SCREEN STARS
TO PART WAYS

Los Angeles, Sept. 24.-R-Miss
Lila Lee and James Kirkwood, play
crs on the stage and screen, have
come to parting Of the marital
ways, and her desire to continue her
film career has been given by Miss
Lee as cause for the rift.
The couple made weekend an
nouncement that a separation, which
the Hollywood film colony had re-
garded as temporary, would be
made permanent. Miss Lee declared
it was the result Of her conviction
that no actress could be a success
both in making home and building
a career.
Since their marriage five years
ago, Kirkwood and Miss Lee were
regarded as one of filmdom's ideal
couples despite the difference in
their ages. At the time Of the we'd
ding Miss Lee was 10, and Kirk
wood more than twice that age.

COOLIDGE IN ERROR,
FLAHERTY CHARGES
Calls President Mistaken in
Statement About Federal
Employees in Message.
That President Coolidge was mistaken

That President Coolidge was mistaken
when he said in his annual message to
Congress that Federal employees are in
fortunate position" by reason of the
fact that they are granted 80 days va
cation and 80 days sick leave claimed in
statement issued by Thomas w. Fla
herty, Secretary-treaSurer of the Ma
tional Federation of Post Office Clerks.
More than half of the civil service
employees work in post offices, according
to Mr.. Flaherty, and get only Is days
vacation and 10 days sick leave.
When Mr.. Flaherty's statement was
called to the attention of Postmaster
General New. Mr.. New said that un-
doubtedly the President in his message,
was referring to departmental employees
and to to employees in post Offices
throughout the country.
At the Civil Service Commission it
was explained that while Mr.. F'laher-
tvs figures are correct, it should be
borne in mind that the 10 days sick
leave is cumulative up to maximum of
six months. In other words, if an en-
ploye of a post Office does not use any
sick leave for several years, it can be
saved up, and, later, if he has that
1AuNA1 G4Ll1C SOILlAI4e W 1UIII, 1lC UG
sick for six months and still remain
on the pay roll.
There is no such cumulative feature
with regard to the sick leave provision
of the departmental employees, it was
explained.
Mr.. Flahertys statement is as fol-
lows.
In the Presidents message to Con-
gress the statement is made that en-
ployes in the Federal service are granted
80 days vacation and 80 days sick
leave" but this is in error in it's appli-
cation to the great body of postal service
employees.
More than half of the classified
civil service workers to whom the PreSi-
dent referred are employed in the
postal service and they receive but fif-
teen days vacation and ten days sick
leave. For many years we have sought
legislation to extend the vacation and
sick leave privileges, which are now en-
joyer by some groups of Government
employees, to the postal field workers,
but without success.
In justice to those faithful en-
ployes, the public should keep in mind
that they are not included in the for
tunate position mentioned by the
President. hope they soon will be-"

DRIVE STARTED ID CURB SMUGGLING
Attempt Commences to Enforce
 Harrison Narcotic Act

Washington, Feb. oS R Al- mittedly up against it in it's en- forcemcnt of the Harrison narcotic act, the federal narcotic bureau has now started an unrelenting drive against smuggling, which it regards as virtually the only source of sup ply for illicit drugs,
 Federal officials confess that with the present facilities it will be i'm possible to wipe out the habit in the United States unless the foreign importations are shut off entirely.
 Narcotics Commissioner Mutt holds that it Is ''fruitless ax a per mnnent proposition to proceed fur .her with curing drug addicts of their habits unless the sources Of supply of the drugs are eliminated" He recommends that states take action 10 segregate confirmed ad. vent the spread of the habit.
 A national survey recently con- pieted by the public health service, the commissioner says, disclosed 100000 addicts in the United States using about 42o,00o ounces Of drugs annually. Eighty-fve per cent of the drugs are smuggled through New York. he declares, al- though some slip in through other ports and across the Mexican bor-
