LEGAL POINT

Excavating contractors won
round in the battle with the strik-
ing members of the Steam Shovel
and Hosting Engineers Union to-
day, when Corporation Counsel
Francis H. Stephens gave a formal
opinion that when a licensed en-
gineer IL on a steam shovel or
hoisting apparatus the actual OPP
orator of such a machine' need nos
be licensed.
Mr.. Stephens opinion followed
two additional arrests OF non-unfon
operators of excavating apparatus,
who were charged with violating
the law requiring steam engineers
licenses for their work. Five had
been arrested Saturday and yeste--
day.
The corporation counsel ordered
his assistants in the Police Court
to strike out those cases where a
licensed engineer accompanied the
man arrested.
The contractors claim that the
opinion ia a considerable victory
and will permit the operation OF an
even greater number of cranes and
steam shovels than now are in
use. 1t was stated after a meeting
of the excavating contractors, last
night, that So out of so shoveIs,
cranes, etc, now are in operation.
At union headquarters, 1T was
declared that the strike was pro-
crossing satisfactorily to that or
Ranization, and the added statement
was made that there may be a
break any minute" None Of the
union officials would say what kind
of a "break" was anticipated.

GIRL, IN ATTACK,
FINALLY FREE

After Is days of confinement in
the House of Detention, without
any charge against her, Gladys
Howard, 14-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Howard, of
Fort Myer Heights, Va, has been
released, and returned to her
mother.
A week ago three Georgetown
men, charged with assault on the
girl In Montgomery county, Md.
were released from Jail under bond.
to await trial.
Threatened nervous breakdown OF
the child's mother, from worry over
her daughters plight, resulted in
the girls release last night.
The girl was taken in custody
by Mrs. Elmer Jacobs, Arlington
county policewOman, and commit
ted to the House of Detention in
the District Of Columbia on March
81. There was no charge against the
child anywhere, but District police
women held her the Is DAYS at
the request of Mrs. Jacobs.
The case attracted particular at
tention. due to the recent charges
by Judge Kathryn Sellers, OF the
Juvenile Court, that policewomen
and welfare workers have been ac-
customed to use the House Of De.
tention as a place Of illegal i'm
prisonment for women and children.
Nearly three weeks ago, Gladys
ran away from home. following q
family quarrel. Two days later.
| while returning home on bus, she
was arrested and turned over to
Mrs. Jacobs.
1t was during the period of her
disa ppearance that she is alleged to
have been attacked by the three
accused men. The case has been
set for a grand jury hearing in
Rockville, Md. next November.

1000 81 7 Ed
To LOSE JOBS

Large shifts in Government per-
sonnet, resulting in an ultimate
reduction of Federal employees in
Washington and elsewhere be-
tween now and September, are
scheduled as result Of legislation
passed by this session Of Con-
gress.
From authoritative sources to-
day it was learned that the Treas
ury Department probably viii un-
dergo a shift of personnel that
will involve between 1000 or
1000 and that the Interstate Com
merce Commission is likely to
lose several hundred people.
Treasury Loses Most
The Bureau OF Internal Revenue
and the public debt Of the Treasury
are scheduled for the greatest losses.
At the same time it was learned
that other smaller offices of the
Federal establishment in Washing
ton, including principally the mixed
claims commissions adjusting claims
| between this country and Mexico
and Germany, probably will be re-
duced in numbers.
There is every indication that at
least a part of these losses will be
made up by an expansion in the
| office Of the supervising architect
of the Treasury to take care OF
the work expected to result from
the passage of the omnibus public
buildings bill by Congress.
The public buildings bill, which
appropriates some 5000, 900, pro-
vides that $50, 900, 900 of this amount
shall be spent for erection of pub
lie buildings in Washington. The
remainder Of the money will be eX-
pended by the supervising architect
of the Treasury.
Commission To Expand
Inasmuch as the building pro-
gram in the District OF Columbia
will be directly under the Puphc
Buildings Commission, 1t Is. antlcl'
pated that there will be large In
crease in the personnel OF this: oody'
which now has only a secretary.
III is HOI hIbO"I AAO" A@A O.
crease. will be, and it is probable
that this will not be known until
such time as the actual work starts
and the needs are found out.
The personnel reductions in the
public debt will result, 1t was
learned, from a rapid decrease In
the work of this branch OF tne
treasury. A large part OF the
nubIic debt has been adjusted 20
more or less permanent status.
There are about ] 500 persons en-
gagged in the public debt work
| and it is thought that several hum
/ dred will be released.
Losses in the Bureau OF Internal
Revenue will result directly from
the new revenue bill which greatly
dirninishes the number of tax re-
turns
In the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, the personnel reductions
are expected to result from the
lessening of work of making Valua
tions of the railroads.

EARLY MERGER
ACTION SEEN

Indication of early action on the
merger of the Capital Traction and
Washington Railway and Electric
Companies were received today
when the District Commissioners
sent letter to Senator Arthur
Capper, chairman of the Senate
District Committee. asking that
legislation providing for the re.
routing Of street cars near the
baseball park and the opening of
q new street, be deferred.
A bill providing for the opening
of a new street near the ball park
between Georgia Avenue and Ninth
Street Northwest, was sent to Con-
gress some time ago, but the letter
from the city heads said:
"In view of the possibility OF
rerouting some OF the street cars
on Georgia and Florida Avenues
should q merger of the street
railway companies be accomplished,
it is suggested that no action be
taken on the bill at present. The
improvement proposed Is needed
urgently, but under the circum.
stances 1t is recommended that ac-
ton on the proposed Legislation be
deferred"
That the traction interests ana
the Public Utilities Commission are
gradually coming to an understand
| ing was limited in an interview by
Engineer Commissioner j. Franklin
Bell
I'VE are coming to the point
where the ideas which are to be
| incorporated in merger plan can
be given definite consideration" he
said.
While commission officials are
uoncommittal as to what trans
pired during the conference yester.
day, when F. w. Doolittle, vice
president of the North American
Company, visited the District Build
| ing, it is understood that the fea-
lures of the plan to be submitted
| for the consideration of the com
mission were discussed.

adoption Of regulation which
would provide that all public
utilities should take precautions to-
see that such leaks are stopped and
the crevices sealed.
From a report received by the
commission 1t was learned that In
many cases sewer gas. escaping
into residences and stores had made
the air dangerous to occupants.
Reports Of irregular and u1sservi !
able tracks OF street Runway com
panies have also reached the com
mission. 50 IT was said that con
