News Guild Increases
Wage Rate Demands
In New York Strike
BY the Associofsd Press


NEW YORK, Aug. S.-The CIO
New York Newspaper Guild has
withdrawn it's latest proposals to
the strike-bound World Telegram
and Sun and has increased its
wage demands
Officials of the New York Guild
telegraphed yesterday to Ezra
Bryan, attorney for the news
paper, that the Guilds proposal
last week on job security and
union security could no longer
form the basis of a settlement" +"
The management had rejected
the proposals, which the union
had called a major concession" ("
The Guild telegram said "the
World-Telegram and Sun unit (of
the Guild has made it clear that
the negotiators made concessions
greater than the unit desired"
Cost Of Living Cited.
The telegram said on the wage
issue: THE sharply rising cost
OF living requires that the Guild
position must no longer be what
it was when the strike began" on
June 13.
1T must also be obvious to you,"
the telegram said, that if the
strike and the rise in living costs
continue, the Guilds position
must be subject to further re-
vision"
No details of the Guilds posi-
tion on the wage issue were stated
in the communication.
A management spokesman said
the newspaper had no comment
on the Guilds telegram.
The Guild had asked at first
for an Is per cent general wage
increase. 1t later reduced the de-
mand to 10 per cent. 1t also asked
minimumS ranging from $40 a
week for office boys to $120 for
experienced newsmen. The top
minimum for newsmen in the ex-
Pn GU CO1lGIaCC was $llU.
$2-$5 Raise Offered.
Just before the strike started.
the newspaper offered a general
wage increase of from So to IS
q week, and increases in mini
NUNS ranging from 81 to $3.50 a
week.
The management announced on
Tuesday that 1t had closed the
newspaper plant for the duration
OF the strike. The big afternoon
newspaper had not published
since the strike began because
printers. stereotypers, presSman
and other mechanical and craft
employes-mostly AFL members
refused to cross the CIO Guilds
picket lines.
Some employees had been re-
porting for duty until the plant
was closed.

Labelling Law for Eggs

The Fort Davis Citizens Asso-

chat some of our purported

cracked up to be-"
Concerned over the absence of
a District labelling law for eggs,
the group adopted a resolution
asking the Commissioners to pro-
vide such regulation.
According to Mrs. Edward B.
Morris. president. the fact that
the District has no strict labelling
law gives some dealers an oppor-
tunity to sell Grade B eggs under
a Grade A label.
The Health Department here
does not dispute the fact that a
law is needed to overcome this
situation" he said.
The group also repeated its re-
quest TO the Board Of Education
that a site be purchased for a new
primary school in the general

The Commissioners agreed to-

whether Edward J. Kelly. special
assistant TO National Capital Parks
Supt. Irving c. Root. can take
Mr.. Roots place on the board.
particularly in the handling Of
swimming pools here.
Board Chairman Harry S. Wen-
der announced that the Commis-
sioners granted his request to seek
an opinion from Corporation
Counsel Vernon E. West as
result of the change ordered yes
terday by A. E, Demaray. asso-
ciate director of the National
Park Service.
The law specifically designates
"the superintendent OF National
Capital Parks. ex officio" as one
OF the seven members Of the
board, Mr.. Wender noted. Substi-
tuition Of Mr.. Kelly for Mr.. Root,
he said, raises a question that
should be settled Immediately SO
that there will be no debut about
legality Of votes Mr.. Kelly might
cast on the board.
Demaray Calls Choice Legal.
Mr.. Demaray's designation Of
authority" as received by the Rec
reation Board. empowers Mr.. Kelly
Ito act without reference to the
superintendent in regard to all
matters relating to the District
Recreation Board and to repre-
sent the superintendent as a men,
Der of the board"
The National Park Service Of
f1cial declared earlier today that
his appointment of Mr.. Kelly
was perfectly legal and based on
good administrative precedent"
He disclosed that he discussed the
matter some time ago with In
terror Department attorneys and
was assured he could legally name
Mr.. Kelly to represent Mr.. Root
on the board.
Mr.. Root. as the National Park
Service representative on the
board, always voted in support Of
the Interior Departments policy
for operation Of public swimming
pools here on a on-segregated
basis.
Root Has No Comment.
He said today he had no com.
ment on the designation OF Mr..
Kelly as his representative on
the board.
Mr.. Demaray explained that
as associate director of the
Park Service he is a representa-
tive on the National Capital
: Parks and that he can designate
any official of that agency to

. Board.
A protest against the substitu-
ton Of Mr.. Kelly for Mr.. Root

chairman Of the board. He also

one except the superintendent

AS the ride got under way. bells
tolled in the Church of the
Epiphany, BIT G street NV.
When Paul Revere reached
Fourteenth and F streets, the home
rule exponents, pleased by the at
tention he had attracted on the
trip, suggested he go back to Sew
enth street and ride again.
Police, who had followed the
rider, protested. They said they
had been told to escort Revere"
only to Fourteenth and F streets
and another squad car was stand
ing by to escort the horse back to
its stable.
At that point Culver B. Cham
berlain. president of the Central
Suffrage Conference, pulled out a
letter from Geoffrey M. Thornett,
secretary of the Board of Com
missioners. Mr.. Chamberlain
pointed to the passage saying
there was no law against riding a
horse on the streets Of Wash
ington.
The police examined the letter
and told the rider he could make
the trip again, but without po-
lice escort. The horse then was
walked back to Seventh street
where the demonstration ended.
Along the route were so mem
bers of the District League of
Women Voters, identified by arm
bands as Paula Reveres."
They helped the cause by dis
tributing home-rule literature
labeled Paul Revere rides again

The literature told citizens
where they may send contribu-
tions for pushing the home-rule
fight.

Paul Revere hit the road today
this time in the name of District
home rule.
One hundred and seventy-fiv
years after the anti-Redcoat can

spreading the gospel of the ballot
box.

the rest of the pier construction
is similar to the concrete con-
struction with which every side
walk engineer is familiar.
Mr.. Herman points to the most
interesting parts of the construc-
ton, the great concrete anchors
for the cables of the suspension
bridge. They are 149 feet long
rs feet wide. Pile drivers now are
sinking interlocking steel piles to
contain tine concrete.
After these great blocks are
finished by Frederick Snare. Inc,
of New York, the contractor build
ing the substructure for the sus-
pension bridge. another contractor
will build a wide island about
them. The necessity of the island
is obvious. If ship were to go
wrong in a fog and hit one Of the
cables of the bridge where it is
strung low to the anchor-it
would be just too bad.
The cables will be supplied by
the firm of John Roebling & Sons,
which puilt the Brooklyn Bridge
in 1888 and has made the cables
for just about every suspension
bridge on this side of the Atlantic
since.
1,600-Foot Span.
The span of the suspension
bridge will be 1900 feet, and its
clearance will be 1862 feet. It
takes cables 1900 feet long to
support a 1,60O-foot span. Mr..
Herman said, after doing a little
figuring.
There are $50 workmen on the
job now, according to Mr.. Her.
man. and this figure may be in
creased to 1000 during the good
weather. The safety record is
good, he said. They were appre-
hensive of drownings during the
cold and windy weather, but there
has been none. There has been
one death, however. A laborer
was killed when a steel pile rolled
on him at the assembly yard at
Hawkins Point.
One of the most difficult prob
lens of the construction is near
the Eastern Shore end of the
bridge where the channel of the
Susquehanna River, cut in an
other geologic period. still exists.
There the water is SO feet deep,
and the mud, 80 feet thick below
that. The mud must be removed
"a job that Merritt. Chapman,
Scott Is just finishing.
Then, at this 170-foot depth,
steel piles must be driven 130 feet
into the sand. It's not the tough
est problem bridge builder ever
had, but it is not an easy one.
