George A. Parks from W. K. Burlew, adminis- Wilbur of the Interior Department. Apparently some firms holding Government contracts have taken advantage of widespread unemploy- ment to reduce their wage scales, and this action has aroused the ire of the President. In advising the Governor of the administration’s objections to re- ductions, Mr. Burlew telegraphed as follows: “The President directs that im- mediate steps be taken to check tractors to take advantage of the present employment conditions and reduce wages, his policy being to all contracts on the basis of prevailing wages, contracts to con- tain covenants to that effect.
