DENIES CUTTING
LABOR WAGE IN
ROAD BUILDING
City Contractor Says Old
Scale Prevails on His
Projects.

William d. Vogel, Indianapolis
contractor, who is widening the Ma
tionaI road vest of the city under a
state highway department con-
tract, today declared that he has
not reduced wages Of his men. as
reported by Adolph Fritz, secretary
Of the Indiana State Federation Of
Labor.
Fritz told The Times that Di-
rector John j. Brown Of the state
highway department had told him
that the contractor doing the state
work on West Washington street
was paying 17iz cents an hour.
The lowest wage I am paying on
that job is IS cents an hour" Vogel
explained today. I took the con-
tract last January and figured on
labor at IS and 40 cents.
Only water Boys
only the water boys get below
s. cents, and many Of the men are
paid rs. 30 cents and 81 an hour.
They are men who have been with
me for years and I am paying them
the same wages which they received
for similar work the last four or
five years.
L feel that TO charge me with
wage cutting is very unfair, because
it is absolutely untrue. In fact,
other contractors have come to me
and asked why I don't cut wages
and take advantage Of the current
unemployment.

Sports Coats Are in
Interesting Styles

There are several types OF swag-
ger coats which mark the sports mode
distinctly from either street or after
noon wear. Collars are standing or
cut with the lapel and are wide enough
to be turned up about the neck as the
weather necessitates. Although rather
straight in line, the smartest coat laps
over generously in double breasted eff
feet. Button trimmings are very evil
dent.
Tweeds of course have cachet
of chic all their own. re water
PROCEED tweed is fittingly lined with
gabardine material similar to the
raincoat type.
An excellent coat for the college
woman is that Of camel's hair with
slashed pockets. self belt placed at
the normal waistline. four-button
trimming at the closing, saddle
shoulders and wide convertible col
lar.
The rumble seat type of coat con-
tinues to be very smart as well as
popular. This pile fabric, which re-
sembles beaver, is exceedingly warm
when chill winds blow.
