Strict immigration laws to prevent

.EBLE FEARS CUTS
IN CUSTOMS FORCE
Sees Aid for Rum VioIators
in Reducing Pay Roll
by LOO.

A 10 per cent cut in funds for the
Customs Bureau not only would necessi-
tate the dropping Of one-ninth Of the
personnel, but would also give relief to
bootleggers, rum runners, racketeers and
every other class of law breakers" Com
missioner F. x. A. Eble today informed
Congress.
Eble's views, contained in a letter to
Chairman Oddie, Republican, Nevada
of the Appropriations Subcommittee
charged with slashing one-tenth from
the 81 ,059 900 900 Treasury Post Office
supply bill, we're put into the Senate
record by Oddie.
Favors Furlough Plan.
The curtailed funds, Eble said, would
bring the appropriation IS per cent
below those for the current fiscal year
very dangerous situation" He said ap-
proximately LOO employees would have
to be dismissed out of 9,272.
Eble voiced agreement with the fur
Tough plan suggested by President
Hoover, but said many difficulties would
be encountered even with this plan
He added:
The prevention of the smuggling oi
liqucr, narcotics and other contrabane
has added tremendously to the work oi
the organization, with the consequent
necessity of assigning almost one-f1ftt
of the entire force to this work alone.
Foresees Grave Danger.
Notwithstanding this fact, the pro.
posed reduction will compel us to reduce
our organization to the extent of 14(
employees below 1911.
IF this general cut of 10 per cent /.
made. it will most certainly give reliel
to bootleggers, rum runners, racketeer.

Retrenchment Plan
to Prevent Naming of
New U. S. Appointees

The proposed Government re-
trenchment measures virtually
will act as a fiat prohibition
against any new appointments to
Federal posts under civil service
after July l. Thomas E. Camp
bell, president of the Civil Serv-
ice Commission, said today.
Where vacancies that must be
filled arise, this will be accom-
plished by transfers within the
service. wherever possible, in
order to afford maximum protec-
ton to personnel already en-
ployed who face loss of jobs,
rather than bringing in new
workers.
The effect of this will be that
thousands of applicants for Civil
Service places who took exami-
nations during the past year and
we're placed on eligibility regis
lers will not be called upon.
Among these are, roughly,
$4,000 stenographers and typists
who qualified in a recent exami-
nation undertaken by some So, 500
men and women and about 1000
craftsmen from a list of $4,000

ECONOMY MAY AFFECT
POST OFFICE BUILDING
Steel May Be Substituted for
Bronze Owing to Difference
in Cost

Although bronze window frames
have been specified by the architects
for the new Post Office Department
Building, at Twelfth street and Penn
sylvania avenue, to cost considerably
more than steel or wood frames, it was
explained today by Mai Ferry K.
Heath, Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury, that, because of the Federal
economy program, some change may be
made.
Maj Heath explained the architects,
Denalo & Aldrich of New York, claim
the bronze would cost $3.50 900 to $780,
600 more than steel, but over a period
of time would save that additional cost
by not having to be painted.
1t is a policy Of the Treasury not to
specify bronze in specifications without
an alternate. Maj. Heath said, so bids
are being asked on steel frames.
Maj Heath indicated in the final
analysis bronze may be thrown out
altogether, and steel used instead.
