The government of ficials, he continued, "have been who'll ly unresponsive and in many instanc- es poi1tedly antagonistic."
 AS another preliminary to the an- nual convention of the American Fed eI'ation of Labor. which begins next Monday, the building trades depart ment opened it's annual meeting, but had only a perfunctory session, at which John H. Donlin, department president announced that he expected a settlement of the dispute that led to the carpenters union withdrawing from the department.

He urged that govern ment mechanical departments, which he said had closed on account of sus- pension of naval preparation. should be placed at work manufacturing vari- ous articles needed by the govern ment Such a plan, he asserted, would reduce to the minimum the possibility of peace-time prOflteoring on the part of government cOntrac- tOr.g %
