MUSSOLINI'S AID
SOUGHT BY HITLER
Letter Is Believed to Have

ROME, November IA letter from
Chancellor Hitler of Germany handed
today to Premier Mussolini was be-
neved in well-informed circles to have
contained request that II Duce con-
woke an arms conference of the big
powers after next Sundays German
election.
The letter was presented by Hermann
Wilhelm Goering, Reich minister with
out portfolio, who arrived yesterday by
airplane.
1t was handed over during long con-
versation between the two concerned
with the next step to be taken to break
the disarmament deadlock.
Hitler Thanks MussoIini.
A communique issued following the
conversation stated that Hitler's letter
thanked Mussolini for the work he has
done In favor of an equitable regulation
of international relations and set forth
Germanys viewpoint In regard to dis
armament. Goering went into details
In outlining Germany's position.
The political observers expressed the
opinion that Hitler had asked II Duce
to take the initiative In convoking q
conference because he Is uneasy over the
present deadlock
It was noted, however, that the COM
munique was not finished with the
words which have become customary
in most similar announcements namely
that the statesmen had found them
selves in agreement. This was taken
to indicate Mussolini and Goering had
not reached an accord regarding dis
armament
Action Irritated ii Duce.
It is known that II Duce is personally
much irritated over Chancellor Hitler's
action in abandoning the disarmament
conference although he has advised all
to remain CAIN.
The communique read:
'The head of the government re-
ceived at Venezia Palace Minister Goer-
ing who consigned to him q letter In
which Chancellor Hitler thanked him
for the work he has done In favor oi
the equitable regulation Of international
relations, and explained the position as
sumed by the German government ir
reference to disarmament which Goer-
ing in detail illustrated In a long and
cordial conversation"

AGE LIMIT ruling
PARLEYS PLANNED
Miss Perkins Announces She
Will Confer With Heads
of Departments.

Secretary Of Labor Perkins is going
to ask department heads for their views
on the controversial employment age
limit set by the Civil Service Commits
sion.
The Secretary made this announce
ment today, following conference yes
terday with the members Of the COM
mission. She said she still was of the
opinion the lowered age limits were not
necessary.
Miss Perkins also disclosed she went
to the White House this morning and
left a report with President Roosevelt,
at whose instance she took up the
question with the Civil Service Com
MISSION. Later Chairman Harry B
Mitchell Of the commission was sum-
moned to the White House and said
when he left he probably would have
a statement to make later today.
Case of Typists Considered.
While the conversation yesterday, in
which the participants with the Secre-
tary were Mitchell. Commissioner
Lucille Foster McMillin and group
Of commission aides, took up the ques-
ton of lowered age limits generally, it
was indicated the greatest attention
was given to the case of typists-
stenographers, for which groups the
commission has lowered the entrance
age from so to 40 years.
Miss Perkins said she was advised by
the commissioners that personnel of
flcers were unanimously In favor of the
lowered age limit, but said she felt it
her duty" to 60 to the heads Of the
establishments themselves. At the same
time, however, the Secretary in response
to a question said she did not believe
personnel officers had acted arbitrarily
in recommending lower age limits, but
that they were guided by previous ex-
perience.
Two Per Cent Appointed.
The secretary explained in this con-
nection that the commissioners had ad-
vised her that in the past only 2 per
cent of those above 40 who took the
typist-stenographic examination had
received appointments. She said she
had asked the commission to ascertain
for her the percentage Of those over
this age who took the examinations.
Miss Perkins told interviewers that
while there Is certain Justification for
age limits in certain kinds OF work, >,
her feeling Is that the fixing OF age
limits at this time, when the need for
employment is so great, has very serious
social and economic implications.
She said she did not feel this side
OF the question had received sufficient
attention, although she is convinced of
the sincerity Of the commission in ap-
plying the restrictions.
Conferences to Be Informal.
Miss Perkins explained that in taking
up the matter with department heads
the conferences will be entirely informal
She did not go into details as to her
visit with President Roosevelt this morn
ing, saying only that she had taken
the matter up with him.
Incidentally, the time limit for ap-
plications for the stenographer-typ
examination, which caused the major
fight, expires tonight at midnight.

Republics, came to America today to
make the FIRST breach in that artificial
barrier which has for 16 years pre-
vented normal intercourse between the
peoples Of our two countries"

the United States and the Soviet would
bring about actual disarmament, and
he said he nourished the most sanguine
hopes as to the outcome of his mission.

garia after a hurried trip from Moscow,

cially welcomed by James G. Dunn, CHIEF

liner, Iitvinov stood on an upper deck
and waved his handkerchief. He was
smiling broadly.
Dunn greeted him in the ships smok-
ing room.
Ut is a pleasure to know you, Mr..
Lityinov," he said.
Litvinov, still smiling, extended his
hand and said. "how do you do"
BY this time, photographers were
perched on every table and chair in
the room and men requesting the envoy
TO smile and wave his hand. LitvinoV
wore a broad -brimmed black hat, a
plain blue tie, a white scarf, blue coat
and striped trousers. He is short and
stocky and he appears to be always

viii Cost Government
Additional Millions.

Director Robert Fechner has union
lied. at an additional cost of several
millions Of dollars to the Government
the construction work at approximately
1.466 Civilian Conservation Corps camps
In 46 States where work is being rushed
on $4,000 building projects for the
Winter quarters of the forest recruits.
This became known today when 1t de-
veloped that the director, acting under
authority of President Roosevelt, had
applied the principle of the Bacon
Davis prevailing wage" act to con-
struction work under the C. C. c. and
had established himself as the final
arbiter in all wage disputes involving
the 10000 union workmen engaged in
the field. While actual figures are un-
obtainable, hundreds of thousands Of
dollars-possibly millions--already have
been awarded in retroactive pay adjust
ments to union labor as a result Of de-
cisions rendered in more than 100 wage
disputes.
The Bacon-DaviS act, enacted by
Congress to apply to governmental
construction work, gives the Secretary
of Labor authority in all disputes to
determine the prevailing scale Of wages
to be paid on work in Washington and
other local communities This was the
authority sought by Director Fechuer
and obtained from the President in
constructing the emergency work
needed for the re-establishment of

He discovered that the leather covers
