NEW JOBS WIPE
CIVIL SERVICE
NAMES OFF
Third of Those on Register for
Unemployment Have Now
Been Erased
BY DUNCAN FORSYTH

Approximately onet-hird Of the
names on the Civil Service Com
MISSIONS unemployment register
have been removed because the
registrants have found new jobs
in the Government service, mostly
in the emergency organizations, it
was announced at the commits
sion today.
About 1000 names remain on
the list. If the Public Works
Administration expands in ac-
cordance with the forecast Of
Secretary Harold L. Ickes, who is
also public works administrator,
there will be openings for prac-
tically the entire number, for
Ickes expected that 1000 persons
would be needed to carry on the
work Of his organization.
Fly In Ointment
Unemployment has been at a
lower rate in the last two weeks,
only A names having been re-
moved from the rolls.
This, however, was to be ex-
pected, for the Public Works Ad-
ministration, last of the big units
to get under way, has not yet be-
gun to build up it's personnel,
while the other organizations have
pretty nearly completed theirs.
The principal fly in the reem-
ployment ointment seems to be
the likelihood that the NRA, in
particular, may begin to tear
down shortly. Brig. Gen. Hugh

NJ CARL BARS
U.S.PAY RAISE

Uncle Sam does not have to
pay his employees a minimum
wage, whatever that Blue Eagle
of the NRA may say.
A ruling of Comptroller Gen
eral j. R. McCarl, addressed to
the Governor of the Farm Credit
Administration, makes this clear,
in considering the cases of 81
employees of the Farm Credit unit
who were recently taken over
from the Department of Agri-
culture and who received less
than $14 a week net.
The Governor wished to in.
crease the salaries of these work
ers, if it could be done legally,
in accordance with the Presidents
recommendations that minimum
salaries be not less than $14 a
week. The employees include ten
messengers at 5000, % messengers
at $720 and five stenographers at
$840 a year.
The gist Of the ruling is that
the prohibition against admins
trative promotions applies in the
case of such employees. They
were, in the first place, former
employees Of the Crop Production
Loan Office, and as such subject
to the provisions Of the Economy
Act when they were transferred.
Further, there is nothing in the
National Industrial Recovery Act,
as McCarl held in a prior ruling,
to require application of the
minimum wage to Government
workers.
