WASHINGTON, Oct. president
Wilson indicated today that he did
not favor exempting from civil serv-
ice deputy collectors of internal reve-
nue. and deputy United States mar
shals provided in the urgent def
cheney bill as passed by the Senate
He told callers 1t was originally in

should be exempted, because of their
necessarily confidential relations with
collectors.
The civil service commissioners pro-

around and hurled himself upon the
quartet. He had been carrying an
open ,penknife in his hand In case of a
real hold-up and with it he slashed
Wfnteroll.
