MUSSOLINi LIFTS CURB
ON PRESS DISPATCHES
Gives Foreign Minister Power of
Censorship Once Held by
Ministry of Interior
BY the Associated Press.


ROME, December 6.-Because of
complaints that despite his repeated
instructions to the contrary, foreign
press dispatches during the past few
months have suffered delays and
mutilation at the hands of the CEN
sorship authorities, Premier Mus
solini has taken the power to censor
news dispatches completely out of
the hands of the ministry of the in
terror which hitherto exercised it,
and has reserved the power of CEN
sorship solely for the foreign min
lister.
In addition the premier has given
strict orders against interfering with
telegraphic or telephone communi-
cations in. any way, thus practically
abolishing all censorship apart from
that privilege which is reserved for
the foreign office.
Partly owing toN the Forthcoming
session of the League of Nations
council here. and partly because of
his belief that Italian interests can
best be served by encouraging for
eign correspondents to report as fully
as possible on the internal situation,
Premier Mussolini has granted the
privilege to newspaper men of send
ing news dispatches at press rates
during the whole "a hours OF the day.
The premier it IS said, hopes to prove
that italy has nothing to hide.

HIGHLY PAID u. S. WORKERS FACE
CUT UNDER RULING IN HOUSEl
McCarI T,oice Reversed BY Appropriations Commit.
tee on "Arerage ProUison'' of CIassifc
Some Wage Boosts Also Are Effected.

Changes introduced in the average
provision of appropriation bills now
starting on their legislative journey
10 enactment for the next fiscal year,
would have a helpful effect in raising
the salaries of one class of Federal
employees. but would cause sharp re-
auctions in others, including some of
the highest paid government chiefs.
This is the Interpretation placed on
the recommendations of the House
appropriations committee, which are
included in the Interior and Agricul-
tural Department appropriations bills
and in all probability will be intro
duced into all the governments sup
ply bills
Those in close touch with the clas-
sitication act and it's workings point
out that the House appropriations
committee has recommended changes
which In two instances are the re-
verse of what Controller General Nc
Carl has decided in his Interpretation
of the much disputed average pro-
vision"
Came as Shock
The first change recommended. in
regard to grades of the classification
act, including only one person, came
as a surprise and somewhat of a
shock to those who have followed the
working out of the classification.
Under the average provision the
controller general had decided that
where there was only one person in
grade the average provision did
not control and that person might
be moved up on the scale. Con-
formative to this decision, 1t is
known that number of chiefs of
some OF the most important bureaus
in the Government were raised in
salary from relatively lower rates to
the top rung of the ladder In their
grade-namely, $500.
Cuts Chances of Raise.
The House committee takes sharp
issue with all this. 1T says the con-
troller general was wrong; that the
average provision does operate in
grades where there is only one per-
son, providing In effect that one per-
son can never draw a salary higher
than the halfway mark in the grade
The shock and full force of this
change in the average provision
would come after next July !, when
several executives higher up, who
since last July /. have been been pro-
NOTED to $500, would have to take
slide down the salary scale by
whole 81 900 and land at the $6.500
mark They cannot even go back to
the exact halfway mark in their
grade, which would be $3.50, in some
instances. because there is no such
salary provided by the act, and 1t is

PARIS QUIETS FEARS.
Debt Discussion With q. S. Is
Declared Unofficial.

By Cable to The Star and New York World
PARIS, December 6.-The CONVEX
sations regarding the debt that have
taken place between Ambassador
Jusserand and Secretary Mellon. have
been unofficial, the Quai D'Orsay
stated today.
No engagement has been entered
into either by France or the United
States. The announcement was
caused by the resentment displayed
in England over the rumors that
France was trying to come TO terms
with America before the French debt
to Great Britain has been discussed.
Whatever was the original purpose
of the French government in opening
negotiations at Washington, it is
now considered advisable not to treat
them in any way as official or as an
attempt to feel out America before
Great Britain.
The outcry in Britain has appeared
to France to indicate that France
cannot hope to get a better debt
settlement from the United States
than Britain and cannot settle even
in principle with America without
doing the same thing simultaneously
with Britain.

Gullfble inventors are being fieeced

year by these men, Mr. Robertson
said, not alone in Washington. but
by men in other cities representing
themselves to be close to the Patent

navy yard before entering the patent

molder, and the others had had nc
experience in patent work. Neither
these men, nor any member of their
staff, had any technical experience

These things go on every day, Mr.
Robertson said, but the Patent Office

insure the inventor square deal.

Mr.. Chamberlain authorized a state

sympathy with Italy, which has been
strengthened by comradeship of Ital-
ian and British soldiers during the
World War. He said he hoped by his
visit to gain a fuller understanding
of the italian feeling and to strength

stipulated that only the salaries
named in the act may be paid.
Hurts Lower Paid Workers.
This Limitation on the average pro-
vision, it is pointed out, would not
only operate against some of the high
est paid executives, but would also
cause a cut in salary among some
OF the lower paid employees in small
bureaus containing only a few per-
sons.
The second change proposed by the
House committee has the opposite
effect-that of allowing a larger in
crease than that granted by the Con-
troller General. Mr.. McCarl had ruled
that in cases where the average pro-
vision had been violated in a grade.
and il was desired to promote a per-
son from the next lower grade, he
must enter the higher grade at the
lowest pay available. In some specific
instances. notably the precedent
making Sutton case in the Treasury
Department. it would have caused a
cut in salary for a man who was
promoted. The House committee says
this was not the intent of Congress.
1T is an injustice" says the com
mittee report, lin the application of
the average Limitation to require an
employe passing from a grade to a
higher grade with more important
duties or responsibility, or both, to
suffer 4 reduction in salary along
with such a change. The committee
believes that such operation of the
average limitation is hardship
which should not continue. The num-
ber of positions affected Is very small,
but the injustice to the small num-
ber Is very great"
Change VIII he Welcomed.
This phase of classification had
caused a Yeritable furore among the
Government departments. and the
recommendation of the committee,
when its full import is realized, will
be welcomed with enthusiasm by the
great majority of Government en-
rIoyes. Specifically the recommen-
from one grade to higher grade is
not required to suffer a reduction in
compensation because of such ad-
vance"
The third change recommended by
the committee, which is simply the
striking out of three words. "or class
thereof" is regarded as inconse-
quential but as a matter of keeping
the record clear.
No figures were available either at
the personnel classification board nor
at the Government departments as to
the number of changes in salaries
which the proposed alterations in the
average provision would affect.
