BUREAU DISPUTE
AGAIN IN SENATE
UnfavorabIe Reports on Two
of CaraWay's Resolutions
Seeking More Data.

The controversy over the recent
dismissals of Director Wilmeth and
other employees of the bureau Of en-
craving and printing bobbed up again
in the Senate today when Senator
Sterling, chairman Of the civil serv-
ice committee, reported adversely
two of the Caraway resolutions seek
ing to obtain information from the
administration in regard to these dis
missals.
One Of the Caraway resolutions re-
ported adversely called upon the ad-
ministration for Information as to
whether former soldiers and sailors
had been discharged or denoted in
civil service in conflict with an act
Of 1912, which directed that former
service men should not be dismissed
or denoted as long as they were
rendering satisfactory service.
The other resolution reported ad-
versely called for the appointment OF
select committee of the Senate to
investigate the dismissals.
Third Report Due Soon.
A third resolution introduced by
Senator Caraway of Arkansas, demo
crat, calls upon the President to
furnish the Senate full information
regarding the dismissals. including
the reasons why these men and wom-
en- were dismissed without first Civ
ing them an opportunity to reply to
any charges that might be made
against them. The civil service COM
mittee Is expected to report on the
third resolution at an early date. The
expectation is that an adverse report
will be made on it also.
The report of these resolutions to
the Senate gives the Senate an op-
portunity to act on them if it de-
sires to. 1t is expected that SEN
ator Caraway will ask action.
The adverse report on the first reso-
luton is based on the contention that
the provision of the act OF 1912 is
not enforceable In that act provSion
was made for the establishment OF
efficiency ratings in all the depart
ments and bureaus by the Civil Serv-
ice Commission.
The paragraph relating to former
service men. it is held, must be con-
Sidered In connection with the pro-
yiso relating to efficiency ratings. The
!, efficiency ratings have never been es-
tablished as provided by law. There
fore it is held that the provision re-
latilg to the fcrmer service men can
not be applied.
A Previous Ruling.
AS a matter of fact, a case involv-
ing this point has already been de-
.cided by the courts of the Distric,
of Columbia. In 1915 an employe of
the navy yard, former service man.
brought action to prevent his re-
moval or demotion under the pro-
vision of the act of 1912. The Dis
trict Supreme Court and the Court of
Appeals both held that, as the ef-
f1ciency ratings had never been es-
tablished, the paragraph relating I'd
former service men was not effective
AS some Of the dismissed employees
of the bureau of engraving and
printing formerly served in the Army
and Navy, this Caraway resolution
had it's bearing on the dismissals in
the bureau.
The second Caraway resolution was
reported adversely, on the ground
that the information sought was
covered in the third Caraway resolu-

to Tender" Leonard didn't appear
and so, by all the laws governing for
felt mony, the $4,000 is Tenders.
When Gibson had voiced his con-
demnation of Tender to the heavens,
Glassman came forward and said:
Makes Condition.
eff Leonard will meet Tender III
give Leonard his $4,000 back the mo-
ment he steps into the right"
Now if Leonard wants to kill off
that Philadelphia swell-head" there's
incentive enough. He will get back
his $4,000, get bulky purse and be
privileged to bet a big part of it at
even money with Tender in fight in
which he (Leonard) perhaps will be
two to one favorite.
And if Tender really thinks he car
| murder LEONARD" all he needs to dc
lis to put up a $4,000 check to guaran
tee that side bet and, instead of fight
ing on guaranteed purse basis, work
on percentage.
But does Leonard really want tc
fight Tendler-and does Tender real
l1y want to battle Leonard? Or are
both simply wearing out the patience
of fistic fandom by loud-talk which is
nothing but bid for constant pub
licity?
