Unfair DISCRIMINATION Is Alleged.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Kindly allow me space in your valuable
paper to call attention to an injustice
which is being perpetrated in one of our
government departments. Last Wednesday
Goth instantly, the burial day of the late
Secretary Gresham, all the government de-
partments We're closed, with the exception
Of the navy yard. When Secretary Blaine
was buried il was the same thing, and such
it has been for number of years to my
knowledge, and I don't know how much
longer. While the employees of the other
departments have been enjoying their holi-
days, they of the navy yard have been
compelled to toll ON day after day, all the
year round. except for national holiday.
which may happen to come in once in a
while. We often hear the remark, 'All the
departments were closed on such and such
a day." No doubt the speaker thinks that
he or she is correct in their statement, but
unless it be of national holiday they are
speaking, what they say Is not so for the
navy yard employees are sure to be found
at their posts. Ii this was all it would not
be so hard to bear, but it is not. In all the
government departments with that same
navy yard exceptiom the employees have a
certain amount of annual leave, generally
thirty days, and the same for sickness.
The employees Of the navy yard have not
one day. Even if a man is injured in the
discharge of his work, and has to stay at
home, he is not paid for his lost time, and
II his injuries are serious, and he is away
a month or more, he is lucky to get back
at all. IT 1 am not mistaken, there is an
annual appropriation made to eupply ice,
towels and soap to the departments. The
navy yard receives none Of these, and why
such discrimination should be made is one
of the untold mysteries. Is 1t because they
are mechanics and not clerks that they are
denied these necessities? These are the
most prominent Of the injustices heaped
upon these men. When a man gives his
time to serving three or four years of ap-
premiership for comparatively no pay, and
in so doing has his hands soiled and is
compelled to put on a suit of overclothes,
is this any reason why he should be looked
down upon not on an equality with one
who works at a desk? In my opinion it is
not. On the contrary 1 think he deserves
credit. and should be given his just dues
at any rate. 1t has been acknowledged by
experts that the Washington navy yard
employees do finer and better work than
any like class of: workmen on the globe
and taken as a whole there will not be
found in mechanics better class socially
in six months travel. AN OBSERVER.
