The special meeting of the union painters to consider the compromise suggested by the master painters Sat- urday has officially been called for Wednesday night. The meeting will take place at the Knights of Columbus Hall on Tenth street. A delay was caused in calling the meeting because of the difficulty of getting a large enough hall. As there are about 960 men in the union, and they will have to be present on Wed- nesday night, under penalty of a fine, | PTO the hall at the union headquarters was not large enough. 2 In building circles today there was much discuseion over the understand. ing l!‘hlt - sidering a ralse of $2 a day. This would increase their pay fro!r,n 39 to $11 a day. No official confirmation could be obtained on this new demand. Shannon May Resign. There will be a meeting this after- noon of the Operative Builders. They are expected to reaffirm their decision against increased wages, and it is ex- pected that this decision will mean that Herbert C. Shannon, who was given complete charge of the strike situation for the employers, will re- sign from that office and continue to fight increased “wages in his former capacity as president of the rative Bullders. on It was learned today from officials of the Operative Builders that any proposed increase in wages to the painters would not be considered by them and that they will employ all available men at 39 a day. A special committee of the organization will also be appointed to arrange plans and take care of the situation brought about in the plumbing industry by reason of an increase granted to the union plumbers last week. The or- Sanization opposes this increase also. Straw, from which most straw hats GEN.

The third plane will be ready ftK delivery to the Navy about June Decision has not yet bees made whether to take along additional per- sonnel for the reserve ship, although it is understood another pilot and mechanic may be asked for. One amphiblan already has beer turned out for the Navy, but it em- bodies modifications over the Army plane, one of which now is in use and to date has proved very satisfac- tory. This plane has an inverted Liberty motor and two cockpits and can carry three passengers comfort- ably. The Navy's pla which was flown here Saturday, has three cock- pits, an inverted Packard 450 horse- power of recent development and can carry four passengers. The Navy preferred the Army type because the experiments and service tests had nounced it satisfactory and reiia- ble. The Navy amphibian has not yet been put through the usual rigid tests, but 1s scheduled to this week at the air station here under the direc- tion of Lieut. George Owens. These tests will determine the adaptation of the plane to Navy needs and will include flights for maximum speed at the surface of the ground or water; rate of climb per minute; maximum altitude empty and fully loaded and speed under these condi~ tions.
