Organized labor has won a victory
through the rendition of an opinion by

makes it an absolute condition that every

government vessel is building under the
provisions of the last naval appropria-
ton act authorizing the construction of
four submarine boats shall not work
longer than eight hours daily.
An opinion by the Attorney General last
year constituting a somewhat similar pro-
vision of former appropriation act. was
to the effect that the requirements of the
eight-hour law applied only to the work
being done upon the government vessel
at her situs, or the exact place where she
was under construction, and did not eX-
