Lodge DiScIaimS
Urging StiLLingS
Upon President

Speaking in behalf OF himself and
Senator Crane, in disclaiming any re-
-sDonsibility for the selection OF Public
Printer Stlnings, Senator Lodge, of
Massachusetts made the following state
nlent today after an interview with the
President:
7 saw in the dispatches this morning
that II was stated that Senator Crane
had recommended the appointment OF
Mr.. StIIngs. This is a mistake. had
strongly recommended to the President
the appointment of Mr.. Ricketts,, and
Senator Crane had also recommended
him. Then Mr.. Suntngs and his friends
came to US in Boston and asked for
our Endorsement We told MI. Sullings
that we had recommended Mr.. Ricketts,,
but that 4 the President selected him
(Stllings), We should gladly concur in
the Presidents selection and assent 20
it in the Senate. But neither Of US had
ever heard Of Mr.. SHlIings before he
came to us for our Endorsement, and
We neither suggested nor urged his ap-
polntment to the President"
The removal OF MI SulIings was the
chief topic Of gossip about the White
House and Government departments to-
day. Nearly every man that expressed
himself predicted that Mr.. Sulllngs
would never return TO the Printing OF
fee.
Senator Cullom. after a call at the
White House, said he was very sorry
fer Sciuiugs. because ne was a con-
scientious fellow. and worked mighty
hard at the job.
-BUt," continued Senator CullUm, 4
guess he was not exactly the right
man for the place. He was not a good
manager Of men. and was zoo anxious
10 turn things upside down. The result
was that he had the whole Office stirred
up all the time. I stuck by Stillings
as long as ] could"

NAVY HACHINISTS
DESIRE TO SHARE
BURDEN EQUALLY

Told by a committee representing the
machinIsts at the Navy YARD that the
men as a whole would prefer being fur
loughed at intervals. in order to avoid
further wholesale dIsmissals at the yard,
and TO secure the reinstatement Of some
of The 400 already dismissed, Secretary
Metcalf this afternoon said such plan
seemed admirable, and might be fol-
lowed.
Secretary MetcaI, was iE conference
this morning with James O'Connel,
president of the International Associa-
ton Of Machiuists, and Emmett L.
Adams, president of Federal Lodge Of
Machinists. an Organization Of the men
in the Government employ. These men
told the Secretary that in order to cur
tell any further d smissaIs Of the men
at the Navy Yard for lack Of funds"
and. If possible, to secure the reiustate-
ment Of those formerly discharged, the
majority Of the employees at the yard
would prefer the furlough plan.
Resolutions on Dismissals.
They presented the resolution adopted
at Columbia Lodge, No. ia last night,
which is as follows
Whereas q large number OF machln-
lists have recently been discharged at
the navy yard for lack of funds and
whereas this lodge. representing such
mdchinists, believing that much distress
VIII be OCcasiOued by the dismissal Of
Il csc employees with an hours notice,
especially during the present industrial
depression when no one knows in what
direction to turn for work. and. where
as we are willing 10 assume a share
or our tellOW-emplOyes burdens.
Therefore, be u resolved, That this
lodge, representing 1000 OF the maChin-
lists does petition the Secretary OF the
Navy 10 relnstate the employees recently
discharged, and to effect such retrench-
ment as may b. necessary by some
other method. even 10 the extent or
periodical burroughs OF the entire force.
Outlook Very Hopeful.
The Secretary expressed his gratidca-
ton at the spirit Of cooperation ex-
mbited By the men as a whole, and said
rhat the 3lln seemed a good one. He is
said 10 have minated that IL might be
followed ard the committee OF two rep

Secretary. NetcaIf has promised 10

Following his conference with the
labor men. the Secretary consulted AS
sistant Secretary NewberTy, an author
lty on conditions at the Washington
Navy Yarl. and afterward was I'm con-
ference with the President, IL is believed
on the same matter.
The willingness Of the Secretary to
take the plan under consideration. and
his statement that e. might be adopted
IN order 10 clear up the situation at
the navy yard IS taken as an iudiCa-
ton that al least a portion Of the men
may be rciustaJed.
Il was said az the navy yard this
morning that while no further dismiss

plated, owing 20 the Intervention. IL is

be that shooting will lie done from
scratch, and not from the 16-yard line

two years.
