j. s. SCHEDULE
CHANGE URGED

Staggering the hours of Fed.
eral employees to improve traffic
conditions here is recommended
by Fred A. Berlin, secretary of
the National Board of Trade, who
has asked the cooperation of en-
ployes' organizations, the Civil
Service Commission and the Dis
trict government, as we'll as the
traction companies.
He suggests that hours be
staggered so that some employees
would report for work as early as
$3.50 and others as late as $50
a. m. The street car lines should
be interested, he said, because
their present facilities are great
ly overtaXed at rush hours.
The plan was adopted during
the influenza epidemic in war
time to prevent undue congestion
on cars. Employees in some Of
ficeS came to work as early as 8
a. m. The only difficulty eX-
perienced in the arrangement
was that business involving Of
fices that were operating on diff
ferent hours sometimes was de-
layed for a considerable time.

INSURANCE LAW
BANS ORDER

A request for dissolution of the
National Retirement Association,
a police and fireman fraternal
beneficial organization, has been
requested of the District Supreme
Court. The request was based
upon an inability to comply with
the Districts insurance laws re-
garding capitalization.
The association was capitalized
for $4,000 and recently was noti-
fled by the municipal insurance
department that the laws govern
ing such organizations required a
capital of 100000. The court
was informed that the associa-
tlon property and effects have
been so far reduced that demands
made against it cannot be met.
The petition was filed by James
A. Flynn, president, trustee and
principal stockholder.

RAIL HEADS PAY
GUT URGED

Joseph B. Eastman, Federal
railroad coordinator, thinks $780,.
900 a year ough: to be enough
for any railroad president, but
the executives, some of whom
have drawn as much as $3.50, 900,
think the maximum should be
100000.
Eastman pointed out that $780,.
900 was the top salary when the
Federal Government was operat-
ing the railroads in war time, but
is willing to leave the question for
the present in the hands of the
railroad executives themselves.
More cuts, however, might come
later, he thought.
Salaries of lesser officials will
be reduced also.

Huria, "Jim's" Right Hand
Hiring Man, Put in Interior
Office by Roosevelt

Has James A. Farley put one
over on Secretary of the Interior
IckeS?
That is the question banded
about in. the Public Works Admin
istration this week, following the
appointment of Emil Hurja, Far
ley's hiring man." as administers
tive assistant to Ickes.
Hurja was appointed, it is un-
derstood, by President Roosevelt
over Ickes' head at the request Of
Farley who is anxious to get
hundreds Of Democrats positions
in the Government.
New Faces Appear
In announcing the appointment,
Ickes declared pointedly he would
continue to be his own personnel
Officer
Two days after Hurja sat down
at his new desk in the Interior
Department, however, observers
noticed many new faces and an
increasing hustle of business.
Strangers were at desks in parcti-
cally every department of the
Public Works Administration and
Hurja walked about with a sleek,
well-satisfied grin.
Sees Applicants
He denies emphatically having
anything to do with personnel,
but observers notice a steady
stream of job hunters entering his
office and since coming over from
his r. F. C. post he has spent
much of his time in conference
with E. K. Burlew, budget Off
Ger.
Employees, seeing the hustle, are
waiting an explosion in IckeS' Of
flee and resumption of open war
fare between him and Farley over
patronage.

CONVENTION
Creation of Civil Service Court
of Appeals To Be Urged
at Kansas City

More than $50 delegates will
attend the Kansas City conven-
ton of the National Federation
Of Federal Employees, which meets
a week from Monday.
Delegates from this city have
been chosen, and the main body
will leave here a week from to-
day. A large number Of resolu
tions will be presented to the
convention, covering such vital
topics an extension Of classifica-
ton, establishment of a Civil
Service court of appeals, and ad-
justment of the present inequit'
able status of employees who are
partly paid in subsistence, quar-
ters and laundry.
Classification Urged
Classification is regarded by the
national officers Of the N. F. F
E. as the foundation of a sound
personnel system.
The N. F.. F. E. will reaffirm
it's position on this vital point,
it is expected. 1t was pointed
out here today that the proposal
for a Civil Service appellate body
is not new, the organization haV-
ing gone on record for it IN
former years.
The Governments attitude on
payment of employees who are
partly compensated in kind has
been severely criticized in many
quarters, and a number of ad-
ministrative officers have endeav-
ored to present the cases of such
employees in as favorable a light
as possible, in seeking permission
from the comptroller general to
adjust matters in their interest.
Deduction Is in Cash
Rulings on this point, however,
have been uniform; where en-
ployes are paid partly in kind, the
IS per cent deduction is made en-
tirely from the cash payments.
The only exceptions have been
where cash payments are insuffi-
cient to cover the IS per cent
cut, and in such cases cash pay
ments have been abolished. This
applies primarily to hospital
chaplains and certain other NOM
inal positions. In the case of stu
dent nurses, however, the impoSi-
ton of the Is per cent cut has
practically eliminated the cash
payment made to them.
The contention Of the N. F. F..
E. is that the pay cuts were based
on declining living costs, and that
Uncle Sam should charge his en-
ployes correspondingly less for
board and lodging when he fur
nishes those services.
