WHITMAN HINTS
CRAFT ABOUNDS
Says Police Probe Will Re-
veal More Than Becker
Scandal.

NEW YORK. Jan. 21.-Asking the
additional grand jury for third
indictment will be the next step in
the inquiry. into New York City's
administration, former Gov. Charles
S. Whitman, in charge. announced
yesterday.
But Whitman said developments
thus far presage a revelation of
graft and scandal in police admin
istratiye circles greater even than
that which resulted in the electro
cution of Police Lieut.. Charles
Becker a few years ago.
The former governor was expect
ed to go before the grand jury to-
morrow to present evidence on
which he hoped to obtain the third
Indictment. Already two police Of
icials - Capt. William Bailey and
Capt. Percy Dubois-hsye been ac-'
cused of graft by the jury.
The chief graft pervading the de-
partment now, Whitman said, is
that fees for protection are levied
on reputable business men instead
of on lawbreakers, as was the case
in the days of Becker. Many in
stances have been brought to light,
it was said, where police had ex-
acted their share of benefit in cases
even where private policemen had
been hired to guard a factory or a
store,

PENSION BUREAU
TO ASK REVISION !.
OF LEHLBACH ACT
Sees Injustice to Many
Faithful Employees
And Other Defects.

Revision of the sterling-Lehibach
retirement act, the administration
of which has shown many imper-
fections, will be recommended by
the United States Bureau of PEN
slons, 1t was learned Thursday.
The board of actuaries of the
Pension Bureau has asked for rec
tommendations from the government
departments and is now consider
ing changes. aimed to improve the
law.
It is said that one Of the chief
objections to the bill as passed by
Congress last year is the alleged
injustice entailed upon many faith
full employees Of the government who
have been rendered ineligible to
participate in the benefits Of the
law because at the time they reach
ed retirement age they happened
to be temporarily out of the gov
ernment service. This is frequently
true in the case of mechanics and
other navy yard employees, IL is said
Another. alleged defect Is the
mass OF detail attendant to refund
ing. the 2h per cent contribution OF
government employees, which Is re-
turnable, upon quitting the govern
ment service. Administration of
this end alone means endless work.
bureau chiefs say. 1t has been es-
timated that the Treasury Depart
ment would save money were this
"a per cent levy upon the salaries
Of government employees eliminated
and the cost OF administering the
law borne entirely by the govern
ment. instead of only meeting half
Of the expense, as at present.
When the law FIRST became ef-
fective. last August, many super
ANIMATED employees availed them
selves OF the provision for the re-
tention Of employees for a period OF
two years who still desired to re-
main in the service after reaching
retirement age. Under the law this
two years may be extended for two
year periods up to ten years. Be-
yond that the employe cannot be
retained.
The first six-month period will
expire February 20, and the govern
ment bureaus are now adjudicating
the cases OF those employees who
desire retention beyond that date.
There are approximately thirty
FIVE of these cases in the Washing
ton Navy Yard. The New York
Navy Yard reports sixty, while navy
yards throughout the country ra-
port varying numbers.

Women wear less clothes today
than ever before and as a con
sequence America is more moral
than ever before, declared Ernest
Thompson Seton at the weekly
luncheon OF the Washington XII
wants Club. held on the roof gar.
den of the Washington Thursday
Have clothes any bearing on
sex morality" asked Mr.. Seton. q
Ink not" he said.
'The most moral people in the
world" the noted naturalist con-
tinued, were the naked tribes. Of
Africa and the first bit of degEada-
ton which beset these people, came
when missionaries began to make
them wear clothes.
In the days of the Stuarts in
France the women covered every
portion of their body, and what
kind of morals did they have? The
lowest in history.
To-day a woman's clothes weigh
only about six pounds. In those
days they weighed anywhere from
twenty to forty pounds"
Notification was given the XII
wanians that a Kiwanis club would
be formed at Hagerstown, Md, next
Tuesday night and all were urged
to go to that town for the occasion.
