the government ii king considered
hy the liniiuitution.
Tht thousand of tlcrM, mnoj
t4hcri and oilier minor employes in
tle various deparimemi in Washing-
tun almost without eception work
seven hours a day. lite considera
tion being, given to lengthening of

that it would enhance economy and
elttcirncy,
Studies made by expert! at the
request of government official are
laid to ihow that clerical workeri
who by the way, furm by far the
irtatrt proportion of those who
would be affected by a change can
work throughout an eight-hour day
'with topmost efficiency and without
latigue, although x hours made up
the greatest period of working ct
ticiency for skilled workeri in tuch
tasks as require great muscular ac
ttvity.
Remodel Hiitorie Building.
" The old red building at First and
A street, northwest, facing the cau
ttol, in which congress mice met and
in which .'resident Monroe wai
elected, will be dedicated tomorrow
by tnembcri of the national wom
an'i home and as the "seat of pow
er of the women of the nation."
The building, which also is his
toric through its ue as a military
prison in civil war days, will be re
modeled and the cornerstone will be
unveiled tomorrow. Among the arti
cles to be placed in the cornerstone
will be one of the banners carried
hy the suffrage pickets during the
campaign for an amendment to the
federal constitution giving the vote
to women.
j Cadets May Beat Congress.
Unless the 1923 naval appropria
tion bill is passed and signed by the
president, before June 2, commence
ment day at the naval academy, all
of the 541 members of the first
;lass if they so chose, will be com
missioned in the navy despite efforts
tn congress to cut down the number
&f those to be made officers.
' The naval appropriation bill which
a before the senate naval committee
provides that not more than 200
members of the first class shall be
commissioned. Members of the
ippropriation subcommission which
framed the bill for the house, how
ivcr, pointed out today that con
fess could not prevent the granting
sf commissions in the absence of
legislation, effective the day the tnid
ilupmen receive their diplomas.
As there is not much chance of the
bill's enactment within much less
than a month, house leaders said to
day that apparently the Navy de-.
jartment would win ' its fight to
commission the whole of this year's
class.
Postoffice to Have Doctors.
Postmaster General Work, who at
tine time was president of the Amer
ican Medical association, today dis
closed plans to establish a free medi
cal service for the thousands of the
nation's postal employes, r ,
Physicians designated by the Post
office department will be asked to
render such service or advice as is
needed but in no instance will they
be permitted to recommend any par
ticular doctor or institution to any
employe. Certain days of each month
will be set aside when employes '
wishing medical consultation will be
permitted to undergo examination
md if it is found that they are suf
fering from an ailment they will be
advised as to the treatment neces
sary, 'v.
The plans of the postmaster gen
eral follow along the same lines as
the system in effect in manv of the
country's large industries. '

cago were held under $500 bond each.
