ENGRAVING BUREAU
PROBE REQUESTED
Luther C. Steward Charges
Workers Are Being Driven
Under Nervous Strain.

Charging that workers at the Bu.
reau OF Engraving and Printing are
being driven under conditions in
volving nervous strain almost beyond
endurance, Luther G. Steward. presf-
dent of the National Federation of
Federal Employees, in a statement is
sued today announced the employees
at the big money manufacturing plant
would welcome an investigation" de-
claring there is general dissatisfaction
there.
1.-THE present working conditions in
the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing" reads the statement, ARE the
outgrowth of an attempt to apply
purely mechanical methods in the ad'
ministration of personnel of nearly
5000 human beings. Pressure has
been exerted for some time past for
production possibly at the sacrifice not
alone of ordinary humane considera-
tion OF employees engaged in important
and laborious operations, but also in
the necessary safeguards that expert
ence has shown are imperatively nee
essary to protect the Government S
great money and securities plant. The
production of paper money and secur-
tiles of the United States must be sur
rounded by every safeguard. and this
is inseparabie from the ma = nance Of
thoroughly satisfactory s. orking con-
ditions
Director Alvin w Hall has been
represented as characterizing the ex-
preston Of dissatisfaction as limited
to a few agitators' and irascible old
women AS matter of fact, the dis
satisfaction is general and has been
brought formally to the attention of
the director by the organized repre-
sentatives Of the Women's Union of
the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing, which is affiliated to the National
Federation of Federal Employees.
There is no gainsaying the fact that
the employees are being driven under
conditions involving nervous strain
almost beyond endurance"

Tailor Pays Savings of $1,000 to Learn
That Glittering Discs Are Not Gold

At the price of his savings, $1,0S0,
which he eagerly paid for box Of
gold discs" Nathan Lewis. tailor at
SOC Eleventh street southeast, has
learned the sickening truth OF the
saving, "All that glitters is not gold. -
Lewis is sadder but a wiser man
today as the police failed to pick up
any definite traces Of the three con-
fidence men who yesterday glibly per-
suaded the unsuspecting tailor to
withdraw his entire savings account
in exchange for a handful of glitter
ing circlets. about the size of 5-cent
piece. similar to those used as inner
shoppers on ketchup and soft'drlnk
bottles
I'm sick" Lewis said, as he ex-
planned the transaction to Policeman
N. S. Hodkinson of the fifth precinct
a short while after. II had dream
last week and a feeling as If / should
go to Baltimore with that money and
put in it q bank with my brothers,
Accompanied by Detective Dick
Mansfield yesterday, Lewis went to
the Bowie races in the hope of run
ming across the three men, while
police in Baltimore endeavored to pick
up any possible trail of them.
Lewis explained that one of the
men who said he came from Balti-
more visited him Wednesday at his
shop and discussed with him the
feasibility of starting radio store.
He returned yesterday TO talk things
over when a second man entered and
inquired about a fictitious person in
the neighborhood. Disappointed at
not being able to find the man. the
confederate returned to Lewis shop
and the prospective radio merchant
elected the information that gold
deal" was involved.
Dreaming of profits, Lewis became
interested in the small box of gold
discs" the second man displayed and
readily agreed that chemist be
called in to submit the discs to test
