MINIMUM WAGES

Seamen Must Do Better

Minimum wages ranging from $35
to $500 month will go into effect
November for officers and crews of
155 Observation-Disclosures vessels in
the merchant marine.
The scale, announced last night by
the Maritime Commission, affects
every ship employe from bell boys to
licensed engineer officers.
Chairman Joseph P. Kennedy of
the commission said also that cleaner
and more comfortable living standards
will be required for the 10000 men in
cluded in the order.
While taking heed of seamen's COM
plants of low wages, vermin-infested
and unventilated quarters, Kennedy let
the men know the commission wants
to hear better reports of their work.
Seamen's conduct, even on first
rate vessels, has grown so bad, he
said, that passenger complaints pour
into commission offices steadily. He
blamed lack of discipline" for part
Of the trouble.

The wage scales. Kennedy said, are
about the same as those now specified
in collective bargaining contracts in
force on the West Coast and generally
are somewhat higher than East Coast
scales. Under the commissions or
der able seamen and firemen will get
$72.50 month. Board and lodging
are furnished in addition.
New In shipping circles was provi-
sion that unlicensed personnel (all the
crew except officers) shall be given a

succeeding years. Two-week vacations
are ordered for officers.
Conditions aboard the S. S. Algic, a
RGNc1ment-owned ship, which docked
at Baltimore Wednesday after South
American voyage, pointed up the labor
situation. The ships log showed three
sit-down strikes during the trip.
Kennedy said the Algic situation
was "scandalous.".

States. Here he has carefully
housed many of the champions Sc
lected at recent pigeon shows in
New York and London.
World Champion
Among Mr.. Hanson's flock is the
champion fan-tailed silver hen in
the world, a bird he raised him
self. To him this bird is no diff
ferent from the rest. He knows
it, as he does the many others, by
the color and numbered band on
its leg.
Sweetheart" and "Boy," the
only names he has attached to the
birds, designate the female and
male, respectively.
A rare shipment arrived at his
home last week. They we're sent to
him from Gillimham Kent, Eng
land, by Hugh Gordon, past presi-
dent of the British Fan Tailed
Pigeon Club, who is widely known
as England'S outstanding pigeon
fancier and breeder.
Proud Birds
Included in the group were two
birds selected as champions of
their class at a show held in the
Crystal Palace in London, a short
while before it was razed by fire.
Both birds are cocks. One is a
white fan tail and the other blue
saddle fan tail. They will be used
for breeders.
Today, Mr.. Hanson, who is past
president of the Eastern Fan Tail
Pigeon Club of America and is
present director of the American
Pigeon Club, will tell his visitors
in an unasSuming manner that he
loves these birds not just because
they are pigeons, but because they
are proud birds and they are cham
pions.
Often Temperamental
They are temperamental, like a
race horse, he says, and at times
will show off more in the loft
than at the desired time in an
international competition.
The Times photographer who
made pictures of the birds, will
confirm that. With head reared
back, they strut with an air en-
tirely apart from the world about
them and present an animated
problem even for an expert Pho
tographer.
