as under its provisions the Civil Serv-

to keep up to date the data contained

May Re Delayed Until Fall.
1t is unlikely that the committees
on appropriations will tackle the job
of reclassifyiug the government en-
ployes until next fall or next winter.
it was said today Congress has ex-
tended a $3.50 bonus to cover the sala-
ries of employees for the next fiscal
year. and probably will let it go at
that. However, after the campaign
and the present rush of business, it is
believed. the committees intrusted
with this matter will undertake the
rec!a sification of the employees.
This situation makes it imperative
to have the reciassification records
kept up to date.

Government employees today ex-
pressed the opinion that while the

One of the first posts of the Ameri-
can Legion TO take part in the funeral
of a comrade whose body was brought
from overseas was Roy w. Kelly post
of Ashland, Wis The body of Pvt
William b. Boyle arrived ut Ashland
recently with Private Ford of the
Twenty-second infantry as escort. A
committee Of Roy W. Kelly post es-
corted the coffin from the train to a
chapel where legionaires stood guard
until the services on the following
day. The members of the post attend
ed the funeral In civilian clothes. with
the exception Of the pail bearers and
the firing squad, who were in full
uniform. The body was escorted from
the chapel to the church. where legion
members were seated i'm group. At
ter the services the post formed ranks
In front of the hearSe and marched
To the city limits Here the ranks
were opened and the men uncovered
while the hearse passed through. The
pail bearers and the firing squad fol
lowed the cOrtege 10 the cemetery for

Of more IA an GOur day. Membership
figures have not yet been compiled but
when it is realized that at least ten
women are necessary requisite for
the formation of any one auxiliary
unit of any American Legion post it Is
seen that probably 10000 or $4,000
women were thus indirectly associated
with the legion through its auxiliary
units before the end of last month To
what proportions his total will have
grown in another six months is for eX-
perts to say, but an estimate of 1000
units with total membership of more
than 10000 is not considered eXtrava-
CANT.
Minnesota, with an aggregate of rs
such units completely organized, has
substantial lead over all other states
in the Union in the matter of arousing
its women relatives of former fighters
to a realization of their privileges and
opportunities for constructive social
and economic service through direct
liaison with the legion in it's avowed

REAL ESTATE
BANK LOANS ESSENTIAL
TO BUILDING OPERATIONS
Gov. Harding Says Federal Reserve
Board Has Put No Ban Upon
Such Transactions.

Bank loans for building operations
are essential" and no restrictions are
put on them under the credit policy
OF the Federal Reserve Board, cover
nor Harding said, In an opinion madc
public recently. Governor hArdinKs
opinion, an answer to the lumber IN
terssts. said the board Is not respon-
ible for any restrictions OF credit 10
the building industry. but considers
structural projects as u Fundamental
necessity" along with other basic
necessities.
while the Federal Reserve Board
has pointed out the necessity Tor the
exercise OF more discriminating )uds-
ment by banks generally In granting
accommodation, IL has repeatedly
stated that care should be taken TO
do nothing to interfere with essentlai
production" Governor Harding said.
There can be no question that me
production and distribution or the
basic necessities OF life. such as FOOD.
fuel, and clothing. are essential anu
IL Is obvious that shelter also Is
fundamental necessity.
"The Federal Reserve Board does
not feel that II can be Justly charged
with responsibility for any restric-
tions of credit to the building indus
try"
Builders should now have no dif-
ficulty in securing necessary snort
time loans at their banks to finance
operations. the governor said. He-
ferring to the rigid provisions OF the
Federal reserve act. limiting the re-
discount transactions of the reserve
banks, Governor Harding stressed the
point that reserve banks are not al
lowed by law to make direct loans
to borrowers.
Governor Harding said he and MS
associates on the board recognize
that various fatcors have served to
slow up building activity. such as
poor transportation facilities and
high cost of materials.

URGES HIGHER RATE
FOR POSTAL BANKS
Kahn Says Interest of Two Per
Cent Not Enough to Stimu-
late Thrift.

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The present
postal savings system tends to i'm
press potential and actual depos-
itors" with unfairness, Otto Kahn
declared before the Senate Commit
tee on Housing and Reconstruction
here yesterday. He advocated extern
Sion and expansion of the system
along lines recently urged by Eugene
Meyer, jr., to provide for greater thrift
OF the people and faffer return on
their money invested in Governmental
postal banks.
"The present system is unnecessar-
lily harsh and thoughtless, and the
rate of interest now paid depositors is
Inadequate" Mr.. Kahn said.
This thought is inevitable when
upon investigation of the Government
agencies of savings accounts-the
postal savings system-it is learned
that interest at the rate of only per
cent is paid, as contrasted to and
AZ per cent paid by mutual savings
institutions.
ION the one hand people are
preached to with regard to the need
Of saving. On the other hand, they
learn that il they do practice saving
by depositing in the postal savings
banks, they are taken care of.
II am convinced that private saw
ings banks would suffer as a result OF
extension of the postal savings sys-
tenn.
with regard to the protecting OF
citizens of small savings from reck-
less and dishonest promoters, the ed
ucation propaganda under the juris'
diction Of the Government, including
thrift and offering concrete opportu'
mites for fair return on savings
would be of great benefit"
