ment Treaty.

Washington, Feb. iJ,-Dlsehafge
without warning OF thousands OF
navy yard workers whose services
were no longer required because OF
the armament limitation agreement,
was characterized yesterday as "es.
tremeIy ineonsidefate, heartless and
inhumane." and an act OF broken
faith" IN a letter sen, by William
II. Johnston. president OF the Inter
national Association OF Maehinisis
to President Harding.
The administration was asked 10
provide work Tor the men by taking
All forms OF armament manufacture
out OF the hands OF private aconirae-
tors and plants, by speeding up plans
ior the construction OF naval auSil-
larry craft allowed under the disarm-
ament treaty. and by arranging for
the manufacture OF supplies for the
civil government in the navy yard
plants.
'We maintain that proper concern
by the government for It's employs
would have anticipated the likelihood
OF this emergency arising" the let
ter said. "lnstead. il has been sin.
gularly lax and apathetic. Indeed it
has the very arrogance to throw men
long in its employee, out OF service
on barely an hours notice. All that
We have been able TO note is a cal
lous lack OF interest in and indii-
ference to the problem so serious TO
all workers"
An agency should be at once es-
tablished in the navy department,
the letter said, to seek and secure
work from all other departments and
bureaus for the yards.

Cattle Feeding Scarce

were less cattle on feed around Grand
Island than there had been for sew
eral years.
There is big acreage of winter
wheat under cultivation in my sec
tion," said Mr.. Aye, but the crop
outlook is uncertain as the stand
does not look the best. A big hard
ship has been worked upon the farm
ers by low grain prices and the low
price of cattle last season caused
many farmers to fail to put any cat
tie in the feed lots, consequently cat
tie are scarce now.
