The Bureau of Standards occasionly
employs man well over 40 when spe-
cialist with national reputation is re-

the question never would arise, since
men generally enter the bureau in minor
positions soon after leaving college and
the higher places are filled by promo
ton from the ranks rather than by ex-
aminations.
When there Is vacancy which can
not easily be filled by promotion. semi-
official committee is appointed to go
over the available list. and age never is
a major factor considered. Then the
civil service examination becomes
mere formality. Some of the outstand-

Most of the higher positions are filled

Eliminates Experience.
'The age limit also means a loss to
industry. in that it eliminates workers
who have reached the age of RESPONSE
bility and who have 20 or 30 years
training in industrial work. Experience
and responsibility are essential in any
work where the quality of the product
Is concerned.
The American Federation OF Labor
is opposed to discriminating against
workers in industry on a basis of age,
as we'll as in other unfair discrimina-
tions. We also oppose the Govern
ment's setting any maximum wage for
applicants for employment. The en-
ployment or retention of workers should
be based upon competence to perform
work, and not on arbitrary age limits. "
In connection with the continuing
use of existing employment registers, it
was said at the commission that these
would be about exhausted before they
would be supplanted by the new reg
listers established under the lower age
several months hence. For instance, it
was pointed out, the commission certi-
fled more than 80 persons for employ

France, considering further default in

Brazil withheld payment of an in

ment dates also would be ignored.
At least it was added. Brazil will not
pay anything further until the French
decree regulating the disposition of

Thus Brazil took a second step in re-

the fire which yesterday afternoon
routed two families. including four chill
dren and two elderly women, from their
apartments. at 9l0 Twelfth street.
Fire Inspector Ray Roberts ofncially
laid the blame for the blaze on matches
in the hands of child after he had
questioned 4year-old Edward Loiselle,
who made himself something of a hero
when he awakened his father, Lester
L. Loiselle, in time to escape with
nothing more serious than a singed

in the house. however, told the Fire De-
partment official that the child had
been in his thirdfloor apartment while
his father. compositor on the Wash
ington Times, who works at night, was
sleeping.
Mr. Roberts. after determining that
the fire originated in the third-fioor
apartment. formally wrote Child play
ing with matches" as the cause of the
fire. He did not. however, enter any
particular child's name on the record.
Besides the little Loiselle child. others
forced to flee before the fire were Will

were carried to safety from their sec

his Office window in the Franklin

overlooks the same alley on which the
burned house abuts. and he telephoned

vented much greater damage. Besides
