Senator Says U. S. Should

C0UZENS, BROOKHART
ALSO FOES OF PLAN
Bill for Retirement System in
Legislative Branch to Be
Taken Up Early.

Senator Dale, Republican, of Ver-
mont, chairman of the Senate Civil
Service Committee, came out yesterday
In opposition to the proposal to reduce
salaries of Government employees at the
coming session of Congress. The sug-
gestion for graduated scale of reduc-
lions was advanced several weeks ago
by Representative Wood of Indiana.
Senator Dale said he thought that If
the Government were to set an example
OF salary cutting it would have ten
dency to retard improvement of bust
ness conditions generally.
Others in Opposition.
Opposition to lowering of Govern
ment salary levels also has been voiced
within the last few days by Senator
Couzens, Republican, of Michigan, and
Brookhart, Republican, of Iowa, both
of whom are members of the Civil Serv-
ice Committee.
The bill to establish a retirement
system for employees in the legislative
branch of the Government will be one
of the questions to be taken up early In
the coming session by the Civil Service
Committee, Senator Dale said.
Report on Personnel.
The report submitted to Congress by
the Personnel Classification Board last
February. outlining a proposed revision
of the classification law, also will be
awaiting attention of the Civil Service
Committee this Winter. Senator Dale
said he expected this would be among
the matters referred to the committee
for report, but did not indicate what
he thought might be done on 1t at the
forthcoming session. This report of the
Classification Board was requested by
Congress in the WEIGH act of 1928,
which called for study Of classification
of the positions in the field service.
The boards report recommended a new
system for promotions in the Govern
ment service.

MONUMENT GUARD
LIGHTS DUE THIS WEEK
Beacons to Warn Flyers to BeS
Placed on Top of Shaft
Immediately.

The long-awaited lights for the
Washington Monument. so that the
shaft may serve as beacon to warn
aviators of its presence at night, are
expected this week.
They were shipped from Cleveland
Thursday and will be put In place
shortly after their arrival. James r.
Gill, chief of the building division, ex-
poets to place five lights each on the
north and south sides of the shaft,
with three being placed on the east
and west. This Is necessary, he ex-
planned. as equal illumination all
around would make the washington
Monument look like . round tower In
the darkness.
Further experiments will be neces-
sary to determine If the present red
eyes" can be removed from the mon
ument, but the officials are hopeful
that this can be dcne.
The Westinghouse Electric and Man
ufacturing Co. is the contractor for
the lights. which include 20 food
lighting units in each battery, one light
consisting of three 1.500-watt lamps.
Twelve 1,500-watt lamps and eight
1,000-watt lamps viii be utilized IN the
set-up.

Legation Robbery
And Staying Suspect
Denies Completely
Bedden Tells ID. C. De.
tective He Was Not i'm
Capital at Time.

William E. Beddell, sought since last
May in connection with the Cunning
ham Staying and the Ell Salvador lega-
ton liquor robbery, denied having any
knowledge of either crime when ques-
toned in New York yesterday by De-
tective Sergt. Larry O'Dea.
Beddell, arrested on forgery charge
by New York police few days ago, told
the washington detective, who inter-
rogated him in Tombs Prison, that he
was not in the Capital at the time of
the killing and robbery, which occurred
within a week of each other.
The legation, at $500 Connecticut
avenue, was robbed May 10 and DR.
Don Carlos Leiva, charge daffaires, was
attacked by one of the thieves.
Six days later Jack~H Cunningham.
police informer, was shot to death in
an alley in the rear of his I street
home.
After comparing the bullets found in
Cunningham's body with one fired by
Dr. Leiva's assailant and embedded in
a wall of the legation, LIEUT.. John H.
Fowler, police ballistics expert, declared
the same gun was used in both crimes.
The police believe Cunningham was
slain because he knew too much" about
the liquor robbery.

biked up forward during the night and
entered the town, which he found in

Recognized Germans.
That was easy to recognize by the
shapes of the helmets of the troops he
found there. It must have been GU
rious feeling that came over him, the
division intelligence having been toe
optimistic. That town was certainly
no fit place for an American colonel
even of a happy disposition. So back
to the South he scurried. but not before
the Germans had discovered that the
motor bikeman was wearing an Ameri-
can or at least British helmet and
moreover, the engine noises were not
exactly the pop-pop Of the "one-lung'
German motor cycle.
At any rate, Happy got back under
hail of musketry fire which should
have deferred him from taking such
chances in the future. But, it didn't
as he experienced a number of similar
exciting incidents.
