Hoover Appointees Are Still
In Charge of Many Bureaus
Facing Reorganization

Federal employees, faced with
the prospect of drastic budget
slashes and resulting long fur
loughs or dismissals, will be
largely at the mercy Of Republi.
can holdovers in the executive
departments when Staffs are cut
down.
Democratic appointments, ex'
cept of the highest offices, have
in many instances been delayed,
and in consequence, when deci'
sionS are made as to which en-
ployes shall stay and which shall
go, the matter will rest mainly
with the Hoover appointees, still
on the job.
Inasmuch as religious and po'
litical tests are specifically pro-
hibited in the Civil Service, this
may not matter particularly.
It is possible, however, that Re
publican holdovers might inter
pret efficiency ratings and other
legitimate tests somewhat differ
emily than Democrats and that
where dismiSsalS are a matter OF
direction, party considerations
might have some effect.
Reorganization plans are pro-
crossing rapidly, and soon will be
put before Congress. Projects are
divided into two groups, those
which require Congressional ap'
proval and those which do not.
The reorganization of the De-
partment of Commerce, and in
clusion therein of other Govern
ment agencies, is expected to save
between $15,000,0O0 and $20,00O,-
600, according to Secretary Daniel
G. Roper.
1t is expected to save about
100000 on normal Commerce
Department expenditures, and the
rest from consultations.

LEE SAYS STATE

NORKSPLANS
Maryland Will Duplicate Sum
1t Receives From U. S.
for Highway Work

Maryland stands ready to dupli-
cate the amount it receives from
the Federal Government under
the public works bill for road
construction, Major E. Brooke
Lee, member of the State Roads
Commission, said today.
The State is slated to receive
from three to four million dol;
lars under the terms of the bill
now in Congress, giving the State
from six to eight millions to
employ men, buy materials and
aid in relieving economic distress
in the State, he said. The pro-
posed sum from Federal aid rep
resents an increase Of 800 per
cent over last year.
Details of the road program
for the State have not yet been
worked out, although the com
mission is meeting twice weekly
now for that purpose. A COM
plete outline of suggested work
in Montgomery county has not
been presented by county author.
tiles, he added. Although Major
Lee will push Montgomery's al
lotment, the county will not be
given any preference, it was said.
One of the items on the pro.
gram is the extension Of the
East-West highway from Silver
Spring to Takoma Park via Phila-
delphia Avenue, and the widen
ing of Carroll Avenue, State
project, in Takoma Park.
Two paving projects totaEng
80 miles and leading into Balti-
more are among the major fea-
lures.

LAW CHANGES
! SEEN AS END
Of DRY ERA
Rep. PaImisano Sees Easing
! Of Rum Laws as Death
E. Blow to BootIeggerS

Regardless Of what action is
taken by. the States on the repeal
of the Eighteenth Amendment,
real, bottled-in-bond whisky will
be selling in washington at the
rate of 81 per pint or less within
the next IL months, in the
opinion of Representative Vincent
L. Palmisano DO, of Maryland,
author of the District beer bill.
Palmisano, discussing the Dis
trict liquor and beer situation
today, declared that the legaliz-
ing of 80 per cent beer and the
1iberalizing of the medicinal liquor
regulations spelled the death Of
prohibition whether repeal is rati-
fled or not.
Barrel Sale Urged
The Maryland Representative
said he saw no reason why drug
gists, under the new liberal
medicinal regulations, could not
buy whisky by the barrel and
dispense it just like other bulk
medicine at prices much lower
than those now charged.
He also predicted that, due to
the liberal medicinal liquor laws,
the bootlegger soon would be con-
signed to the limbo of forgotten
things, and that moonshine and
''rot-gut" beverages would give
way to the real article.
Palmisano takes great delight
in telling people that one time
in the past, during his rise from
an immigrant boy to a Repre-
sentative in the United States
Congress, he was a bartender.
That experience is still fresh in
his memory, and he believes that
pre-Volstead prices will prevail.
He said:
"There is naturally some
prOfiteering now, because there
is too little whisky and wine to
supply the need OccasiOned by
the demand under the liberal.
lied laws, which permit q physi-
clan to prescribe the amount he
believes necessary for his pa
tient.
Cites PrOfiteering
"The same thing happened
when beer first came back.
There was prOfiteering and
there still is.
II will admit now that / was
wrong some time ago when I
said the tax was too high. I:
still believe that the tax is too
high and must be lowered
within the next year, but now
that a beer shortage exists it is
just as well that the Govern
ment is getting a liberal cut,
since there are many people
who would charge just as
much-tax or no tax-because
the beverage is scarce.
Like whisky, beer, too, must
come down, and within six
months 1 fully expect to be able
to buy a real glass of beer for
q nickel.'
Palmisano declared that within
the next six months Baltimore
would have at least eight brew
cries, instead of two as at present.

Poultry Buyer Has
Adopted New Methods

Kennewick has gained a new
business during the past two
months which is becoming flour
ishing addition to the city's indus
tries. 1t is the Kennewick Poultry
Company, owned and operated by
Charles Briggs of Kennewick.
"Since we first started in Ken
newick We have had good business
and it is steadily increasing" Mr..
Briggs said.
The company specializes in pur-
chasing all kinds and varieties of
poultry in this district and then
"crate-fattening" them. This, Mr..
Briggs pointed out, makes them
doubly eatable and healthful.
Coming here in February from
La Grande, Oregon, Mr.. and Mrs.
Briggs and their two children,
Hazel and Dorothy, took up their
residence at III First Avenue E.
Two weeks ago Rosemary was
born to them.
Mr.. Briggs, a butcher and poul-
tryman by trade, has had many
years of experience in this line.

his, he came out to investigate.
The youths suddenly accosted,
took fright and the resident fired
a shot in the air to halt them.
Police were called and they learn
ed from the youths that they were
enroute to Idaho to try placer
mining.
They said they had driven until
they were tired, their battery was
down and their lights poor so they
had decided to pull up a side street
and sleep until daylight.
No evidence that they had taken
or were in the habit of taking gas
oline was found, so after one
youth had been required to pur-
chase drivers license, which
neither could show, they were per-
mitted to go on their way.

Old Dobbin Causes
Drivers Broken Arm

Fred Green received painful
broken right arm just above the
wrist joint Saturday morning while
hauling a load of hay. The end
pulled out of the single-tree in
such manner as to let the horses
go, and in the flash of an eye Mr..
Green was dragged from the load
and struck the ground breaking his
arm. He was lucky enough to
catch the substitute doctor in the
local office, and was able to have
the arm X-rayed and set at once.
The Sussex ranch carries a work
man industrial policy, but it does
not apply to members of the
ranch they found upon examine
ton, so Fred will not receive pay
from it on his painful enforced va
cation.
