Congress to Keep Hands
Of of Hazing Affair

The House Committee on Naval Az
fairs is at present inclined 10 keep its
hands of the hazing situation at An
napOlis, and the indications are strong
that il viii do nothing except, per
haps. pass the measure giving the
Seer Tatary OF the Navy authority 10
summarily dismiss midshipmen for
haZing.
Chairman Foss. of the Naval At
fairs Committee, said today the COM
mittee will meet next week to extend
TO Secretary Bonaparte the privilege
OF addressing the committee on the at
present rather complicated state OF af-
fairs al the Naval Academy.
1t is known, however, that there - Il
we'll defined sentiment in the commit
tee that the Navy Department should
be allowed to cope with the whole mat
ter, and IL is feared that any inter
ference by civilians might only add 90
the difficulties Of the situation. There
Is, of course, the bare possibility that
the popular clamor for CongreesiOnal
action concerning the Academy may
cause some action by the committee
but this q not expected.

Answer of the Union
To Typothetae Protest

Referring TO the contention made by
the Typothetae that Columbia Typo
graphical Union has violated an ex-
listing contract in ordering a strike
at the present time, the view of the
union is expressed as follows:
The contract was entered into be-
tween the two organizations on Jan
uary ?. 1904. and became effective on
and after January OF the same year.
This contract provided that thirty
days notice shouio be given prior 10
January ! of any year by either party
10 ct a change in the agreement.
This notice was given, and involved
the ight-hour rule and the recogni-
tion OF the CLOSED" shop.
This proposition being rejected bv
the Typothetae, all contracts between
the two organizations We're at an end.
and nothing existed preventing the or
dering of the strike. But it is further
insisted that ny the terms of the con-
tract recently ended. all differences be
tween the parties which could not he
amicably settled by a Joint committee
should be referred 10 an arbitration.
and therefore. THAI the union should
accept such arbitration as 10 the prop
ositiOns now in dispute.
1t is felt by the union that the prop
OSitiOnS are of SuCG nature that aTbi-
tratiOn does not have relation to them.
but, Furthermore, he union believes
that any arbitration which might be
had, We're such q thing feasible would

out any reference to the expired con-
tract the provision for arbitration in
such contract having relation merely
