ceived their half day of at other times

The Farm Board got into trouble
when its pay roll, which on June 80
was approximately $1,040,000, was cut,
as Of July l to $65o,000. Since the
activities, a reorganization became
necessary, with elimination and con-
solidation of units.
Immediate reduction of pay roll was
imperative, so a Today administrative
furlough was applied from July 3 to IT,
when the workers affected were called
back for two weeks and then put on
indefinite leave.
The workers thus cut out were gen.
orally those not needed in the con-
tracted organization, it was understood,
| the Farm Board officers taking the
stand that since the operations of
that agency are so specialized and
technical that it would not be possible
to carry its full force for the year
by staggering employment.
Adjustment Difficult.
As 1t develops now, because the law
provides that no more than five days
legislative furlough may be required to
be taken by an employe in one month,
one question that arises is whether
those employees who took 10 days last
month are really due five days pay
as it is not possible, because they
have been cut of, to make an adjust
ment in salary received later.
Another problem lies in the fact that
If the board cannot reduce expenses by
administrative furloughs before the leg
islative furioughs are exhausted, and it
is limited to f1ve-day-per-mo legls-
lative furloughs, these would not expire
until January /, holding up savings In
salary until that time.
The Farm Board workers furloughed
on Saturday also would be handicapped
by losing eleventh of their pay
under the McCarl ruling instead OF one
| twelfth prescribed by the economy act.
The Farm Board, at its present size,
already faces an administrative fur-
lough of 80 days and 1t is believed that
II the present working schedule can be
maintained the board will continue
to function without trouble.
Hopes for Reconsideration.
In forwarding the appeal today to
the controller general, President Camp
bell said he was hopeful for reconSid-
Grafton on the basis of some additional
facts marshaled for the benefit Of Nc
Carl.
The Civil Service Commission en-
ployes are facing a 42-day admins
trative furlough, and under plan
already worked out this would run, for
the first half of this year, from four
days for those employees in the $1,560
class, to IS days for those getting $l,740
and over.
This would be knocked in the head
with the five-day week in force at the
commission under the controller gen.
erals decision.
It was said at the commission today,
| that unless help is forthcoming at the
next session of Congress that the fur
lough necessary would approximate a
20 per cent cut for all employees getting
above $l,740.
1t was understood today in connec-
ton with the general administration
of the economy act, that uniform regu-
lations for sick leave to be promulgated
by the President in the next two days
now are being shaped up at the Bureau
Of the Budget.

A Long Memory

Then, too, Bozeman, regaled
with this narrative: A Southern
plantation owner was sitting on
his front piazza and the Angel
Gabriel appeared in a vision:
Colonel, I want Nose"
"Ah, you can't have Nose,
Gabriel" said the colonel, "he'S
the best darky I have on the
place. He's got the best memory.
He never f0rgetS. Pick out some
other hand, but don't take my
MOse!"
The Angel Gabriel disap-
peared from the piazza and
reappeared out in the cotton
patch where Nose was hoeing.
Like eggs?" said Gabriel.
eyes sah," said Nose, with
out even looking up.
Gabriel disappeared and the
civil war came along and was
fought and lost, and 20 years
later Gabriel reappeared on the
plantation and alighted in the
cotton patch where Nose, a lit
tie more bent, a little whittier
around the equator Of his
Uranium, was hoeing.
"HOW?" said Gabriel.
S'Fried!" said MOSe-WithOut
even lifting his eyes from his
work.
Those were Boze Bulger's
stories. You loved him for them.

we dropped off an eastbound
train at Harrisburg to come
from the recent world series,
good old Bozeman going on to
New York. His company from
st. Louis made an ordinarily
tedious trip seem a way-station
hop.
The first time we ever saw
him was in Birmingham, he
covering the Giants and we the
Griffmen in a spring exhibi-
ton. He told two stories you
could never forget and they
concerned the darkie of his be-
loved Alabama.

A slick darky, learning of the

In a bank, telling him that
when he had enough he could
merely write a check and pay
for the lumber.
He did and the check bounced

at which the detected depositor
looked up the slick Intermediary

Despite the fact that his team

the last II played, Manager John.
son was in a confident mood to-
day in regards to the future and
what it may bring.
Every team hits a slump
during the course of season,
and ours has Just come a little
earlier than expected" was the
earnest pilots comment this
morning. 81 thoroughly believe
that we'll snap out of it soon
and get to winning like we were
about two weeks ago."
Looking toward the important
Yankee series which begins here
Thursday, johnson is just as con-
fident that his team will come to
life. In fact, he believes that the
Yanks will be given a real battle
first because all Of his men are
out to gain revenge for losses in
New York recently, and second be-
cause these same Yanks will be
playing on grounds where they
won't be as much "at home" as in
the Yankee Stadium.
"ThOse Yanks, quite like the
AS, play very well on their own
grounds" OpineS johnson. But
it will be different here, chiefly
because our pitchers work with
so much more confidence with
plenty of OutfieId behind them
where short distances prevail in
New York. Yes, sir, McCarthy's
Sluggers will have to hit 'em
far, wide and handsome to
gather those home runs which
defeated us in New York."
johnson hasn't quite decided
how he will rotate his pitchers in
the series. He has intimated
that General Alvin Crowder will
get the assignment in the first en-
counter, Thursday. No doubt
Lloyd Brown will get Fridays
game, Fischer, Saturdays and
Weaver, Sundays.
Batting Drill Tomorrow
The schedule gives the GriffS
two off-days today and tomorrow.
It was Manager Johnson's plan
to allow his gang to rest this
afternoon, but batting practice is
on tap for tomorrow morning.
From the weak manner in
which his team cavorted at the
plate during yesterdays skirmish
with the Boston Red Sox, it
might not be the worst thing in
the world to hold a batting drill
not only tomorrow but every
morning until the punch is found
again. But, no doubt, the lone
session listed will be enough to
put the team on edge for that
now famous important series with
the Yanks, beginning, as said be.

at any rate.
