be addressed To Willis L. Moore, chief
Of the weather bureau, for bis action
IN the case Of printer named Cooper

his strike assessments. Mfr. Moore. it
is alleged, urged Cooper on two occa-
sions TO pay his assessments and the
latter refused and be was expelled from
the union. Following this, Cooper was
transferred 70 New Orleans and he claim.
ed that this action on the part Of Mr.
Moore was intended as punishment for
him for not complying with the de-
mauds Of the typographical union
The matter was referred to the civil
service commission, which without re-
porting on the question OF whether on
not Cooper's transfer was intended az

action in urging the payment Of the
strike assessments was improper. I'M
der the circumstances, the commission
expressed the opinion that CoopeT's
transfer would not be for the good Of
the service al this would give the i'm.
preston that 1t was intended as pun
ishment.
