James Mcnamara. the attorney

the court will construe the law SO
that in the future wage disputes be-

will be unnecessary.
AT present there is no immediate

not inclined 10 continue workin I;
under present conditions unless they
get from the city what the law. to-
their minds, SAYS they are clearly

believe they have been deprived OF
their rights in many instances and
so they engaged Mr. Mcnamara 20
find out just what their rights under
the law are.
The law declares that the men
may not be forced 10 work more
than six consecutive days and that
the six days constituting a week :
work must be served consecutively.
The law also provides that men
working on Sundays and holidays
will be allowed double pay.
II not infrequently happens that
man is put 10 work on Tuesday. so
that Sunday would be his sixth con
secutive day AS. under the law.
Sunday counts double. that would

opinion OF the water board em.

have held that in such an instance
Sunday would count simply as one
Of the six days
The men insist that they either
get two days pay for the Sunday
or that II be made TO count double.
20 that four week days and one Sun
day would complete the week OF six
consecutive days.
