CUT|NPATRONACE
PAY CLASS H|NTED
McCarI Tells Miss Perkins
Employment Service Rates
Should Be Uniform.

Controller General McCarl yesterday
dropped gentle hint to Secretary of
Labor Perkins that the per cent cut
be applied against pay of patronage
employees in the Employment Service,
after July /, although they are not
by law subject to the reduction.
Part of the agency is made up of
civil service employees transferred from
the former Employment Service, and
these have been subjected to the sue
ceSSive statutory cuts, while other ap-
pointees, named without regard to
civil service. have been held exempt by
the controller general under terms of
their employment.
With new pay scale becoming ef-
fective today. McCarl again was asked
if any reduction should be applied,
and he answered in the negative, but
amplified:
To secure greater uniformity in
the rates of compensation of employees
OF this bureau, there is suggested for
your consideration whether the ap-
pointment of all such employees should
not now be terminated and superseded
by new appointments fixing the COM
pensation at classification rates, less
the approved pay reduction"

with the expedition, Admiral Byrd con-
graduated the association on its effort
to maintain school standards through
the economic crisis. He also said he
was gratified that the Federal Gov
ernment has extended aid to the
schools. He sent his greetings to the
country's children.
Miss Jessie Gray Of Philadelphia,
| president of the association, responded
by lauding Byrd and his men and
comparing his exploits with the
achievements of the Nations teachers.
Devotion of Teachers.
1.-The devotion of our teachers has
reminded me of the training, dedica-
ton and cooperation of your group"
she said. Our difficulties have been
somewhat similar. There has been a
Polar plateau of icy indifference that
has been difficult to overcome. There
has been much rough shedding along
our course as you no doubt have heard.
Amidst bowling winds of criticism and
frozen assets, the teachers have held
the course of education true to its
goal"
DR.. Gilbert Grosvenor, president of
the National Geographic Society," also
responded to the Byrd message, calling
Byrd "our greatest living explorer"
During the broadcast from Little
America, the N. E. A. delegates were
allowed to cut in on classroom recita-
tions of the expeditions school.

| featured.

and second in command of the expe-
| dition, also spoke.
The annual meeting of the Ma
tional Council of Education, held Fri
day and Yesterday in conjunction with
the convention, was concluded yes
terday afternoon with the adoption
of resolutions.
One of these resolutions attacked
sharply the often-repeated proposal
that parents who wish to give school,
ing to their children beyond the ele-
mentary school level should be re-
quired to pay tuition charges.
"The adoption of this plan would
lower the level of educational fitness
for citizenship and would tend to
destroy the foundations upon which
our American democracy rests" it
stated.
The council added its support to
the campaign to remove Objectionable
elements from motion pictures and
the radio. 1t recommended that an
effort be started ito make these instru-
ments of modern science and art con-
tribute to the wholesome instruction
and enjoyment of both young and
old"
1t recommended that educators
make a determined fight for more
adequate financial support OF the
schools.
This afternoon the delegates will
hear an address by George Wharton
Pepper, former Senator from Penn
sylvania, during vesper services in the
Washington Cathedral.

Japanese by the Canadian fleet as

holding out with the Canadians for IS
cents. Two japanese boats were scut-
tied at that time.
