Employees Affected.
RESTORATION OF IS PCT.
PROVIDED IN GLASS BILL
Many of Those Coming Under
Ruling Are Residents of
Washington.

The Is per cent pay cut which went
into effect throughout the Government
service April l. under authority of the
economy act, has been lifted from
several groups of Government workers,
including officials and employees of the
Federal Reserve Board, parts of the
office of the controller of the currency
ana the conservators and all their en-
ployes in the closed banks of this CITY
and the Nation.
This restoration of the Is per cent
was authorized by the Glass banking
bill. While restored at the last pay
day, information concerning this action
was not disclosed until last night, when
1t first became public. There were
definite efforts to suppress the infoima-
ton, for fear it might have a bad effect
on the persons who had their pay in
creased back to normal, or might result
in restoration of the paw cut. But i'll
official quarters the elimination of the
pay cut was confirmed
Many Located in d. C.
How many persons are concerned in
the various groups could not be es-
tlmated definitely, but it was believed
to run up to several hundred. many of
whom are located here in Washington.
This change in the pay of these en-
ployeS whose pay comes from banks is
one Of several changes which sets these
people apart from most of the rest Of
the Government service
During the Hoover administration
the economy act exempted the groups
of employees whose income came from
banks, directly or indirectly and Con-
troller General McCarl so held
When the Democratic economy bill
wsnt into effect on April /, however,
with its Is per cent general cut
throughout the Government service,
all of the people who had been ex-
empted were subjected to the new IS
per cent cut. even the conservators Of
banks and their employees.
Work Is Still Heavy.
But the Glass bank bill contains
provisions which have been interpreted
as exempting certain employees from
the cut, so their salaries have been
returned to normal
Due to the bank difficulties. includ-
ing the bank holiday. and efforts since
to reopen the unlicensed banks through
out the Nation, the officials and en-
ployes who have had Is per cent put
back into their pay envelopes have put
in arduous and strenuous work. Espe-
cially during the bank holiday did they
work overtime, late into the night,
sometimes all night long.
The work of the Federal Reserve
Board and the controllers Office is
still heavier than it was before the
bank holiday.

Constituents of those congressman who voted
s250oOoO for citizens military training camps next
summer, in The war department appropriation BILL
will have good reason to laugh when economy is
mentioned in future appeals for reelection
If there is any activity of the federal government
which well could be dispensed with in hard times
this is it. These summer camps at government ex-
pense for boys selected by their congressman, have
little no military value and high officials of the
army so have admitted. Their political value is
of course, different thing.
President Hoover recognized this fact when he
recommended that the appropriation for 1884 be
drastically cut, and only $1OOOOOO allowed. With
even greater courage and regard for duty the house
appropriations committee recommended that the
camps be eliminated altogether. The house has over
ridden both objections and provided $250OOoo for
free vacations.
If this money were being spent by the government
to feed for month, residents of the different con-
gressonal districts who would have little or nothing
to eat otherwise during that period the expenditure
might be justified.
1t is very probable, however, that candidates will
be chosen either for their theoretical value to ma
tonal defense-and that surely requires a strong
well-nourished bodyor else for their potential value
to the recommending congressman the next time he
runs for office.
Taxpayers who will provide the money for these
camps, and hungry Americans whose needs certainly
should command any money the government can
find to spend, alike will be justified in feeling that
the lame duck house of representatives has treated
them badly

We Face q Theory

DUT now these theories of trade
D and banking and currency are
matters of life and death to every
one of us. Four years ago Tech
nocracy never would have made
the first page. AS a matter OF
fact, from present indications it
is about to take it's departure for
some more obscure spot inside.
And yet the furry of attention
which it got and deserved shows
that at least part of the public
is intent upon listening to men
who attempt an appraisal OF
fundamentals, whether their con-
illusions are solid or marred here
and there.
If we are to go on living and
planning from day to day depend
upon it that tomorrow will be
precisely like the twenty -four
hours which preceded, and so on
and so on.
We can not face simple and i'm
mediate conditions. We must look
ahead and weigh all the available
theories. In other words, the year
1893 can be a period Of betterment
only if we begin here and now to
plan for 1943.

KEEPING THE SCHOOLS

The proposal that the state pay the minimum
wage of every teacher in the state calls attention
to the fact that there are many districts and 10
calities which are no longer able to pay for the
maintenance of schools.
No longer will the tax receipts stretch far enough
to provide for education Farming localities, once
prosperous, can not pay. In the mining regions,
children must grow into manhood and womanhood
nliterate unless some drastic change is made in
the method of raising money.
There will be general approval of the declaration
of Governor McNutt that the children shall not be
neglected and that the deaton shall not hit at the
rights of the boys and girls to education or the
start toward an education.
But what is happening to the schools will soon
happen to other agencies of government unless men
are given and prices of commodities, especially
farm commodities, are increased.
Some cities will short of money to pay police
men and frefnen andsfhe garbage collector. Hos
pitfalls may be closed.~The health departments will
suffer.
The proposed sales tax to raise the revenues for
the schools is much more likely to add to the diff
culties encountered by the districts which face
the abolition of schools unless the state to
the rescue. That will decrease the buying power
of the consumer of the products of farm and mine.

Facing Facts

Yet it is far from enough that
the condition should be recog-
nized. This is assuredly the time
for theorists. And that the world
is not ready to admit. Many still
believe in the muddle-t through
philosophy.
I do not even deny the possibil-
ity that the world may stagger out
of many of it's difficulties through
blind luck and inertia. 1t is not
even impossible that within five
years we might again see so-called
boom times and the skyrocketing
of stocks.
And that, think, would be the
final piece of telling testimony
against the folly of our organiza-
ton. 1t would be the crowning
piece of evidence that we live in
a mad world which has no mech
anism to assure stability and free
dom from fear.
Once upon time economics was
an academic subject reserved al:
most entirely for college profess
sors and their occasional pupils.
Nobody paid much attention to the
tariff, because it was heard of only
every four years in campaign

THE WAR ON HUNGER

A hunger relief bill has been voted out of COM
rnittee and is before the United States senate for
action in the short session. Combining the Costi-
qan-La Toilette and Cutting bills it is lifeline for
100000 destitute families and 100000 homeless
youths
The revised bill separates hunger relief from
business and public works loans. A separate board
of three including an expert social worker, would
administer outright grants to the states. OF the
900 set aside for the next two years $1500O
900 is earmarked for transient care These sums are
needed desperately.
The country is spending 81 0OOOOOOO0 year now
on relief More. than a third of the unemployed are
on charity. But every report proves that the states
and communities are about at the end of their re-
sources
Private charities and local public funds are de-
pleted We have reached the third phase OF the
relief campaign-federal aid.
At the senate committee hearings two-score re-
lief workers from many states testified. They had
come from the firing line Practically all of them
said that the fight against hunger is going against
them Practically all urged quick and ample fed
eral grants
