Classification Board to Ignore
Mistake in Text and Stick
to intent.

Assurances were given today by
the personnel classification board
that the minimum rates Of pay
in the custodial service Largely
for manual laborers and char
women-would be corrected and
that mistakes in the text of the
Redistribution law would be
ignored.
Not the Intent.
Senator Sterling and Congressman
Lehlbach believe that It is feasible
to ignore the letter of the law and
proceed in the way which was OBJ.
viously the intent of Congress. The
law as it now stands has minimum
salaries of $3.50 and $840 in grade
two of the custodial service and $500
and $3.50 in grade three. The law,
as intended to be passed by Con.
gress, however, should have had
minimum rates of $500 and $1,000
for the two grades.
The bill clerks of the House and
Senate today were busy in ascer-
tanning just how the textual errors
in the engrossing of the law oc-
Cured. It is understood that the
mistake will be corrected by send
ing to the State Department a re-
vised copy of the law.
Procedure Not Known.
The exact procedure to be fol-
lowed by the personnel classification
board has not yet been made public.
It will hold no oral hearing, how
ever, and all suggestions or COM
munications will have to be made
to it in writing.

As she threatens to leave.
After all, what's the difference
Between married life and battle 7
In both are used deadly gases,
And there In an awful rattle.
Men have survived shells and bull
lets
And come through war unscarred,
But when they've tried married life.
Oh. gosh! but they've been Jared!
OKLAHOMA PETE.
