LEHLBACH BILL
DUE To FAIL

Reconsideration legislation so far
this session has not aroused much
interest in Congress.
While It appears the Lehlbach
resolution abolishjng the Personnel
Classification Board will be favor.
ably reported by both the House
and Senate Civil Service committees
opposition to the measure seems as
formidable ~ ever.
Senator Reed Sn1oot. champion of
the Bureau OF Efficiency and arch.
foe OF the Federation Of Federal
Employees, is determined to prevent
the enactment OF the bill by the
Senate. The propaganda started
against the Smoot Brown classified
ton group by the new Civil Service
League, Of which DIR. Ellery G..
Stowell is the head. has aroused
much bitterness among supporters
Of the Utah Senator
The net result of the campaign
OF the Civil Service League. accord
ing to Senator Shoots group. has
been to end all possibility of q COM
promise on new Justification legls-
lation and to reopen old feuds
which had all but been forgotten.
It is expected that the House and
Senate Civil Service committees will
take up the Leh1bach resolution as
soon az civil service retirement
legislation is disposed of. The
belligerent mood of the Smoot fac
ton in the Senate and the group
headed by Representative win r.
Wood in the House, however, makes
early action upon 1t extremely diff
cult.

CHILE MAY ASK
LEAGUE MD

President Coolidge having prompt
Nv sustained Gen. John J. Perish
ing in his conduct of the Tacna-
africa plebiscite arrangements, Ad-
ninistration officials were regard
ing somewhat anxiously today
Cnile's next step in endeavoring to
escape from the conditions Perish
ing has imposed.
An appeal to the League Of Ma
lions from President Coolidge's de-
cision as arbitrator is frankly an
ticipated by some officials-an en-
barrassing development from the
standpoint Of this Government.
Anticipating just such de-
cision as President Coolidge has
rendered, Chile took the preliminary
step toward calling for league help
some weeks ago by filing a brief
of it's case at Geneva. Whether
the Chileans will now follow up
that action with a direct appeal to
the league. and whether the league
would interfere if they did, are
matters that remain to be seen.
President COolidge's decision as
arbitrator was clear.cut denial of
the charges which the Chilean gov
eminent has made against General
Pershin2'n work in africa.

New Type Of Film Promises to Change
Motion Picture Lighting Systems

Fall meeting. it was said the new film
makes possible not only proper rem
dering of tone values on the screen

glaring light or heavily plastered
makeup.
Substitution of the panchromatic
film for the present orthochromatic.
which is sensitive only in the violets,
blues and green's, the paper explained,
allows scenic artists. camera men, di-
rectors and actors themselves to see
the distribution of tone values in a
