MEXICO CITY, December In- cessant activity has been noted re- cently in the crater of the voleano Popocatepetl, the majestic peak which dominates the capital and the Valley of Mexico from a height of nearly 18,000 feet, but there is no in- gication of danger to the inhabitants of the surrounding country, according to experts of the Natlonal Geological Institute. i Scientific observations throughout the world have demonstrated. the ex- perts say, that continuous explosions, such as those occurring in Popoca- tepetl, at the rate of about a dozen a minute, do not result. in disastrous | sruptions, which occur when the vol- | canic activity is confined to a single sreat outburst. |2 Explorers just returned from ex- | peditions far up the slopes of the bking Mountain,” as it was named the Aztecs, declare they were un- able to ascend beyond the snow line because of rushing torrents result- ing from the melting of snow and ice by the heat within ‘the cone.

Craftsmen in' the Washington navy vard and other navy yards through- out the country feel that they are underpaid, as compared with work- ers on the outside, and are gradually pressed under by the rising cost of living, according to statements made by witnesses today before the Navul General Wage Board of Review, which is considering the fixing of wages of such emploges for the next calendar year. In order to get what they feel they are entitled to, the representa- tives of the tradesmen who spoke be- fore the board today stated quite frankly that they were perfectly willing to take a chance on having some of their fellow workmen thrown out of employment in order that the rest might get what they feel they are justly entitled to. The hint was dropped yesterday that an increase in the wages to the employes might be followed by a re- duc n in the number employed, and practically every witness this morn- ing seized on.this point. The speak- ers contended without exception that they are entitled to the rate of pay for similar work don n the outside and that the Naval W Board has no right to donsider whether an in- crease in pay would necessitate a re- duction in the force Local Navy Yard's Plea. The plea of the machinists Washington navy yard will sented this afternoon by N. N of the International Association of Machinists and William G. Gathe, chairman of the wage board at the gun factory here, which aiso includes of the Indian Head M4.; Dalgren, Va., and Bellevue, D. C. They will ask for an increase for high-class machinist from the present rate of 30 to 90 cents an hour. It is the duty of the Wage Board to fix such wages among the mecha jcal fordes in the naval establish- ment as will keep the right class of mechanics in the Government serv- ice and not force them into outside employment, J. N. Davis of the Inter- national Brotherhood of Bollermak- ers told the board. Consideration, he said, must be given these skilled men. They are entitled to a sub- stantial increase in wages and will be satisfied with nothing less. Mr. Davis pointed out that un- doubtedly the Butler bill providing for an expenditure of about $18,000,- 000 on mnaval ships would soon be passed by Congress and that the Gov- ernment must encourage its efficient mechanical personnel to remain in the service. He said that it is im- ible to get boilermakers into the navy yard at 80 cents an hour. Philadelphia Man Heard. Robert S. Hopkins, from the Phila- delphia Navy Yard, told of the inabil- ity of officials there to get boiler- makers at 80 cents an hour in order that they might have enough of these skilled men to put the “rum flee commission. It was necessary, said, to use men of other crafts, al- ready in the yard, on bollermakers’ work, and ‘this has caused no end of trouble in the union. James O'Connell, president of the metal trades department of the American Federation of Labor, also stressed the importance of giving consideration to the matter of wages alone, and not as to whether such in- creases would require a reduction in force, Efforts will be made by Admiral C. E. Block, chalrman of the genearl board, to complete the taking of tes- timony today, and to that end the board will sit during the afternoons and into the evening. Admiral Block said that as soon as all the data are in the board will meet in executive session, and he hoped to have the re- port ready by December 15 in order that the recommended Scale may go into effect on January 1 next. in In the American offices and stores in China the girls are sllowed Sun- day as a day of rest, but in the Chi- nese stores they work as on any other day of the week. y You’re Tired —Out of Sorts — Have No Appetite Your Liver Is Sluggish CARTER'S LITTLE LIVER PILLS will help put you right in a few days.

Dr. John Roach Straton, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church and a fundamentalist leader, said last night, addressing tha Baptist Bible Union of Nortk America, and alluding to an address delivered last Sunday morning by John D. Rockefeller, jr., before the Men's Bibie Class of the Park Ave. nue Baptist Church. In that ai course Mr. Rockefeller praised the religion of today in contrast to the religion of 100 years ago, and de- clared that “adherence to the literal interpretation of the Scriptures is in- creasingly less possible in view of the discoveries of a science.” The truth of the matter is that the kefeller money is the greatest curse that rests today upon the Bap- tist denomination,” Dr. Stratton de- clared. ing it at this time at 54 E.
