinks it is the unani-
nous opinion of the subcommittee
that the court has been careless, and
it is his personal opinion that there
has been great carelessness, gross
favoritism, coupled with arbitrary
and tyranical action" He said that
II there is no law fixing Mr. Fen
ning's commission, and the court has
agreed to those commissions. and IL
they are excessive the court Is to
blame. He said that II bonds are too
great and the court fixes the amount
Of bonds, then the court is to blame.
Again he said that IL such practice
as has been charged against the Com
missioner Is against the law, then the
court is to blame for carelessness.
''In many instances the court is to
blame" he said, because 1t goes
ahead of the auditor directing him
what to do, not only directing him to
allow a commission of 10 per cent, but
figuring out the amount"
In reply to questions by Represent
ative Houston that Judge Mccoy had
testified it was the duty OF the court
to fix commissions, Mir. Gilbert re-
piled but not to audit the bills. 1t
was the duty OF the auditor to find
out the facts and the duty Of the
Judge in tho light of those facts to
Ak the commission. but not without
hearings
Gilbert Censures Court.
Mr.. Gilbert censured the court as
being "very culpable in the favoritism
of Chief Justice Mccoy toward Mr..
Fenning." He referred to one case in
which he said Chief Justice Mccoy
APPOINTED Mr.. Fenning as receiver
over the strenuous objection OF one
party to the litigation when the other
party had not consented. He SAID that
If Mr.. F'enning had acted his feo
would have been very large and the
work very small. He stated that the
narties to this litigation. by reason OF
Mr., Jennings appointment and as the
only way to keep their property out
of Mr.. Jennings hands, had compro-
missed the case, and quoted testimony
before the subcommittee that when
the case was settled Chief Justice Nc
Gov had remarked, II am sorry my
friend Fenning cannot get something

attempt had been made to show tnat
this had been said facettousiy. IL IL

british GENERAL STRIKE ENDS;
MEN RETURN TO WORK AT ONCE

Congress general council was making
its decision known to the cabinet In
Downing street.
Asks Malice Be Avoided.
Announcing to the House of Com
mons this afternoon that the general
strike had been called off, Premier
Baldwin said he and his colleagues
would make immediate efforts to ef-
feet resumption Of negotiations be-
tween the miners and mine owners
with a view to securing the earliest
possible settlement.
The premier continued:
II will only add this to what l have
to say to the house at this moment
that the peace that believe has come
and the victory that has come are
the peace and victory of common
sense, not of any one part Of the
country, but Of common sense on the
part of the whole United Kingdom,
and it is Of the utmost importance
that the British people should not
look backward, but forward.
"We should resume our work In
spirit Of cooperation, putting behind
us all malice and all vindictiveness."
House Crowded Early.
The house was packed to overflow
ing when Ramsay Macdonald. the
leader of the Laborites, rose and asked
the premier whether he had any
statement to. make regarding the in
dustrial situation. The Prince of
Wales and his brother, the Duke of
York, were again in the peers gallery,
as they have been at every session
since the strike started.
The settlement was known in the
commons before the premier's formal
statement, but the effect on the house
was electrical. Those in the lobby
could hear a buzz of excitement and
some individual cheers from behind
the doors, which were kept locked
until after. the prayers.
Sir John Simon, entering the house.
was cheered by the Liberals. The
Laborites gave Macdonald. Thomas
and Snowden an ovation. but not a
boisterous one. AS the premier took
his seat the conservatives rose en-
masse. waving their order papers and
cheering.
