SALARY CUT
PROVISION
KILLED

The pay cut provision of the
second deficiency appropria-
ton bill, under which $500
Government employees here
would have suffered salary re-
ductions totalling $500,0OO, has
been eliminated from the bill
by the Senate Appropriations
Committee.
The action was taken by the Sen
ate committee late. last night after
hours of wrangling over this feature
of the bill. The Senate probably
will vote on the action of its com.
mittee today.
There is little doubt that the Sen
ate will adopt the recommendations
of its committee and leave the pay
slash amendment out OF the bill.
Expects Victory
The bill will then go to con
ference and the final verdict on the
nav reductions will he in the hands
of the conferees. 1t is probable that
the Senate will win and that the
House amendment will be left out OF
the bill entirely or at least drastl-
cally modified.
An effort to attach rider to the
bill giving Federal pay boost in
stead of cut probably will be made
by Senator Brookhart when the bill
reaches the Senate floor.
Brookhart has introduced an
amendment carrying out the salary
increases provided in the bill he
introduced early in the session to
amend the Welch salary act.
For Second Raise
That amendment Is designed TO
give a second raise to those en-
ployes in the lower grades of the
service who got only one raise out
of the WeIch act
Big Fight Seen
Senator Brookhart announced to-
day that when the deficiency bill
comes up he will move 10 suspend
the rules in order to consider his
amendment. This means that there
will be a determined fight TO put
the pay increase amendment across.
The National Federation of Fed
eraI Employees came TO Brookharts
aid today with letter to each Sen.
ator urging adoption of the Brook
hart amendment
The letter which was signed by
Luther &. Steward. president de-
clared that this may be the only
opportunity Senators will have, At
this session, to right the inequities
in the administration of the Welch
act, and We urge you to support
the BroOkhart amendment, which
will help the low paid employees
without taking anything away from
those in the higher salary ranges"

SENA TORS
TOVOTEON
MARKET

With threats of filibuster
averted by an agreement to
limit debate, the Senate will
vote today on the Stalker bill
to locate the Farmers Market
in Southwest Washington. /:
Before the final vote, however,
there will be a vote on an amend
ment proposed by Senator Tydings,
tion of a site for the market by a
commission appointed by the P,resi.
dent.
Glass Breaks FiIibuster
The bill now provides that the
market shall be located on the
blocks bounded by Tenth, Eleventh,
E and G Streets Southwest.
The bill was apparently in the
throes of a filibuster yesterday
afternoon after the Senate had re.
jected an amendment proposed by
Senator Capper of Kansas, to pro-
vide for selection of site by the
Secretary of Agriculture, the Ma.
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission and the Superintendent
OF Markets.
The filibuster was broken. how,
ever, late in the evening when
Senator Glass of Virginia, in charge
of the measure, threatened to hold
the Senate in session throughout
the night unless an agreement 10
vote on the bill today was reached.
Tydings Hopeful
The Senate then agreed that after
$3.50 today debate on the bill will
be limited to speeches of 10 min
utes.
Tydings believes that in spite Of
the adverse vote yesterday on the
Capper amendment he has a chance
TO get his amendment adopted
today.
The Maryland Senator bases his
hopes on the fact that the vote
Yesterday showed that he has -
votes, whereas he formerly had
only II. He believes this total can
be Increased today enough 10 put
the amendment over.

ETCHIKAN LEGION

A committee from the Ketchikan
 post of the American Legion. has
 returned from their expedition to
 Tongass island, bringing two excel
 lent specimens of the nearly lost art of totem pole carving. Altho these poles have been standing on the shores of Tongass island for at least 50 years, they are in an ex- cellent state of preservation, and with a reasonable amount of recon and care will last for a number of years to come. 1t is the plan of the Legion post to request the City of Ketchikan to set aside a parcel of ground, whereon these and other totems may be erected and preserved to posterity as origi- nal examples of the handicraft of the early Alaska natives. The own ership of the poles remains with the native people, the Legion stand ing sponsor for their care and pro- lection.
