.CARPENTER
. ROW At CRISIS
Times Staff Photo

A three-way fight is on in
Washington between carpenters
and contractors and the union,
with the crisis due at any time,
The Master Builders Associ-
alton, composed of local contrac,
tors, has gone on record for a
wage scale of 81 an hour for
carpenters.
The union is holding out for
$11 a day for each carpenter
and an eight-hour day.
One hundred and SO carp3n
ters are on record as having
received the lower scale-$8 a
day-on three contractual jobs
two jobs in front of the White
House and one job in front of
the Commerce Department. These
are the building of inaugural
stands erected, respectively, by
Skinker and Garrett, H. P.
Whitty Company and Bahen and
Wright.
Because the Master Builders
Association claims that all such
work as thiS-done by private
funds-is not Government work,
and therefore not amenable to
the Davis-Bacon prevailing wage
law, they intend to fight the
union to a finish.

"Things have certainly come
to a pretty pass when people
tear down whole buildings and
carry them away for firewOOd."
So said Judge John P. NC
Mahon in Police Court today in
passing sentence on two colored
persons charged with depreciation
of private property.
Walter Smeed, colored, 1900
block G st. N. W., and Lena
Brewer, also colored, 2400 block I

the charge.
C. w. Simpson, 1000 block Ver-
mont Ave. N. w., said a 5000
garage in the rear of 240O block
H st. N. w., had been dismantled
of wood, and within a few days
had collapsed and most Of it car
ried away. Policeman B. F. Bean,

N CARL RULING
CHECKS RAISE

Presidential approval is neces-
sary for the appointment of a
federal employe to higher grade
position, even if that position is
merely seasonal and temporary,
according to a ruling by Comp
troller General j. r. McCarl made
public today.
The ruling, which in effect
reiterates a prior ruling by the
Comptroller General, is addressed
to the Civil Service Commission
and deals with the cases of five
craftsmen sought for temporary
positions that would not continue
for more than nine months.
The War Department and Civil
Service Commission were un-
certain as to their right to choose
craftsmen already employed on
permanent jobs, at smaller
salaries, for these positions. NC
Carls ruling is that even on
temporary positions involving
higher grades and increased
salaries, appointments must be
made by the President.

NOT ALL GUEST
PUPILS To PAY

The provision in the District
supply bill for 1884 which forces
all nonresident pupils to pay for
education in the local public
school probably will be amended
by the Senate to exclude chill
dren of Federal employees, it was
predicted today by DR.. Frank w.
Ballou, superintendent of schools.
Hearings before the District
subcommittee of the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee indi-
Gated that the provision would
be amended in that way, the
superintendent said.
Under the present system, so
many children are exempted that
only 66 out Of a total of $500
pay the necessary tuition. 1t
is pointed out that education Of
so many outside pupils without
payment of tuition creates a
serious drainage on school funds.

DANGER Of FIRE
At JEFFERSON
IS STRESSED
Purchase of Site Held Up BY
Unfair Price Asked, Says
Senator Bingham

Appeals from taxpayers were
laid before the District subcom,
mittee of the Senate Appropria.
tions Committee today to expe-
dite appropriations for construc-
tion of the jefferson Junior and
Woodrow Wilson high schools to
relieve crowded conditions in pub
lie educational institutions in the
city.
j. M. Schaffer, president of
the Southwest Citizens ASSocia-
ton, requested that Congress ap-
propriate money for purchase of
site at Seventh and H Streets
Southwest, to construct a Jeffer-
son Junior High School to per-
NIT the removal of children from
the building in which classes are
now being held. He pointed out
that the present structure is
within so feet of freight tracks
and that engines stopping in
front of the school constitute a
fire hazard.
Fire Escapes Inadequate
Schaffer also reminded the
committee that there were in
adequate fire escapes from the
auditorium on the top floor OF
the building where 600 pupils OF
the school often congregate.
The necessary appropriation OF
$185 900 has met with serious OBJ
lection because the property is
assessed at only $65,000. Senator
Hiram Bingham (RO of Connec-
ticut, chairman of the Subcom-
mittee, said:
"This is another attempt on
the part of certain citizens to
hold ND the Government. /
am sorry for the people that
want the school, but when GER
tain citizens try to soak the
Government people of the com
munity must suffer-"
High School Fund Urged
The committee also was asked
to restore $67 900 to the $433,0 900
item approved by the House for
the Woodrow Wilson High School
in Fort Reno Park so as to permit
completion Of the building by
August 1885.
Wilbur Leroe jr., of the Forest
Hills Citizens Association, Mrs.
Burton K. Wheeler, and other
citizens of that neighborhood ap-
pealed to the committee to appro-
pirate $500,O00 so that the build
ing might be completed in August
1885, and alleviate crowded condi-
tions at Western High School
which, it is said, may be forced
to go on double-shift to care for
the increasing number of pupils.
