USr now questions from school
and college graduates, who are
~ starting out on their professional
or business careers, are scattered
among the usual questions about wed
dings and homemaking details.
Interestingly enough, the rules for
making a success of marriage or
making success in business are al
most identical. Yet the attitude of the
bride and that of the young business
woman seem conspicuously dissimilar.
In almost every case the young
woman who is going into business asks
for advice as to how she can acquire
proficiency in her job. In other words
she is very much concerned with her
own efforts to improve her potential
abilities.
Few brides, on the other hand, seem
to be equally concerned about making
a success of marriage. 1t is true that
young Mrs. Nuwed usually asks how
to be pleasant hostess, and how to
make friends in a new community.
But otherwise, the idea seems to be
that the success or failure of marriage
is in the hands of Fate.

C. |. 0. Takes Credit
For S380,00o,o00
In Wage Increases
Warns Lubor's Coins
Of Lost Four Months
Must Be Defended

During the first four months OF
ls41, the Congress Of Industrial Or
ganizations has won for American
workers wage increases amounting
to $3.50 0o0, 900 annually. the c. I. o.
Economic outlook declared yester-
day.
These wage increases will have
to be defended against encroach-
ments on several fronts 1t said.
Two of the most important ones
are rising cost of living, and in
creased taxation"
Industrial profits are running IT'S
per cent higher than in 1910. the
c. I. O. estimated. These profit
increases. it said. have greatly out
stripped the increases in pay roll
per dollar of shipment
The C. I. o. estimated unemploy-
ment in February at 9.574000, a
decrease of S per cent from the re-
vised January figure of 10.116000.
Since the start of the defense pro-
gram in May. 1910, employment has
increased 1.545 600, according to c.
I. o. estimates.
The Treasury's current proposals
for new taxation would "aggravate
the unduly heavy burden of taxa
ton upon the low income groups"
the c. I. o. charged, in criticizing
suggested increases in income levies
in the lower brackets, and in sales
taxes on specified commodities.
There are increasing indications
that serious shortage of steel is
impending" the Outlook declared.
These shortages are due to the fall
ure to plan adequately for expand
Ing steel demand, it asserted.
The Outlook called attention to
alleged determinations in defense
industries against Negro workers,
against aliens. and naturalized citi-
zens. The plight of aliens is one
OF growing seriousness" it pointed
out. increasingly unable to get
employment in private industry,
such persons are barred by law
from w. P A. employment and In
most States even from relief"

Bitter Bitten

When at mixed gatherings a guest
gets the floor and asks, Have you
heard the one about the travelling
salesman?" more often than not he
is heard with mixed emotions. But
for the benefit of, those who want to
unload on friends travelling sales
man story that is both unusual and
safe in polite society, the horrible
experience of the drummer who
called on James Plummer, magazine
editor in Ponca City, Oklahoma,
should prove serviceable. Grossly
understanding the strength of the
enemy, the salesman, who shall be
mercifully anonymous, made his
usual attack at the front door. To-
day he is a beaten, broken man, fur
lively sneaking away from the scorn
of his fellow-craftsmen. How it
happened he still does not know, but
in a few brief moments he found
himself outside, gazing in stunned
manner at an empty order book in
one hand, and in the other maga-
zine, which he had actually bought
from the editor for twenty-five cents
cold cash.

unanimous consent the Overton
formula, which would have made the
Federal share at this time $9,300,00O.
The proposal failed in the House.
Washington will continue to hope
that before another District bill
comes up the two houses will en-
deaVor to settle this question on a
basis fair to both the District and the
Federal Government.
All of the Senate increases in the
pending bill appear to be worthy of
retention, and this is particularly
true of the provision for ninety-eight
instead of fifty-four additional
policemen. With the rapid rise in
population, even this number is a
modest increase, when spread over
the entire city and assigned to three
periods of duty.
Of special merit also are the health
and welfare items, for the crowded
condition of the city adds to the load
on hospital and welfare institutions.
Another important item is an in
crease in the appropriation for be-
ginning a Northwest health center.
All indications are that the House
conferees, headed by Representative
MahOn of Texas, and the Senate
group, led by Senator Overton, will
settle their differences quickly and
get the bill to the President by
Tuesday, July l.

The District Bill

In adding S2,246,0OO to the Dis
trict bill yesterday, raising it to a
new high mark of Abs, ,686, the
Senate acted on the confident belief
of its committee that these addi-
tional improvements can be financed
without increasing taxes, due to re-
viSed estimates by District officials
of the amount of revenue they ex-
pect to collect.
1t is to be hoped that the House
conferees will go as far as they can
in accepting the Senate additions,
as to reject them would leave the
district with larger revenue cushion
than is needed to take care of de-
ficiencies later in the year. Senator
Overton, Democrat, of Louisiana told
the Senate there would still be ap-
proximately $5OO,000 for unforeseen
contingencies if all Senate increases
are allowed.
Washington has many unmet needs
today, resulting from the heavy de-
mands placed on all municipal
services by the influx of defense
workers. Senator Overton's sub
committee tried to meet as many of
them as possible within the present
tax structure and the existing Fed
eral payment of $6,000,000.
Obviously, the Senate was not in
a position to open up the question
of a more adequate Federal share,
with only few days remaining be-
fore the bill must become law. But,
it's acquiescence for another year in
the s6,OOO,OOO lump sum-which is
only II per cent of a s54,700,000
BILLS not to be construed as mean
ing the Senate regards that as fair
or permanent Federal payment.
On the contrary, the Senate reg
istered it's desire for a more equit-
able basis of fiscal relations earlier
in this session, when 1t passed by

each city Of $4,000 or more population
the Census Bureau set up metro
politan districts, which include adja-
cent civil divisions with a population
of $50 or more per square mile. In
some instances, two or more cities
have been included in a single dis
trict. The three metropolitan dis
tricts in Virginia, with their 1910
populations, are as follows: Norfolk
Portsmouth Newport News, 33O,396;
Richmond, 245,674, and Roanoke,
110,593. Part of the Washington
metropolitan district is also in
Virginia.
Maryland last year had an urban
population percentage of 593 per
cent, slightly less than in 1890. Like
the nearby areas in Virginia, Prince
Georges and Montgomery Counties
also shared in the population growth
of the District during the past
decade, reporting gains, respectively,
of 489 and 705 per cent.

Suggests Changing Light Timing
At Congested Intersections.


To the Editor OF The Star:
May I offer a proposal in re the
present deplorable traffic condition in
and about Washington?
I would suggest to allay the dangers
now existent with right and left turns
(in which the motorist on the partial
or full turn loses all right of way that
the eastbound traffic green (go) be at
least Is or 20 seconds ahead of the green
(go) for westbound traffic and the same
rule to apply on the north and south.
This SLOW" light would permit the in
tersection to be cleared by both pedes-
trian and motor traffic, and would stop
at least 80 per cent of accidents that
now result in right and left turns
against" traffic.
The slight congestion that ordinarily
would be caused by such an arrange
ment would be of little note; both the
motorist and the pedestrian would well
come the safety features to both.
I am not familiar with the "phasing"
of the signal cycle in the controller
boxes but from what little knowledge I
have assume the change could be made
with but little trouble and expense.
If I am not mistaken this method is
in use at least one intersection in
Georgetown, where there is considerable
left-turn traffic, and 1t works 100 per
cent. M. P. ROUX.
