Dor It has taken action in another way
upon the subject A circular letter has
been addressed to the v-age-earners Of
America by the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor, the full
text Of which is as follows:
The constant struggle in which the

they daily endure, renders it essential
that they organize, unite, and fedeTate

Of liberty in our republican institutions,

The administration Of Mr. Long as head
CT the United States Navy was marked by
several notable and radical improvements
both in the personnel and the floating
strength Of the navy During his regime
the navy continued its remarkable growth
begun during the administration Of secre-
tary William E Chandler. The policy
Of the outgoing Secretary has always been
strongly in favor OF large and efficient
navy and personnel commensurate with
the demands of the service. Although Mr.
Long many times earnestly recommended

stoned officers in each grade be increased
with authorization for additional vessels,
he leaves the Cabinet without action

Probably the most notable legislation
enacted during Mr. Longs administration
was the so-caHed navy pers mel act
passed by Congress in March, 1899 For
many years prior TO the passage of that
act the navy made strenuous endeavors
TO have Congress place its commissioned
officers On the same footing as regards
rank and pay as that enjoyed by officers
OF the army. l. was not until Mr.. Long
had been Secretary Of the Navy for some
time, however, that favorable action vas
finally obtained, mainly through his eI-
forts. The personnel act did more for
the commissioned officers than any other
