tive Madden of Illinois for the leasing

prove the Norris resolution which pro-
vides for Government operation OF
Muscle Shoals
Although the President thinks sum

II should come TO him, those about the
President are In position to know
that It Is not exactly what he would like
to have In the matter OF legislation for
the disposal of that project. He Is
satisfied. however. that the Madden bill
is the best one that has been proposed.
It's principal attraction according to
the Presidents viewpoint il that 1t puts
the project under private operation.
Moreover. the President has assurances
that this bill Is much desired by large

CITY |NC|NERAT0RS.
Urue Transfer Station Where
Collectors Could Deliver
Loads OF Refuse.

An adverse report on the Capper bill
providing for the establishment Of
three modern high-temperature In
cinerators within the District was sent
to Congress today by the Commits
sioners
The present method OF garbage dis
posal, the Commissioners said, Is salts
factory from the standpoint Of nom
nuisance as we'll as financial, and that
while additional facilities are needed for
the disposal OF miscellaneous refuse, IL
Is proposed 10 remedy this condition
through erection OF a transfer station,
where collecting units would deliver
their loads for transportation 70 an
adequate dumping ground. The Com
missiorers also point out that the Bud
get Bureau has reported TO them tnat
the bill is in conflict with the financial
program Of President Coolidge.
The Commissioners believe that one
incnerator Is all that Is necessary or
advantageous since sites for three IN
cinerators would be exceedingly difficult
TO procure, as in every section there
would be objections from residents the
report declared.
Moreover the advantage IN decTeds-
ing the length OF haul would not COM
pensate for the additional cost Of opera
ton, and distribution of this hauling TO
the several points would be more obtec-
tionable than concentration OF haul TO
one point. where presumably consider
able area would be required for this and
like purposes.
The Commissioners are OF the opin-
ion that they should continue the poll
Icy of operating a salvage plant as an
aid to the disposal of miscellaneous
refuse and that in conjunction with in
cineratfon, trash plant should be
built to replace the one now leased at
Montello avenue and Mount Olivet road
northeast. which plant should be sum-
GENTLY adequate 10 care not only for
miscellaneous refuse, but also for refuse
from the Federal Government, business
houses, etc"

to lose valuable services through low
salaricd scale"
Salary Raises Small.
Mr.. Taylor declared that pay rates
In the Government, for many years
too low, have been little raised since the
war although the cost OF living the
country over had mounted 10 II per
cent more in December, 1927. than 1t
was In 1918"
He advised the cdmmitte that proper
reclassilcation is one OF the most i'm
portant things In the field service. AZ
an indication of how low salaries are
In the Department Of Agriculture, com
pared with the cost OF living, Mr.. Tay-
ior called attention 10 coffin club in
The department which has more than
fourteen hundred members, On the
death OF the member this organization
pays small death benefit towards ft-
neral expenses and after every four
deaths assesses each member 81. He ex-
planned that this avoids "interment III
the potters field"
BY way of contrast he pointed out
that the Department OF Agriculture Is
the greatest research organization in
agriculture of the wealthiest nation in
the world.
BiiI Gives Higher Standards.
Mr.. TAYLOR said that the Welch bill
IL enacted would enable higher stand
ards to be employed In selecting per-
sonnel. would tend To reduce costly
turnover, would stimulate the present
personnel and should substantially in
crease the productive capacity OF every
employe.
He described 1t as a great prosperity
measure" saving that the underpaid
employees whose status would be some
what relieved are only part of the pic
ture. The money paid in for the slight
ly increased salaries would be imme-
diately returned TO regular channels oi
trade through additional needed arti-
cles purchased The peculiar advan-
tage and benefit of the bill" he said
would be the inevitable improvement
In service given by the Government
employees. Morale and production
would increase throughout the depart
ments. The unit cost OF production
would decline. The welfare OF the en-
tire Nation would be affected"
Assaiis Work for Love"
Mr.. Taylor emphasized particularly
that this measure tends strongly In the
direction OF efficiency. There Is much
more direct connection between the pay
check and production than has been
understood in the past. he pointed out
The love of the work theory in com
pensation of technical men Is contrary
10 sense and economies II does not
appeal TO wives who have to manage the
household budget"
Mr.. Taylor quoted Controller General
McCari AZ saying that ANY salary that
is normally paid TO q truly efiicient
Federal employe In but an infinitesimal
item In expenditures when compared
with the potential saving In such ex-
penditures that results from such
etficiency"
