She also gave her photograph

REPORT OF COMMISSION
READY EARLY IN JANUARY
Request, Indorsed by President, Is
Made With View of Avoiding
/ Conflict in Recommendations.

Secretary Glass of the Treasury has
requested all department heads not to
include recommendations for salary
increases for any federal employees in
the District in their annual estimates
for the fiscal year 1921.
1t was indicated today that the ce-
partment officials will abide by the
recommendation and refrain from
asking for salary increases for en-
pIoyes, despite the great desire on
the part of cabinet members to seek
such Increases for many subordfnates.
Department chiefs were asked to
await the recommendations OF the
joint congressional commission on re-
classification Of salaries. which is ex-
pected to make its report and recon-
mendations concerning salaries of
100000 federal employees here by the
second Monday In January.
Sanctioned by President.
Secretary Glass request was made
following cabinet meeting, and has
the sanction of the President, it is
understood. It is generally felt that

SAYS MEX|COPA|D
ONLY HIS EXPENSES
Dr.. Tupper Tells Senators He
Received No Pay for
-
Peace Work.

DR.. Henry Allen Tupper. pastor of
the First Baptist Church. this city,
testified today to the Senate subcom-
mittee investigating the Mexican
situation that he had received from
President Carranza of Mexico ap-
proximately $s.4oo. But he explained
that 1t was solely in settlement of
the expenses he had incurred. Docu-
mentary evidence had been submitted
to the committee indicating DR.. Tup-
per had been on the Carranza pay
roll presumably for his work for
peace under the supervision Of the
international Peace Forum.
DR.. Tupper said he had repeatedly
refused remuneration for his services,
but that when Charles A. Douglas, then
attorney for the Carranza government,
suggested he accept the payment Of his
actual expenses, and when CaNanza
also insisted on such reimbursement
he agreed and accepted the draft which
was made a part of the committees
record last week.
