D. C. Workers Win Raise

Secretary of Labor James J. Davis.
who rose from the ranks as an iron
puddler to become a member OF the
cabinet under three Presidents, today de-
clared that although times are little
slack" workers of the District of Co
lumbia without a doubt will take great
pride IN contributing their part toward
the construction of the local World War
Memorial.
Secretary Davis Endorsed the move
ment that is under way by the Central
Labor Union here to raise 100000 to
complete financing of the memorial
temple, which is to be placed in West
Potomac Park, in tribute to this city's
veterans of the World War.
IT am sure" said Secretary Davis,
that the workers of Washington will
nobly and generously respond to an
appeal for funds to make up the small
balance due on the proposed District
of Columbia World War Memorial
They will not neglect this honor to the
many of their kind who left their occu-
pations to face peril and death for their
country on the fields of France. This
building is to perpetuate the memory of
these heroes, and every worker in the
District will want the satisfaction of
feeling that some of his earnings, no
matter how small the portion he can
spare, has gone into this monument to
his fellows. If the times are a little
slack, the sacrifice may be all the great
err, but the greater the sacrifice the
greater the pride in making it. 1t will
be given, too, in the knowledge that
no matter what a pinch it may be to
give little money, it is nothing to
having given life and health, as these
heroes have done"

Telegraph Service Poor.
Rarely in Journalistic experience. If
ever. have the correspondents who went
to Bucharest encountered more dis
heartening and unreliable telegraph
service for their dispatches. Dispatches
that first week which were filed at 1880

Vienna or Paris for relay to England
and America until or 10 hours later.
Sometimes they were not delivered until
the following morning, when their utll-
ity was dead. Strictly speaking, there
was no censorship, although it was
not wise to write too outspokenly about
the domestic difficulties OF the royal
family. In such instances the dispatch
might be laid aside for study by gov
eminent official and as a result killed
by delay But on the whole news dis
patches were delayed for hours directly
because of hopelessly inadequate tele-
graph facilities. Correspondents never
knew whether their stories would get
out of Bucharest in hours or in 10.
Strenuous complaints against this
maddening condition were brought to

the telegraph bureau responsible for its
future service.
New Insight Into Carol Given.
Unfortunately, the chief harm had
already been done and in addition the
telegraph was not equipped to handle
the scores of thousands of words which
correspondents were attempting to get
out of Bucharest daily. But there is in
this another insight into Carols char
acter. The man who was renowned as
princely dilettante has not begun his
kingship in anything like that fashion.
