KOREANS SCEPTICAL OF JAPAN'S REFORMS By Associated Press) i WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. Japan's !tromise of early reform In the Korean gOTernment as made in the imperial rescript recently Issued at Toklo, Is "insincere" and means "nothing to Korea." Dr. Syngman Rhee, president of the provisional government so declared in a statement issued here. "Reforms for Korea." Dr. Rhee added, "cannot grow out of Japanese control of Korea in any manner or form. Koreans will not be satisfied with anything less than complete independence.

They do not want to be the instrument and tool of some other nation to further its ambition and desire for world power."

Actors Benefit Given Setback by Managers (By Associated Press) CHICAGO. Aug. 22. The proposal of a benefit for striking actors met with a setback through threats today, of some of the managers to enjoin any of the stars from appearing in such a show. It was pointed out by some of the leaders that a benefit performance without headliners would be unlikely to attract patrons and the matter was left in abeyance for the present. The striking actors have advertised a mass meeting for tonight with a view to presenting their side of the controversy with the producing managers association to the public. In addition to the stage hands and musicians, who walked out Thursday in sympathy with the actors association, the bill posters union members and the theatrical baggage and scenery transfer men quit work today. Only one theatre the Olympic where FIske O'Hara is playing in "Down Limerick Way," remained open today.

Bailey Favors Basic Rate For Telephones A basic rate which shall be charged by all telephone companies in the state of Indiana is the task that will be taken up and determined by the publl service commission, as a result of the action in congress in returning the wires to their owners. W. M. Bailey, manager of the Richmond Home Telephone company, believes that a basic rate should be fixed, but not a rate that will apply to each independent company. His reason for this is, that in some parts of the state, the cost of maintenance of a company might be very much less than in another part of the state. One company might be in the sleet belt. In other places it might be much more difficult to run wires. : ,,r.,i.

Clerks Who Do Duty Deserve Wage Increase, Says Postmaster Beck "We feel that postal clerks who are doing their duties deserve a substantian increase over the wages they are now receiving," said Postmaster C. B. Beck, speaking of the bill now before congress, that would, if made a law give all postal employees a 35 percent, increase in wages. The wages of postal employees now range from $1,000 a year to $1,800, for assistant postmasters and superintendent of mails. Clerks wages run accordingly from the first grade, which is $1,000 per annum, to the sixth grade, $1,500. Special grades, above the sixth, which are for suervisory officials, run from $L500 to $1,800. Mail carriers receive from $1,000 to $1,500. "However," concluded Beck, "we

have in our postal system, as In com

mon with all other organizations, men who do not do their duty as clerks, and who will also be benefited by the wage increase."
