GIVES EXACT RECORD.
Yale Doctor Misquoted on Scarlet
Fever Serum.
By the Associated Press.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, January ST.
DR.. Francis G.. Blake, professor of
medicine AT the Yale Medical School,
said yesterday that he would reply to
n request received from the American
Medical Association inquiring about
reports of an address in which DR..
Blake was quoted to have stated that
a serum had been found that would
cure the most hopeless cases of scar
let fever in IL to "a hours.
The report is slightly misleading"
he said. 1T would have been more
accurate had 1t stated that in some
apparently hopeless cases a cure had
been effected by use of the serum
within period Of from "a to As hours.
The period of i2 to, "a hours applies
as l stated, only to moderately severe
cases. A period Of Be- to 4S hours has
usually elapsed before apparently
hopeless cases have become conva-
lescent."

GORDON EXPECTED
TO SUCCEED SELF
Reappointment as District
Attorney Is Probable,
Officials Say.

Reappointment Of Peyton Gordon as
United States district attorney for the
District of Columbia. appeared prob
able today, as President Coolidge left

make no promise. the reappointment
of Mr.. Gordon to the post of district
attorney was expected.

Mr.. Coolidge in the last month. and
the President is said TO have been
fsvorably impressed with the district
attorneys statement Of the condi-
ton OF District litigation. Although
other candidates are in the field. they
were said today to lack consistent
backing. and il was almost assured
that Mr.. Gordon would be reappoint-
ed.
Mr.. Gordon was appointed 10 the
post of district attorney by President
Harding in 1921. His present term ex-
pires on August II. and the reap
pointment is expected to be made by
the President while he is at swamp
scott.

man Park Hotel. has had long and
distinguished career as lawyer in

Dointment, nearly four years ago. TO

EFFICIENCY TESTS

Bureau Changes Now in e.
feet Excite Ire of Navy
Department Employees.

An order from the Bureau of Eff
cheney was put into effect at the Nav
Department today. which directs that
the efficiency marks of employees Of
this department be materially re-
duced from those which were sent in
by their superiors AT the regular
semi nnual marking As result of
the original marks given. many Of the
employees automatically would have
received increases in paw. but the ef-
feet Of the new order is to prevent
this, II is deCla AIRED.
Employees Indignant
Employees Of the depa rtment arc in
digDant over the arbitrary stand taken
by the Bureau of Efficiency and MANY
of them tore into bits their revised
efficiency figures when they were
brought TO them. 4 number of naval
officers in charge of bureaus are MAJ
ing strenuous fight to gain for rhei-
employees the return of the marks
that are due them and were based on
their efficiency.
1t was pointed OUT at the depart
ment today that practically all OF the
bureaus have been cut TO the bone
in civilian personnel and that those
who remained when the others were
disc charged in accorda nee with he re-
duction program are the most efficient
nd ferform their duties Well Manv
Of them. it was "a id. are above The
average and should retain the marks
which were originally given them in
good faith. However. the order of
the Bureau of Efficiency is being car
ried ont and all employees At the Navy
Department are being given Just av-
erage marks. which do not give them
any prospect for promotion in the
grade in which they re now working.
Chief Clerks Comment
F. s Curtis chief clerk Of the
Navy Depa rtment said that the order
had been received by the Navy De-
partment from the Bureau OF Efficien-
cy. and that it instructed cutting as
to all employees SO as to bring their
marks down TO an average
In the new marking no general
scheme was found. some of the en-
ployes being cut points. others 5
and some II. but the net result was
to bring them all down 10 the point
of rs per cent.
The revised figures now are being
collected and viii be forwarded To
the Bureau of Efhciency. The en-
ployes are openly charging unfair
ness in the whole proposition and
considera bile discomfort is being
shown.
