Preparations" Intended to
Meet Economy Act

The Civil Service Commits
sion today announced it would
regard as invalid the separa-
tiOn of husbands and wives to
evade the Economy act.
The act provides that when
married couples are both in
Federal employ one of them
must be among the first dis
charged in the event Of per-
sonnel reductions.
Such separations will not re
move restrictions of Section 213
of the Economy act, the Commits
sion stated. The act provides:
I'm any reduction of person
mel in any branch or service of
the United States or District of
Columbia, married persons (liv-
ing with husband or wife) en-
plOyed in the class to be re-
duced, shall be dismissed before
any other persons employed in
such class are dismissed, if
such husband or wife is also in
the service of the United States
or District of Columbia"
The Commission cited the spe'
cific case of husband who left
Government service last April
His wife is employed in the De
partment of Agriculture.
He was separated from his
wife in August and has since ap-
piled for employment as an at
tendant at st. Elizabeth's Hos,
pital.
Although he and his wife are
living at different addresses, the
commission held that the separa-
ton appeared to be for the pur.
pose of evading the economy act
and would not be regarded as
valid. ~
According to the commission,
it has always regarded as invalid
separations which are brought
about to evade the section which
holds that two members of a
family shall not be eligible for
appointment to the same grade
in service.

Commission.
There are 75O stands in the vari-
Gus sections of the city now, but
it is expected that representatives
of the cab companies will make a.
determined fight to double the
number of stands at the hearing.
A provision in the new license
law placing jurisdiction of cab
stand locations in the joint board
of the utilities commission and the
District Commissioners made the
hearing necessary. Previously the
police department, subject to ap-
proval by the Commissioners, had
this jurisdiction. The joint board
will take up the question after

NEUTRAL
IN NATIONAL
CAMPAIGN
Stumped by Big Party PIanks,
Prohibition Groups Plan
Fight for Congress

The major dry organizations
of the nation today had de-
clared their neutrality in the
presidential election.
With no candidate of a major
party to support for the first
time since the Eighteenth
Amendment was adopted, the
dry bodies will concentrate on
the election of a dry Congress.
This policy was proclaimed by
the executive committee of the
board of strategy of 80 dry
organizations at midnight last
night after the recent develop
ments on the political checker
board had been discussed. Earlier
the executive committee of the
Anti-Saloon League of America
adopted the same policy.
Third Party Plan Fails
All proposals for the forma-
ton of third political party
were brushed aside. The dry
leaders apparently were convinced
they could not persuade an out
standing figure, such as Senator
William E. Borah of Idaho or
Gov. Clifford Pinchot of PennSyl-
vania, to head such a movement.
They declined to indorse William
Upshaw, of Georgia, candidate of
the Prohibition party.
The dry ranks, ever since the
Republican reSubmission plank
was adopted and the Democrats
came out openly for repeal, have
been "all dressed up and no place
to co." AS a result there have
been numerous cleavageS in the
dry ranks, certain organizations
deciding to go along with Hoover
and Curtis and others Withdraw
ing from the battle.

True Wilson announced that he
would support Norman Thomas,

forms are unsatisfactory and an

gress dry. shifting its energies
to the congresSionl battles rather
