ANK !Forced Weekly Holiday to l Prevent Discharge of Employes. Employes of the Washington navy vard will be given holidays every Sat- urday, beginning tomorrow, without pay. The Navy Department yesterday issued orders for the closing of all navy yards and shore stations on Saturdays. This step Is being taken in an effort to prevent the government from throw- ing Into the ranks of unemployed large numbers of mechancs, reckoned at 1,000 in the case of the local gun factory. In fact, officers at the local yard had been working on the Tist of those who must €0, and they were to be discharged day, in the event that the Navy Depa ment had not approved the ‘five-day- week plan. Some Discharged.’ However, 130 employes were discharg- ed from the local yard today. These dis- charges would have been necessary, it was pointed out, and are an addition to those which would have been made without the five-day plan. This particular discharge marks a step in putting the local gun factory on a basis of high efficiency. Owing to the cut in appropriations and the consequent necessity of cutting down the number of working days to five, it will be necessary that every em- ploye be regular in his work, and that he ‘maintain a high state of efficiency in order that the local gun factory may turn out the maximum of work to meet the demands of the big ships for guns and other equipment. Saturday has been selected as the enforced holiday, though some protest had been voiced on the ground that during the summer most stations were permitted to give half of Satur- day as a holiday, under normal con- ditions, without deduction of pa. “The department hopes this order will be accepted i it is promulga Assistant Secre- tary of the Navy Roosevelt said, in a letter explaining the purpose of the action.

Each hour the day grows hotter, men lose their pep and vim, and weave around and totter—and where is Sunny Tim? Where is the dippy duffer who bids us sing and smile when he beholds us suffer in every modern style? 1 see him in the winter when blasts are raging loud; a glad and merry sprinter he chases through the crowd; he bids me can my sor- row, and cries,” “So help me, Pete, the sun will shine temor- 1ow, and melt the snow and sleet.” I see him in the spring- time, I see him in the fall; he says it’s dance-and-singtime, and beams upon us all. But now that I am melting, and life seems stark and grim, and solar rays are pelting, oh, where is Sunny Jim? No gent with precepts priestly comes up to cheer my heart, but men in lan- guage beastly their sentiments impart. They say, “Dodgast the climate, it seems to have no sense ; why don’t you roast and thyme it, and hang it on the fence? Why don’t you flay the weather in one great soaring bymn?” They talk like this to- gether—and where is Sunny Jim? In winter he’s-a hummer, in autumn he is fine, but in the sizzling summer he taketh in his sign.
