Carrying out the wishes of Samuel
Gompers. president of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor. the Central Labor
Union last night indorsed Harry Chant,
president of Local 3ss. for the Maryland
legislature, for which he is a candidate.
The legislative committee Of the Or
ganization has prepared a bill which will
be introduced in Congress prohibiting
employees of public service corporations
from working long hours. without extra
pay. The committee claims that rail-
roads and taxicab companies work their
men sometimes as much as twenty hours

the Central Labor Union.
They insist on a standard time Of not
more than twelve working hours for all
employees. The resolutions were drawn
up by Emmet Adams and John B. Col
