Corporation Counsel Gives
Decision on Issue Raised by
Central Labor Union.

That in compelling the workhouse

hours a day the District is not violating
tho eight-hOur law. is the opinion of
Corporation Counsel Thomas
Recently the Central Labor Union
charged that the District code limiting
the hours Of laborers and mechanics
was being violated at the workhouse.
Mr.. Thomas holds that the guards can
not be classed as labOrers or mechanics.
"In the absence Of express statutory
requirements that such officials shall
not be employed for more than a limited
time per day" says Mr. Thomas, lit
would seem that public policy necessi-
Jates a construction which wcuId allow
an unlimited time.
THE hours Of such employment may
in some instances extend beyond a pc
Rod Of eight hours, and the rules re-
garding the control OF prisoners must
also require the attendance Of watch
men throughout the day and night. The
length Of service must necessarily de-
pend upon the needs Of the prison and

to be composed of Senator Smoot.
chairman; Clark of Wyoming; Dixon,
Chamberlain and Hughes. Hearings
will be given
A hearing today was given by the
full committee on public lands to for
mer Secretary of the Interior James
r. Garfield. He discussed chiefly the
bill relating to the development of wa
ter power through the leasing of the
public land adjacent to the water. AS
"a general principle he approved the
proposition of Secretary Ballinger but
suggested a number of changes which
convinced the committee that consid-
cradle attention must be given to the
questions involved.
Mr.. Garfield is of the opinion that
the water power should be developed
by cooperation Of the federal and
state governments. He endorsed the
suggestion of leasing the public lands
adjacent to water sites to concerns
which will undertake to develop power
under conditions that will prevent
monopoly. He suggested that a large
percentage of the proceeds from rentals
should be paid by the national govern
ment to the states in which the power
