1t is stated on authority that there Is no
Printer Palmer will suspend the 81 per day
scale for printers and bookbinders in the
Government Printing Office at the close
of the present quarter because Congress
failed to make the necessary appropria-
tion to pay the increased wages.
There will be deficiency when Congress
meets in December. but this will be provid-
ed for in the Emergency Appropriation bill.
and there will be no delay in the work OF
the office, as there will be sufficient force
employed to meet the demands for Govern
ment printing. Public Printer Palmer has
a record for keeping the work up to date,
and his friends say he will not fail in this
instance because Congress neglected last
March to make the increased appropria-
ton necessary to pay the $4 per day au-
thorized. 80.
When asked this morning IL 1t were true
that the printers and bookbinders contrib
uted $25 each to pay committee to secure
the legislation authorizing the increased
salary, e. c. Jones, President of the local
men did, however, he said, employ counsel
to give them advice, and for which advice
the counsel received legitimate fee. Mr.
Jones said it was evident that someone was
endeavoring to make trouble, but that the
effort would not succeed. The bill asking
for an increase of pay for the printers and
bookbinders employed in the Government
Printing Office. he said, had received the
endorsement of the labor organizations of
the country, and it was really a labor
measure This was the first time Mr..
Jones said, the measure had ever been en-
dorsed by the Federation of Labor. On a
number of occasions, he added, a bill Civ
ing 81 per day to the printers and book
binders employed in the Government Print
ing Office had passed the House and Sem
ate, but not in the same Congress.
Mr.. Jones said that he knew Of no print
er or bookbinder who had criticised the
action of the committee in this matter.
1t is not denied that the printers and
bookbinders agreed to pay $25 each cut of
the first months increase of salary, but
they were given sixty days in which to
make the payment, and furthermore it
was purely voluntary on their part.
The printers and bookbinders take no
stock in the story that there will be Con-
gressional investigation to ascertain the
means employed to secure the increased
wage, which had the endorsement of the
Joint Committee on Printing OF the House
and Senate.
