The House Labor Committee Agrees on One
Providing a Penalty.
The House labor committee today agreed
upon bill relating to the Limitation Of the
hours of daily service Of laborers and me-
chsnics employed upon public works. 1t lim-
its and restricts to eight hours in any one cal
endar day the service and employment of all
laborers and mechanics employed by the
United States, by the District Of Columbia or
by any contractor or subcontractor upon
any public work of the United States or
the District of Columbia. 1t is made unlawful
for any officer Of the United States govern
ment or the District Of Columbia or any con-
tractor or subcontfactor whose duty it shall
be to employ, direct or control the services Of
such laborers or mechanics to require or per-
init them to work more than eight hours in
any calendar day, except in case of extraordi-
nary emergency. Any person who intention
ally violates any provision Of the act shall be
deemed guilty ofa misdemeanor and be pun
ished by fine and imprisonment, or both. The
provisions of the act are not to apply to or
affect contracts already entered into.
The vote on the bill was not unanimous sew
eral members dissenting. The existing eight
hour law 10 a mere naked declaration that eight
hours should constitute o days work, and con.
tanned no penalty provisions. Hence the law
became practically imperative. The penalty
provision in the bill agreedupon today will, the
committee believes, help to bring about the
results desired.

attention will be paid to Mr.. Young's appeal
for justice.
