Friday, April 20, DR.. Hutchin-
son and Mr.. Nelson of the state de-
partment of agriculture came to
Kennewick high school. DR.. Hutch
inson gave very interesting talk
on the value of cows milk n d
yolk of egg as foods.
He told about the valuable SUI
gar in milk which forms. Tactic
acid in the body. Milk does not
form any harmful fats in the body,
but only the useful, easily absorb
ed fat tissues.
DR.. Hutchinson said that from
early times the general belief has
been that milk was very valuable
and these old beliefs, are general
ly substantiated now by scientific

Touchet 10 to 4. For a time in the
early innings Kennewick led a to

besides pitching a great game, got
the longest hit of the day, a hard
triple to left field. Great hitting by
Kennewick was the feature of the
game. Kennewick seemed to have
plenty of punch at the plate.

NOMINATIONS
LYLE Brown. Robert

Lyle Brown, Robert Brown
Don Duffy and John Vibber were
nominated for A. S. B. president
for the coming year, at our A. S.
B. meeting April 26.
This office is of high Importance
in the functions of the school in
connection with the student ac-
tivities. The president is, of course,
presiding officer at all A. S. B.
meetings. Also he presides over
the Student Council, which was
formerly called the Board of Con-
troll, and he must oversee the way
the money is collected at Student
body activities, such as football,
basketball, games. These are the
main duties, but many minor du-
ties also make constant demands.
The student body has shown
sound judgment in it's nomination
for there is not one boy of the
four who would not be able to
hold the office successfully and
capably. The elections will be
held this week.

demand for currency is steadily decreasing
while the public need of it is steadily in
creasing. More currency is theoretically in
circulation now than in 1929 because the
fall in commodity prices has increased the
dollars value. In other words, a dollar buys
much more now than in 1929 Accordingly,
those who have dollars need fewer Of them
to purchase necessities. The money theo-
reticaly in circulation, however, is not all
actually in public circulation. It is practi-
cally boarded beyond public reach because
credit is restricted. The banks, fearing
runs, cut down on credit. Inevitably, of
course, some of the money this kept from the
public gravitated back to the federal reserve
The federal reserve system, established to
stabalize national finances, became a gigan-
tic hoarder.
Now the federal reserve board is trying
to break the vicious circle It is trying to con
tribute to the thawing of credit by releasing
some of it's supply of currency.

noticeable proportion and that will help a
great deal

make Kennewick too attractive. We can't
make it too clean and appealing.

even improve the morale of the city,

N CARL 5 STAND
NECESS|TATES
CHANGE
Thomas E. Campbell Says He
Hopes FurIough Ruling Will
Be Modified

The Civil Service Commits
sion will forsake the five-day
week plan which it adopted
two weeks ago, if Comptroller
General J. R. McCarl retains
his stand that legislative and
administrative leave cannot be
taken concurrently.
This was announced today by
Thomas E. Campbell, president Of
the commission, who said he
still hoped" McCarl would
modify his ruling and permit his
office, and any others which must
also grant indefinite administra
tive furlough, to put such fur
Tough into effect now, with part
of the deduction being applied
on legislative and part on ad
ministrative furlough.
Basis for Discrimination
Even if the concurrent fur
Tough is permitted. and his and
other offices on q five-day week
basis now must continue to de-
duct one-eleventh instead of one
twelfth from employees pay, this
discrimination will also cause him
to abandon the five-day week
plan, he indicated.
A QUESTIONABLE was circulated
today among the commission en-
ployes, asking if they favored re-
tention Of the five-day week or
the former plan. Results are
now being tabulated for study of
the commissioners.
The attitude of the National
Advisory Committee on Aeronau-
tics, which also put its employees,
all per annum, on a five-day
basis, Is still that of "watchful
waiting" with some indications
it also will give up the plan If
the larger salary reduction re-
mains enforced.
The Labor Department, how
ever, which is trying to set
national example in the short
week for private industry. is not
expected to return to the five
and one-half day basis.
McCarls final ruling on the
matter. which his close associates
feel will bear out his others, is
now slated for Tuesday.
Pay for Quarters
The Comptroller General today
ruled that civilian employees OF
the War Department, and others
getting subsistence and quarters
as part of their pay, must pay
for such quarters if furloughed.
If given an administrative fur.
Tough, they must pay the Govern
ment in cash the full rental
value of their quarters, plus other
allowances: if it is legislative
furloGgh, they must pay 81 %
per cent of the value, having
already suffered an 8 1-3 per cent
cut in their pay checks.
Meanwhile, there was talk to-
day on Capitol Hill about pos
sible repeal of some provisions of
the economy act as soon as Con-
greSs reconvenes in the fall, with
a straight 10 per cent pay cut
being substituted for the furlough
plan.

?. j. {. REPLIES
To BUS SUIT

Dismissal of the suit of five
interstate bus lines for an injunc-
ton to prevent the Public Utili-
ties Commission from putting
into effect an order depriving
them of the use of curb stands
Is asked in an answer filed yes
:erGay m District Supreme Court
by William A. Roberts, counsel
for the commission.
The answer AYERS that the
court is without right to prevent
prosecutions of violations of valid
laws; that the bill of complaint
was tardy in that it was not
filed until the last moment be-
fore time for the commissions
order to go into effect, and that
a hearing was granted before
the adoption of the order.
Justice James M. Proctor took
the motion under advisement.
The suit of the bus lines asks
the court for an injunction to
prevent the commission from
forcing them to abandon curb
service on the north side of New
York Avenue between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth Streets North
west.

URGEDFOR "a
Times Staff Photo

A recommendation that a
budget of approximately $4,000.
900 be adopted for the Districts
1884 fiscal year will be made by
the District economy committee
to the Commissioners.
After a month of interviewing
various departments heads, the
committee acting on a rigid
economy policy effected slashes
totaling approximately $7,000,000
from the estimates submitted by
the department heads.
These estimates. it was learned,
totaled $47,200.OOO, which COM
pares with a total of $4,000, 900
submitted by the departments
last year.
District Auditor Daniel j. Don
ovan, chairman of the economy
committee, today declined to dis
cuss the work accomplished by
the committee. He said he is
now preparing a report for the
Commissioners, to be submitted
within the next few days. After
studying the report, the Commits
sioners probably will make it pub
lie.
With the drastic cuts adopted
by the committee in considera-
tion of the estimates. it is likely
that the Commissioners will do
little cutting when they begin
final consideration af the budget
before sending their recommen-
dations to the Bureau of the
Budget.
