cipal Court this morning the husband

nan in it by trying to prevent the con-
summation of the agreement Of the Union
and the Regular Committees. let Nun

be restrained. and that quickly
Following this pronounced sentiment for
harmony the meeting endorsed the har-
mony convention of September and

EIGHT-HOUR Law
DOESN'T APPLY
Firms Building Govern
ment Boats Needn't OBJ
serve 1t

The Attorney-General Of the United
States, in an opinion addressed to the
Secretary Of the Navy holds that the
so-called eight-hour law does not apply
TO vessels under construction for the
navy by contract with builders at pri-
vate establishments.
The Attorney-General calls attention
TO the case of Clarkson VS.. Stevens &c
u. S, 5O5), wherein the Supreme Court
held that the title of a naval vessel
under construction does not vest in the
government until all the conditions
and covenants Of the contractor have
been fulfilled.
The opinion was prepared and signed
by Solicitor General Hoyt and was ap-
proved by Attorney-G General Moody. A
similar opinion has been given the
Secretary of War to the effect that
the eight-hour law does not apply to
contractors furnishing the quarter
masters department with supplies.
The officials of the Harlan and Hol-
lingsworth Corporation expressed
pleasure when they heard of the opin-
ion Of the Attorney General They
said the opinion was conhrmatory Of
the stand they had taken regarding
the application OF the eight-hour law
to government work in their yards.

tagious disease? DO you think it is
just? Is this what has been accom-
plished by civilization. when a human
being is goaded into the naked mount
aims to sleep in the grass ike "a toad?

also. What about the mountain
