afternoon that we intend to lay off onehalf of our force here be- tween now and the end of the year It is a mistake It I have been so quoted What I did say was that we are likely to lay off a thousand men within the next three mouths but as we employ about 40M at the navy yard that can hardly be construed as onehalf their number Asked as to recommendations the wage board may make in regard to the increase of pay asked by the machinists Capt Leutxe said that he could not predict the action of the board the three members of which he added are meeting every- day now and will probably complete their labors in this regard about December 15 The commandant declined to state the personnel of the board which is composed of officers appointed himself t shot in back and his father remained Special

ia not true said Capt E H CLeuUe commandant t the navy yardyesterday afternoon that we intend tolay off onehalf of our force here be-tween now and the end of the year Itis a mistake It I have been so quoted
What I did say was that we are likelyto lay off a thousand men within the nextthree mouths but as we employ about40M at the navy yard that can hardlybe construed as onehalf their number
Asked as to recommendations the wageboard may make in regard to the increaseof pay asked by the machinists CaptLeutxe said that he could not predict theaction of the board the three membersof which he added are meeting every-day now and will probably complete theirlabors in this regard about December 15The commandant declined to state thepersonnel of the board which is composedof officers appointed himself
