 T ann pointing definite road he declared, in the message, and asked that he be allowed to take it "at, once without even waiting .fonzthe beginning of the next fisc al year"
 Even before his message conld be read to the senate and house, threats and determined dispute were in evidence. House democrat ie leaders arranged to bind their majority in a caucus and get the bill through by next Wednesday. if possible
 The very stability of our gov errIment itself is concerned, and when that is concerned, the benefits of some must be subordinated Sf the needs. Nof all. !" President Roosef welt told Congress. "When great danger has threatened our basic security it is my duty to advise congress of the way to preserve ourselves, and in 50 doing. must be fair not only to the few, but to the many It is iH this spirit that appeal to you," he said.
 He did not specify to what lengths he intended to go in slash ing veterans appropriations and government salaries, if given autht ority, but advisors estimated that a half billion dollars was intended to be saved.
 The measure would require sal- ary reductions taking into aecount> the cost of living and, and be lim- tied to a total cut of fifteen per cent, including the existing salary cut.
 Veterans whose disability is traceable to service origin will be kept on the payrolls. The measure would also give the president full authority to fix the rates of com pensation for all other veterans, now receiving allowances and who are not in the above classification.

Lack of Performance and
Even Bad Faith Are
Charged in Article.

By ScrippS Newspaper Alliance
NEW YORK, Feb. 18-The sys-
tenn of federal employment eX-
changes organized by Secretary Of
Labor William N. Doak is indicted
for lack of performance, waste of
public money, inefficiency, even bad
faith in an article in the Survey
Graphic today.
The article is a digest of facts
collected by the social science re-
search committee of the Univer-
sity of Chicago, and digested by
Ruth M. Kellogg.
The Doak plan was announced
after President Herbert Hoover's
veto of the Wagner employment ex-
change bill in 1881.
The article points out that the
public was led to expect an effective
and much-needed effort to Or
ganize the labor market and pro-
vide an effective clearing house for
workers and jobs.
Instead, Miss Kellogg says, loca-
ton of federal Offices has been de-
terlnined by political eXpediency, not
by need: Politics rather than fit

ness for the job has determined the
selection of staff.
I'm a southern state" Miss KEEL
logg writes, I was told of a man
converted to the Republican party
overnight in order to qualify him
as state director in the federal
employment service. One woman
lost her job and another was APP
pointed in her stead because the
former was known not to vote
right Staff members in some Of
fees were instructed for whom to
work in the prediction campaign
and for whom to vote"
Miss Kellogg questions the claim
of Secretary Doak that more than
two million persons were given jobs
in 1882 through his agencies, and
she quotes figures from different
offices to support her position. She
concludes:
THE Doak plan has served not
only to make clear the points at
which its administration falls
short, but the weakness of the plan
itself.

Raft issued a statement later con-

By Times Special
GREENCASTLE, Ird., Feb. ia
research grant Of $500 mas been
awarded to Professor Francis NJ
Vreeland, professor of sociology at
De Paw university, for commun-
ity study of New Harmony Ind.
Purpose of this study is to gauge

OF the unique heritage of this little
town on its present-day life.
The grant came from the Elm
hurst committee on social research,

through 1925 and 1927 under Robert
Owen.
The survey under Professor Vree-
land will include an analysis of the
community's accomplishments up to
the present time and an interpreta-
ton of its characteristic community
consciousness.
Some of the finest books written
on the New Harmony experiments
were the work of De Paw
alumnus, the late George B. Lock-
wood, Well-knoWn Muncie publisher,
graduate of De Paw class of 1894.
Professor Vreeland will attempt to
discover the nature and value of
community's traditions and the

RIO GRANDE SHIFTS
OWNERSHIP OF LAND
Changes in Streams Course Help
United States, Then Mexico.

BIZ Times Special
MEXICO CITY, Feb. 18-Almost
unprecedented floods in the Rio
Grande curing the last season have
made necessary another survey of
the course Of that cratic interna-
tional boundary stream.
Every time the river gets out of it's
legalZed banks it transfers more or
less territory from one country to
the other, and it is the duty of the
international boundary commission
carefully to investigate and deter
mine to which country these accre-
tons belong.
The treaty between the United
States and Mexico provides that any
body of land up to 247 acres, trans
ferred by the river changing its
bed, becomes a part Of the domain
to the country to which it has been
delivered.
Several instances of changes in
nationality Of acreages at various
points in the Rio Grande, have oc-
CURED during floods in times past.
During the last twenty years the
United States has gained from Mex
ice approximately 5000 acres, and
there have been transferred to Mex
leo about 1000 acres by changes in
the course of the river.

CPECIAL AGENT ia, of the
- United States bureau of in
vestigation, was in a disconsolate
mood as he watched the tropic
liner, Western World, warp into
her Hudson river pier in April,
1923.
His assignment was one Of the
most difficult he had received IN
years. This was a case If murder
on the high seas, often impossible
to solve, because Of the clannish-
ness Of sailors.
They had their own customs,
their own laws. The whole crew
was guilty until proved innocent.
The cable from Rio de Janeiro
told little.
Bernard Suarez, 20, killed
aboard liner Western World two
days out of Rio" the cable said.
Grew refuses to talk"
He went aboard the ship as soon
as she locked, identifying himself
to the customs men and imme-
diately disappearing among the
crew.
Below decks he waited until the
rush of unloading had abated,
listening to the crews gossip in
several languages-J-4 Was a lin
guist-and trying to pick up some
information that might be Of
value.
He was satisfied, during those
first hours in the liners hold, that
his identity emained unknown.
Life is ordinarily as safe aboard
ship as on Broadway, but the fact
remained that one murder had
been committed there. Another
was not impossible. The crew lived
in world apart from the pas
sengers.
When things had quoted down,
but before the men began going on
shore leave, he sought the chief
engineer. Identifying himself, the
agent was taken to his quarters.
What happened to this man
Suarez?" ia asked.

IA was known to his superiors
~ for the succinctness of his re-
ports and to his friends for his
lack of loquacity. But now, even
though he was nicknamed Silent

He was stabbed to DEATH" the
engineer replied.
Where's his body?"
Buried at sea-"
ANY suspicion who did it?"
Yes, but can't prove it,"
This colloquy led into a descrip-
ton of the discovery of the crime.
Bernard was a utility man"

The Spaniard shook his head.
We'll" ia said softly, neither
do I. What do you know about
the murder of Bernard Suarez?"
Il don't know anything" replied
the Spaniard.
Further than that, he would not
speak.
ia left him, after taking the
precaution of suggesting that Sam
be kept aboard ship for a day or
two, went ashore.
He communicated with the po-
lice and a routine search for Bel
dana was instituted. Harlem de-
tectives also offered him some in
teresting information - Beldana
and Suarez had been admirers of
the same girl when the Western
World was previously in New
York.
IA tried in vain to locate the
girl. Early the next morning,
however, he learned that Beldana
had been taken off a coastal vessel
by the marine police, who were
holding him for questioning.
TINE agent interviewed him,
Il but without result. No, he
had not killed Suarez. No, he had
not argued with him. Yes, he had
seen him aboard the ship.
