Commander Lentre Expects WageBoard to Report by December
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
