Labor Prepares to Voice Demand
 for Hike in Pay
By HERBERT HUMMER

WASHINGTON, April 30.-Lead- CTS of organized labor are quietly making plans to launch a drive for wage increases in industry after the tax bill now before Congress is enacted into law
 Convinced that under the new law imposing levy on corporation surplus, the tendency will be to pay out surpluses in dividends instead of letting them accumulate, labor spokesmen raise the question of why these funds should not be used to increase wages.
 "A large proportion of all divi- dend payments" one leader de- Iclares, goes into reinvestment, for those who receive the largest divi- dend payments are persons who al ready have incomes far beyond their needs. Wages, on the other hand, go directly into the purchase of goods, for those who receive them are sin too great need to save"
 The position of labor is that lit- tie has been done since 1883 to in- crease wage rates despite the fact a large part of industry again is on a profitable basis.

Advance Ideas Announced by
 Army Air Corps Safety of Range Airplanes Increased by New
 Device

DAYTON, Ohio, April 30. Ad- vance aviation which does away with carburetors and increases safe ty and range of airplanes is an- nounced at the Material Division of the U. S. Army Air Corps at Wright Field.
 Twenty-Five military planes are to be equipped with injectors which, acting as a substitute for carbure- tors. will shoot slugs of gas about the proportions of the little finger. The slugs will be shot separately into each cylinder just before fir ing.
 The army has been working on the idea since 1924, when it's auto maton of steel which defies gravi- tation in the uphill flow of gaso- inc was suggested by carburetor troubles. Fighting machines had flying upside down injector equipped planes which used seven percent and upward less gas than those equipped with the same engines and ,arburetors. Injectors give each cylinder exactly the same shot of fuel whereas it varies with carbu- retorS. Injectors also cut down on the danger of fire as backfires are impossible with them The gas is shot into the cylinder under a nozzle pressure of 250 pounds.

UNEMPLOYMENT CLAIMS
 AGREE

Labor spokesmen point to the fol- lowing statistics:
 The 712 cent wage increase in the six months from June to December, 1883, was followed by an increase of Az cents during the remaining year and half under NRA The average hourly wage rates. there fore, at the end of NRA in June, 1885, were at 57 cents compared to 52l2 cents in December, 1883.
 After MIRA, wage rates declined to 56 cents in December, 1885. They rose to 56A cents in January, 1886
 To industrys argument that the way to increase the workers buying power is by Unemployment, labor agrees that it has been so increased in the last three years. However, labor leaders say unemployment never will lift workers buying pow CT in proportion to the steady rise in their producing power, and that without this balance prosperity can not live. nor can poverty be perma- nently lessened.
 From 1884 to 1885" they say, workers producing power per hour of work increased per cent, but the real wage per hour of work decreased ? per cent"

Admiral Standley Presents British Activities
 for Purpose

WASHINGTON, April 30. - Ad- niral William H. Standley made for nal mention of Great Britain's plans o build two new battleships in 1887 and asserted this would justify American construction of a simi- lar number.
 The Acting Secretary of the Navy made the statement to newsmen in commenting on legislation now be- ing drafted which would authorize TWO new vessels if the President sees the need for them.
 The proposed Navy Bill for $549,- 100000 does not provide for the new ,attleships. The bill is now in the House and it is believed provisions for the two new battleships might )e inserted in the appropriation bill when it reaches the Senate.
 The vessels would cost between forty and fifty million dollars each.

Flames were first discovered by Mir Dodson, who lived alone in the house. when they burst through the roof.
 A previous residence occupied by MT. Dodson on his stock farm at Eagle River was destroyed by fire about four years ago.
