The Ohio Senator, who is familiar
with the strenuous work Of building
up a newspaper, has retained his
working habits since coming to Wash
ington in 1918. When Congress is in
session his usual time for reaching
his office Is a few minutes after o
O'Clock, the few minutes being al
lowed in order to give his office force
the opportunity to arrive ahead or
him.
Habits gained in newspaper life are
in evidence while Harding carries on
his Senatorial duties. When he has
the time he writes editorials for his
newspaper. These he insists on writ
ing out in long hand. as he does his
speeches. He dictates his correspon-
dence, however. He meets people
easily, and receives hundreds Of calls

FIGHT
WAGEREV|S|ON.
Bureau Heads Opposition to
RecIassification Causes
Friction With Employees.

AntAg onism between bureau chiefs
and employees in various Government
departments has sprung up because
of the efforts OF organized employees
to spread rehabilitation propaganda.
II was charged today that certain
departmental heads. firmly seated In
their positions through years of per-
sonal control which has made their
power almost absolute, are ready to
night any attempt to inject new
ideas regarding personnel and once
management. such as reclassincation
aims at, and which would jeopardizs
their present supreme authority.
Such opposition nrst became appar-
ent during the investigation OF the
reclassincation commission. II was
evident then that there were a num-
Der of administrative officials who
realized that reclassifcation would
cut down their power and that they
resented any such attmpt.
STATEMENT ISSUED.
The Joint conference on reclassinca-
tion. recently organized to promote
interest In the principles of reciassi-
fcation. in a statement issued today,
declared:
1T has been suggested to the con-
ference that some administrative Of
ficials have expressed the view that
they can see no utility in the work
that the conference has undertaken.
This view is believed to be a mistaken
one. There is no one thing of so
much concern to the Government and
to the individual employe as this con-
templated recls ssification and re-
generation of the service, and, that
being so. 1t is manifest that there
is the greatest utility in any effort
to keep alive interest. both en- the
part of the employer and tn en-
ploye.
The further suggestion has oeen
made that the work is not nect ssary.
because administrative officers Il TIE
department are. already. very TAMIL
lar with the reclassincation. that
this is not precisely so might be
shown by what is probably a cis ssic
instance of Indifference to $. vital
matter, which is referred to here only,
and in all earnestness, as supporting
the utility OF the work of this csr-,
ference.
ONE INSTANCE CITED.
