Commissioners Not to Act on
New Wage Scale Until
Employes' Body Sees It.
WOULD MEAN DEDUCTIONS
The new wage scale proposed for
District skilled and unskilled labor
ers, carry reductions to offset the ad
ditional bonus of $120 to be paid gov
ernment workers after July 1. will
not be acted upon by the Commis
sioners until it has been submitted to
the City Employes' Association.
This promise has been made to Jo
seph H. Hurley, president of the as
sociation. by Knglneer Commissioner
Kutz. Mr. Hurley was in conference
with the Commissioner yesterday aft
ernoon. An amicable settlement of
the dispute resulted after a confer
ence of more than an hour.
Strike Not Probable.
"Assurance has been given the men
in the District employ that the same
sciile of wagos now prevalent on the
outside would be given them by the
District Commissioners, thereby put
ting possibility of a wat^r supply
system strike in the background,"
was the statement made today by Mr.
Hurley.
The scale for mechanics ie $7 per
day. according to Mr. Hurley, and it
is at this scale that the men will be
employed. ? ?
While the present wages paid Dis
trict government employes include the
bonus of $120, it is the contention of
Mr. Hurley that the rates should not
be reduced to absorb the additional
bonus of $120, effective after July 1.
He would continue the men at their
present rates of pay and give them
the $120 additional after July 1.
Says Bonus Should Affect Rates.
The wage board takes the position
that the law requires the bonus to be
taken into account when the rates
are fixed. It has endeavored to so ad
just the rates that they will be com
parable to those paid at the navy
yard.
Mr. Hurley told Commissioner Kutz
yesterday that he thought the District
rates should be higher than those paid
at the navy yard, for the reason that
the navy yard workers enjoy advan
tages not possessed by the District
employes. He mentioned annual
leave, continuous work and a com
pensation act as the advantages of
working at the navy yard, which
should be balanced by a money con
sideration in favor of those working
for the District.
This consideration would be the
payment of the additional bonus of
$120.
Old Scale to Obtain Until July 1.
There was no indication today as
to when the Commissioners would act
on the wage board's recommenda
tion. The new scale will not go Into
effect before July 1.
The approximately 300 per diem and
monthly employes who are threaten
ed with reductions in salary by the
proposal to return them to the stat
utory basis, on which they were paid
prior to the war, were still much agi
tated today. It la staterf'that there
will be scores of resignations if these
contemplated reductions are made.

Bureau of Immigration Bates
Them as Perhaps Worn Than
Bomb Throwers.
"Philosophical anarchists" who do not
openly embrace actual physical attempts
against organized government are* de
nounced as perhaps more deadly In their
insidious propaganda work than bomb
throwers. according to a statement on
anarchism In the United States, issued
today by the bureau of immigration of
the Department of Labor.
Discussing the cases of nine of this
type anarchists arrested recently in Bos
ton. the statement refers to the under
ground and hidden methods by which
the seed of anarchy Is spread by those
who apparently do not believe In open
handed revolt against government or or
ganized institutions. It discusses in de
tail the edict of a ruling made last
week by Federal Judge Aldrich in Bos
ton, in which the judge sustained the
department in every point. In this case
eleven of these so-called ^'philosophical
anarchists" were arrested. Counts
against two of them were withdrawn,
but the action of the bureau of immi
gration in arresting and holding for de
portation the remaining nine men was
sustained by the ruling of Judge Aldrich.
The leader of these men Is one Luigi
Qalllani.
Asks Immigration Restriction.
Mr. Caminettl said today that no
extraordinary measures are being
'rken by the bureau to stop repetition
?II' the recent bomb outrages through
restriction of Immigration. (Recom
mendations have been made by the
Department of Labor, he said, at the
request of the bureau and other
agencies for the restriction of Im
?migrntion. A bill proposing such re
striction and regulation is now pend
ing in the House, he said.
4,000 Aliens Held or Watched.
Approximately 4,000 aliens, either
insane or proven to have commuted
some act against organized govern
ment, are in the custody pr under
surveillance by agents of the bureau,
Mr. Caminettl said. Many of these
are Insane persons, now In hospitals
or under observation, while others arp
classed as danwerous a1'"!'* <f
they are left at large might perpetrate
some such act .is me
j atrocity at the home of Attorney Oen
eral Palmer a week ago.
On account of the great stretch of
border to be patrolled between the
United States and Canada, Mr. Cami
nettl said It is entirely possible for
aliens to cross the border without
passing the scrutiny of Immigration
officials.
Fifty Cases Disposed Of.
Of the original fifty-four aliens sus
pected of I. W. W.'ism and taken to
Kills Island from, the . west, shortly
after the Seattle strike, the cases of
all but four have been settled. One
was released by the court on grounds
of Insufficient evidence, and three
others, for whom writs of habeas cor
pus were sworn out, are still pending.
Sixteen of the fifty-four did not con
test deportation and twelve were al
lowed to be paroled en their own
"good behavior."
