Wage Increases and

corporation, largest subsidiary of
United States Steel, and the Column

Der of the same group, announced
wage increases averaging 10 per
cent and in some cases running as
high as Is per cent, which will add
about $50, 900 a year to the in

700 employees throughout the coun-
try.
Committees acting for employees
at more than a dozen plants rejected
the offer, demanding higher pay.
Negotiations in these cases are
therefore continued. ..
Directors of numerous big cor
porations authorized special divi-
dends to stockholders and wage bon
uses to workers that will release
many millions of dollars. This is
in pursuance of the policy of avoid
ing so far as possible the stiff levies
imposed on undistrib1ted profits I'M
der the revenue act of 1886; and

of improved business.

Navy and Army Growth
Noted in Reports

CECRETARY of the Navy Claude
- Swanson, who it is believed may
retire from the cabinet, made his
annual report to the President show
ing that the navy had made con-
siderable progress in its program to
build up to full treaty strength.
At the end of the 1886 fiscal year
last June 80, the secretary said,
the navy had under construction 70
vessels. Further, the 1887 appropri-
atoms act provided for the building
of 10 vessels as requirements for
average ships and for the begin
ming of construction in 1887 of two
battleships. The capital ships are to
be built only in the event battle
ships replacement construction is
commenced by great Britain or
Japan, the other signatories to the
London treaty of 1880.
The secretary emphasized the
need for auxiliary vessels, which
service and supply combat vessels,
as necessary to the maximum eff
cheney of the fleet. Present auxiliary
vessels are old and unfit and should
be repaced with modern craft, he
said.

plans for a conference between

supporters held a two day meeting

"The convention will determine

attitude of the executive council,
that will be one thing. If it shows

since the days of James Monroe,
for Mr.. Roosevelt captured the 523
electoral votes of 46 states. Only
Maine and Vermont, with five and
three electoral votes respectively,
were won by Landon and Knox, the
Republican candidates. Their pop
ular vote, when all returns are in,
and tabulated, may be sixteen and
half million.
The amazing New Deal landslide
is looked upon by most unbiased
observers not as Democratic party
victory, but a personal triumph for
President Roosevelt, an expression
of confidence in him and a recogni-
ton of the improvement in the coun-
try's business and industry. 1t was
so overwhelming that the President
may well consider he has been CIV
en- carte blanche to do as he pleases
in carrying his policies on to
their logical ends. What he may
please to do depends largely on
pending decisions by the Supreme
Court of the United States on New
Deal legislation.
President Roosevelt, moreover,
will have at his command a con-
gress more heavily Democratic
than were the last two, for the lin
gering hopes of the Republicans
that they could capture enough seats
to enable them, in conjunction with
conservative Democrats, to put up
effective resistance to New D al
measures, were not realized. The
New Deal majority in the new sem
ate will be about five to one, and
in the house it will be almost four
to one. The few Republicans will
be permitted to take part in debate,
but when it comes to a vote the
congress will be virtually a one
party affair.

Court Dism,isses
Cat Fanciers' Suit
To Put on ShOw
Injunction Had Been
Sought on Charges
Cages We're Taken.

Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat In
District Court yesterday dismissed an
injunction suit brought by the Colum-
bian Cat Fanciers, which charged 10
OF its members with conspiracy to
prevent a cat show scheduled for De-
cember 6.
The cat fancier group alleged that
the 10 defendants met secretly and
elected officers who now purport to act
for the club. In addition, Miss Mabel
E. Hitchcock, 1761 Massachusetts, ave
nue., the secretary, hid the clubs 207
cat cages, which are needed for the
show, the court was told.
After reading the bill and answer
twice Chief Justice Wheat inquired of
the litigants: Whats all this about?"
Apparently not satisfied with the
answer he dismissed the suit. The at
torney representing the complainants
said he had a good mind to take the
case to the Court Of Appeals, just as q
matter of principle"
The club also had charged that the
defendants caused its account at the
Riggs National Bank to be impounded.
It asked that the 10 dissenting men,
bers be required to surrender the cat
cages and to refrain from interfering
with the show.
A replevin suit for possession Of the
cages still Is pending In Municipal
Court and will be heard late this
month Or early in Decembee.

Grimes of passion, yes. But de-

unknown. Perhaps the police system
is largely responsible. The city is
divided into 20 districts or arrondisse-
ments. Each reimbursement is di-
vided into quarters. Each quarter has
its own police station. headed by
commissaire. Each commissaire has
a register of all persons living tenn
porarily or permanently in his quar-
ter. If you rent an apartment or
even a hotel room, you have to fill
out registry card for the police
before you are allowed to move in.
This registration card is kept on file.
and any facts learned later that
might be of interest to the police at
some future date are entered on your
card II you move from one arron-
dissement to another, you are not
allowed to take possession of your
new quarters until your registration
with the police commissaire in the
new quarter is completed. AS con-
sequence the police always have on file
the whereabouts of any person in
Paris. No wonder crime here Is
negligible thing. You are safer here
than in any city in the world"
That is. If you can avoid being
killed in traffic" We said moodily,

great capacity for affection. impress

moment his head restores his critical
faculty. his desire to argue, to reason,
to criticize cynically the emotions
that guided him a moment before.
Do you know why French cooking
has the reputation it has? Solely
because the Frenchman knows that to
live we'll one must eat well, to eat
well one must cook well. to cook we'll
one must have the best there is to
cook. 1t is as simple as that-in the
