Servants
Wages Show
Rise of So
Voters League
Hears Talk by
G.. E. LansOn

The weekly wage paid for domes-
tic service, secured through the
District of Columbia Employment
Center, has increased from an av-
erage minimum of SO several years
ago to minimum between IS and
$6, c. E. Lamson, director of the
center, reported yesterday to the
Voteless District of Columbia League
Of Women Voters.
Mr.. Lamson, who discussed the
maid problem, said frankly that 1t
has been the experience of the
center that only substandard work.
ers will accept jobs at substandard
wages, and that a $5-a-week maid
usually is worth just that much to
the employer. He expressed the
opinion also that the center has
helped to raise the prevailing stand
ard of wages here.
Speaking at a luncheon meeting
at the Y. w. c. A., held under the
auspices of the leagues department
Of government and economic well
fare. Mr.. Lamson also was asked
to discuss department of labor for
the District and declared that in
his opinion such a department, prop
erly operated, would prove to be
beneficial.
Placement Mark Set.
Mrs. Philip w. Chappell, chair
man of the department of Govern
ment and Economic Welfare, pre-
sided, and Mrs. Bernard Hearn,
chairman Of the division on Social
Security, introduced the speaker.
Mr.. Lamson estimated that in
spite of the recession reflected by
the center during the spring and
summer months, between $4,000 and
10000 placements would be made
by the end of the year. Last year
placements totaled $4,000 and in
1888, $1,000. An all time high for
monthly periods was recorded in
October, he said, when 1888 place
ments were made.
A total of 1881 applicants for
jobs are now registered in the active
files of the center, he reported, and
added that this represents virtually
all OF the unemployed in all classes
in the District.
Employers Urged to Report.
Employers were urged to report
instances when labor, secured
through the center, is unsatisfac-
tory.
The speaker expressed the opinion
that the primary emphasis in an
employment center should be to get
jobs for people. "If you can't find
work for them," he said, then So
cial security is the next best thing
to tide them over"
The meeting was one in a series
OF group meetings of the various de-
partments of the league scheduled
for the first part of the week. Last
night Mrs. Edwina A. Avery spoke
on Uniform Marriage and Divorce
Laws" at the home of Mrs. Pearl
B. Klein and city-wide luncheon
meeting on child welfare is sched-
uled for today at the Y. w. c. A.

SOCIAL INSECURITY.

Those who complain about the
government collecting Social Security
taxes from employees and employers,
and then using the money to pay the
running expenses of the government,
instead of putting it in a reserve fund
to be used for the alleged purpose for
which it is being collected, are either
old-fashioned or they fail to under
stand how our present-day government
functions" writes Editor A. O. MoreauX
of the Rock County Herald, with justifi-
able sarcasm.
"It is true that insurance companies,
under laws passed many years ago when
New Deal policies were advocated only
by soap box orators on street corners,
are required to keep large part of
their premium monies in liquid reserve
funds. 1t used to be considered sound
policy for business concerns also to
have a reserve fund to be used in eX-
panding their business and in keeping
the wheels of industry moving and
employees working in dull periods. In
fact, it used to be considered prudent
for individuals to save a part of their
earnings during the productive years of
their lives so they could enjoy ease and
comfort in their later years.
But today such habits are as out
of-date as the red flannel underwear
of Grover Cleveland's day. Now, under
the infinite wisdom of the New Dealers,
prosperity and well being depends upon
spending, not merely all one earns,
but all one can borrow, beg or steal.
Moreover, the future must be mort
gagged, possibly to assure the present
powers that be that no one for gener-
ations to come shall acquire wealth,
but he compelled to spend for taxes
and debts every dollar that comes into
his hands.
This being the policy of the present
government, it would be highly incon-
sistent to put the money squeezed
from the wage-earners and employers
into reserve fund so it would be
available when needed for the alleged
purpose for which it was collected. To

GroWing Up With Your Child

and so far, the only baby in the family
it is probably true that he does get a
lot of attention from all members of
the family. Until the young mother
tells her story, we won't know whether
it is a case of an adoring grandmother
who urges mother to give him any,
thing he asks for, or the mother her
self who is overconcerned about him
and who has listened to his every word
so sympathetically that he has come
to lean on her too much.
Another possibility probability, ]
might almost SAYS that the child
hasn't suitable play materials, that they
are right for his age and stage of
ability. Young parents hardly ever
choose very wisely among the many
toys that confront them, and the
chances are that this child hasn't toys
that interest him. A three year old
and sand-box, for example, have a
natural affinity for one another, while
three year old and set of tinkertoys
don't fit SO well, because no three year
old has the motor control and patience
to work very long at a complicated toy.
Besides having unsuitable playthings,
this child is probably too much in the
society of adults. Grownups don't re-
alize what strain it is for young
children to adapt to surroundings and
persons on such a large scale, and
persons with such different ideas and
ways of acting from their own
Don't you agree that this child prob
ably needs other children to play with,
less attention from his parents, and
some suitable play materials?

ton, I desire to extend to you and
your staff, our sincere appreciation
for the fine cooperation which you have

our association.
We realize that this program is also
benefitting Ely and that you, through
the medium of your fine newspaper, are
able to tell your readers the results OBJ
tanned from our efforts.
We plan an extensive program in 1888
and ask that you offer suggestions as
to how we can make this program more
beneficial to those we serve.
With every good wish for the New

Major General Smedley d.
Butler does not mince matters
in his articles on the war stu
alton in Japan when he says
"do you want this country to
go to war with Japan? If not,
do something about it lest you
find your boy being blasted
with Jap bombs" He further
states that the U. S. has 5000
soldiers and marines in China
surrounded by milling armies
of China and Japan. He also
states that when armies of
hundreds of thousands of men
are fiercely fighting, they can
not take time out to play nurse
maids to few hundred for
eigners who happen to be in
the line of fire" He, with Gen
eral Hugh Johnson has re-
peatedly asked the administra-
ton to get the U. S. soldiers out
of China and that ''the only
war the U. S. has any business
in is one of self defense and to
hell with running all over the
globe butting into other
peoples battles"

so do not only wouldn't be carrying
out the governments policy of spending
and mortgaging, but it would set an in
consistent, and therefore bad example.
Having made it a crime for business
and industry 10 build up reserve funds,
how could the government consistently
do this? And, having sought to edu-
cate wage-earners that if they work
six hours day and five days a week
they should earn enough to live on, and
that the government will take care of
them when without work, or when they
attain old age, by taxing those who may
still have something to tax, it would
scarcely do for the government to set
an example Of frugality and saving.
True, the Brain Trust hasn't yet found
way to abolish the reserve funds of
the insurance companies, but through
taxation and Gripping industries in
which the insurance companies have
their funds invested, rapid inroads on
an accumulative basis can be made.

Band CONCERT
next SUNDAY
The Chamber Opera Company
Guest Artists for Municipal
Band Concert.

The Chamber Opera Company of
Chicago will again be guest artists for
the free concert by the Ely Municipal
Band next Sunday evening at o'clock.
The trio is composed of Robert Long,
the tenor who appeared here last winter
with broken arm sustained while ap-
pearing at Virginia in the afternoon;
Raymond Koch, a baritone of interna-
tional fame; Miss Maria Matyas, dram
attic mezzo-Soprano of the Chicago
Opera Company, who scored a hit on
her appearance here last winter;
Charles Lurvey, pianist and director.
The Chamber Opera Company is
about the same as appeared here at a
previous concert with the exception of
Mr.. Koch who is a new member of the
company. All are among the most
popular in Chicago and the people of
Ely are fortunate in being able to
listen to them.
In addition to this exceptional group
of singers and players, the Municipal
Band, under the direction of Frank
DiNino, has prepared a program of ex-
ceptional merit.

The order, closing the winter

furore among the people of the
state. The conservation COM
mission is being censured in
some quarters and praised in
others. The claim is made that
thousands of people out of
work are prevented from get
ting a few meals of fish and
that the shores of the lakes will
be Uttered next spring with
smothered fish because there is
no air brought to them through
holes cut in the ice by local
fishermen who catch one or
two northern pike. but furnish
air to thousands of fish that
would suffocate.

"HE CRIES ALL THE TIME"

"Is there some one at the Institute of
Child Welfare I can talk to about my
little boy?" young mother wanted to
know recently. HE cries all the time,
and can't figure out what's the matter.
He's just three years old I'm sure it
would help if I could talk to someone
about it, tell them just what our home
is like. know this mustn't go on"
This mother is very sensible in not
letting this condition go on. Gradually
she has become aware that her child
seems to cry more than other children
of his age. She is wise enough to re-
alize that she must find out the cause,
before she tries to stop this annoying
behavior, which is upSetting both her
own nerves and those of the little boy.
Ones first thought, in such con-
nection, is always-What about the
child's physical condition? Because a
well child is so much more apt to be a
happy child than one who is half all
ing! But that happens to be ruled out
in this instance, because the baby is
under the care of good child specialist,
who examines him every six months, at
the outside, and oftener if there seems
to be any reason for suSpecting that
anything is wrong. No, this trouble
evidently doesn't originate in physical
difficulty.
The next thing that strikes us-ex-
perienced mother and child develop
ment specialist alike-is the possibility
that the child is bored and unhappy,
and that he is seeking attention by
whining and crying at his mothers
heels. There's lot to be said for such
an explanation. If he is first baby,
