CHAPLAINS URGE ) PASSAGE OF BILL Seek “Tardy Justice” for Clergy Who Minister to Spiritual Needs of Troops. Pleading for tardy justice for Army chaplains, the general committee on Army and Navy chapiains today Is- sued an appeal to the House of Representatives to pass the Wads- worth-Morin bfll. The Senate has assed the bill with only one dissent- ng vote. The plea is made through Dr. W. S. Abernethy, chairman of the general committeo on Army and Navy chaplains, who was President Hard- ing's pastor at Calvary Baptist Church. “The general committee, which represents 32 denominations, is co- operating with a speclal committee ap- ointed by the Pan-denominational Bonterence on Moral and Religious Training, which asembled upon in- vitatfon of the Secretary of War, in dringing to the attention of the Con- ress the Wadsworth-Morin bill, which s designed to put chaplains on a parity with all other professional men in the military service,” sald Dr. n expl reeman, Bishop has in its mem- of V Francis .

C. BILLS GIVEN FAVORABLE REPORT IN HOUSE (Continued from First Pag ——mruel from Hirst Bage) Tenning prior to a court decision in 1915 of charging a commission for in- specting estates of his wards. Mr. Gibson also discussed certain phases of ! real estate practice here which he said should be looked into, including the charge for title guarantee, even when there has been no transfer or other transactions in the property within & year. During an explanation Mr. Blanton emphasized that Mr. Fenning had startcd soliciting the bond business to get one-fourth of the fee from the es: tates of his wards. Mr. Gibson stated that the subcommittee is convinced Mr. Fenning has been arbitrary in many matters. Cites Crowded Conditions. Mr. Gibson and Mr. Blanton ex- plained to the commnittee the de- plorable conditions they had found in the Police Court Bullding during a personal visit. When they told aobut 156 prisoners being crowded, irre- epective of color, into two small rooms, and some of them kept there from 8 o'clock in the morning to 4 o'clock in the afternoon without any place to sit down, practically every member of the committee commented that this should not be allowed any- where, especially in the National Capital. Mr. Hammer vigorously contended that there should be sep- arate quarters for white persons and colored of each sex and for consump- tives, and he demanded: “Why doesn’t Health Officer Towler do something about this?”’ Mr. Ham- condition existing anyvwheré and it ought not to be allowed here. In recommending a new Police Court Dbuilding as being the unanimous ao- tion of the subcommittee, Mr. Gib- son urged that all members of the committee should vislt the court and see for themselves. Representatives | Reed and Rathbone of Illinois argued for authorizing other quarters to be rented until more adequate Police Court quarters could be provided. Mr. Bilanton told the committee that at the hearing tonight he will produce witnesses to testify regard- ing a punishment post in the District jail to which a girl only about 16 vears old was chained with her hands behind her back for half a Qay. Bill Being Prepared. Mr. Gibson sald that testimony be- fore his subcommittee shows that there are 200 patients in St. Eliza- beth’s Hospital without commitment procedings, being received merely on a letter from some Government de- partment. He stated that a bill is now being drafted to correct that sit- uation and provide for proper com- mitment through the court in each case. Mr. Gibson next discussed the sur- prise visit by his subcommitte to the workhouse at Occoquan last Satur- day. He said that conditions found there for the women. are most ex cellent and he never saw_them better in any instituton. “We found 10 men with ankles shackled together and some with bands of steel on their ankles with a ball and chbain attached. It semed inhuman to the committee in this day and generation that any- where, especially in the Nation's Cap- ital, which is a model for the rest of the country, that there be such fnhuman practice. Some of these chainings had been on for two months —on one prisoner for 270 days.” Mr. lanton interrupted to tell of one man, who, he said, had served in France, who had worn these shackles riveted on his ankles for 128 days. Plans Arouses Ridicule. Mr. Gibson advocated a statute pro- viding that-an attempt to escape, which the reason why these prisoners had been shackled. should bo made a penitentiary offense. This stirred up objection and even ridicule from other attorneys on the commit- tee including Mr. Reid, Mr. Hammer and Mr. Rathbone. Mr. Blanton had other members of the subcommittee verify the fact that they found a white woman, 71 years old, confined in the workhouse for be- ing drunk, and that all four members of the subcommittee who visited Occo- quan had agreed that they smelled Svhiskey on the breath of the superin- tendent. Mr. <on announced that the sub- like suggestions any member of the committee 01 medial legislation. (nT'};‘:n he eaid “we find some of the District officials active in selling rup- plies to the District by firms in which they are interested. We find that Commissioner Rudolph has a. large in- terest in the Rudolph & West Co. which furnishes large supplies of hardware to the District,” and he argued that the law specifically pro- hibits such & practice. Charges Subterfuge Used. Ar. Hammer informed the commit- tee that he has received a long letter from | tempts to § in whieh Commissioner Rudolph at- stify this sale of supplies and quoted a ruling by Corporation Counsel Stephens. Mr. Hammer in- sisted that no director or manager of a corporation can hold public office and buy supplies from his own com- pany for the public he represents. e raid that the subterfuge of Com- missioner Rudolph in having an agent represent him at meeting of the cor- poration “is ipping the devil fround the stump.” He called Com- missioner Rudolph’s position in this matter “very bad practice, bad policy and worse morals. As a public official he shouldn't deal with himself. ~That is unprincipled and unlawful.” Mr. Rlanton stated that Commissioner Rudolph had testified that he received lary Fudolph & West Co. and that brother bank directors are interested in hotels which are selling space in the streets eab companies for exclusive use. . Gibson said that the subcommit- tee does not appear as condemning any onme, but will state its findings later in a full report in writing. Mr. Blanton and Mr. Gibson discuss. ed the buying of electric signal lights. Mr. Blanton claimed and Mr. Gibson concurred that specifications had been so drawn ‘that it was said that only one concern could bid on these lights and Mr. Gibson explained that the in- & tention was to have the system along Sixteenth street uniform. Mr. Gibson also advised the com- mittee that legislation is being drafted to limit the fees paid to guardians. He asked that time be extended for the subcommittee to complete its hear- ings. After some discussion this was done. Plan Hearing Tonight. 1t is the intention of the subcommit- tea to hold another hearing tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the caucus room of the House Office Building. Chairman Zihlman advised the com- mittee of the conference he had with Senator King, in which the latter sald that if a pending: resolution author- izing a joint committee of the Senate and House to Investigate administra- tion of municipal affairs during the o dividends regularly from the| time that Congress is not in session is passed. Senator King will get au- thority for a subcommittee of the Sen- ate to conduct such hearings and will invite members of the House commit- tee to sit with them. Chairman Zihlman then called up the bill for a new Police Court build- ing which he introduced a week ago, and after it had been amended to pro- vide that in a consideration of loca- tion, plans and specifications the Dis- trict Commissioners should have the advice and approval of the Fine Arts { Commission and of the chief judge of the Police Court and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, this bill was tavorably reported and made first or- 5 THE EVENTNG STAR, WASHINGTON, LEADERS IN BRITISH STRIKE SETTLEMENT Upper, left to right: Premier Baldwin, Winston Churchill and . 2 bert B e o rnid aad o B ’l";:'n n:;s : Arthur Henderson. Lower, left to right: Sir Her- der of business on next District Day in the House, Representative Keller, Republican, of Minnesota_then asked for a state- ment by Representative Gilbert, Democrat, of Kentucky as to whether the court should not carry some of the responsibility under charges lald against Commissioner Fenning. Mr. Glibert stated that it is the unami- mous opinion of the Gibson subcom- mittee that there has been no corrup- tion on the part of the court. Thinks Court Careless. He said he is more severe in his criticism of the court than other members. He thinks it is the unani- mous opinion of the subcommittee that the court has been careless, and it is his personal opinion that there has been ‘great carelessness, gross favoritism, coupled with arbitrary and tyranical action.” He sald that if there is no law fixing Mn Fen- ning’s commission, and the court has agreed to those commissions, and if they are excessive the court is to blame. He sald that if bonds are too great and the court fixes the amount of bonds, then the court is to blame. Again he said that if such practice as has been charged against the Com- missioner I8 against the law, then the court is to blame f8r carelessness. “In many instances the court is to blame,” he sald, “because it goes ahead of the auditor directing him what to do, not only directing him to allow a commission of 10 per cent, but figuring out the amount.” In reply to questions by Represent- ative Houston that Judge McCoy had testified it was the duty of the court to fix commissions, M Gllbert re- plied *but not to audit the bills. It was the duty of the auditor to find out the facts and the duty of the judge in tho light of those facts to fix the commission, but not without hearings.” Gilbert Censures Court. Mr. Gilbert censured the court as being “very culpable in the favoritism of Chief Justice McCoy toward Mr. Fenning.” He referred to one case in which he sald Chief Justice McCoy appointed Mr. Fenning as receiver over the strenuous objection of one party to the litigation when the other party had not consented. He said that if Mr. Fenning had acted his feo would have been very large and the work very small. He stated that the parties to this litigation, by reason of Fenning's appointment and as the only way to keep their property out of Mr. Fenning's hands, had compro- mised the case, and quoted testimony hefore the subcommittee that when the case was settled Chief Justice Mc- Coy had remarked, “I am sorry my friend Fenning cannot get something out of this.” Mr. Gilbert said that an attempt had been made to show that this had been said facetiously. “If it was sald facetiously, at least it was tactless when Mr. Fenning had been appointed over protest,” he sald. Gilbert cited two cases to ex- WAGES IN ENGLAND AND U. S.

Following are comparative statistics on average weekly wages in the United States and Great Britain, it being pointed out by the Bureau of Labor Statistics that in some instances American wages are actually higher than quoted here: Trades. Machinists .. « Iron Moulders ... Patterns Makers Average Textile Workers Bricklayers Masons . Plumbers Carpenters Painters plain what he considered “arbitrary action” of the court. In one of these he said that a man had been put in jail for three months because he did not pay a debt which the court after- veard decided he did not owe, and he gave the details of the Brosnan case as testified to before the subcommit- tee. In summing up he said that for contempt of court there is unlimited authority to put people in jail here for an unlimited period. Mr. Blanton put before the commit- tee the agreement of at least three members of the subcommittee that there is no question of the integrity of the court. On report of Chairman Stalker of the subcommittee on streets and high- ways, the committee ordered a fa- vorable report on a bill authorizing the opening of a street from Georgia avenue to Ninth street to relieve traffic congestion near the base ball park. Houston then recommended action on the bill authorizing erection of a new building for a nurses tralning school at Columbia Hospital and Ly- ing-in-Aslyum at a cost of $300,000. Mr. Keller, as chairman of the sub- committee which considered this bill, called attention that three different agencies are interested {n that insti- tution. He said that the buildings and land are owned by the. Federal Government, the plant is operated by private parties and the people of the District benefit largely. He had no objection to the building being built, but argued that either the Federal or the District government should take over the plant and operate it. Mr. Gilbert said that since the Fed- eral Government owns the land and other building, the new building to replace the the one that was con- demned should be erected by the Fed- eral Government, and that the policy of who should administer the institu- tion ought to be decided later. The bill was ordered faverably reported. 3.

The general strike was called off with the same dramatic suddenness that marked the country’s plunge last Monday midnight into the first uni- versal trades union upheaval in Great Britain's history. Through eight busy and anxious days the strike had proceeded with no_solution of the problem in sight, and with both the government and the Trades Union Congress obdurate in thelr determi- nation to fight to the finish. Neutrals Sought Peace. Peace efforts were being made con- tinually by neutrals, but they pro- duced no tangible effects until last night. In the early hours of this morning it became apparent that there were strong possibilities of peace on the basts of calling off the general strike. This became more certain to close observers as the morning advanced, with full-dress meetings at all the labor headquarters. Then, shortly after noon a high labor official informed the Associated Press that he had reason to believe the strike would be called® off today. Almost as he was speaking it subse- quently developed, the Trades Uplon A, [ Congress general council was making its decision known to the cabinet in Downing street. Asks Malice Be Avoided. Announcing to the House of Com- mons this afternoon that the general strike had been called off, Premier Baldwin said he and his colleagues would make immediate efforts to ef- fect resumption of negotiations be- tween the miners and mihe owners with a view to securing the earliest possible settlement. The premier continued: “I will only add this to what I have to gay to the house at this moment— that the peace, that I believe has come and the victory that has come are the peace and victory of common sense, not of any one part of the country, but of common sense on the tpart of the whole United Kingdom, and it is of the utmost importance that the British people should not look backward, but forward. “We should resume our work in a spirit of co-operation, putting behind us all malice and all vindictiveness.” House Crowded Early. The house was packed to overflow- ipg_when Ramsay MacDonald, the leader of the Laborites, rose and asked the premier whether' he had any statement to make regarding the in- dustrial situation. The Prince of Wales and his brother, the Duke of York, were again in the peers gallery, as they have been at every session since the strike started. The settlement was known in the commons before the premier's formal statement, but the effect on the housq was electrical. Those in' the lobby. could hear a buzz of excitement and some individual cheers from behind the doors, which were kept locked until after. the prayers.

ENGLISH PAY SCALE ISFARBELOW U.S. Craftsmen Get Only 25 to 40 Per Cent of Wages in This Country. In the principal trades and crafts in Great Britain the workers receive but 256 or 40 per cent of the average wages pald workers in the United States. Reliable figures made public by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and Wash- ington builders show that in most of the crafts the English wage earner receives less than $20 a week, while the comparative American wage earn- er receives on an average of between $50 and $60 a week. Experts at the Bureau of Labor Statistics explain that the reason the English workers can subsist on the low wages they recelve {8 not be- cause living costs are decidedly be- low those prevailing in the United States, but because they have accus- tomed themselves to a frugal standard of living. It is stated that the pri- mary reason for the labor upheaval is that the Britich craftsmen desire to elevate their present standard of ltving. Comparison by Trades.
