Previous Proposals.
The only previous occasion when the
employees union declared itself on the
Saturday half holiday was during
President Wilson's administration,
when the proposal was taken up per-
sonally by Mr.. Wilson himself. and
presented to- his cabinet. A delega-
ton from the union had visited the
President, in favor of a Saturday half
holiday plan. and 1t was said today
Mr.. Wilson had favored its adoption,
of working conditions in the govern
ment departments in the District.
Upon objection Of one member of
the cabinet, however, the plan failed
of adoption.
Under the proposal before President
Wilson and his cabinet however.
there had been no plan for adding
half an hour to the-other five days of
the week. from Monday to Friday.
This feature, 1t was believed today
by those in favor of the new plan,
would eliminate objection from those
who objected to a shortening of the
working hours and curtailing of work
thereby Under the new proposal, the
establishments in the District of CO.

mated that "others' would be i'm
plicated." He claims that 1t was $50, 900
that he paid Canister and Mann, and
not $25, 900.

Germany, before the war, raised S5
