The persistent request of the Department of Labor and its bureau heads for money necessary to bring up its arrearges and provide for the additional work made necessary by the increased number of immigrants. abnormal conditions in Mexico. and other emergencies has been completely ignored by the Committee on Appropriations. aind all this is covered up by an item giving $230.000 to a building contract for Ellis Island. N. Y. Thus. while the department seems to be getting much it gets little or nothinga bare $5.000 as a department. and the Bureau of Labor Statistics gets nothing. The Bureau of Labor Statistics under the present administration has inherited a trail of arrearages. not only in its work but in its funds to print the reports as prepared.
