A cherries Christmas season looms
today in the home of flve young ap-
prentice printers, two of them fathers,
who have been forced out of their jobs
at the Government Printing ONCE be-
cause they violated rules imposed by
Public Printer George H. Carter forbid
ding apprentices to marry during their
period of training.
Mr.. Carter today declined to give the
name of the fifth young man. He ex-
planned he had not divulged the names
Of the others and would not do so in
this case.
Mr.. Carter admitted today there
probably will be other designations soon
for the same cause. He has reasons to
believe, he said, that several more ap-
prenticeS are concealing the fact OF
their marriage. Their designations will
come automatically when their identity
becomes known.
About Eight Dropped.
Out Of 1856 boys In the apprenticeship
school this year, Mr.. Carter said that
about eight have been dropped for
marrying. All of them signed papers
knowing, he said, that they would be
required to resign automatically IN the
event of their marriage.
Their designations, Mr.. Carter said,
will not affect them under the Civil
Service, since each is without pretu-
dice"
Whether these young men win be
reinstated Is another matter. The
Public Printer said it Is hard to make
exceptions, but the cases may receive
consideration.
The ban on marriage was imposed
because the apprentices are under 81
years Of age when they enter, and such
a ruling was believed best for the
morale of the office, he explained, as
well as for the youths themselves.
The two fathers who have joined the
ranks of the unemployed are Lloyd
Traynor. 20, 312 A street northeast, and
George Taylor, 20, 730 Thirteenth
street southeast. The other known
members Of the jobless quintette are
Eric Gafield, 20, 1912 Potomac avenue
southeast. and Vincent Reid, 20, 254
Fourteenth street northeast
Three Of the young married men were
given the choice of resigning without
prejudice" to thsir cases or being dis
