one feature that has caused better feeling and
greater Willingness TO work is afforded by
the fact that the time Of all the Iaborers en-

have been assured Of compensation for their
labor. and naturally. they now 60 about their

Then, too, there ara not so many irritating
little conflicts OF authority as there have been
in the past, when the progress Of the work
was in some cases materially hindered by petty
demonstrations Of personal feeling. Investiga-
