Gab es ae |Qn November 3, next, the Chief Jus Investigation by Supply Board Re-|tice will enter upon his 75th yeat, veals Varjation Which Will Be {which calls to mind the fact that \three of the present members of the Corrected by, Changes: CHEYENNE, Wyo., Mar. 14— (Special.)—Good stenographers in Cheyenne are now paid at the rate ot $100 2 month; it is very hard to get experts along that line for anything less than that amount. That’s the finding of the state supply board, which has been investigating the mat- ter for the past several weeks with a view of determining how much salary the employes at the capitol are en- title dto. . Members of ¢he board, which con- sists of State Auditor I. C. Jefferis, State Treasurer A. D. Hoskins and State Engineer Jas. B. True, recent- ly went the rounds of the Cheyenne. business houses, including the banks, the railroad offices and the lawyers’ offices, and put a series of question: to the heads of those institutions. And they found that, whereas stenogra- phers used to be satisfied with $60 and $75 a’ month, employers now pay $100 ‘for the good ones, and are glad to do it. When the 1919 legislature created the board it gave it the authority to regulate the wages paid the employes at the state house—to increase the salaries of those who were found tc be underpaid, but more especially to cut down the salaries of those found to be overpaid. After having callea upon all the state officials for a list of their clerks, and after giving the matter careful consideration, the! bonrd! has adjusted \the pay rolls | with this result: Raises are allowed in several instances, but in no case will there be any decrease. It was found that some of the clerks have been receiving as low as $50 and $60 a month. i get more in the future. On the othei hand, those who have been getting $100 will continue to get that, and! no more. The board decreed that $100 shall be the maximum paid, a least for the next year or two. This! limit does not apply to heads of de | partments, as some of them are re ceiving as high as $125 a month. This is the first time in the hitory of the state that a serious attempt! has been made to equalize wages) throughout the capitol. | The action of the legislature in in- creasing the work day at the capito, from five and one-half to seven hour: —0or more than 20 per cent—will, it} is held by the board, more than make} up for-any salary increase granted. | It is believed that when the amount, of work now turned out daily is con- sidered the expenses of the various offices will be somewhat smaller than, they have been for the past. few years. ' Altho the work of the state is con-j stantly on the increase, there proba-| Bly will be no additions to the num-; ber of employes for some time to} come.

Probably jnéver before in the ‘whole history of lthe court has the age of the justices |averaged so high. 7 The oldest of the members is As- gaciate Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes who is in his 78th year. Next comes Justice dogeel McKenuna, who is 76. Justice William R. Day will be 70 next month. There is no power to force the re- tirement of any of these justices, bur should they choose to leave the su- jpreme bench ‘it will give the ne: (president of the United States nae 'to radically recast the tribunal. Ro mors haye been current: from time to time that one or more of the aged iustices intended to retire, but there ; ig no intimation that any of them wil) da so at the present time. | It is apparent, however, that the next administration will witness the disappearance from public life of sev- eral of these eminent publicists. A t power thus will be vested in |the hands of the next president. Be- fore the next administration comes to an end Chief Justice White will have passed his 80th year, which renders it a practical certainty that a new presiding officer of the highest court in the land will have to be selected by the next president. The honor and responsibility of naming the Chief Justice of this high jtribunal is given to comparatively few presidents. In the nearly 130 years which have passed since the su- vreme court held its first session in the Exchange of the City of New York, Beb, 4, 1790, 27 men have served as president of the United States, but there have been only nine men to serve as chief justice. Johr Jay, John Rutledge, Oliver Ellsworth, John Marshall, Roger Brooke Taney Salmon P, Chase, Morris R. Waite, Melville W. Fuller and Edward D. White formed the distinguished list. Marshall served the longest term,34 years. He and Taney together cov ered a period of 68 eventful years The senate refused to confirm the appointment of John Rutledge be eause his brilliant mind had showr. the court was short. Jay, Rutledge and Ellsworth pre sided during the administrations of Washington and Adams. John Mar shall was nominated by John Adam: just one month before Jefferson, who was antipathetic to him, was inaugu- rated. He presided during the admin istrations of Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, John Quincy Adams and Jackson. Taney was appointed by Jackson shortly before Van Buren’s accession to the presidency, and presided unti Abramah Lincoln’s time. It was hoped tial aspirations of of the state recently related. thati Salmon P.

IN THE SUPREME COURT WITH NEW ADMINISTRATION; CHIEF JUSTICE WHITE GROWS OLD [MANY CZEGHS MARTYRS IN WAR, SURRENDERED TO AID ALLIED GHOSE By FRANK J. TAYLOR. (United Press Staff Correspondent.) PRAGUE, . CZECHO-SLOVAKIA, (By Mail.)\—The “passive resist- ance,” as the war'time opposition of the Czecho-Slovak people to the old Austrian-Hungarian government is called, was an ‘exceedingly effective means of fighting the Hapsburgs, as after-the-war revelations show. Though the Czecho-Slovaks were suppressed too completely to revolt with force until toward the end of the war, they refused to fight for Austtia. Thousands escaped and joined the Russian, Italian and Frer armi t th cou Czecho-Slo the. | fuse nto the army > the front @n organized system of i surrendér was conducted. Represen tatives were sent out to show soldiers at the front how to surrender in groups without being killed. Jn a military way the “passive re- sistance” of the Czecho-Slovaks was as disastrous to the Austrian army as the enemies’ fire, according to of- ficers who had to deal with the Czecho-Slovaks. The Czechs demora- lized any unit they were attached to, und had to be guarded continually. Hundreds of Czechs refused to answer the Hapsburg call to service, and hid in cellars and in small towns or in the country year in and year out. From time to time they were eble to organize resistance to the Austrians but the revolts failed for lack of supplies. é Within the Czecho-Slovak area the people refused to subscribe to Austrian loans, and hid their money, gold and silver, until they could use it for the new republic. When the Germans food, the Czechs hid it. fused to work in factories used for war material manufacture, and de- liberately destroyed war machinery, to help the Allies.
