HARDING HOPEFUL
FOR ABOLITION OF
TWELVE HOUR DAY
COmpers, Not So Optimistic,
Characterizes Meeting
as Bunk"

WASHINGTON. May 10. - Conf
dence is held by Pres't Harding. il
was declared Friday by an admins
trative spokesman, that the confer
ence Thursday with steel manufac-
turers had started a movement which
would result in abolition OF the Il
hour day.
The same view was not held in
certain labor circles. however. Sam
uel Gompers. president of the Amer
lean Federation OF Labor, issued a
statement declaring the meeting was
typical of present day effrontery OF
big business. that il should use the
White House as a rOstrum from
which to give the country Z.
what the American people are accus-
toned to call bunk.
Mr. Gary in his statement of what
was accomplished. Mr.. Gompers con-
cluded meant that the steel indus
try intends 20 abolish the inhuman
II hour work day when it gets ready
and not before"
The White House vifw, however,
was that there was almost unan-
imous sentiment among the steel
men for a continuation Of the three
shift. eiEht-hour day which was put
into force in some parts Of the in
dustIy during the slack labor period.
" hich gave more men employment.
The steel representatives il was said
agreed with the president in prin-
ciple. that II was a good idea now TO
abolish the 12-hour work day but
that the greatest obstacle was TO get
the consent Of the workers. The ex-
PLANTATION was made that when the
tide Of business was running high
the workers showed a tendency 20
take on the 12-hour shift and there

First Day of Spring.

Tuesday Of this week was the frst
day of spring-according to the alma
nae. AS matter Of fact, however,
the weather was anything but spring
like. A cold wind from the northwest
with forbidding clouds and occasional
snow squalls made the day blustery
and unpleasant-a typical March day.
Still, spring is coming along, for the
reign Of the grounding is over, the
sun is getting power, spring flowers
are peeping up, the robins and blue
birds are here, buds are swelling,
small boys are playing marbles, folks
are raking trash from the gardens,
baseball bats may be seen, girls are out
in pretty new hats, people are moving
into their new homes, milk is getting
a better color, early fishermen are dip
ping for suckers, grass is getting green,
the little Flickingers are going bare
footed, fresh fish are on the market,
the song sparrow is singing-oh, a
thousand signs tell us that spring will
soon be here. really and truly.
