LEGAL BAT TIE
FOR JOBS HIT
BY BABCOCK
Protests High Fees Charged
900 Treasury Workers
Fighting for Pay

Sensational charges regarding
activities of certain legal interests
in connection with claims for pay
by 900 employees of the alcoholic
tax division of the Treasury De-
partment are expected to be
made tonight by E. Claude Bah
cock, president of the American
Federation of Government EN-
ployes, at the meeting Of the
District Federation of the A. F.
G. E. scheduled at $3.50 p. m. at
the Hamilton Hotel.
According to reports, purses are
being raised by New York and
Washington employees of the unit,
to obtain the services of lawyers
to represent the workers in suits
before the United States Court Of
Claims for the salaries which have
remained unpaid since December
l, when Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau gave division en-
ployes who had failed to pass GER
tain tests the choice of resigning
from the service or continuing
without remuneration.
High Fees Claimed
The gist of the Babcock attack,
it is said. will be that these legal
services have not been solicited by
the workers. but rather the legal
men sold their abilities to the en-
ployes, in one case at least TO the
tune of a $4,000 fee.
Mr.. Babcock is expected to ad-
vocate that the workers. rather
than relying on suits filed in
the Court of Claims should trust
their well-being to Secretary
Morgenthau and Attorney Gen.
eral Cummings.
Fights for Job
The brief in answer to the suit
of Samuel Cohen, tax unit job
applicant, now being prepared
by the A. F. G. E., will be ready
for submission shortly, it was
learned at A. F. G. E. head
quarters.
Mr.. Cohen has obtained a
court order for Treasury Secre-
tary Morgenthau to show cause
by January IS, why Mr.. Cohen,
successful in a special examina-
ton held some time ago for tax
unit jobs, should not be taken
into the employ of the Treasury
Department.

today paid tribute to the personal
and official qualities Of Ray
mond Sinclair, traffic bureau
policeman and arch-enemy OF
traffic-law violators, who died this
morning of injuries suffered when
his motorcycle was hit by an
automobile.
A kindly gesture typical Of Mr..
Sinclair despite his official firm
ness, also was revealed today
when it became known that on
Christmas Day he made the un-
usual request that all pending
traffic tickets he had given out
be dismissed as a Christmas gift
to the motorists involved, pro-
vided their records otherwise
were clear. The officers request
was granted.
Inspector L. I. H. Edwards, as
sistant superintendent Of police
in charge of personnel, said OF
Mr.. Sinclair:
81 have known Raymond Sim
clair ever since he came on the
force. He was as efficient as
any man we have; he was a man
who always did his duty thor
Oughly and impartially, arrest
ing the big ones as well as the
little ones"
Inspector B. A. Lamb, in charge
of the Traffic Bureau, said:
cray Sinclair was a highly ef-
ficient policeman who will be
greatly missed by my depart
ment. Many persons he arrested
later became his best friends.
Some Of those he arrested came
to see him last night. As a re-
suit Of his vast experience. he
learned that it paid to be cOur-
teOuS, and he was.
"When he made an arrest 1t
was because Of an actual viola
ton of the law, as he was not
the sort Of man to Pile up
charges as spite work. He was
commended by many persons
he had arrested"

BURDEN PLACED
UPON STATES
AND CITIES
February | Set As DeadIine;
Old Age Pension Law,
Administration Aim
BY International News Service


The first step in diminishing
the Federal Governments gigantic
relief load and passing part OF 1t
back to the States and municipali-
ties was taken today with the an
nouncement that approximately
1000, 900 persons are being
dropped from the Federal rolls.
These constitute so-called "un-
employables," persons who either
through age, infirmity or other
causes cannot be employed on Fed
eral projects.
New Policy Adopted
The policy has been adopted
that the Federal Government is
going to continue relief work on a
huge scale. but that it is up to the
States and municipalities to take
care of their own aged and in
firm who rate direct relief or the
dole.
The elimination of nearly
100000 persons from the Fed
eral rolls will reduce the Govern
ments present burden by about
20 per cent. February has been
set as the deadline for clearing
the rolls of all incapables. 1t is
estimated there are now approx
mately 10000. 900 persons on Fed
eral relief of one kind or another.
Pensions Planned
simultaneously, the Administra-
ton hopes to put through Con-
gress o Federal-State old-age pen
sion law, and to persuade "A State
legislatures that meet early in
the year to enact comparable leg
islation to take care OF the indi-
gent.
1t is expected the legislation will
be introduced early in the session
meeting Thursday. anu pushed to
speedy enactment. Progress in
the State legislatures is expected
to be slower.
In any event, the new policy
means the Federal Government is
going to take care of work relief,
and the States and local communi-
ties will have to take care Of di-
rect relief.

MOTHER TRAITS
TERMED BUNK
BY SCIENTIST
DR.. Riddle, Famed Biologist,
Says Pituitary Gland
to Blame for All
Rx LEIGH MATTESON

PITTSBURGH. Dec. % GN.SO
1t is a far cry from Broadway's
Tin Pan Alley to the Carnegie
Institution of Washington Station
for Experimental Evolution at
Cold Springs Harbor, L. but
the scientists at the one place have
informed the nanny singers al
the other place that the maternal
instinct they have long sentimen
talized is, well, very nearly the
bunk.
Depends On Gland
Politicians who also praise
motherliness and the home-mak
ing instinct likewise might ponder
the scientific announcement, made
today at the winter meeting of the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science.
In q sober, dignified and aus
tere manner, DR.. Oscar Riddle, one
Of the leading biological expert
menterS in the world, announced
that the maternal instinct is alb
sent or present in the female sex
only because a tiny gland in the
bottom of the skull pan functions
this way or that way.
This gland is the pituitary. 1t
is composed of two different kinds
Of tissue, front and back. The
front portion, which has been
studied extensively by DR.. Riddle
and his associates at the Carnegie
experimental station. produces five
known hormones, minute amounts
of chemicals that have vast in
fluence on human behavior and
health.
DR.. Riddle discovered one OF
these hormoneS, prolactin. three
years ago. He found that produc-
ton of the hormone by the gland
excited mammals to the produc
ton of milk.
In recent experiments he dis
covered the other function which
he announced today. He said:
The hOrmOne, prOlactin, Is
the sole cause of the appear
ance of the maternal instinct
in mankind, animals and birds,
such as pigeons"
Many Of the experiments were
conducted on birds and chickens.
These were chosen as experiment
tai subjects because the maternal
instincts of these creatures is very
pronounced and easily discernible.
The characteristic manner in
which hens. for instance, demon
strate the instinct is by clucking
and then by sitting in nests on
eggs.
Tests On Chickens
DR.. Riddle announced that by
the injection of prolactin into
non-laying hens he induced the
clucking symptoms. In hens then
laying eggs he was able to stop
the laying, and induce both the
clucking and brooding symptoms.
The most notable test was made
on two Cochin China roosters.
After two injections they began
to cluck like hens. DR.. Riddle
deduced from this that it would
be possible to induce maternal in
Stincts in men with similar injec-
tions. He declared:
This study has shown that .
particular hOrmOne plays a nee
esSary part in the appearance or
exhibition of the ancient Spe-
cieS-preServing instinct"
