CONGRESS HELD
'PAN|CKY' ON
ECONOMY
Labor Official, Fighting Pay
Cuts at Hearing. Charges
InduStriaIiStS Favored

Panic stricken by demands for
economy, Congress is being Stan-
peded into a continuation of the
furlough and other provisions OF
the economy act, Edward F. Nc
Grady. of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, told the Senate
Economy Committee today.
In reply to statement by
Senator L. j. Dickinson (R) of
Iowa that persons throughout the
country possessed an envious
hatred of Government employees,
McGrady said:
"YOu are dealing in mob
psychology"
Appearing at the final public
session of the committee, Nc
Grady said that the Government
was allying itself with bankers
and induStrialiSts who are seeking
to bring down general wage levels.
Pay Cuts Outrageous"
E1cGrady warned the committee
that by reduction of wage levels
and purchasing power, the Gov
ernment is becoming more in
volved in the depression and that
prosperity cannot be restored as
long as wages are reduced. He
told the committee that plans for
continuation of wage cuts were
Outrageous"
James H. Winsor, representing
presSmen at the Bureau of En-.
craving and Printing, advocated
repeal of the economy act.
Despite statements to the con.
trary, the District has been vitally
affected by wage reductions and
the general economic crisis. &C.
cordlng to Frank j. Coleman,
secretary OF the Washington Cen
tral Labor Union.
For 5-Day Week.
He said 70 per cent of labor
on public buildings here had been
imported and District business is
suffering regardless of statements
that indicated otherwise,
He advocated institution of the
5-day-Week and remedies for GER
tain injustices of the economy
act in the event that the entire
law is not repealed.
In the face of overwhelming
opposition to their pleas, repre-,
sentatives of Government EN-
cloyes' organizations have voiced
their protests against continu.
ance of the provisions for pay
less furloughs and other drastic
legislation.
Throughout the hearings, mem
bers Of the committee have indi-
Gated clearly that there was no
hope for repeal of the furlough
and have expressed disapproval
of any changes in the law that
would necessitate further expen-
ditures Of public money.

REPEAL To END

The chances for a moist Dis
trict-when and if the Eighteenth
amendment is rep ealed-loom
much brighter today because II
members of the House District
Committee, headed by Represen-
tative Mary T. Norton CD of
New Jersey, voted for the repeal.
Eight of those members voting for
repeal were Democrats.
Mrs. Norton is not at all dis
heartened by the defeat yester-
day. She believes the next Con-
gress will do the repeating, and
she plans to see that the District
gets beer, wine and liquor along
with the rest Of the country.
Representative Wright Patman
of Texas, the only Democrat on
the committee who voted dry yes
terday, said he believes the Ma
tional Capital should be dry. He
said that if the rest of the States
go wet, the people Of the District
should be permitted to vote on
the question.
Mrs. Norton on the other hand
said she is already making plans
to have the Sheppard dry law
pertaining to the District wiped
off the statute books.

POLICEMEN
Some Haven't Been Home for
Several Days, As Double
Duty Is Their Lot

Suppose you were one of the
firemen who was metamorphosed
into a policeman, and your wife
called up and said:
"YOu haven't been home since
Sunday! If you don't hurry
home I'll divorce yOu."
What would 20 do? This par
ticular fireman cussed the "hun-
ger marcherS."
The first "fire-eater" inter-
viewed about his new work said
he didn't feel out of place, because
he was once in the Navy, where
different sailors we're placed on
patrol duty at ports and their
duty was to look after disorderly
gobS.
Another who had been walking
his uptown beat for several hours
WINGED and said his "dogs" were
barking. He also said he was
more afraid of fallen arches than
OF the "marcherS."
Suddenly police car came
screaming around the corner. The
poor fireman's heart skipped a
beat. Something terrible had hap
pened on his beat.
And then-When he got to the
place. he found out that it was
just a short circuit in the buglar
alarm.
Another fireman said that he
never appreciated his job until
he started playing the role of a
"flatfoot."
Hundred of citizens ask the
temporary officers questions
about the marchers, some with
smiles, some out of curiosity, but
very few with sympathy for the
marchers.
There is no doubt. another
fireman said, that all of the fire
men wish the visitors would
leave, since all are doing their
full jobs as firemen besides the
extra duty as officers, and many
of them have not been able to
go to their homes since they
were placed on extra duty.

by school children in restoring

at the Navy Yard today.
More than $500 school children
from Baltimore, the District and
outlying counties of Virginia and
Maryland, attended.
The scene was a colorful one
as school children crowded
aboard the historic frigate and
lined the pier head, where Old
Ironsides had been tied up for
many months.
A bronze plaque commemorat-
ing the contributions of the
nations youth was presented by
students from the George Mason
High School of Alexandria.

were Rear Admiral William A.

DECLARES
Compulsory School Attend
ance Law Endangered, D. C.
Committee Head Says

Representative Mary T. Norton
of New Jersey, chairman of the
House District Committee, today
condemned the local street rail
ways and bus companies for
fighting the Scent car rate estab-
lished for school children by the
last session of Congress.
If the utilities companies sue
ceed in having the measure de-
clared illegal, she said, the ulti-
mate effect will be to defeat the
compulsory school attendance law
passed for the District by Con-
gress in 1925.
Can't Afford 1t
Mrs. Norton explained that par
ents in financial straits who live
long distance from the schools
cannot be blamed for keeping
their children from school if
forced to pay a high carfare for
the children.
She said:
"The merger bill, as passed
by the House Of Representa-
tives, does not deal with the
matter of reduced fares for
school children. The House
was silent in respect to this
matter, because Congress
assumed that the companies
would recognize it's mandate
requiring transportation of
school children at a rate not
in excess of 3 cents. Since
the enactment of the merger
by the House the companies
defied its reduced fare man.
date in the courts Of the
District.
There is no denying the fact
that the local companies are
losing money. The contention,
however, that reduced fares for
school children is responsible
for these financial losses is
ridiculous. The loss in revenue
due to reduced school fares is
insignificant. The losses are
due mainly to the fact that
residents of the District will
not ride the street cars or
buses on short trips.
FAVORS MERGER BILL
"Suggesti0ns have been made
that the transportation COM
panies reduce the fare below
10 cents for short rides, but
the officials disregard the Sug
geStiOnS.
81 have worked hard for the
passage of the merger bill of
the two railway companies. /
