CHICAGO WOMAN ARGUES IN
CAPITAL FOR POSTAL WAGE ACT
Chicago, Feb. 20.-In support of the
the reclassification bill proposed by
Congressman Martin Madden of Chi-
cago, providing for minimum salaries
of $1,000 a year for postal employees
as against $800 at present, Mrs. Frank
R. Halas of Chicago, president of the
woman's auxiliary of the postoffice
clerks' union, spoke before'the house
committee in Washington yesterday.
"With the tremendous advance in
the prices of necessities it is becoming
impossible for us to live on our in-
comes," she said.
Mrs. Halas also described the evils
of night work and the nervous strain
of those at home alone throughout the
night without the protection of the
men employed by night. She said
many children scarcely ever see their
fathers Who work at night.
HANG OUT THE FLAG TOMORROW
AND DO HONOR TO WASHINGTON
Hang out the flag tomorrow! By
so doing you will do double honor to
the memory of Washington, for ac-
cording to recent research, it has been
ascertained that the great patriot's
coat-of-arms, consisting of three stars
and three stripes furnished the motif
for the national banner, despite tfie
popular belief that Betsy Ross created
the design after her own fancy.
In 1776 the flag that flew above the
old Massachusetts state house had its
circle of 13 stars together with the
combined crosses of St. Andrew and
St. George. The flag, as modified a
year later by congress, was first raised
above Fort Stanwix, N. Y., while the
intrepid John Paul Jones first carried
it into; foreign waters.

the public alike failed to recognize her
wonderful talent. She was engaged
for two guest performances by the
Chicago Opera company and made a
sensation the like of which has not
occurred since the days of the re-
nowned Patti. Since that time her
reputation has been rapidly establish-
ed until she now ranks as one of the
foremost pianists in the world.
Saturday Afternoon, ,lMay
Saturday afternoon an organ recit-
al will be given by Richard Keys Biggs
of New York City. Mr. Biggs will be
remembered as prominent in musical
circles of And Arbor about a decade
ago, being a graduate of the University
School of Muic. Since that time he
has filled some of the leading church
positions in Brooklyn and New Yorl.
City. le filled important engagements
at the San Francisco and San Diego
expositions last year and attracted
the favorable commendation of music
critics. Those of his Ann Arbor friends
who remember himl will be delighted
to hear him, while others will be in-
sured a rare treat.
Saturday Evening, May
The climax of the Festival will take
place Saturday evening when Verdi's
"Aida" will be given by a cast in-
comparable, including Maude Fay, aii
American soprano, whose career at
Munich was such as to startle opera-
goers there. Since joining the .Metro-'
politan she has been equally success-
ful. Madame Matzenauer, always an
acceptable artist, will appear in her
favorite role of Amneris. Martinelli,
who made so favorable an impression
in Ann Arbor two years ago, will sing
the part of Rhadames, a role which
is usually allotted to him at the Met-
ropolitan. The role of Amanasro will
be taken by Giuseppe De Luca, whose
coming is just announced, while Wm.
Wade Hinshaw, formerly of the Met-
ropolitan and a bass of distinction,
will be heard as Ramphis. Gustof
Holmquist, who will be heard in the
"Gerontious" will also take the part of
the king on this occasion.

("ERTAN IMPERIAL BANK ASKS
WOMEN TO DISPOSE OF JEWELS
Amsterdam, via London, Feb. 20.-
The Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung
of Berlin prints prominently an appeal
by the president of the German im-
perial bank for all German men and
women to sell their gold valuables to
the imperial bank and dispose of all
jewels held by them in neutral coun-
tries through a diamond agency.
The appeal says the sacrifice of gold
and jewels which the bank demands
forms a part of the necessary supply
work, but that all classes do not yet
fully recognize the necessity of this
further sacrifice.
The president in his appeal adds
that he does not yet need to demand
the sacrifice of gold ornaments of espe-
cial historical, artistic, or ethical in-
terest, but he does require all gold
ornaments outside this category.

New York, Feb. 20.-The contro-
versy between the Bethlehem Steel
company and the British government
over a Russian ammunition contract
has been settled, Charles M. Schwab,
head of the steel company, announced
tonight. The contract, it is said, cov-
ered 5,000,000 shells, costing $70,000,-
000.
One-third of the shells had been
made, it is understood, when Great
Britain, which was to pay for them,
refused payment of a $10,000,000 draft.
Mr. Schwab, announcing the settle-
ment tonight, said:
"It disposes of the only matter in
connection with the business of Beth-
lehem steel which has, given me any
serious concern. Now the Russian gov-
ernment can count on receiving its
shells regularly, while the Bethlehem
Steel company will be protected as to
its profit and its large investment in
the contract by a satisfactory settle-
ment of the specifications and a new
schedule of deliveries and payments."

igan Daily.
