PROSTITUTING A
GOOD LAW.

Workmen's compensation laws are
designed to do exactly what the
name inmplies-compencate workers
for injuries received in the our of
their employment.
So far as administration of the aw
is concerned, there has been a def
mite tendency to extend its scope to
include health, life, accident, old age
and unemployment insurance Tor
workers without an increase in pre-
MUM rate to cover the added risk.
The result is that the entire system
is threatened with a 3sakdown.
This was pointed out in a recent
address by f. Robertson Jones, Gen.
eral Manager Of the Association OF
Casualty and Surety Executives AS
Mr.. Jones says, emotional reformers
using as their plea "ocial JUSTICE
have had the coverage of the COM
p~ensation laws extended. Heavy
judgements are given in cases when
were never intended to sail within
the scope of workmen's compensation
An unmarried man is fatally mlur-
ed and, while dying, is married to
some gold digger. It's a rackel
pure and simple. Yet in New York
she IS entitled to compensation until
death or remarriage, and in Pennsyl-
vania to compensation for 300 weeks
| or until remarriage-
Such violations of the spirit OF the
! system are definitely harmful 70

HUGE PETITION PROTESTING PAY CUT READY FOR CONGRESS
Ancient Indian Peace Pipe
In Family 81 Years

WINCHESTER, Va, Jan. 2.
An Indian pipe of peace, hundreds
Of years old, and considered the
finest specimen yet uncovered, is
owned by DR.. A. D. Henkel, 73-
year-old physician Of Winchester.
DR.. Henkel has refused an offer
Of $500 for the pipe. He stated
that it was found at the mouth
Of Black Thorn Greek by a small
Negro girl in 1885.
The pipe has been in the Henkel
family for 81 years, having been
given to DR.. Henkel's grand
father, DR.. Solomon Henkel, by
Michal Hiveley, Of Pendleton
county, then a part Of Virginia,
but now in West Virginia.
The pipe weighs two pounds
and Is made Of stone. The bowl
measures five inches high with a
flat stem two inches wide and
one and one-Quarter inches at the
stem end. The stem is carved
with figures and other Indian
marks and has been highly pol
iShed.
Fifty years ago the Smithsonian
Institution sent a representative
to buy the pipe but all offers
were refused. DR.. Henkel permit

original pipe and this mold has

cured. As usual in such cases,
there was objection from some
few interested persons. At pub
lie hearing the Association was
able to convince the objectors OF
the great benefits that. would
come to all concerned, with the
result that the street was ex-
tended to connect up with Michi-
gan Avenue.
The organization actively sup
ported the widening Of Michigan
Avenue to Monroe Street, recently
completed by the District High
way Department, thereby greatly
improving one Of the main arte-
rial highways from Maryland and
the North into Washington. It
prevailed upon the Washington
Railway and Electric Company to
move all poles from the center Of
North Capitol Street to the curb
line. thereby eliminating serious
traffic problem.

While President Roosevelt's
attitude with respect to the
Government pay cut IS still un-
revealed, Government employees
today were planning to attack
the pay cut on several fronts.
First, the huge petition to be
presented to Congress by the
American Federation Of Govern
ment Employees was said to be
practically ready to take to Capt.
, tol Hill.
Second, the Civil Service Rein
statement League will hold. to-
night and tomorrow night, at
Thomson School, q conference
of numerous groups to determine
on common action against the
pay cut.
Support Enlisted
Third, the two principal organi'
cations of Government workers
have gathered data and friends
in Congress to push their cam
.paign for repeal of the cut at the
earliest possible date.
Further, both the American
Federation Of Government En-
ployes and the National Fedora
ton of Federal Employees are
strongly committed to the oppoSl-
.tion Of living cost data as a basis
for Federal salaries, though their
points of view differ somewhat.
The American Federation Of
Government Employees adopts the
attitude Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, with which it is
affiliated, that such a basis for
Government salaries ties in
Government pay with the past,
and makes no allowance for pro-
greSS.
The National Federation of
Federal Employees, on the other
hand, holds that Government
salaries should be stabilized and
not subject to fluctuations A
practical foundation for this idea
is the fact that fixed charges,
such as rent, interest and the
like, bulk. large in the budgets Of
Federal employees. especially in
Washington.
:, Many Signatures {.
. Details regarding the memorial
to be presented to Congress by the
A. r. G. E. have been rather closely
guarded, but it is known that the
petition carries the names of gov
ernment workers in all parts of
the country and in its territorial
possessions. Certain government
offices aboard are also represented.
The meetings tonight and to-
morrow night at Thompson School,
in addition to protesting the pay
cut, will consider means finding
new jobs for government workers
who were dismissed in the econ
omy program.

It is due largely to the effective
work of this citizens organization,
under the leadership of William
G. Henderson in its early history,
that extension of the sewerage
system, paved streets and side
walks. transportation, and educa-
tional facilities kept pace with the
development of that section of the
District of Columbia.
New Schools Pushed
Among the 13 major achieve
ments recently listed by the asso-
citation was obtaining funds for
the erection If lexington School,
and later the Emery and Gage, all
elementary schools, with an enroll
ment at present of 1900 pupils. A
more recent contribution to the
educational facilities of our city
was made by obtaining an appro-
priation of $215,000 for site on
T Street, between First and Sec
ond, upon which later the Nc
Kinley High School was erected at
a cost of $2.500,OO0, to which later
was added a public swimming
pool, the entire plant considered
one of the finest in the country.
Early in it's history the ASsocia-
tion was successful in having the
