Citizens Association Hits Borland
Plan for Added Hour-Pension
Campaign Is Endorsed.

The Lincoln Park Citizens Association
has gone on record against the
Borland amendment to make all govern
ment employees In the District work eight
hours a day. The motion was offered
by b. L. Northcutt and adopted unan-
imously without discussion. The resoIu-
ton read:
Resolved by the Lincoln Park Citizens
Association that we are opposed to the
attempt being made in Congress to ex-
tend the working day one hour for gov
eminent clerks. When the health and
energy OF the clerks are considered we
believe that more and better work can
be done during the present working day
than there would be lengthening it one
or more hours"

to Hopkinsville did it as a last
resort in an effort to have the

that on the night before the three

ted by the house and senate in

of the democratic members sought
to have the opponents and re-
publicans to elect one democrat to

INV opponent in a vain effort

congressional district against his

resurrect that condition that made
possible the election Of a republic

to me, as a senator from an ad-

it, and, despite the charge that |
