TO BACK
MILLER.
Unless Pressure From Organized
Labor Is Ex9rtod no Changa
Will Be Made.

Washington, Aug lit has been vir-
tually decided by the administration TO
do nothing further In the case OF w. A.
Miller. the assistant foreman Of binding
in the government printing office. The
only thing likely TO cause a change OF
mind is pressure from organized labor
throughout the United States. That is
not likely to be exerted. for the reason
that the leaders are not in sympathy with
the effort of the binders to call a stint
OF work less than half of what is done
by union binders elsewhere a days work.
The administration has made inquiries,
and finds that as a rule, the leaders of
organized labor believe the government
is entitled to receive as much product for
days pay as private employer.
Figures have been made by representa-
tives Of Miller, presumably from material
furnished by him. showing that IL the
binders who are objecting TO the amount
OF work he asked them to do were en-
ployed at the highest rates of wages
given by private employers they would
earn only $l.55 a day instead OF the ~
they are now earning. The binders have
claimed that they were doing as much
work as is done for private employers,
The binders. in their charges against
Miller, preferred before the arbitration
committee. declared that IL was viola
ton OF the oath Miller took when he be-
came a member OF the union for him TO
seek 10 reduce the amount OF work to be
done on each book They call that cheap
ening the job" But members OF the ar
bitration committee asserted that the
work. instead of being made cheaper. was
really made more expensive They un-
dertook to prove this by saying that while
the books were bound with leather SCRAPS
OF sheepshn were used. When Miller
cheapened the work, they asserted. by
using paper for the backs the scraps or
sheepskin were permitted to go to waste.
Millers friends assert that IL the mat
ter is pressed he will show that the union
blocked a change proposed by him which
would have saved the war department
alone more than 10000. They are not
yet ready 10 give out the facts with re-
gard 10 that case.
Up TO this time Miller has had all the
victories. He achieved another by hav-
ing the members Of the arbitration com
mittee return TO work yesterday.

orders. Barrett was one Of the first 10
announce that a union man could not

tiOnal organizations" Prolonged ap-
plause greeted the presentation Of
