Local Sunday Law
Urged to Restrict
Only willing Folks

A proposed Sunday observance
law for Washington which would
only apply 10 those residents of
the city who declared before a
notary public that they were
willing to be bound by IT was
suggested to the Senate District
committee yesterday in a letter
from Chicago. Ill.
The letter was signed by Nj. I.
Heath.
The writer expressed the opinion
that this would be the proper
way to bring about Sunday legis-
lation. because it would then ap-
ply only to those who want IT,
Under the draft which he submit
ted an individual desiring to fol-
low the law of avoiding unneces-
sary labor on Sunday would so
declare before a notary pubic,
which declaration would be bind
ing for two years.
The draft carried two penalty
clauses enforceable in the Pollce
Court, one for violating this vol
untary pledge of support for the
law and the other making 1t
felony to cause the name OF any
person to be placed on the list or
observers of the law without his
consent.

ed Il slight decline in the number OF
jobs available for both skilled and un-
skilled workers, the Labor Department
declared today.
January saw a small seasonal sur
plus Of skilled workers, particularly
carpenters and painters. while further
reductions in Government personnel
increased the surplus of clerical
workers already apparent.
Improved conditions in the near
future were seen in enlarged construc-
ton activities. Work has been started
on a S750,000 hotel annex, the depart
Iuent said, while raZing of buildings
preparatory to construction OF two
large Office buildings affords employ
ment to many unskilled men and a
small number of skilled men. Wealth,
er permitting, work will be started

piers and abutments for the Lincoln
Memorial Bridge.
Except for some seasonal decrease
in building activity during January.
major industries throughout Virginia
operated on fairly satisfactory sched-
ules, the employment director for that
State reported. There was some sur
plus labor apparent in the larger
cities, but skilled workers were well
employed.

generally TO be running on satisfac-
tory schedules, with a small surplus
OF common labor, clerical help and

problem OF preventing vehicles from
going over the side of the bridge and
work out some scheme that will pre-
clude these accidents.
The Board of Trade has been on
record for several years in advocating
a new Calvert Street Bridge This
structure. it was pointed out, was
condemned at one time as unsafe.
However, after certain improvements,
the Commissioners declared the bridge
safe, and the board let the matter
drop for a time. The recent accident
and other matters have led the com
mittee to believe that a survey should
be made. If the committee finds il
necessary they will recommend a new
bridge.
