early settlement OF Cuba'S student
problem was partially dispelled this
evening.
The naming of university Com
mission" composed Of two represent
atiVes of each school in the University

cember by presidential decree, offered
the brightest ray Of hope. The commits
sion viii treat with the government for
reopening Of the university.
Members of the student directory an
nounced themselves In accord with the
plan.
One youth was shot in the leg and
10 persons were placed under arrest
when secret police raided a meeting Of
students here last night.
The wounded youth, Gustavo San
chez Hernandez, 20, was bystander.
Curious at the sound OF connection, he
rushed to the scene of the disturbance
only to be shot
Police said the students had gath
cred secretly at the home of Sonora
Leonora Borjas Gonzalez. Senior Con-
xaleZ and her daughter were among
the 10 arrested, the eight others being
students. The woman's husband, from
whom she is separated, was formerly

SATURDAY HOLIDAYS
COUNTED AS FULL DAY
District Heads Rule Employees TAX
ing Mornings Of Will Lose
Full Day From Leave.

The District Commissioners, It was
learned today, ruled that employees who
take leave on Saturday mornings here
after SO as to have a whole-day holiday
will have full day deducted from their
annual or sick leave. This is in ac-
cordance, it was said, with the ruling
made by the Treasury last week.
The rule will have the effect OF dis
couraging those employees who seek a
fuil days absence under the Saturday
hali-holiday law, which is effective the
year round. A good many employees, it
IS understood, applied for leave last
saturday morning instead of working
until i o'clock. which is the regular
hour Of dismissal under the new law.
The commissioners action is based
on the statement in the law that four
hours on Saturday constitutes q full
days work. Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon made the ruling, which the
commissioners have adopted, applics Bile
TO all employees in the Treasury.

up" campaign commencing April 20.
Applicants will be interviewed be-
tween 8 am. and noon in room 507
of the District Building, each day dur
ing the remainder Of the week, includ-
ing Saturday. 1t had been planned
originally only to devote two days to
the initial enrolment, but as few
people evidently are aware of the plans
1t was decided to extend the interviews
two additional days. The enrolment
will be followed by others during sue
ceeding weeks, to be announced later
VIII Fill Many Jobs.
The committee is sponsoring the 1891
cleanup campaign in Washington so
that the activity incident to cleaning
up this year may be co-ordinated with
the giving Of employment. 1t Is the de-
sire of the committee to have available
for prospective employers during the
campaign number of competent men
and women trained as bricklayers, car
penterS, decorators, gardeners, handy
men, housemaids, housemen, laborers,
masons, painters, piasterers. plumbers,
roofers, Seamstresses, timers and up
holsterer.

views, their qualifications being noted
and their names hled. The committee
also said 1t would investigate such ref
erenceS as are presented BY this
method the committee will have con-
fldence in the ability of persons placed
at work during the cleanup campaign,
and employers also may have confidence
in the ability Of the persons whom they
hire through the committee.
Interviews Sought.
There has been some inquiry as to
why the committee has not taken the
names of prospective workers from the
files of the Public Employment Service
at 40 Louisiana avenue, where are kept
the records Of last years unemployment
census.
In answer the committee stated that
a personal interview with each appli-
cant for work was desired. Since it Is
impossible to guarantee work to the
applicant during the campaign, the
committee hesitated to summon any one
for an interview. Instead, it is taking
the names of those who voluntarily
present themselves at the office in the
hope Of finding work during the cam
paign.
