LIVING COST SOARING
Men Making Less Than $l5O
a Month Not Getting
Enough Says Official.
WASHINGTON. D. U. Feb. 19
The necessity for increased wages for
railway employes has been conceded
by representatives of a majority of
the railroads of the United States
appearing for the first time before
the government’s railroad wage com-
mission. They said they came not to
oppose requests of the employes but
merely to aid the commission by giv-
ing information.
"Officials need no evidence that
the cost of living has increased and
that the low-paid man needs assist-
ance during the war” declared J. W.
Higgins of Chicago executive secre-
tary of the Western Association of
Railways shipping for the roads of
the western district.
•"No one recognizes mure keenly
than the managements that there are
numerous classes of employes not
properly compensated” was the
statement made for the eastern ter-
ritory by John G. Walber of New
York secretary of the bureau of in-
formation of eastern railways.
F. W. Brown of Washington as-
sistant to the vice-president of the
Southern Railway did not touch on
the need for wage advances but
agreed that conditions outlined in
other sections applied equally to the
South. The railroads in the eastern
and western territory pay 65 per cent
of the money earned by railway em-
ployes in the United States.
Mr. Higgins’ assertion that the
1 >w-paid man be helped drew from
Secretary Lane chairman of the
commission a query as to what he
considered a low-paid man.
What Is Ix>w Pay?
T would say that all men receiving
under $l5O a month need more
money to meet the advance in price
of necessities.” Mr. Higgins replied.
“Perhaps the limit of those w ho need
help should be raised to $2OOO a
year which seems to be the line
drawn by the government in the in-
come tax law. The greatest advance
should be given to the men making
less than $lOO a month. Those fel-
lows must be having a strenuous
time.”
“The $2OOO limit would include all
laborers trainmen brakemen me-
chanics and clerks and a great many
engineers and conductors” com-
mented Mr. Lane. Mr. Higgins
agreed that was true. He did not
suggest any definite increase but re-
marked that par haps the increased
living cost should be borne for the
distressed employed during the war.
Both he and Mr. Walber asserted
that the managements have not been
unmindful of the welfare of their
employes in the past and have given
aditional pay where their finances
permitted.
All the speculators were careful to
state that they made no distinction
between union members and unor-
ganized employes. The course of
wages was declared to have been up-
ward since 1910. when the concerted
form of demand was first used by the
brotherhoods. Especially since 1915
the ascending trend has been notice-
able according to the speakers..
officials' Pay Included.
In reporting their wage increases
some of the nine representative roads
included the pay of officers in the
total. Mr. Higgins said however he
thought the officers had received few
increases and called attention to the
highest average. $lBO reported by
the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul
which did not include officers in its
report.
“Ho you think any of these offi-
cers ought to have their salaries re-
duced?” asked Commisisoner Mc-
ChorcV
“I am not in a position to answer
that” Mr. Higgins said. “I think
that after spending a life-time ac-
quiring knowledge and experience a
man is entitled to compensation.”
Both Mr. Higgins and Mr. Wal-
ber recalled their own experience.
They began as office boys. Frederick
W. Lehman counsel for the com-
mission asked Mr. Higgins about the
Easy to Make This
Pine Cough Remedy
Thonwnndg of families swear by Ite
prompt result*. Inexpensive
and sates about $2.
You know that pine is used in nearly
all prescriptions and remedies for
coughs. The reason is that pine con-
tains several peculiar elements that
ha\e a remarkable effect in soothing
and healing the membranes of the
throat and chest.
Pine cough syrups are combinations of
pine and syrup. The “syrup” is usually
plain granulated sugar svrup. Noth-
ing better but why buy it? You can
easily make it yourself in five minutes.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy. put 214 ounces
of Pinex (60 cents worth) in a pint
bottle and fill up with homc-mado
sugar svrup. This gives you a full
pint—more that vou can buv readv-
made for $2.50. It is pure good and
very pleasant—children take it eagerly.
You can feel this take hold of a cough
or cold in a way that means business.
The cough may be dry hoarse and tight
or mav be persistently loose from the
formation of phlegm. Thecause is the
Mme —inflamed membrane*—and this
Pinex and Syrup combination will stop
it —usually in 24 hours or less. Splen-
did. too. for bronchial asthma hoarse-
ness. or anv ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com-
pound ot Norway pine extract famous
the world o\cr for its prompt results.
Beware of substitutes. Ask vour
druggist for “2 1 «» ounces of Pinex”
with directions and don’t accept any-
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso- i
lute satisfaction or money refunded. I

“There are few boys employed now
except as fnesesngers” he replied.
"The federal law interfered with
their employment in other capacities.
I was switching cars w hen I was 17
■but the age limit now is 21. Women
arc being employed as clerks and to
some extent in other capacities. They

TOWNES TO SUGGEST
TWO ADDITIONAL MEN
ON DISTRICT BOARDS
Local Boards to Reopen All
Claims for Deferred
Classification.
AUSTIN. Tex. Feb. 19.—As a re-
sult of the conference held here by
the four district exemption boards
with Maj. John C. Townes Jr. sup-
ervisor of the selective draft in
Texas he will recommend to Gen-
eral Crowder provost marshall gen-
eral. that the membership of these
district exemption boards be in-
creased from five the present.num-
ber to seven. It developed that the
vast volume of work before these
boards proved too much for five
persons hence the increase is to be
recommended.
It was also decided to instruct all
local exemption boards to reopen
and reclassify all claims for deferred
classification because of claims of
marital dependency growing out of
marriage which were effected since
May 18 1917.
In the past it has been up to the
registrant to prove that he did not
marry to avoid service in the army
but now the burden of proof is to
be shiften to the government.
It was also decided at this con-
ference that in cases where mem-
bers of local exemption boards arc'
also county officials to give them an
opportunity tn resign. In many in-
stances it developed these county of-
ficials were embarrassed in reach-
ing conclusions because of the fact
that they held county offices al-
though in the majority of cases tins
fact was not taken into considera-
tion.

Tried in June.
AUSTIN. Tex.. Feb. 19.—August

ining trial before United States Com-
missioner Thompson and was re-
leased on a $5OOO bond for his ap-
pearance in June. Faulke is c harged

is alleged that he adversely criti-
cised and belittled the work of the

mann of Washington county charged
with the violation of the Espionage
Act were released each giving a

FOUR CAMPAIGNS OF
WAR NATURE UNDER
WAY IN THE STATE
Health and Sanitation and
Increased Prodaction Are
Being Urged.
AUSTIN. Tex.. Feb. 19.—Four
campaigns of a war nature are be-
ing conducted by the State Council
of Defense according to Judge J. F.
Carl of San Antonio secretary of the
council who was here for a confer-
ence with the governor. The cam-
paigns are for health and sanitation
increased food and feed production
labor mobilization and some of edu-
cation on war causes and war needs.
The health and sanitation cam-
paign is under the direction of
Charles Seville with headquarters at
Dallas who is working in co-opera-
tion with the state and federal
health authorities. Special attention
is being paid to the question of
health and sanitation at the various
army camps In the state. Judge Carl
said that considerable progress was
being made in this campaign which
is to be continued for several months.
H. W. Lewis with headquarters at
Smithville has charge of the labor
campaign and he is mobilizing labor-
ers not only from Texas but from
all portions of the country. These
laborers are wanted specially for
ship building and farm work. In this
connection Judge Carl said that
many applications by persons desir-
ing work are being made to him.
while all such applications should
bo filled with Mr. Lewis at Smith-
ville.
B. F. Johnson of Wichita Falls is
directing the campaign for increas-
ed food and feed production witn
headquarters at Austin. He has a
large force here disseminating data
urging greater production. This
campaign which is to Last through
the planting season. Judge Carl
said will cost $7500 Frank Kell of
Wichita Falls is chairman of the
committee from the cduncil back of
this work.
The publicity campaign for whi- n
the council appropriated $lOOO. is
under the direction of Joe Hirsch a
banker of Corpus Christi. The wo r t
is being carried on through the
moving pictures and “four-minute”
men who explain the work of con-
servation and the practice nf econ-
omy throughout the war period.
LOWER TEMPERATURE
AND POSSIBLY RAIN
IS WEATHER FORECAST
Change Is Expected to Be
Felt Tuesday night or
Wednesday.
A drop in temperature is expected
in San Antonio Tuesday night or
Wednesday and the chances are
pronounced favorable for rain to ac-
company the change according to
the forecast issued from the local
weather bureau. There is. however
declared to be an obstacle to the
fulfillment of the rain feature of
this forecast in the existence of a
high pressure area over the south-
west but it is believed this "high’s”
influence will give way before the
wider and more general develop-
ments of the coming twenty-four
hours.
These developments are to spring
out of the following conditions. A
high pressure area lav over the east-
ern portion of the country and a
storm area or trough of depression
stretched crescent-like from the
Lake Region south to Texas and
Nev Mexico and then northwest to
Washington and Oregon. A high
pressure area of cold air had devel-
oped between th© horns of the ere-
cent and was centered over Alberta.
The results of this distribution of
air pressure showed Tuesday morn-
ing in reports of unsettled weather
and rain in the Mississippi and Mis-
souri Valleys and snow in Minnes-
ota Nebraska. South Dakota Wyom-
ing. Utah and Colorado. The storm
area had produced a rise in tempera-
ture in the central portion of the
state and the area of high barome-
ter had brought greatly lowered
temperatures to Alberta and the ad-
jacent country. At Wlnnepeg the
temperature was 28 degrees below
zero. Th© zero line extended south
to Nebraska and the freezing line to
i he Texas Panhandh
Cloudy unsettled rainy weather
with lowered temperatures is ex-
pected in this sec-ion of the state
Tuesday night nr Wednesday as the
result of the continued movement
and development of this atmospheric
combination.

MANY TRACHOMA CASES
Disease Prevalent Among Children in
Bell County.
AUSTIN. Tex. Feb. 19.—The re-
port made by Dr. John McMullen of
the public health service to Dr. W.
B. Collins state health officer of
the prevalence of trachoma among
the children of Bell county was rath-
er startling to the Texas official. The
survey made by Dr. McMullen dis-
closed that 15 per cent of the school
children in the country schools and
over seven per cent in the city
schools of Bell county were affected
with this disease.
In Bell county. Dr. McMullen ex-
amined 2000 school children and a
clinic was held in the Belton Sani-
tarium. where 6 4 children under 20
years of age w ere operated upon. The
average school child can be cured
in one operation from which recov-
ery should be made in one or two
weeks. Chronic cases require two
to eight weeks and several opera-
tions.
In this investigation Dr. McMul-
len had the full co-operation of Dr.
A. B. Crain county and city health
officer; L. H. Hubbard superintend-
ent of (ity schools; P. L. Stone
county superintendent: the physi-
cians of the city and the Red Cross
