AMENDMENT
BEATEN
Treasury and +Postoffice De-
partment Employees to Retain
Present Status for Year

The House yesterday. by an almost
unanimous vote, defeated the Smoot
amendment to the Treasury and
Postoffice Departments appropria-
ton bill, which would authorize de-
partment heads to classify employees
in the field service of their depart
ment
The House vote followed a heated
attack upon the amendment by
Congressman Charles I. Stengle Of
New York
that the amendment would defeat
the entire classification act and
would create competition which
would disrupt the Government serv-
ice"
The amendment, Congressman
Stengle said, wiped out all legal
salaries and gave department heads
absolute leeway in fixing new
salaries.
The House adopted. in lieu Of
the Smoot amendment, an amend.
ment which would keep the present
status for another year. Under
this amendment the field service
employees will receive the f240
bonus and the to 8 per cent in
creases authorized by Congress at
the last session. The way lis left
open for classification of these posi-.
lions during the coming year.
