House Committee Hears Pleas
To Place Postmasters
Under System

Legislation designed to take the
appointment of postmasters out
of politics was urged today by
witnesses before the House Civil
Service Committee.
Most of the testimony centered
on the proposal introduced by
Representative James Mead D0
of New York, chairman Of the
House Post office Committee.
He told the Civil Service Com
mittee his measure had been In
troduced at the direction of the
Postmaster General and has the
approval of the Administration.
EligibIes Limited
It would provide that, as post
master appointments expire after
January /, 1898, the vacancies
would be filled by the successful
candidates in competitive exami'
nations. The candidates would
have to be either former post.
masters who had had four years
experience in that capacity, ex'
ecutives who had had supervision
over at least $50 persons, or per
sons in the postal service.
Representative Paul Kval e
(F.L) of Minnesota, also strongly
indorsed legislation along this
line, suggesting that such q
method of selection should be
effected before 1888.
SirOvich Asks Change
Representative William I. Siro
vich CD of New York, a member
of the committee, advocated thai
all promotions in the postal serv
ice be through civil service exami
nations, but that they be stepped
up from grade to grade as is done
in the police and fire departments
He said he wanted to specify IL
the bill that none but postal em
ployes may be eligible for postmas
terships, so that it will become
real career service"
Harry B. Mitchell, chairman o.
the Civil Service Commission, in
dorsed the Mead bill in principle

The only development reported
by police was the assertion that
Harry (Rags) Thomas, of Wash
ington, held on an open charge,

She picks up fire extinguisher
and used it in a way that would
do the most good, just casually

temporary Inconsistencies.
AS my good old native son of
Florida, Arthur Brisbane, would
say: There is lesson in that"
Man is not as mighty as he
thinks he is. The gorilla is
mightier, and a woman with a

mightier than the man, but we

Sunday bound for Pittsburgh,
were said today to have made
forced landing at East Liverpool,
Ohio.
However, an appeal has been
made by Mrs. David Litman, 1927
Wintrip Ave-, Chicago, mother of
one of the boys, asking Hyatts-
vile police to aid in a search
for the plane believed grounded
somewhere in the AlleghanieS.
The fliers had not arrived at
Pittsburgh and no report has been
received by Bureau of Air Com
merce here today from them, de-
spite the fact that there are
beacons and emergency fields dot
ting the route to Pittsburgh.
Flight May Resume
Resumption of air transport
flights this afternoon was re-
garded as possible" by local air
line officials. Any flights which
are made will have to be above
the clouds because of the low cell
ing today, they explain. This
would preclude any possibility Of
the commercial pilots aiding in
the search for the lost youths.
Army flyers from Boiling Field
have been advised to watch for
the boys if lights are made over
the Washington-Dayton route to-
day.
Washington narrowly escaped
the tail end of a northeast gale
reported to be lashing the At
lantic coast. Storm warnings
have been posted along the At
lantic seaboard as ships remained
in port.
Planes Grounded
Inland dust storms grounded
planes today, while men fought
for their lives aboard a sinking
ship, the S. S. Badagry, in the
icy Atlantic.
The new disasters struck on the
heels of spring tornadoes which
spiraled through the South over
the weekend, with 81 persons be-
lieved to have perished.
Natures latest freak attack hit
Western and Eastern Seaboards
alike. From the Sacramento Val
ley in California came reports of
a death toll of nine persons when
a Southern Pacific freight train
collided with a motor railway car
of a section gang which had been
repairing damage caused by the
worst storm in years. Eight other
persons were known to be dead in
swollen rivers and traffic acci-
dents throughout the State while
another man was reported miss
ing.
Dust Storm In West
On the East Coast several men
in a small cabin cruiser adrift in
Long Island Sound were sought by
Coast Guard boats.
Meanwhile a pail of fine dust
was floating over New Mexico,
Colorado, Wyoming and parts of
Nebraska.

This mornings snow did not

mantles for cherry blossoms have
occurred before. On April 9, 1927,
snow fell here and on the same

falls of between one and two inches
occurred. In 1924 there was five

Washington on April /.

features connected with the pre-
war forces" Gen. Erich Luden-
dorff, wartime commander, was
told today at elaborate military
ceremonies staged to celebrate
his SEVENTEEN birthday.
The speaker was Defense Min
lister General Werner Won Blom'
berg, chosen by Chancellor Hitler
to bridge the gap of many years
between him and his former
superior in arms and comrade in
revolution.
Ludendorff responded with a
Hell. comrades!" a clear indica-
tion he is ready to acknowledge
the friendship extended by the
Nazi regime.
"PupiI' of General
Stating he considers himself a
pupil of Ludendorff, Blomberg
spoke for the armed forces of
the Reich. He said:
"Germany's armed forces
endeavOred to fill a creative
life within the frame imposed
upon them by the treaty of
Versailles.
"The army was decisively in
fIuenced before and during the
war by the soldier LudendOrff.
The new army also will be
radiated upon this spirit.
Through the law building
up our national defense, the
latter has assumed features
connected with our pre.war
army. Soldiers of the new
army see in LudendOrff the
great World War general under
whose leadership Germany de-
fled her world enemies.
"The honor guard here today
testifies to the army's deep
homage to this great soldier,
and sincerely wish you another
decade of life"
Honor Rejected
But, still the same stern, un.
compromising individualist he has
always been, udendorff rejected
new "honors" Nazi Germany
sought to heap upon him.
Despite formal denials, reports
persisted the Reichswehr ministry
had approached him with the Of
fer of a field marshalship, but
that he had declined on the
grounds that only the Kaiser may
give the baton to his deserving
generals.
Whether this dramatic explana.
ton is true or false, it is known
that Ludendorff realizes his posi-.
tior in wartime was tantamount
to that of chief commander of
the German army. Thus a field
marshalship or anything else, in
his view, would be an empty
honor
Says Nothing Decided
Asked concerning the reports,
Ludendorff replied through his
wife:
Nothing has been decided
about that yet"
Sentries stood on guard outside
Ludendorff' secluded villa as Won
Blomberg and Won Fritsch read
their prepared tributes. Then
Ludendorff, imposing in his uni,
form, inspected an honor guard
company of the Munich infantry,
which bore the colors of his for.
mer own thirty-ninth infantry
regiment from Dusseldorf.

casional showers, hundRe d S

Interesting to all was the account
given by Donald Wheeler of the estab-
| lishment of the Rhodes scholarships
by Cecil Rhodes whose fortune was
made in the diamond fields of Africa
and who hoped to strengthen the ties
! between the Anglo-Saxon races by his
scholarships and thus indirectly COM
bat the yellow peril. He continued
his talk by telling his audience of the
examinations he passed to win the
scholarship, the kind of education he
| will receive in England and some of
the history of Oxford.
| His guest, Joe Lukes, spoke briefly
| on two and half months he had
| spent in Russia last fall after he and
Donald had crossed the continent, he
in ten days and Donald in eight, by
hitch-hiking. AS background for his
study of Russia Lukes, Reed college
graduate, specialized in early American
history, a period in which the United
States poorly organized and unrecog-
nized, was comparable to present-day
Russia.
This talk was preceded by several
orchestra numbers. Mr. POnSat then
played "Silver Threads Among the
Gold" on his cornet. After this the
crowd stood with bowed heads for
thirty seconds while taps was played
