The eight hour law applies to laborers and mechanics, raising project costs per Chief Engineer Wallace. The 13th amendment is applicable, demanding careful scrutiny of contracts to avoid involuntary servitude. Panama railroad and steamship workers, though government property, may not be covered by the eight hour law since employed by the corporation.
