U.S JILL SET
STANDARD WAGES
As one step in stopping the ever
upward trend of prices and wages,
the Government proposes soon to set
a standard wage In each line of war
work. At the same time, a mora
careful checking on prices will be
attempted, and In so far as possible,
standard or fair price lists will be
enforced.
The standardixatlon of wages prob
ably will be undertaken In a few
weeks through Presidential procla
mation. By this means, a ship rivet
er In Newark. N. J, will get the
same wage as the riveter at San
Francisco, and so on through the
Government and private war work
factories of all kinds.
Heretofore prices have risen, and
wages have been boosted to meet
them. This process appeared con
tinuous. Now, it Is proposed to stan
dardize the wage; and If possible
stabilize, priced. Price fixing may
have to be more widely used. In any
event, U; Is likely that the Govern
ment will tell producers that, they
cannot have raw materials unless
they sell their goods .at a fair price.

Washington health officials today
believe that John R. Early, famous
leper, will remain permanently at Try
on, N. C. with his family.
Advices from the North Carolina
town are to the effect that Early Is
determined not to return to Wash
ington, and that his family sympa
thize with him in bis determination.
Hut AikPir Return.
According to Dr. William C. Fowler,
health officer fof the District. Early
could be returned to this city only
on his specific request. Even then,
permission would have to be obtained
from the surgeon general's office for
a waiver of Federal quarantine laws
forbidding interstate travel by per
sons afflicted with communicable dis
eases, and a Dermlt must be Issued
by the Dfstrlct Health Department al
lowing Early to enter this city. Dr.
rowler stated.
In the event Early voluntarily re
turned to this city he would be cared
for In the same manner as during the
past tn ears. 'District officials will
make no move toward his return here.
Meantime authorities at Trjon. N. C,
are wondering what to do with Early.
He Is now at his father's home In Tryon,
under quarantine, while some disposi
tion of bis case Is beirg discussed all
orcr the State.
