Precedents Specific Points
at Issue.

Launched by a request from Repre-
sentative Virginia Jenckes Of Indiana
for full information" on the contro-
versy, the Department OF Labor's hear
ing on the dispute between union
painters and the procurement division
of the Treasury Department was be-
gun today.
Witnesses told Referee Carl Sched-
ler the principal points at issue are: {:
l. Whether laborers on painting Jobs
should be permitted to do such work
as moving scaf1olding. cleaning paint
spots and placing protecting cloths on
furniture at rate OF pay less than
the scale for painters,
q Whether painters are entitled TO
double pay for any work done in ex-
cess OF seven hours day for flve
days week.
Declaring she Is vitality interested
In the causes underlying the recent
city-wide strike OF union painters
working on Government buildings,
Mrs. Jenckes asked Schedler to have
tAhS iStoi VI VIC AiVnll ~ lhOSo lOi
the information OF members Of Con-
gress interested in preserving indus
trial peace in the District Specifically,
she requested answers to the follow
ing questions:
Was Local No 1868 OF the Broth
erhood OF. Painters actually picketing
the Government OF the United States
or the contractors working on Govern
ment buildings? This was answered
by Bryce P. Holcombe, business agent
for the painters, who said the strike
was against the contractors.
Are the members of Local 1863 itin-
Grant painters or permanent residents
Of the District?
Have the contractors affected by the
strike ever refused TO sign contracts
with organized labor?
Are the contractors citizens and tax
payers Of the District?
Schedler assured her the desired
information would be supplied
The controversy concerning the
alleged use Of laborers to do painting
work arose out OF contracts for
painting the City Post ONCE Albert
w. Loneacre, Procurement Division
inspector on that job said % painters
| and 7 laborers were employed there
He said the laborers were not per-
| mltted to do any painting but did
assist in covering furniture, moving
scaf1olds and cleaning floors.
He said some laborers had been en-
ployed for these duties on virtually
every job he had been connected with.
This was denied by Holcombe, who
contended work Of that nature was
part Of painters duty and had al
ways been so treated in the District
Several other witnesses were called
to corroborate Holcombe's testimony.
w. E. Reynolds assistant director of
procurement. said the sole interest OF
the Procurement Division was to Sc
cure from the Labor Department a
ruling defining the duties OF painters
| and whether they should be paid dou-
Bile time for the extra hour If they
worked eight instead OF seven hours
a day
Holcombe said he thought the Pro-
curement Division was prejudiced
against local painters and that the
painters strike would have been avert
ed if procurement ofIicials had been
willing to shut down the job and In
