PUBLISHER ASKS
FULL PAY FOR
us. WORKERS

Referring to Government en-
ployes as forgotten men," George
Preston Marshall, publisher Of
The washington Times. yesterday
appealed for an extension of the
principles of the recovery program
to the personnel of the United
States Civil Service.
Mr.. Marshall, who spoke over
station WJSV at the request OF
the American Federation of Gov
eminent Employees, alluded to the
Government pay cut, the whole
sale dismissal of civil service en-
ployes to make way for the en-
ployment of political friends Of
the Administration, and other con-
ditions in the Federal service, de-
claring:
while other groups have been
advancing to what some Admin
istration leaders have described
as the more abundant life the
Government employe in the mass
has been subjected to curtailment
of almost every privilege which
goes to make up the decent Amer
lean standard of life"
Sees Disaster Ahead
Mr.. Marshall declared that the
extension of the patronage syS-
tenn and the consequent Sitting"
of the merit system in the last
two years is a condition which
may lead to ultimate disaster"
He further Endorsed the fedora
tons program to secure equal
pay for equal work." declaring
that the discrepancies on the Gov
eminent pay rolls are due to the
multiplicity Of the methods Of fix
ing pay.
Describing the present method OF
determining Government salaries
on the basis of the cost of living
as "fallacious. working to the dis
advantage Of Government en-
ployes, the publisher pledged his
aid not only for the restoration
of the remaining S per cent Of
Government salaries, but also for
boosting the general wage scale,
so that the Federal pay roll will
be IAN example to the forward
looking and decent employer"
Mr.. Marshall was introduced by
E. Claude Babcock, president of
the federation, as a firm friend
of all Government employees" Mr..
Babcock also referred TO The
Times taking a leading part" in
the campaign for betterment Of
working conditions among Gov
eminent employees, declaring that
the newspaper was particularly
prominent in bringing about re-
storation of 10 per cent Of the
Government salaries.

!. PLAN To CURB
ARMAMENT
BY International News Service

BY International News service
The United States today was
engaged in sounding out the gov
ernments of the principal world
powers on their willingness to en-
ter without delay a separate
agreement for the control Of the
manufacture of and traffic in
implements of war.
For IS years Europe has been
holding this country to blame for
failure to cooperate in an inter
national move to put the spotlight
of publicity on the arms traffic.
President Roosevelt has decided
to go Europe one better, and agree
not only to place the arms traffic
in the glare of publicity, but to
propose rigid control of the private
and governmental manufacture Of
all weapons Of warfare.
Would Give Publicity
The American proposal, if &C.
cepted, would give world publicity
to all orders received by arms
manufacturers, to all the war ma
terials they made, and to the ex.
port and import of those ma
terialS.
1t would also prohibit arms man.
ufacurers from storing UP mum.
tionS reserves. They would not
be able to manufacture a single
gun, or any other implement Of
warfare unless they first received
an order for it and were granted
a license by their respective gov.
ernments to manufacture it.
Every government adhering to
the treaty would be pledged to
send a full report on each license
it granted to an international
commission, which would make
the reports public, and also make
a statement at least once year
on the trend in the manufacture
of and traffic in arms.
Details Still Vague
Technical details of the plan
still are being worked out. These
include the problem of bringing
Germany into the agreement,
since that nation walked out on
the disarmament conference.
1t is believed this can be &C
complished by getting Germany's
assent in advance and then leav-
ing the agreement "open to the
adherence of other powers" Ger
many then could adhere without
actually returning to the disarm-
ament conference.

On Monday, the first friend
rode back in the train with the
complainingest man in town. The
latter gentleman held his head in
his hands and cried out that he
had lost $700 on that particular
day.
On Tuesday, the second friend
rode in with him. This time the
forlorn player walled loud and
long. He had lost, he mourned,
more than $1,000 that day.
On Wednesday, the last of the
trio sat beside the waller on the
train. He knew, of course, exactly
what this chap had said to his

day. And he asked him how he
had made out that day.

anyone down, and they hit him
20 times a day. It's always been
mystery to me that he didn't

too, if he hadn't enjoyed eating
there.
No use growing sentimental

Bill was the owner of the Tav.
ern restaurant, an eating place
of distinction. But the man was
far more than the average res
taurant proprietor. He was a
genial companion, an understand,
ing gentleman, helpful adviser
and-when you needed him most
"a thorough friend.
I'm not handing the man flow
ers because he's dead. That isn't
necessary in this case. Billy was,
I think, one of the bestowed men
in the Broadway world. So far
as I know, he had no enemies.
And when you can attain sue
cess on Broadway without max
ing enmies you are in the nature
of a genius.
The man did so many grand
things during his life that
wouldn't attempt to list any of
them here Sufficient to relate
that he helped some of our fore
most figures in the sporting
Journalistic and theatrical worlds
to enjoy their first measures of
success. If they remembered
when they reached the top he
told them to forget it. And if
they forgot to remember-well, it
was all in the game to Billy.
