HALF HOLIDAYS
At AN END

This was rather a doleful day
for thousands Of Government
employees in Washington who are
enjoying their last Saturday half
holiday until next summer.
Several bills granting Saturday
half-holidays the year round are
pending in Congress, but so far
they have not reached the point
of passage. Consequently, only
an executive order issued from
the White House extending the
holiday period could give the
Government clerks an extension
of Saturday afternoons off, and
clerks today appeared to have
little hope that such an order
would be forthcoming.
In view of the situation Uncle
