CODE CASE GOES
To NEWS BOARD.
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
The wSpaper Industrial
Board, whose jurisdiction had
been challenged, last night was
called into the Dean S. Jennings
San Francisco Call-Bulletin case.
Announcement was made by
the National Industrial Recovery
Board that it will ask the news
paper board it's recommendations
on the case before taking action
on the request to remove the
Blue Eagle from the newspaper.
Thursday the National Labor
Board sent the case to the COM
pliance division of NRA with
recommendation the Blue Eagle
be taken away from the Call
Bulletin. This was on grounds
the newspaper had failed to re-
instate Jennings, a re-write man,
as ordered by the labor board.
This action was taken despite
protest of the newspaper and
backed generally by the press OF
the nation, that the Newspaper
Industrial Board and not the Ma
tional Labor Board should have
decided the merits of the con.
troverSy.

CHIEFS
OPTIMISTIC
FOR 1885

Sounding a note Of optimism for
the coming year, more than $50
executives Of the Hecht Company
gathered at a breakfast at the
Willard Hotel today.
The affair was given in their
honor by the heads Of the firm in
recognition Of their remarkable
feat in Shattering all sales records
this month and achieving a quota
of total sales of more than 81, ,500,-
900, 80 1-3 per cent higher than
for the same period last year.
Optimistic on Future
Congratulating them on their
splendid showing. Charles B. Dull
can, sr., vice president and general
merchandise manager, said:
"The past twelve months far
exceeded our proudeSt expecta-
tiOnS. And because Of the Opti-
mistic feeling on the part Of
the buying public, we are max
ing plans to buy more merchan.
disc and employ more people
than ever before In our history
during the coming year."
December is, he said, was the
biggest day the store had in 81
years, and because of the splendid
work of all employees, bonuses will
be presented to them.
DR.. Dulcan praised the Wash.
ington newspapers as the great
est and most powerful advertising
medium.
Guests of honor at the break
fast were George Preston Mar
shall, publisher of The Washing
ton Times, Ernest Johnston, ad'
vertising manager of the Wash
ington Herald; Eugene Mclean, OF
the Washington Post, and Samuel
H. Kaufman, of the Star.
Recovery Assured
Robert Nathan, Government
economist and former member Of
the Presidents committee on eco
nomic security, addressed the
gathering and declared there is
every sign of a constant business
recovery.
Washington will lead the
country in this, he said, pointing
to the fact that there are now
$4,000 Government employees, an
increase of 40 per cent in the
past year, adding a tremendous
sum to the buying power Of the
District.
The Federal Housing Program
will also be Of great assistance
to local conditions, he said
This year, Mr.. Nathan pointed
out, the number of business fail
ures dropped to the lowest mum
Der since 1920, giving evidence
| of the return of security.

Favors Editorial
To the Editor of The Times:
I would like to compliment
you on your excellent editorial
in Fridays Times on the Merit
System Advance.
AS a Government worker, ap-
pointed under Civil Service, I
am frank to admit that I resent
these people coming in without
having to take any examination
whatsoever simply because they
happen to know a Senator. And
the first time that anything
happens to upset them they
promptly inform you that III
tell my Senator"
I happen to know for a fact
that many of the workers en-
ployed in the new bureaus are
holding down positions paying
them as much as $3.50 a month.
and the majority are not even
typists or stenographers. In a
business office they would get
what they are worth, about SIS
a week. While employees who
have qualified under Civil SerV-
ice are getting the same salary
they started on, with no ap-
parent chance of a raise.
The merit system would ur1-
questionably put / stop to all
this. Let us hope it goes
through. B. 0.

Passive Resistance

To the Editor of The Times:
Passive resistance seems to be
the only way left to get results.
Traffic Director William A.
Van Duzer is playing into the
hands of the street car company
with traffic bans. The car COM
pany persists in calling it's pres
ent service and equipment ade'
quate and safe, and the District
Commissioners sit back and do
little about it.
There is, however, a way to
force the transit lines to give
better service, and that is by dis
regarding the obvious bait of a
81 pass and substitute for it
what is commonly known as the
walkers bus"
If citizens walked to work and
to places of amusement, instead
of using overcrowded street cars.
their health would improve, as
would their quality Of work.

On With the Show

To the Editor OF The Times:
I see where person has writ
ten to you praising the idea OF
broadcasting proceedings in Po-
lice Traffic Court and telling Of
what delightful entertainment
that will be for radio fans.
The way I feel. if justice is to
be converted into a sideshow.
why not 60 the whole hog?
why not put on the air those
moments when a person is be-
ing questioned by some tough
guy at police headquarters? Or
else make each traffic police
man carry with him a micro
phone and start broadcasting
every time he is giving a motor
ist an argument. And make
him broadcast both sides.
Whether it is the language Of a
belligerent policeman, or motor
ist, or both, or even if it is the
more silent fist treatment dur
ing the third degree-it should
be intensely fine entertainment.
Frankly, I cannot venture to
prophesy who would emerge as
the villain over the air, in these
melodramas of the law violator
versus the law upholder. Any
how, on with the show. B. B.
