of all furs. The sea otter was former

PLAN TO SPEED Up
RECONSTRUCTION
Federal Employees Head and
Chairman LehIbach to Con-
fer on New Bill.

President Luther Steward of the
National Federation of Federal En-
ployes will confer within the next
few days with Chairman Lehlbach
or the House committee on civil serv-
Ice and retrenchment in order to
speed up" action on a reclassifica-
ton bin at the coming short session
of Congress.
Speed is believed to be the main
hope of those pushing Redistribution.
dent Steward will journey Saturday TO
Mr.. Lehlbach's home in New Jersey to
discuss the proposition with the leader.
II there is anybody that can
carry Redistribution through at the
coming session more than speed. it
is believed to be Mr.. LehIbach. Gov
eminent Employees are pinning their
faith to the man who piloted the civil
service retirement bill through Con-
gresS.
Expect Lehlbach Here Soon.
Mr.. Lehlbach is expected to come
back to Washington shortly loaded
for bear in respect to Redistribution.
and already to call hearings. If neces-
Sary, and spring a brand-new reclaSsi-
fication bill. which is expected to be
much more concise and businesslike
than the great report and bill Of the
Redistribution commission.
Since all bills on Redistribution
must go to his committee, Mr.. Lehl-
bach is expected to have full control
of the matter. and. no matter how many
bills on the subject may be introduced.
the one that will be reported out will
be the one he favors. it is declared.
Such favoring. however, will come
about only as the result of the most
mature study on the part Of the chair
man of the House civil service com
mittee. Nobody can stampede him, il
is said, into favoring one bill or an
other.
to many conflicting bills on feclassi
fication are not being given serious
consideration by those interested in
the matter. What more vitality in
terests government workers is the
plan for hearings before the COM
mittee.
May Shorten Hearings.
In the interests of speed. it is whis-
pered. 1t may be necessary to cut the
hearings before the committee to a
bare minimum. to such a degree. in
deed. that some government workers
may think that they have not had
proper chance to be heard.
The broad principles of reclassifi-
cation, however, are well agreed to
on the part of most everybody inter
ested in the matter, and the claims of
individuals and even individual
classes of workers were adequately
presented to the Redistribution COM
mission last year.
| with further hearings on reclassifi-
| cation there probably will be no hest
! fancy on the part of leaders to take
this step. 1t is for the interest of
| all. 1t is claimed. that this action be
| taken II found necessary.
