The net result of the McDuffie
economy bill' was a 100000 cut
in the salaries of members of Con-
gress, department heads and other
government officials in the higher
grades. The proposal to CONSOLE
date the army and navy was de-
feated by the votes of the conser.
natives from both parties, and the
salary cut on the lower paid work
ers was defeated by the liberal
members from both parties, for the
reason that the bulk of the more
than S6O0,OO0,O00 cut from the ap-
preparation bills represents cuts
from the pay roll, and the blanket
reduction would have given many
a double dose and brought them
below the distress line.
The Senate is in the midst of the
tax battle. The high income and
inheritance taxes put into the bill
in the House were greatly reduced
by the Senate committee and an at
tempt is being made to put the bur.
den back on the people by means
of taxes on bank checks, postal
rate increases and : other excise
taxes.
After the tax matter is settled
the battle on the farm organization
program, as represented by the Nc
Nary bill, will begin. It seeks to
establish the equalization fee, the
debenture and the allotment plan in
marketing in order to raise prices
of farm products. The recent in
terview given out by Owen D.
Young, noted financier and econo-
mist, in which he approves the
equalization fee as the best meas.
ure for price control of farm pro-
ducts, has attracted great deal OF
notice.
There is another drop in the es-

BALL0U EXPECTS
BIG ENROLMENT
Superintendent of Schools
Returns From Summer
in New England.
Emmett Scott.

DR.. Frank w. Ballou, superintendent
of schools, believes Washington schools
will have the heaviest enrolment in
their history during the coming year.
DR.. Ballou returned to his desk at the
Franklin School Administration Build
ing today after a Summer spent in
teaching at Yale University and va
cationing at his camp at Belgrade
Lake, Me.
Although adhering to his policy Of
never forecasting enrolment figures, DR..
Ballou made his prediction because of
the great number of queries he has re-
ceived from parents whose children are
to enter public school for the first time
this year and those whose children for
merly attended private school.
At Yale, early in the Summer. DR..
Ballou was member of the special
faculty which conducted a seminar on
education for a select group Of school
superintendents and principals from
virtually every section Of the country.
Although limited to 100 students, DR..
Ballou said the seminar drew approx
mately 40 men, others having to with
draw because of retrenchments in their
respective school systems.
Following the close Of the seminar
at Yale, DR.. Ballou joined his family
at their camp in Maine. During the
sojourn there he suffered an unusually
severe attack Of hay fever. and the
Board of Education early this month,
extended his leave.

ing rented cab in violation of the

Sergt. Mason is understood to have
initiated his drive against the opera

have the appearance Of being owned by
a firm which is financially responsible
for damages.
On the contrary, he declared. some
of the companies will not accept any
responsibility for accidents which the
drivers are involved and in addition
escape the workmen's compensation law
because on a carefully-phrased rental
contract they can show the operator
is not an employe. but lessee of the
cab Thus the drivers, under the law,
can be held responsible for damages,
but few if any of them, he said, carry
liability insurance.
Many Of the men who drive the
rented cabs, Roberts said, have been
unable to find any other employment,
bu. their income from the operation of
the cabs is very small. The companies,
on the other hand, he declared make
a good return on their investment.

Period.

The Civil Service Commission an
nounced today that 81 .449 appointments
were made to competitive classified po-
sitions in the Federal civil service dur
ing the year ended last June 80. This
compares with 38,46l during the pre-
ceding year.
This reduction of more than 1900,
it was said. is due primarily to two rea-
sons-the lessening of the number Of
voluntary separations from the Govern
ment service and the Presidents policy
of making only absolutely necessary
appointments
OF the appointments made during the
last fiscal year, $3.50 were appointments
of those entitled to veteran preference,

of its temporary nature, DR.. Hill said
