ToLose Their Jobs
AS Bureau Heads
Their Offices Abolished by
the Board of Estimate;
Whalen's Salary Cut

The Board of Estimate yesterday
abolished the bureaus Of personal SER
vice and contract supervision, as such.
and placed the work of these two bu-
ceaus under the supervision of Joseph
Haag, secretary Of the board. Mayor
Hylan had wanted to retain these bu-
reaus and the appointments under
them. He had nothing to say when the
resolution was adopted yesterday.
Secretary Haag was instructed to tell
the Board of Estimate how many of
the present employees of the bureaus
could be conveniently dropped. This is
taken to mean that former Alderman
Francis ?. Bent, whom the Mayor ap-
pointed as director of the Bureau Of
Contract Supervision, and George L.
Ilrrell. director Of the Bureau of Per-
sonal service, soon will find themselves
without jobs. Mr. Bent's salary was
fixed at $4,000 and Mr.. Tirrell received
$500, the salary fixed by the Mitchell
administration for qthc heads Of both
bureaus
The Committee on City Plan, Of the
Board of Estimate, and its staG were

ceiving a salary of $4,000 was dis
missed, as well as seven subordinatcs.
he aggregate salaries of the staff
amounted to $21 AGO. This committee
was created under the Mitchell admin
istration and did great deal o. work
rolative to the new coming and dis
trictng Of the city.
President Smith, of the Board Of
Aldermtn, also chairm@n of the Com
rlittee on Salaries and Grades. intro
duced resolution recommending that
an vacancies in the city departments,
either through war service or other
reasons, be temporarily filled BY the
I transfer Of employees from departments
where their services We're not needed.
Mr.. Smith said his resolution was to
ask the department. heads and COUNTY
officers to refrain, as much as possible,
from appointing any more persons on
the city payroll unless absolutely nee
ossary. On the request of Borough
President Connolly of Queens the reso-
luton went over for Il week.
The board passed the resolution from
the Committee on Salaries and Grades

May Give War Work
To Non-Essentials
Public Service Reserve Suggests
Plan to Avoid Labor
Confusion

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Conversion
of so-called non-cssential industries to
war work, rather than the establish
ment Of new factories, was indorsed
to-day by a conference Of state di-
rectors of the Public Service Reserve,
which is recruiting voluntary workers
for industrial war service. BY the use
OF existing plants, they said, distribu-
tion of labor would be facilitated and
confusion lessened.
The directors also emphasized the
necessity Of assuring adequate housing
if workers are asked to 60 to industrial
centres where their labor Is needed.
In connection with the conference,
Secretary Wilson issued a statement
tonight urging large registration of
workers for shipyards, but warning
them not to leave their present en-
ployment until called to fill place
waiting for them
Secretary Wilson, Crawford Vaughn,
former Premier of South Australia.
and members Of the Labor Advisory
Council addressed the state directors
at dinner tonight.

Will Establish Confidence
in Securities Now Discrim-
mated Against, Says
McAdoo
ComparedtoD DraftLaw
Use of Capital in Unnecessary
Expenditures During War
To Be Prevented

WASHINGTON, Feb. /. - Secretasy
McAdoo expressed belief, in state
ment issued tonight, that. if Congress
should pass his proposed bill creating
a half billion dollar government cor
poraton to finance private enterprises
during the war the existence Of the
agency itself would go far toward cs-
tablishing confidence in securities OF
industries essential to the war, against
which banks now discriminate in favor
of commercial paper.
ut is confidently believed that the
mere existence of the machinery which
this act would establish" said Mr.. Nc
Adoo, "would Of itself maintain con-
fidence to such an extent that the aid
OF the corporation would only in rcla-
lively few cases be called for. and that
the banks would be able to take care
Of the requirements Of this class Of
borrowers and be ready to do it know
ing that In case Of need foans of this
character would be available for rcdis-
count.
Caused Discrimination
THE provisions of the Federal Re
serve law, which permit member banks
to rediscount and purchase paper ST..
cured by the governments obligations
effect of driving the banks to discrim-
mate against loans of ineligible paper
even where such loans were vtally nee
essary tor war purposes, and in favor
o. commercial paper. even though OF
companies whose activities were nos
related to the war and which might
we'll be curtailed during tie period oe
the war. 1t is believed that the pro-
posed bill has been wisely and con-
servatlvely conceived as a war measure
to give relief from this condition dur
ing the period Of the war.
GAS a corollary to the provision for
the extension of credits, the bill pro-
vides for approval by the corporation,
through system of licenses, of issues
OF securities with view to preventing
the use of capital in unnecessary ex-
penditures during the period of the
war. This is of great Importance to
the country in order to conserve the
supply Of new capital and make it
available for government loans and es-
sentlal war purposes.
Like the Draft Law
"The proposed license system is in
line with the act which established the
selective draft in lieu of voluntary
system of creating an army to win the
war. The sacrifices which must be
made if the war is to be won should be
made by all alike, and not merely by
those whose patriotism impels them to
volunteer, and who would have to carry
the entire burden unless the slackcrs
are compelled to do their part"

Dutch Ships To Be
Used by America for
Only One Round Trip
[Staf Correspondencel

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1.-The pre-
liminary agreement between the Dutch
and American governments respecting
the use by the United States Of Hol-
lands merchantmen in American waters
provides only for ono round trip of
these ships, it was learned to-day.
The difficulty that has prevented
negotiation of permanent arrange
ment to cover the period Of the war
concerns the amount of feed and food
stuffs The Netherlands shall be per
mitted to import from the United
States. The negotiations are still in
progress i'll London, but pending set
tlement and to prevent the available
tonnage from remaining idle while tho
points at issue are being discussed
tentative agreement was reached
Under it Holland will use two of the
vessels to transport commodities to
Rotterdam, some will be provided for
Belgian relief and some assigned to
transport provisions for Switzerland to
the Swiss open FORT of Cctte, France.
The remainder Of Dutch vessels in
American waters may be used at the
pleasure of the American authorities
for one round trip to any destination
except such as would carry the ships
through the submarine zone.
time limit of ninety days for the
round trip from the date of the signing
of the agreement was written into the
contracts, which released the vessels
direct from the owners who granted
the charters to the United States War
Trade Board.
Holland, it was learned. will not as
sent TO any permanent arrangement
giving the use of the Dutch vessels to
the United States to enter the war zone
definite assurances respecting the
amount of commodities she will be
permitted to export from America. If
at the end of ninety days the ncgotia-
tors at London shall not have reported
an agreement another temporary ar
rangement governing the use Of the
vessels for like period Of ninety days
will be made.
The refusal of the Dutch government
to permit Dutch vessels chartered to
the United States in the absence Of
I, Is understood to have been based upon
the contention that such use granted
would constitute an unncutral act on
he part of The Netherlands. and make
/ the Dutch ships liable under German
naval regulations to attack by sub
marines. 1t is believed the ships will
be used in the Pacific and South Anneri
