Mr. Darrow today by the Federal Em Em
peoyes' Union of Philadelphia. Secre

ter. He wns accompanied by C. H
Spear, of Washington, for the Rational
Federation of Federal Empleyes.
Mr. O'Uellly wrote Mr. Darrow Jan
uary 13 Btatlng the reason for short time
working conilltiena waa a decreasing
demand for coin from the mints.
Mr. Darrow was Informed by em em
peoyes today that in every case where
inquiry was made It was learned tha'
hanks applying for subsidiary coin had
issued ttf them coins from the old stecka
taken ever from the sub-treasury, ami
that many such coins arc "under cur
rent." The first furlough order issued te
the superintendent of thc mint Decem
ber 2 stated that It was "en account of
the condition of the wages appropria
tion." The empleyes have discovered that thc
Denver and San Francisce mint de net
have thc wime working conditions as
Phi ndclphlu.
Darrow Sees Discrimination
"In view of the information received
from the ether two mints," Mr. Darrow
I was told by the empleyes, "It would ap
' pear that the Philadelphia mint em em
peoyes nre being discriminated ngalnst
for some reason that we are net in a
, position te determine."
It is said, tee, that n geed deal of
I money of the Phi ndelphia mint wage
fund is tied up in work performed for
ether mints nnd ether departments.
Here is n Mimmary of statements
I given te Mr. Darrew:
i 1 The reasons assigned by the net
lug director of tlie mint for the existing
furloughs de net agree with the reasons
for Mich furloughs stated bj the local
I buperintendent.
, 2 The telegraphic Information from
Denver nnd San Francisce indicate .
clearly that no such furloughs have I
been effected by thc ether two mints. '
