G0N|PERS
PRESENTS
NAVY PLAN
confers With DENLY on Pro-
gram to Alleviate Forced
IdIeness on Employees.

President Samuel Gompers,
head of the American Federation
of Labor, and representatives of
union organizations whose men
are affected by the Navy Yard
reduction program put into eff
feet last week, conferred with
Secretary of the Navy DENLY and
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt
this morning, presenting a plan
whereby Navy Yard work might
be re-arranged to provide work
for the more than 1000 forced
into unemployment by the order.
Hold Long Conference.
Secretary DENLY talked with Com
pers and his delegation for nearly
an hour. promising to give the de-
tailed proposal submitted immedi-
ate and careful attention.
The basis Of the proposal to retain
old time Navy Yard men at their
work Is to divert the money which
would have been applied to the
building Of capital ships to the aux
Hilary building program Of the Navy.
Inc men also seek 10 nave SCTdpplnS
Of ships done in the Navy Yards
rather than by private contract.
Sec More Reductions.
Captain Dayton, commandant OF
the Washington Navy Yard, has
indicated that there may be further
reductions at the yard within a few
weeks, this time in the office force
whose work has decreased with the
heavy reduction in the shops.
Rumor that craftsmen retained
were receiving increases while
other workers were being released
was found today to have originated
following isolated promotions which
had been recommended for six
months or more, and orders for
which had been delayed by the
Civil Service Commission.
The Merchants and Manufactur.
ers' Association last night appointed
q committee, composed of Philip
King, chairman; George s. DeNeale
and Sol Lansburgh, to work with
other organizations in the inter-
ests Of the "furloughed" employees.
