100000 LISTED
IN DISTRICT

Washington will fall short of
the expected mark of 100000 in
habitants by 10000 in spite of a
recheck of the Census Bureau.
it was Indicated by j. Sterling
Moran, supervisor of the District
census.
The recount added another
4,50O to the total which is now
estimated at 100000. This is an
increase of slightly over II per
cent since the last census was
taken.s
This figure, which is lower
than was expected, is not re-
garded as an entirely true pic
ture of the situation because Of
the enormous growth in the last
few years of nearby Maryland
and Virginia.
Moran denied that there had
been any carelesSness in the
original census taking in the Dis
trict.
The Capital still ranks as the
fourteenth largest city in the
United States.

Senate READY
FOR PAY BILL +

With the expected return to-
morrow of Senator Brookhart
(R.) of Iowa, the Senate prob
ably will accept the House amend
ments to the Brookhart bill to
correct the inequalities" Of the
WEIGH pay act affecting several
thousand classified employees of

President is reported ready to
sign the bill.
Il the Senate accepts the COM
paratively minor amendments Of
the House, passage of the Iill
will be expedited and it will not
be necessary to send 1t to con
ference committee.
The House omitted the retro
active feature Of the Senate bill,
but added an amendment reStor-
ing the power of the Personnel
Classification Board. In explain
ing the bill, which provides, in
effect, that Government en-.
ployes who received only $50 in

interpreted, will now get $120,
while those receiving $120 will be
booster to $500 altogether, Chair
man Lehlbach, of the House Civil
Service Committee, said:
81 have explained the full
purpOrt and the scope of the
original bill. But the House
committee reported It out with
an amendment, which at the
same time restores the author
ity Of the Personnel Classifica-
tiOn Board in reviewing and
revising ALLEGATION that here
tOfOre existed, but of which
the board was stripped by a
ruling Of the Comptroller Gen
eral. That destroys the uni
fOrmity of salaries throughout
the service, because to insure
it you must have one central
agency that has the last say.
This restores that part 6f the
law as 1t was before the Opin-
ion of the Comptroller General
changed it,"

Allowance Of IS or 20 Cents a
Day Can Be Saved or Used
To Buy Them Little Extras

The District Commissioners are
expected to use power given them
a year ago to authorize payment
of nominal sum to prisoners at
Lorton Reformatory "as an en-
couragement" to work.
A working capital fund has
been set up which is to pay for
machinery and materials for the
Shops and also the workers. II
the District Appropriation bill is
not passed, however. it will delay
putting this plan into operation.
Help for New Start
At present, although the prison
ers produce over 5000, 900 in goods
each year, they receive no money.
It is intended that they be given
Is or 20 cents day which can
be used as spending money or
can be saved until they leave.
George S. Wilson. director of
Public Welfare, explained that
this small sum is not to be con-
sidered as wage. He pointed
out that at present a prisoner
when discharged is given a suit
of clothes and IS. Under the
new scheme if Is or 20 cents q
day is saved prisoners would have
a better start.
Laundry Ready
This is regarded as IAN enter
ing wedge If industries at the
Reformatory prosper and the
capital fund increases, it will be
possible to pay the prisoners
bit more.
At present those who are sent
to the workhouse for non-Support
are paid so cents a day and the
money is sent to their families.

There's often more wit and wis
dom in a cartoon or comic strip
than tie orations which appear
in the Congressional Record. Rep
resentative John J. Boylan CD
Of New York. said today. He an
nounced he will start anew his
campaign for "modernization" Of
the Record, the official diary Of
Congress.
His ire was aroused by a refusal
to let him have cartoon repro
duced in the Record
"The Congressional Record
should reflect the manners
good or bad-the customs. the
habits, the inventions, the art,
the thought, the opinions. the
ups and downs Of American life
and civilization.
ITO the historian Of future
years it should furnish material
by which he can reconstruct the
great American scene and all
the figures who play their parts
thereOn--the Presidents, mem
bers Of Congress-. philosophers,
, poets, artists. prize-fighters and
athletes.
''There should be room for a
Babe Ruth as well as a Speaker
LOngwOrth; for Lindbergh and
Byrd as well as for Presiden'
Hoover"
The first step in the "moderni
zation program" he said, is to re,
produce timely cartoons, comic

materials which make an up-to'

CRIME DOESN'T P-4Y

There is some sort of moral or lesson
to be pointed out from the affairs OF the
Fleagle family-something to the effect
that crime does not pay.
Little Jake" Fleagle died in q Kansas
hospital Wednesday from bullet wound
inflicted by one of a score of policemen
who had sought him for two years fol-
lowing a brutal hold-up and murders III
Colorado.
For two years this particular Fleagle
lived the life of hunted beast, with no
chance to enjoy any money he may have
obtained in the robbery. One of his COM
panions in that affair was his brother
Ralph, whom the state Of Colorado exc
cuted last July. Two others, not tleagleS
but members of the gang, We're also
hanged with him.
A third Fleagle. Fred. was freed by
Little Jake's" dying confession that ne
and not Fred robbed a Kansas bank. Fred
still has some explaining to do to the law
on tax evasion law.
The fourth Fleagle, Walter, is serving
a term in a Kansas Jail for failing to
make tax payments to the government on
money which his brothers accumulated
in their robberles.
All of the Fleagles were comparative
ly young men. Jake and Ralph are
gone. Fred and Walter still have a
chance to make good, but the chances are
against them doing so.
Had the four of them applied the same
brains and energy to legitimate business
that they did to crime, there would today
be four live Fleagles, successful IN lie
and respected by their fellowmen.
