concerning tho work being done on the cross-walks
This committee, Mr.. O'Bren said yesterday, had ex-
amined the cross-walks after careful study Of the
specifications. 1t was found that the work in many
places had not been done according to specifications.
When the committee had finished its work, Mr.
O'Bren had ypewrtten statement prepared. in which
he set forth Of the specifications In relation to
dressing and laying the stones of the crosswalks The
statement then gave several instances of the faulty
work. This statement was mailed to Thomas F. Gilroy.

O'Brien said yesterday that the statement had been
completely ignored by Mr.. Giroy, although he had re-
quested him to give the Granite Cutters National Union
