BRUCE STATEMENT
DENIED BY BARROW
Lawyer Lays Charge Against
Hoover to Remark Made
Before World War.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, September 25.-Clarence
barrow, Chicago criminal lawyer, today
reiterated denials that he had ever
told any one that he had had "nu-
merous drinks with Herbert Hoover"
but said he had said something to
a supporter of Mr.. Hoover before the
war that might lead to an inference
that had had drink with him."
Mr.. Darrow's comment was in reply
to a statement by Senator William
Bruce, Democrat, of Maryland, who said
he would accept Mr.. Darrow's "un-
equivocal denial" that he had taken
drinks with the Republican nominee
after Mr.. Darrow had denied q state
ment by Senator Bruce that the Chi
cage lawyer had said he had several
drinks" with Mr.. Hoover.
Holds Statement Incorrect.
Mr.. barrow said the report Of Sena-
tor Cruces speech to the effect that
he had said he had had several drinks
with Mr.. Hoover was incorrect. But
added that 81 did say something in
q conversation which I supposed was
not for publication to a supporter Of
Mr.. HooVer's before the war"
From this statement, he said, an In
ference might be drawn that he had
had drink with Mr.. Hoover. Then
he added:
Whether I said that or not shall
not now state. I thought then and
think now that statement made was
correct. Still. there is possibility of
a mistake referred to time during
the war in London before Mr.. Hoover
was constitutional officer of the
United States"

COOLIDGE DELAYS
ON HOLIDAY PLEA
Request of u. S. Workers for
Saturday Half Day Called
Matter for Congress.

President Coolidge holds the question
of granting Saturday half holidays TO
Government employees other than dur
ing the Summer is a matter for Con-
gress to determine and not the Execu-
tive.
This viewpoint was made known to-
day following requests by employe or
CARNATIONS that he issue an order ex-
tending the half holidays, which end
Saturday. to the time when Congress
will dispose of the question.
The President was represented. how
ever, as having reached no decision, al
though he gave the impression that lie
is inclined to disapprove the extension.
He intends to give the matter further
thought before Saturday.
Generously Treated.
The President thinks Federal en-
ployes are generously treated in holi-
days. He recalled that, besides Sum-
mer half holidays, employees are given
80 days annual leave and 80 days
sick leave In addition to legal holidays
The President evidently has given
thought to the economic question in
volved. inasmuch as he has figured that
If the half holidays were carried out
through the year the labor cost of the
Government would be increased IL per
cent.
The President also recalled that he
has been asked to grant additional holi-
days during the year. and that pres
sure has always been brought to bear,
particularly at Christmas and New
Year, for additional holidays for en-
ployes. ...---
The first formal request made to the
President for the extension came re-
Gently from the Federation of Federal
Employees. In the request it was
pointed out that Congress at the next
session is likely to enact legislation
nent through the year. 1t was sug-
geSted to the President that his extern
sion order would merely carry on the
holidays from Saturday to some time
next Winter.
Committee Calls.
A committee representing the League
of American Civil Service, headed by
Mrs. Margaret Hopkins Worrell. called
at the White House today and left a
petition urging the extension. 1t was
set forth that the Code for the District
establishes Saturday afternoon as q
holiday. and reminded the President
that he would be following the inten-
ton of that part Of the Code If he
granted an extension.
Mrs. Worrell was accompanied by
John H. Pellen. Thomas M. Boyle. Miss
Gilbert A. Cone. Miss Emma Arnall
and Charles M. Galloway.
