Saturday Half Holidays and
D. C.. Institutions
Law Now of No Benefit to Many Workers

Executives Of the District Government have become
saturated with the wild fear prevailing among Federal
Government executives that employees will find ways Of
abusing the Saturday hahoday law that they have joined
to extent in that abuse the rights given
employees in the new law
In TRUTH Governmental executives throughout Washington
mainly engaged in finding ways possible to off
set the Saturday hahoday law and to take from employees
all they of what the law gives them.
The aim of all these is doubtless effort to
prevent having Congress for appropriations for add
tonal employees and yet Congress passed this law with the
knowledge that most likely would require additional en-
ployes.
IF an employe in the District building does to
work on Saturday be charged whole
day will get credit for his Saturday afternoon off,
It will be interesting to know how this ruling adopted by
the Treasury ao is going to affect annual leave when en-
ployes go away for two three weeks month Will
they be allowed the time given them in the hahodays law?
In some District departments employees will get Saturday
afternoons This applies the guards at the Occoquan and
Lorton institutions the District jail the guards have been
80 few that most them duty Sundays and holidays
There should long ago have been guards at the jail and
other penal institutions that hardworked men, with re-
sponsible difficult positions might be treated half way right
Saturday half holidays just in principle then the la"
should apply all public service workers. It should partlcu
lary apply those duty hours each day and oe
prived Of Sundays and holidays It should apply TO all
per diem employees. g.
This matter must worked out in spirit OF fairness oy

be taken on.

Editor, Times:
Once it was the Stone Age.

records the passage of the de-

or years before she does any
thing radical. Even the heroine
of that popular novel, "Ex-
Wife," had to be thrown
through a glass door before she
could be convinced that she
wasn't wanted"
Divorce and tooth-pulling are
such expensive and nerve-Wreck-
ing processes to face; and even
q bad tooth or an unsatjSfac-
tory husband can be cruelty
missed.
Besides, the void is horribly
noticeable and attracts SO much
attention, sympathy and curl
osity. An appendix, a rib or a
tcnsil may be dispensed with in
comparative privacy; but losing
a tooth or a husband is a
matter of public interest and
concern. There is no hiding
the fact!
All your friends want to know
how, when or why you got rid
of it-or him-and If you are
seriously considering replacing
the loss. It hurts a woman's
vanity dreadfully, and is an
awful strain on her inventive
ness and ingenuity. It is so
hard to "explain!"

ONCE-OVERS
A Salute to Youth

Are you one Of those persons
who believes that young people
in general are on the way to
ruin?
You shudder when you hear
Of some of their doings.
You compare their freedom Of
manner with the reserve of your
day.
You think modesty has been
discarded and gallantry no
longer exists.
Your imagination depicts the
decadence of the human fam
lily.
AS you see it, the devil leads
the procession of girls and boys.
It is evident that you have
failed to keep abreast of the
times.
You have failed to take into
account the false modeSty that
was characteristic of youth in
your time.
Now there is frankness and
greater equality Of the sexes.
Young folk are better in
formed, more independent, bet
ter able to protect themselves
because of their knowledge and
fearleSSneSs.
The clinging-vine girl IS sell
dom seen nowadays.
The healthy, wholesome, ath-
letic girl has taken her place
and she is one not so easily de-
ceived because she knows some
thing of what life means.
The girl of today need not be
coarse and vulgar, though she
be as well informed as her par
ents in many matters.
