| years ago, many Oh the SO ana SOS
were treated with purifying treat
ment before the words were uttered.
The Front Page" is a tough Job
for any Little or Civic Theater to
undertake. This play calls for a
lot of business and above all it calls
for types.
In the first act, Hale MacKeen.
the director has done pretty well
with the newspaper types as to &C
tons but not conversation or bust
ness" of acting.
His grouping Of reporters is well
done but MacKeen has not speeded
the action of conversation to meet
the action of business.
The second act near it's climax
gets fire and dramatic sweep when
Walter Jackson enters as Walter
Burns. Then things begin to hap
pen and the play takes on real &C
ton
The same is true when jayne
Hoffman as Mollie Malloy, the con-
vict's sweetheart, arrives on the
scene. The same is true when Nor
man Buchan as Sheriff Hartman
really gets going. In the first act
last night, Buchan was not SO con-
vincing but when he got his hat off,
he started to make good and con-
vincing theater.

NEW JOBS FREE
FROM PAY GUT

Comptroller General j. R. NC
Carl ruled today that the Federal
Emergency Administration Tor
Public Works is exempt from the
IS per cent economy slash In the
salaries of its officers and en-
ployes.
The Comptroller General said
there is no basic compensation 70
which to apply the is per cent
reduction, and consequently the
IS per cent cut does not apply.
Another ruling informed the
Postmaster General that the sal
arv of an assistant postmaster
could be reduced through a de-
motion in the interest of dlsclp-
line. without necessity for PreSl-
Dental approval.
A third ruling holds that an
accountant at the Federal Trace
Commission whose duties and re-
sponsibilities were changed re-
Gently and who was accordingly
increased from $4,000 to $4,000
a wear, must revert to the lower
alary, since administrative pro-
motions are prohibited under the
economy act.

Presentation to the President of
the problem of the Federal con-
tribution to District revenues
should be made by the next Dis
trict Commissioners, Senator FL
mer Thomas CD of Oklahoma,
chairman of the District suo-
committee of the Senate Appro-
priationS Committee, declared to-
day.
Acting as a delegation repre-
senting the District, the Commis-
sioners should call at the White
House and place the problem be
fore the Chief Executive, Thomas
said.
Willing To Help
The subcommittee chairman
said that he would be willing to
cooperate in the arrangement of
a plan whereby the Government
should contribute certain per-
centage of the funds needed for
operation Of the city government
Thomas said:
II believe that definite per-
centage of the District funds
should be paid by the Federal
Government. That percentage
should be fixed and each year,
when necessary expenditures
were determined, the govern.
ment should be called upon to
pay its equitable share.
THE TWO VIEWS
Some contend that the Dis
trict should pay its own ex-
penSeS of government. I do not
agree. 1t is the National Cap
Ital, occupied by government

FINE Of $1,000

Victor Quander, 81, colored,
1900 block Second Street North
west, today was sentenced in Po-
lice Court to pay a fine of $1,000
or serve so days in Jail on two
charges growing out of liquor law
violations last night.
Quander was arrested the first
time and charged with transport
ing, possession, driving on dead
licenses and having no registra-
ton card. His automobile was
seized and he was released under
$500 bond.
A few hours later members of
the vice squad arrested Quander,
who was charged with transport
ing and possessing 100 quarts of
liquor, speeding and passing a
stop sign. That automobile also
was seized.

CIVIL SERVICE
SETUP SNUBS
POLITICIANS
ReaIignment, Combining Two
Chief Posts in One, Held
Best in Long Run
BY DUNCAN FORSYTH

Harry B. Mitchell, president Of
the Civil Service Commission, an
nounced today that when reor-
ganization of that agency is COM
pleted, it will be recognized that
it was accomplished in the best
interests of the service, and that
politics played no part in it.
Two vital changes in the Set-up
of the commission are being made
in the ousting of DR.. H. A. Edison,
chief examiner, and E. Claude
Babcock, secretary. The offices
will be combined under the title
chief examiner, and a new ap-
pointee will be chosen to fill that
post.
Babcock, it is understood, will
become district manager at San
Francisco for the commission, at
a reduced salary. Edison has not
been placed as yet.
Result of Survey
The changes were made, ac-
cording to Mr.. Mitchell, on the
recommendation of the Brookings
Institute, which recently con-
Quoted a survey of the commits
sion. The findings recommended
that the offices of chief examiner
the principal technical officer
and secretary, the chief executive
officer, be combined under one
person.
They recalled that only few
weeks ago Senator Nicely CD of
West Virginia introduced a bill
which would have taken all $4,000
jobs, or better, out of the Civil
Service. When it was pointed out
that this would have the effect Of,
putting the important technical
jobs of the Civil Service Commis-

Up NEXT WEEK

Postmaster General James A.
Farley will confer with President
Roosevelt early next week on the
appointment of two civilian Dis
trict Commissioners. He will also
take up appointment of a Public
Printer.
He indicated bis desire to have
the appointments made as soon
as possible, saying:
'T thought the question Of
the District Commissioners was
all settled. But I guess 1t will
be SOOn."
A list of six persons, recon-
mended some time ago by the
Postmaster General, still stands
for Farley's choice, he said. He
stated that the President may
have other persons under consid-
Grafton, but if he has, Farley said,
he knows nothing about them.
He said he will not have an
opportunity to talk to the Presi-
dent on this question before next
week.

SUNDAYvEND|NG
ASESOPENED

The District Commissioners to-
day ordered Corporation Counsel
william W. Bride tovproceed with
prosecution of several cases in
volving Sunday sales by street
vendors.
The cases, filed some time ago.
have been delayed on request OF
counsel for the vendors who
wished to defer action until ap-
pointment of the new Commits
Sioners.
The present board adopted the
regulation forbidding Sunday
vending of ice cream and other
articles but it was felt the in
coming board might change the
regulation. The Commissioners,
however, have ordered that no
further postponement be granted.

BUILDING SBODY
TOFEEL Ak

Members of the Public Build
ings Commission may hope to
save it from oblivion under Presi-
dent Roosevelt's reorganization
plan by proving it an advisory
rather than an administrative Or
ganization, but so far as the De-
partment of the Interior, to
which it has been relegated, is
concerned, it's doom as an inde-
pendent office is sealed.
This was revealed today by A.
E. Demaray, new associate direc-
tor Of the National Park Service
which is undergoing reorganiza-
tion in order to emerge August 10
as the National Buildings, Parks
and Monuments Commission.
Under present plans the Build
ingS Commission is to be reduced
to the status of division of space
allotment in depart m e n t
handling all Federal buildings in
the country.
The present function Of the
Public Buildings Commission, Mr..
Demaray points out, is chiefly
that of allotting space in public
buildings here.
The present executive secretary,
H. A. Candland, will probably be
retained to head the division be-
cause of his wide experience. and

To PROBE
CARPENTERS
WAGE FIGHT
Baltimore Firm Charged With
Violating Law on School
Contract for D. C..

A public hearing will be held,
probably within week, on
charges Of wage law violations
on a school being constructed
here by the Catalano Construc-
ton Company, Of Baltimore.
This was revealed today by DR..
Luther H. Reichelderfer, president
Of the Board of District Commits
sioners, who said the Commission
ers had accepted the recon-
mendation of Corporation Coun-
sci William w. Bride that the
hearing be held.
Baker Makes Probe
In the meantime, Harold w.
Baker, superintendent of con-
Struction, is investigating reports
Of inferior work on the school
building. To date, he said, he
has found no evidence that the
work is not up to standard.
The investigation of the wage
dispute grew out of the COM
plant of John Thomas, of Ber-
wyn, Md, that he had been hired
as a carpenter on the work and
paid only so cents per hour in
stead of the prevailing wage" of
81 per hour.
Paid Even Less
Thomas charged that other car
penters on the job are being
paid only so and 60 cents per
hour and are being required to
sign statements to the effect that
they are receiving the legal wage
OF 81. Upon refusal to sign the
statements they are dismissed, he
charged.
AS an outgrowth of the affair.
1t appeared probable that Con-
greSs will be asked to pass a law
providing fine and imprisonment
Tor contractors who violate the
provision of the Bacon-Davis Act
which requires payment of the
prevailing wage scale on public
works.

Keplinger informed the court
he and his wife, Mrs. Kathryn

the marriage, he charged, she

they separated. A reconciliation
followed, but they again parted.

HAMILTON SETS
POLICY FOR
OPENING
Those Who Do Not Take Up
New Accounts Can Get Cash,
New Plan Guarantees

Depositors of eight restricted
local banks forming the new
Hamilton National Bank, who
elect not to start accounts with
the new institution, will be able
to get half of their deposits from
their own banks on the same day
that the new one opens, it was
learned today.
The choice is outlined in let
ters which are to be sent to
each depositor by conservatorS OF
the restricted banks. While the
form and general contents of the
letters of instruction have been
approved by Treasury officials the
forms have not yet been printed.
Letters Held Up
The letters are being carefully
studied today by conServatorS,
some of whom may wish changes
to be made to better meet their
own situations.
In the next few days, the ap-
proximately $4,000 depositors will
receive bulky pieces of mail con-
tanning, in addition to the letter
of general instruction, blank forms
for proof of claims, letters for
depositors' signatures to conserva-
tors of their banks and to Off
cials of the new bank.
These latter outline in detail
just how the depositor elects to
have his accounts handled.
Has Choice
They will either authorize the
conservator to deliver to the
Hamilton to the depositor's credit
in either savings or checking &C
counts, or both, so per cent Of his
deposit, or, if the depositor does
not wish payment transferred to
the new bank, he may obtain from
the conservator his share of the
sums distributed on the same day
that the new bank opens.

BUS LINES GAIN
FARE HEARING

The Public Utilities Commission
today is holding a hearing on the
request of two bus lines connect
ing with nearby Virginia to con-
duct an intra-District business.
DR.. j. H. Parmalee, president Of
the Arlington and Fairfax Motor
Transportation Company, and r.
L. May, owners of the Alexandria
Bancroft and Washington Bus
Line, are seeking the right to take
on passengers between their term
inal at Tenth and D Streets
Northwest, and Highway Bridge.
The commission recently or.
dered discontinuance of this prac-
tice, holding that the scent fare
charged by the bus line provided
unfair competition for local street
cars. Parmalee said today he
would leave the fixing Of the fare
to the commission.
Employees of the loans and cur
rency division of the Treasury De-
partment, Fourteenth and D
Streets Southwest, and of the
Liberty Loan annex, Fourteenth
and B Streets Southwest, appeared
on behalf of the companies.
Peoples Counsel Richmond B.
Keech pointed out that the pro-
posal is IAN ideal opportunity" to
test out the recent proposal of the
commission to make a trial of
scent fare on short haulS.
S. R. Bowen, counsel for the
Washington Railway & Electric
Company, opposed the petition as
indefinite and uncertain" but
was overruled and his request for
a continuance was denied.

Hopkins Finds Relief
Need Decreasing
Over Nation

The need for direct relief Is
diminishing throughout the
country.
That is the opinion of Harry
L. Hopkins. Federal Emergency
Relief Administrator, following
a study of reports submitted to
him by staff statisticians.
The decline, undoubtedly cue
to an increase Of employment,
amounts to about 10 per cent,
he estimates. Latest figures
have indicated about 100000
unemployed families and about
100000 unemployed individ-
uals.
