VE IS To SEEK
RESTORATION
Of ]. 8. PAY
Two Organizations Join With
Clerks in Battle Against
Reduced Salaries
By DUNCAN FORSYTH

Two veterans organizations,
the Veterans of Foreign Wars and
the Disabled American Veterans,
it appeared today, will favor both
restoration Of Federal pay and
restoration of pension payments
to disabled veterans on the scale
existent before the recent econ
omy cuts went into effect.
The veterans groups are inter
eSted in the civil service situation
not only because many veterans
are included in it. but also be-
cause they have special prefer
ence for civil service jobs. Only
few days ago the two organiza-
tions and the American Legion
went to bat" with Federal f.
ficials for preservation of the
jobs of veterans who were threat
ened by the Federal reorganiza-
ton program.
Protection Lost
Ordinarily, veterans in the civil
service are more secure than
other employees since they enjoy
a preference not only in appoint
ment, but in retention of posi-
tons when staff cuts are being
made. Under the reorganization
procedure, however, all employees
are placed in a temporary status,
in which civil service rights are
denied. Hence appointments to
reorganized Government units can
be made practically at the discre-
ton of appointing officers.
Results of the conferences with
Government officials on this point
are said to have been generally
favorable. James E. Van Zandt,
communicative chief of the Vet
Grams of Foreign Wars, has adj
dressed a letter to President
Roosevelt in which he expresses
confidence that restoration Of
Federal pay to basic figures will
receive favorable consideration
from the Administration, and
urges that pension payments to
disabled veterans also be restored.
LEGION is UNPLEDGED
It was learned today that the
Disabled American Veterans
adopts the same attitude, favoriag
restoration both of Federal pay
and of pensions. The American
Legion is not committed to this
program, however.

fraternal societies and clubs and
has been decorated by the Polish

Mr.. Van Norman is known as an
authority on Slavonic subjects and
since he is so widely travelled and
such a keen observer his address
should be of great interest.

DIARIES URGED
To GUT HUGE
PROFITS
Lower Price to Consumers Also
To Be Sought at Next
Session of Congress

Congress will be asked to adopt
legislation giving to producers a
portion of the profits now being
made by Washington milk dis
tributors.
This was predicted today by
Senator Pat McCarran CD of
Nevada, member of the Senate
committee conducting the milk in.
vestigation, which will be resumed
next Monday.
Huge Profits Cited
Senator McCarran pointed out
that the distributors are making
huge profits while the farmers
are losing money on the milk they
produce. He said:
81 think the price of milk
to the consumers here should
also be reduced. 1t is claimed
that the price of milk here is
lower than anywhere else in
the country, for the quality Of
milk sold, but I know different"
The Nevadan said that he does
not mean that all the profits
should be taken away from the
distributors, but that there should
be a balance so that the farmer
may have a fair return on his
product.
The hearing was postponed TO-
day due to the absence from the
city of ElWOod H. Seal, committee
counsel.
BOOtlegging Checked
Seal was believed to have left
the city in order to check up on
activities in connection with the
bootlegging Of milk into Wash
ington, as testified to during the
hearings last Monday.
Testimony given by committee
auditors to the effect that more
than a million gallons of milk or
cream equivalent of milk has been
bootlegged into Washington since
1928 by five independent distribu-
tors proved the basis of the first
definite steps toward direct ac
ton against milk interests here.
Thorough IveStigatiOn
This matter is to be investi-
gated thoroughly by District of.
ficials as is information Seal said
he has obtained to the effect that
money credited on the books of
the Arlington County Farms Dairy
as having gone to Frank S. Davis.
fiscal agent of the dairy, for serv.
ices, actually was expended for
the purchase of some of the I'M
licensed milk.

The name of Sara Teasdale must be

was fortunate in being able to print
the product of her pen in publications
Of large circulation. Probably no other

of her readers there were many who
were well qualified to appreciate her
effort at its best-she was, indeed, q

There was no reason why Miss Teas

Folger Library Marbles.

The beautiful marble bas-reliefs on
the north facade of the Folger
Shakespeare Library, in East Capitol
street, have been completed, and the
work has been approved by the widow
of the donor of the building.
Designed by John Gregory, an
American sculptor of English birth,
the nine panels depict scenes in
Shakespeare's greater plays. In the
series the figures Of Hamlet, King Lear,
Julius Caesar, Portia, Juliet, Falstaff,
and other famous characters sponsored
by the genius Of the bard appear.
A glance is enough to show how
thoroughly the artist has stepped his
mind in the texts he was commissioned
to illustrate. The very manner in
which he has modelled the figures is
Shakespearean. He had a glorious
opportunity in the assignment, and he
has made the most Of it. Presumably.
the work has established his name in
the forefront of his profession.
