as capitalists exaggerated their de-
mands knowing that ultimately these
demands would be pruned by arbitra-
ton boards.

CLERKS MAY ORGANIZE
Union Proposed to Represent Them In
QGnliu.. Alith -


Dealing with Government.
Washington, December l7.-Em-
plyoes of the Treasury Department are
seriously considering the organization
of union which will represent them
in dealing with the government so far
as hours, wages and working condi
tions are concerned. The American
Federation of Labor stands ready to
aid the government clerks to perfect
such an organization, according to
Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of. Labor.
The proposition to increase the
working hours of the clerks By an
extra half hour every day has brought
the movement for organization among
the employees of the Treasury to a
head. The employees feel, 1t is said.
that their working hours are being
gradually increased, while their pay
envelopes contain no more money for
the longer hours demanded of them.
Also, they point out, the cost of living
continues to increase.
Already the employees of the Fed
eraI government in the Bureau OF
Engraving and Printing. which is a
branch of the Treasury Department,
are organized. The employees at the
navy yard in Washington are or
ganized, and most OF the employees at
