Third Degree Cases
Pushed By BIGntOn
Stirred CitY In 1925

The present probe of third-de-
gree methods of police here by
high Government officials recalls
similar inquiries in past years,
particularly the one in the spring
of 1923 instigated by Representa-
tive Thomas L. Blanton of Texas.
The fiery member Of the House
District Committee, who alter
nately praised WaShingtOn's pO-
lice force as "the finest ever" and
then raked it across the Goals as
permeated with graft and en-.
gagged in everything from hi.jack-
ing Of liquor to framing his client,
Policeman Orville Staples, is ex-
pected to renew his fight at this
session.
Mr.. Blanton obtained a formal
hearing of his charges by a dis
trict subcommittee, and was re-
sponsible for a sweeping investi-
CATION of the police department
in March and April, 1928, and
weeks following.
Beating, Death Charged
He specifically charged that
Herman Gross, colored, said by
officers to have hanged himself
in his cell, was really beaten to
death by policemen. He added:
81 am going to show that lots
of prisoners have been beaten
nm in station houses, I am going
to expose the third degree"
This threat was made during
the examination of Capt. Ira
Sheetz of the Third Precinct April
4, 1928.

Clyde Kelly of Pennsylvania had
been beaten up by officers after

Because Of the fact that the

That personal income taxes

That q temporary emergency

governor estimated would come

That cities and counties be

That the legislature declare

PAY SCALE WAR
. THREATENED

Adoption Of the current wage
schedule paid by the District gov
ernment as the prevailing wage
scale to be paid by contractors
doing District work, has been
recommended to the District Com
misSioners by Major Holland l..
Robb, assistant engineer commits,
Sioner.
The action Is expected to bring
a storm Of protest from union Ia
Dor representatives. The munich
pal scale Is approximately half
of the fixed union wage schedule.
The Commissioners deferred
action on the recommendation
until next week. The reconlmen-
dation was made to solve fight
over the prevailing wage law
adopted last winter by Congress.
viii Equal Scale
Major Robb also announced
that he had recommended to the
Commissioners acceptance Of a
low bid made by A. Lloyd Goode,
Inc, Of Charlotte, N. c., for con-
Struction Of a 10-room addition
to the Paul Junior High School.
Major RObb said officials of
the contracting company had
signed an agreement to pay work
men wages equal to the District
scale.
The scale is only slightly higher
than the wages now paid by non
union contractors. The District
scale for an eight-hour day Is
as follows:
Mechanic group: Trade fore
men, $7.84: senior mechanics,
$7.84; mechanics, 1854; junior
mechanics, $5.92: minor mechan-
les, $5.2S: sub mechanics, $4.64.
Labor group: Labor foremen,
Sc; labor sub foremen, $500;
skilled laborers. $4.24; laborerS,
$3.50; drivers, 1886; watchmen,
1912; junior laborers, 81.
Higher Pay Unlikely
In the event the Commissioners
adopt the recommendation,
chances for wOrkmen on municipal
building projects to obtain higher
wages from contractors will be
greatly reduced.
Interpreting the provisions Of
the Bacon-Davis law, which pro-
vides the prevailing wage be paid
on Government building projects,
Corporation Counsel William W..
Bride said the only complaint
made after the award Of such
contracts would come from the
contractor, the district or a work
man employed on a job.
The Department Of Labor, in
the event of complaints, would
ultimately settle the dispute.
