tried to force was not shared by the spec

ana began consideration of the Depart

RUE making it a continuing order until

IRE came entirely from the Democratic

that bureau to a'department which would

sument in support of the measure. IL hav-

Richardson Of Alabama opposed the hill
principally upon the ground that the in
terests and welfare of the laboring ella sses
would not be subserVed by the transfer
OF the bureau of labor to the new depart

against the transfer. The minor position
this bureau would occupy under the new
department, he said, would create suspi-
cion and everything indicated that the in
terest and care Of labor under the new de-
pdrtment would be subordinate TO the
great interests Of capital and commerce.
