PROTEST AGAINST THE
EMPLOYMENT OF JAPS
Secretary of War Garrison With
out Authority to Act in
Labor Matter.

Washington, Jan. 14.-Secretary
Garrison, it was announced today
has declined to interfere with the en-
ployment of Japanese labor on con
tract work for the war department
at Schofield barracks, Hawaii, on the
ground that he is without authority
to do so in the absence of law on the
subject.
The secretary's decision was in re.
sponse to a request from the San
Francico Labor Council that citizen
labor be given preference on con-
tracts made BY the war department
the complaint being based on the en-
ployment of Japanese labor by sub
contractor in the laying of ditch at
the barracks.
The contract contains no restriction
against the employment of alien la
borers, and there is no law requiring
or permitting such provision to be in
serted in contracts of this character.

Colonel Chandler brought in on his
