Express Faith in Director,

Complete confidence in and satisfaction
with the administration Of Joseph E.
Ralph as director of the bureau was
voiced. The discussion developed that the
employees are anxious to help the govern
rpent by working overtime. inasmuch as
II Is impossible to obtain sufficient skilled
help to meet the necessities of the present
wartime rush.
Tho contention was made that II the
hours Of labor arc limited at the present
time 1t will tend not only to disorganize
the force but that 1t will take some time
before working conditions can go along
as smoothly as they do now, regardless
of overtime.

outside interference with the working OF
the bureau. There was no gratitude ex-
pressed for the part taken by Miss jean
