STRIKE IMPENDING ON
PORTLAND WATERFRONT

Portland, Or, Sept. 22.-Unless the
Grain Exporters Association, compris.
ing the five largest grain exporting
houses in Portland, shipping the bulk
of the grain exported from the Pacific
coast, increases the wages of mem bers
of Grain Handlers Union No. 1868
from IS cents to 40 cents an hour by Z
o'clock Monday morning, the Portland
waterfront will be involved in strike
affecting between 1000 and 1900
men.
This is the ultimatum which Oscar
Melby, representing the grainhand
lers, and Andrew Madsen, represent
ing the longshoremen, gave the eX-
porters this afternoon.
Individual exporters declare the
raise will not be granted and say they
are ready to meet the threatened
strike.
The ultimatum of the grainhandlers
was in answer to another from the ex-
porters themselves, demanding dec
laration from the grainhandlers of
their position on the wage question,
by noon Saturday. The response of
the union was immediate and from the
shoulder.
If the strike is called, not only the
grainhandlers will walk out, but the
members of Lingshoremen's Unions
264 and 265 have pledged themselves
to strike also in sympathy, according
to the grainhandlers. The grainhand-
lers handle the grain on the docks,
passing it to the longshoremen, who
load the ships.
The employers assert that if the
grainhandlers walk out men from Pu-
get sound will be imported to take
their places.
On Puget sound, it is said, grain
handlers are paid 80 cents an hour,
but the local workers say that the work
here is vastly different from that per-
formed on Puget sound, where the
tiers seldom exceed eight, while here
from twelve to fifteen tiers have to be

EIGHT. Law IS
EXTENDED BY PRESIDENT

Oyster Bay, Sept. 24.-President
Roosevelt has extended the eight hour
law to apply to all public work under
the supervision of any department of
the government. The order affects
particularly work on river and harbor
improvements.
Charles P. Neill, commissioner of
labor, who at the direction of the pres
ident has had charge since last winter
of the enforcement of the eight-hour
law, has sent to the president report
of which the following is the conclud-
ing paragraph:
81 might add here that found that
one very noticeable effect has already
been produced in this matter of eight
hour law. Contractors fully realize
now that the law is going to be en-
forced with earnestness and they no
longer dismiss it as a matter of no
consequence. They probably like the
law less than ever, but their attitude
none the less is rapidly changing into
one of Becoming respect for the stat.
ute.
The Presidents Order
To carry out Commissioner Neill 8
recommendations, the president has
signed the following executive order:
81. All departments of the govern.
ment under the supervision Of which
public works are being constructed
are hereby directed to notify the rep
resentatives stationed at such public
works to report at once to their re-
spective departments all cases in which
contractors or subcontractors on works
now under construction have required
or permitted laborers or mechanics in
their employ to work over eight hours
in any one calendar day.
"2. All government representatives
in charge of construction of public
works are further directed that it is
part of their duty to report to their
respective departments each and every
case in which laborers or mechanics
are required to or permitted to work
over eight hours day on such works
under supervision of such government
representatives. Wherever reports
showing in excess of eight hours day
are received by any department they
are to be referred to the department
of Justice for appropriate action.
"3. All departments of government
under the supervision of which public
works are being constructed by con-
tract are further instructed to have
their legal officers prepare and for
ward to the president list of such
statutes and executive orders as have
direct bearing on contracts for the
construction of public works, and with
which bidders on such works should
be made acquainted.
