Holding that Government employees
have no property interest in their
jobs, the District Court of Appeals
decided today that the courts have no
general supervising power over the
proceedings of the administrative de-
partments and cannot decide disputes
over working conditions.
1t was expected this decision would
result in a refusal by the courts to
pass upon reinstatement suits brought
by married workers dismissed from
Federal service under the Economy
act.
The opinion was rendered in
mandamus suit brought by William
Field, q Government Printing ONCE
proofreader, against Public Printer
Augustus E. Giegengack.
Field asked the court to compel the
public printer to grant him l412 days
Of earned leave, which had been taken
away under the economy act. He COM
tended the earned leave amounted to
q property right, which Congress can
neither take away. reduce nor suspend
without compensation after it has once
accrued.

there is no property right in public

Reported Ban on U. S. War

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, Switzerland, November
5.-The entire question OF Japan's
right to hold islands under mandate
in the Pacific Ocean, now that she
has resigned from the League of Ma
tions, was thrown into discussion to-
day as the League Mandate CommiS-
sion heard a report that United
States warships had been refused
the right to visit former German
islands now under japanese mandate.
According to League ofiicials, re-
ports exist that Japan, in violation
Of mandate regulations. Is secretly
constructing naval bases on these
islands. This concrete question, how
ever, did not arise at today's meeting.
Ito Is Informed.
What did happen was that q men,
Der of the commission told Nobubumi
Ito, the Japanese minister to Poland,
that he had read in a Stockholm
newspaper that an American battle
ship, transporting an American
scientific group which intended to
study an eclipse Of the sun. had been
denied admission to islands under
japanese mandate.
Ito answered that he had no knowl-
edge of the report and added that the
japanese government itself had or
ganized a scientific expedition to visit
the islands and had invited scientists
of other countries. Ito said he saw
no reason why the United States or
any other country should wish to
send scientists on a battleship when
Japan herself had organized a gen.
eral scientific expedition.
The Japanese diplomat added that
he would have to consult his gov
ernment concerning the particular
charge. but he assured the commits
sion that the islands were entirely
open to visitors.
Statement Withheld.
A report existed that Ito had ar
ranged to make a statement to the
commission that at the moment when
Japan's resignation from the League
takes effect-the two years notice
expires next year-Japan would con-
tinue to exercise her mandate in full
filment of the regulations as laid
down by the League of Nations
covenant.
Ito, however, informed the Asso-
ciated Press that he had no present
intention of making such declara-
ton, as Toxic has not authorized it.

Decision Is Unanimous Against

Evade Ansell Action.

BY the ASSOCIATED PreSs.
Senator Huey P. Long must stand
trial in a S5o0,0o0 libel suit resulting
from a speech he made in the Senate
The Supreme Court today disagreed
with the Senator's contention that be-
cause he was a member of Congress he
had constitutional immunity from
such legal action.
The case was brought by Samuel T.
Ansell, former Judge advocate general
Of the Army.
Bitterly Assails AnselL
In his speech the Senator bitterly
assailed Ansell. who had acted as
counsel for a Senate committee in
vestigating the election of Senator
John H. Overton of Louisiana, sup
ported by Long
Contending he had been injured by
the speech on February 2l, 1888, An
sell filed suit in the District of Colum-
bia Supreme Court.
Long challenged the validity of the
summons served on him, claiming i'm
punity as member of Congress.
The trial court and the District of
Columbia Court of Appeals both held
the Senator must stand trial
Long was quoted as telling the
Senate that Ansell had practically
forged his own appointment as Judge
advocate general" that Ansell had
been condemned by the Government
as thief, and a scoundrel and a
crook" and that he had been practi-
cally run out Of the Army for fraud 4"
Asserting that speech and its circu-
lation in the mails by Long was
libelous, defamatory, scandulous and
malicious. Ansell filed civil suit for
libel. asking s250,0OO compensatory
and s25o,0oo punitive damages.
Service Of summons in the suit was
obtained on Long in Washington. He
claimed immunity under article l Of
the Federal Constitution which pro-
vides members of Congress shall in
all cases except treason. felony and
breach of peace be privileged from
arrest during their attendance at the
sessions Of their respective Houses
and in going to and returning from
the same"
Emphasizing the Importance Of a
decision by the high court on the
exemption Of a member of Congress
from arrest" Long insisted the free
dom from arrest included also free
dom from service Of summons in a
civil suit.
Refuses to Quash.
Admitting there had been decisions
holding the immunity from arrest did
not apply to civil suits. Long declared
the weight of decisions was to the
contrary.
The District of Columbia Supreme
Court refused to quash the summons.
The Court of Appeals took the same
view, declaring Long was not exempt
from trial in civil suit during a ses-
sion Of Congress, and holding the
service of the summons on him to
be good.
1t said the allegations of the petit
ton were supported by sufficient evil
dence that the matter charged con-
stitutes libel
THE offense consists not in what
was said in the Senate, but in the
publication and circularizing of the
libelous documents" it added.
Justice Brandeis, in reading the
unanimous decision, said the question
had been frequently decided and there
was no valid ground for the objection
urged by Long.
