APPLIES TO LABORERS
AND MECHANICS ONLY
Attorney General Moody Renders an
Opinion on Eieht-HOur Law
In Panama Zone.

Washington. June 9.-The opinion of
Attorney General Moody regarding the
application of the eight hour law on the
Isthmus of Panama was made public to-
day. He holds that the act of August
1872 which limits and restricts to eight
hours the daily service of laborers and
mechanics employed by the government
OF the United States or by any contractor
or sub-contractor upon the public works
oil the United States, applies to the en-
ployment of laborers and mechanics in the
construction of the Panama canal.
That act however. the Attorney General
holds' does not apply to the office force
OF the lsthmian Canal commission sta
uoned on the isthmus of Panama. or to
any of the employees of the government
who are not within the ordinary mean
ing of the words '1aborers and me-
chanics."
Also that the scope of the act is not
limited by the territorial jurisdiction of
| Congress, but is co-extensive with the
subject matter to which 1t was directed,
to-wit, the conduct of officers and agents
| of the United States in respect to the
hours of labor of mechanics and laborers
| upon all public works of the United
States Congress. he says, may fix the
hours of labor upon all the works of the
| United States, wherever conducted, and
make the law binding upon the officers of
the United States and through the agency
OF contracts upon all contracts with the
| United States.
| In answer the request from the Sec
rotary of War for opinion upon the
| additional question of whether the pro-
visions of the act mentioned apply to the
| hours of labor of mechanics and labo-
rers" employed in the construction. main
tenance and operation of the Panama
railroad and steamship line. the Attorney
General decides in the negative and says:
THE act of August |, 1892 prescribed
an eight-hour day for laborers and me-
chanics employed by the government of
| the United States. by the District of 20
| lumbia, or by any contractor or sub-con-
| tractor upon any of the public works of
| the United States or of the said District
| of Columbia Upon the facts stated by
| you, those who are in the service of the
! Panama railroad and steamship lines are
not employed by the United States they
| are employed by the corporation itself.
| Nor does the corporation appear to be a
| contractor upon any public works OF the
| United States l am, therefore, of the
! opinion that 1t does not apply to laborers
| or mechanics in the employ of the Pan
| anna railroad, and steamship line
