HOPES T0 REGULATE EMPLOYMENT AGENTS Confers With Gompers, ta, who is in Washington, is in confer- ence with President Gompers of the the passage of a law by congress pre- venting the employment agencies of the country from imposing on innocent workingmen. at the outset of the switchmen’s strike in the Northwest men were brought into that section on the promise of work, some of them obtaining employ- ment only to hold it for a short time, and the result was that many men were stranded, being left to shift for themselves, thereby putting the state authorities to great inconvenience and municipalities in some instances to expense. The state commissioner believes that under the interstate commerce clause of the commission it might be possible to pass a law regulating such matters. He thinks that employment agencies which send men from one section to another should be required to indemnify men so engaged, to as- sure them of transportation money to other fields in case it is found that they are not fitted for the employment for which they have been engaged.
