NOT A DAIRYMAN: Dr.. R. E.

NOT A DAiR1MAN: DIR. K. e
Taylor, cognizant of the report
that he is dairyman, has a fl
nancial interest in the dairy bust
ness. and is imputed with suffi-
cicnt power to have passed the
anti-cow ordinance, states that he
owns no COW and that he has no
financial interest in a COW or the
dairy business. And SO he is not
the "niggcr" in the wood pile.
Let's look around a little more.
GOOD WILLS VACILLA-
TION: A man or an organization
sometimes wonders why he or it
doesn't have more good will. AS
to the individual, he is unable to
alalyze his own shortcomings and
his so-called friends don't dare
inform him about them until they
become peeved and then he isn't
in a position mentally to "listen
to a piece Of their mind.' And
he goes plodding YEARLY on, MAX
ing no progress.
WHY SUCH QUESTION? The
iva in making inquiry about a
lady applicant for d clerical po-
sition makes inquiry about her
civic contributions to commun-
ity. OF course the application zap
plies TO men as well as women
but it seems 4 little unusual that
Uncle Sam should PROFOUND such
query as the following unless it
has seen its mistakes and would
like to improve some in the type
of personnel:
"What contribution has he
made without financial gain to
himself to the well-being Of his
community or to some civic or
social group"
That's well put, to say the
least, and should mean much in
every walk of life. 1t is a good
analysis of person and his or
her attitude toward The world
and they that dwell therein.

Pacific coast means keeping an eye on Japan.

Speaking of Japan, 1t is said that the Chinese have given their opponents aSother jolt in the fight ing around Shanghai. It has be- come customary to regard the Chinese as pleasant, industrious and inoffensive laundrymen, and to assume that it is only mat ter of time before Japan will wipe them up and absorb them. In this connection, it might be a wise plan to dig up and re-read speech on Destiny, delivered a good many years ago by the late William Jennings Bryan. It was a masterpiece of elegant and elo- quent oratory, but the sum and substance of it was that you can- not tell by the looks of a frog how far he is going to jump. Someone will be in for trouble when China at length is in a pos ition to spring.

ROOSEVELT VET0ES
STRIKE LOSS BILL
Says q. S. Is Not Responsible for
Stoppage Of Work on Congress

President Roosevelt today vetoed a
House bill which would have conferred
Jurisdiction on the Court of Claims to
adjudicate a claim of $4,000 by the
McShain Co., Inc. for alleged losses
sustained in 1894 by suspension Of
work on Library Of Congress annex

1T does net appear" the President
said III a message returning the bill to
the House, that any act of the Gov
ernment contributed to bringing about
the strike or caused its prolongation.
There seems to be no reason why
the losses caused to the contractor as
a result of the strike should be as
sumed by the Government. This is
one Of the risks of the enterprise
which the contractor must bear"

MEMORIAL FIGHT
UP IN COMMITTEE
Commission Abolition and
Design Competition to Be
Weighed Today.

The House Library Committee be-
came involved in another controversy
today over the fate of the proposed
Thomas jefferson Memorial as it met
to consider one bill that would abolish
the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Com
mission and another that would open
competition for a new design for the
memorial.
The commission has approved a
Pantheon type memorial, designed by
John Russell Pope, to be erected on
the fringe of the Tidal Basin. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has recommended an
appropriation of $500,O0O to begin work
on the memorial. A subcommittee of
the House Appropriations Committee,
now working on the last deficiency
supply bill, however. has not yet re-
ceived request from Representative
Boylan, Democrat, Of New York, chair
man of the commission, for hear
ing on the s500,000 item.
The dispute over the memorial IS
largely confined to the Library Com
mittee. One group wants the COM
mission abolished and new designs
considered. Chairman Keller and his
supporters, however, believe that plan
is too drastic and that the commits
sion should be allowed to exist but re-
quired to consider new design pro-
duced by architects in open compete
ton.
The committee also plans to con-
slider a resolution of Representative
SABBATH, Democrat. of Illinois, author
izing acceptance by the Government
of a reproduction of the Columbian
fountain, which was one of the artistic
high lights of the Worlds Fair in
Chicago in 1893. The fountain would
be located on Federal-owned property
in Washington.
Chairman Keller predicted the reso-
luton would be reported favorably de-
spite the opposition Of the Commis-
sion of Fine Arts. He believes a
proper site for the fountain would
be in the vicinity of the War College
near the mouth of the Anacostia
River.

MINIMUM WAGE
FIGURES DEBATED
Difference of $3.50 in Two
Estimates for Beauty Shop
Groups Considered.

A difference of $3.50 per week In
their separate estimates Of the mini
mum cost Of living developed today
between employers and employees at
the first public hearing for the Mini
mum Wage Board. which will fix basic
wages for women and minor male en-
ployes in beauty culture shops
The employers. who are represented
on the board by Claude H. Woodward,
estimated the minimum cost of living
for their workers would be SIT week,
or nearly So a week higher than any
similar estimate made by employers at
any previous wage conference on other
classifications of workers.
The beauty shop employees. who are
represented on the board by Arthur
L. Schoenthal, submitted . budget
calling for no less than $2230 per
week to meet the cost of necessities for
maintaining health and morals. This
also was higher than the workers
budgets, which were, submitted in the
cases of retail trade clerks, public
housekeeping occupations and laun-
dresses.
The employer estimates provided
$8.75 a week for board and room. in
cluding two meals day, and added
an extra $125 a week for lunches, to
arrive at a total Of $40 a week for
lodging and meals.
The workers figured the minimum
price of rent at IS a week and meals
at 81 week. making total of $12
for board and room.
One of the principal differences be-
tween the two clothing budgets was
on the number of pairs of hose needed
per year by the beauty culture oper-
ators. The employers on the wage
conference decided that "a pairs Of
69-cent hose would be sufficient, max
ing a total annual cost Of $1656. but
the worker representatives insisted
that the workers should have So
pairs Of hose. of the same price class,
which would require the outlay OF
$35.88 a year.
The beauty culture shop operators
proposed to allow their workers $3.50
a year for personal care and cosmetics,
but the spokesmen for the workers
made a greater allowance for beauty
culture, entering claim for SIT year
for such personal upkeep.
The wage conference decided to hold
hearings each Monday and Tuesday,
from 10 am. to noon, until they have
arrived at their recommendations to
the board. The conference chairman
is DR.. Philip Marshall Brown, former
United States Minister to Hungary.
The other members Of the conference
are Mrs. Richard w. Hogue, Mrs. Will

and Miss Adell Burke, in addition to
