NOT TO TAKE JOBS
OF MARRIED WOMEN
Cleveland Board Merely
Classifying Expenditures,
Says White House.

There Is no immediate prospect OF an
upheaval in the governmental depart
ments that may deprive married
women OF their positions, under the
plan whic-. is now being worked out
by the Presidents economy and eff
cheney board.
This board. commonly known as the
Cleveland board, is not engaged in an
investigation OF the personnel Of the
Government roll of employees. The
board, instead, Is condning its Iabors TO
a classification OF expenditures. depart
mental budgets and an analysis of the
work being performed by the various
bureaus
The board is making on effort at this
time to ascertain whether an enplOye
IS married, or whether the employe, If a
woman, has a husband. These matters.
II was said at the White House today,

valuable suggestions relating to the
economy program are being received
from persons in the Government employ
in all sections of the country. The clerks
as well as the heads OF bureaus. are
making suggestions. and these are oeiug
carefully noted atJhe White House, and
by the economy board. Of which Fred
